Re: [ozmidwifery] Fund rebates
Grrr too. This is totally unacceptable and bloody outrageous - how can we change this???!! Kristin Naturopath CBE Dear Kristin and all You can:-)) Join MC cause we make representations like this all the time. In fact I will raising this issue with the Shadow Hlth Mins in a couple of weeks. Write letters to your local/state papers asking why the total lack of competition and care that is not based on sound health outcomes etc etc Inform all your CBE clients that PHI (Priv Hlth Ins) is totally discriminatory and does not allow choice (ie no midwifery care). It will fund joggers and aromatheraphy and yet the most important decision for a couple they are forced to use a priv obs at a priv hosp and by that very fact significantly increase their chance of unnecessary surgery and resultant morbidity. Support anyone who has PHI who wants a mid choice to approach their fund and request parity for maternity care (ie same costs covered for M/w¹s as Obs). When as they no doubt will say no. Take it further to the Private Health Insurance Ombudsman His details are Mr John Powlay and this is from their site www.phio.org.au You can raise a complaint with us by phone, email, fax or letter. Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Private Health Insurance Ombudsman Level 7, 362 Kent Street SYDNEY NSW 2000 Complaints Hotline:1800 640 695 Telephone: (02) 8235 8777 Facsimile: (02) 8235 8778 Points to make (which I know you already know!!) *There are more babies born each year than any other health procedure. *In private health insurance there is absolutely no competition, it is totally medically dominated. *It is also an area that is crippling health funds (so much so that smaller funds actually tell you which Obstetrician you can see as they can only afford some). *Some funds are looking at providing a midwifery benefit (as they recognise the huge cost saving) but where is the Government support?? Still no assistance with insurance. With insurance all funds could offer choice (that would also double as a HUGE cost saver). Importantly it would also make PHI a viable option for rural consumers (currently as most rural areas do not have private Obs or even Obs there is no point joining up). This shows what a giant waste of money PHI is in its current form. Hope this helps

Re: [ozmidwifery] Fund rebates
NO there is no variation, this discussion is centred around MEDICARE...the Govt refund for fees charged. All women should be entitled to midwifery care to be recompensed for an agreed scheduled fee. There is no recognition of a registered midwife in IP being qualified to provide the specialised care for maternity clients for which she has been trained. Some private health funds recomp up to $2000 of a MIPP fee, it's up to the consumer to shop around for the best deal here as Justine pointed out in a previous email.

RE: [ozmidwifery] Breech Ob in S.A.
I’m not recommending anyone per say, because as we all know, the difference between the philosophies of midwives and private ob’s are often great…however, it is worth looking at Chris Wilkinson and Brian Peat at the Women’s and Childrens, and I know Basil Antonas does vaginal breeches for a second baby…not sure of any others that would put themselves out there with that kind of stuff, there are a couple of Ob’s at Burnside who recommend women to hire birthing pools (there are no baths there in their labour ward) – Karen Chandler and Tracey Bradbury, but I’ve never met either of them. They are both of the opinion that women can ‘wallow’ in labour, but not birth in water…not sure what the midwives that work there think about that. Not sure if that’s helpful, but a few names are better than none I suppose…something to go on with and start researching…of course, if she wants something better than that she should be looking for a practitioner who regularly attends waterbirths, and is comfortable with her birthing any which way she pleases – perhaps a private midwife??

Re: [ozmidwifery] Breech Ob in S.A.
I think your friend would probably be safer with an elective c/s than attempting a breech birth in the private system. it is unlikely to be physiological but will be medically managed which is just not safe. If she is seriously considering a breech birth it's important that the practitioner is confident in breech birth and physiological labour. In both the public and private system the care is undertaken by midwives and the breech extracted by an Ob, this is not something I would recommend.
