Maternity FAQs

Does Medi-Share share in alternative birth practices? 
To be eligible, delivery must be performed by one of the following: a Medical Doctor, a Doctor of Osteopathy or a Midwife who is properly licensed, certified, and registered in the state of delivery as required by state law. In the absence of state law requirement, Medi-Share requires at least a minimum of a North American Registry of Midwives credential. 
What if my pregnancy exceeds $125,000?

Our Extra Blessings program is designed to help members with expenses that are ineligible for sharing, either because they exceed the sharing limits, or because they are related to pre-existing conditions that would have otherwise been eligible for sharing.

There are also programs available to help with maternity expenses, and our maternity team will assist members in pursuing these programs.

Do I have to use an in-network provider for my maternity?

No, but PHCS providers do offer members significant savings on their care.
