How to get health insurance for my unborn daughter?

Jennifer R asked:


I’m 22. I have health insurance coverage under my parents (it’s just better insurance than I could get on my own, that’s why I’ve kept it). However, I am pregnant and need to find insurance for my daughter for when she’s born. Under my current insurance, I am covered but she is not.

My question is, what should I do? I got an application for Medicaid but will it cover her before she is born, even though I don’t need insurance? Any advice?

    Medicaid will cover from conception, I am almost certain.

    You cannot get coverage for her, before she is born. Medicaid, if you qualify, will possibly go back and cover her, if you apply for it soon enough.

    But likely, you’ll be out of pocket for her birth expenses, unless you use a birthing center or a homebirth, which won’t charge for the BABY.
