Belly to Cradle, LLC DBA BloomWell invests thorough time and consideration into our client care. We are a specialty service, and considered “out-of-network” with all insurance companies. We will obtain insurance verification in order to utilize your insurance for as many covered costs as possible--such as labs and ultrasounds. However, we DO NOT work directly with any insurance company at this time. Tricare typically reimburses 40-60% of the total fees after payment is made in full AND you have had your baby in our center.  Once your baby is born, we can provide a detailed invoice/receipt for your use if you would like to pursue insurance reimbursement. If you are using a medical co-op, documentation for your care can be supplied so that you can confirm payment ahead of time from your co-op provider.

Birth Center Fees

 Payment plans and financing options are available for the total fee.
Your total fee for birth will be the applicable Midwifery Fee PLUS applicable Facility Fee.
