Giving birth costs

[Atefeh.chp]

hi every body
Is there anyone have some information about the costs of giving birth in canada as a visitor (with visitory visa)?
And is there any insurrance that support the costs?
What about the cost of sonography and doktor visits and checkups in last two month of pregnancy?

Don’t pay attention to the misspelts and grammar mistakes
Tnx

I would budget $10K to cover the costs of the birth and test/visits to the doctor before the birth. However the costs can obviously be a great deal higher if there are any complications with the birth.

Some insurance providers will cover some of the costs related to pregnancy - but only if the insurance is purchased before you are pregnant. If you are already pregnant, no insurance company will cover you.

Also note that if you arrive in Canada visibly pregnant, there's always some possibility you may be refused entry to Canada and have to return home.

Just to add, if there are any complications, it can get very expensive....very quickly!

You will have to pay all the costs yourself.
