I just sent a letter to australian unity asking what cover they would give me for a
home birth. They give about $640 for a private midwife in hospital birth situation
(some for prenantal, some for post and a small fee for the birth). They give $2000 for
a homebirth if you organise it with them
HBF in Western Australia refund $1400 for a homebirth or a private
midwife in a public hospital.

babies head was out - as it acts as a cushion for the mother and
baby.
Also based on Michle Odent's theory about
waterbirth's why the baby does not breathe under
We are
with Defence Health and they cover midwifery, so many pre and post natal visits
and X amount for birth, cant remember the actual payout though. My understanding
is that its not uncommon for the midwife to arrange the costs on paper so as to
