Роды в родильном центре
A birth center is a healthcare facility for childbirth that focuses on a midwifery model of care. Birth centers offer a home-like environment with more medical support than a home birth but less intervention than a hospital. Costs fall between home birth and hospital delivery.
Кесарево сечение
A cesarean section (C-section) is a surgical procedure to deliver a baby through incisions in the abdomen and uterus. It may be planned or performed as an emergency procedure. Costs are higher than vaginal delivery due to the surgical nature and longer hospital stay (typically 3-4 days).
Эпидуральная анестезия
An epidural is a regional anesthesia administered during labor to reduce pain. An anesthesiologist injects medication into the epidural space near the spinal cord, providing pain relief while allowing the mother to remain awake and alert during delivery.
Пренатальный генетический скрининг
Prenatal genetic screening tests assess the risk of chromosomal abnormalities and genetic conditions in the developing fetus. Tests may include first-trimester screening, cell-free DNA testing (NIPT), and carrier screening panels.
Домашние роды
A home birth is a planned delivery that takes place in the mother's home, typically attended by a certified midwife. Costs include prenatal care, birth supplies, midwife fees, and postpartum visits. Home births are the most affordable option but are recommended only for low-risk pregnancies.
Роды с акушеркой
A midwife-assisted birth involves care from a certified nurse-midwife (CNM) or certified professional midwife (CPM). Midwifery care typically includes prenatal visits, labor and delivery support, and postpartum care. This option is generally less expensive than physician-attended hospital births.
Реанимация новорожденных
The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) provides specialized medical care for premature or critically ill newborns. Costs are per day and include 24-hour monitoring, specialized equipment, nursing care, and physician services. Average NICU stays range from a few days to several months.
Послеродовой уход
Postpartum care includes follow-up medical visits and support in the weeks following childbirth. Services cover physical recovery assessment, mental health screening, breastfeeding support, and newborn care guidance.
Дородовое наблюдение
Prenatal care encompasses all routine medical visits and screenings during pregnancy, including monthly check-ups, lab work, ultrasounds, and maternal health monitoring from confirmation of pregnancy through delivery.
Вагинальные роды
A vaginal delivery is the most common type of childbirth, where the baby is born through the birth canal. Costs include prenatal care, labor and delivery, hospital stay (typically 1-2 days), and postpartum care. Complications may increase the total cost significantly.
