Travel / Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 6 by Motherof1: 1:16am On Sep 06, 2019
Well I feel all these should be addressed to the hospitals, because. I was told how much it all cost, before birth and before they even got my address. Like I paid before I gave birth.


TWoods:


The VO was right. If the average American paid $6400 for childbirth, healthcare costs would not be the massive problem it is today. My wife got a less than 30 minute non invasive procedure that did not require her to be anaesthesized two weeks ago, it cost us over $2100.

The truth is you’re paying costs usually reserved for the poor US citizens. That’s why she asked for the contact address you claimed when your son was born.

I went for my interview today! The v.o was so mean, she had denied every one before me. So when it was my turn, she had a straight face one, and requests my passport.? She asked my reason for going to the US, I said vacation and to take my son for to the(she cuts me off but I continued anyways) hospital for medical appointment.
Then she asks why he wasn’t applying for the vusa with me. I said he is a US Citizen. Then she shook her head. She asked how much I paid in the hospital, I told her $6400( hospital and obgyn) She asked if I made change of intent. I told her I had sent the email out, (because at that time, that was what we had to do)
I brought out the receipts and gave her. She went through it, and asked my I received a discount. And I said I paid what I was asked to pay. Because I paid my delivery fees even before my delivery. So she said no, I had received a discount. Then asked for my son’s birth certificate, and asks me to to read the address on it, I did. Apparently the address says Texas. She said you see, you said you reside in Texas, so you received a discount. I insisted that I didn’t, and showed her the document for early self Pay patients, the hospital had asked me to sign. She didn’t go through it. She Just kept her straight face whilst drinking her tea. Then she asked if health care was so cheap why do you think Americans would complain? At this point I go tired. She handed me the yellow paper, as well as my passports and we made eye contact, then I walked away. She neither asked for any other documents, nor asked any other question.

I felt really bad, never been denied any visa.
I kept farting silently because I was nervous.���

Hello good evening!!!
Please I need help!!!
In February 2017, I applied for a b1/b2 visa with my brother. We were supposed to travel in April. But we couldn’t. Then in October 2017 I got pregnant. I decided to use my visa to give birth. So I left for the states in april. Then in May, my brother came to the US with my mum via Chicago. There the Homeland security officer asked him about me, and why I’m still in the US. after long interrogations they checked him mums phone, because cane back and she waited for him, even though she had been stamped and they saw conversations between she and her friend, talking about if my brother was going to stay back in the states or not. Oh well their visas got revoked.
Well I had my baby there and paid the hospital bill. Of $4600. Doctors fee of $2900 and $685 for circumcision. Some months after, my friend got a letter that they refunded the $685 back to my dollar card in Nigeria.? I got my zero balance, but I still got another account the hospital had created, with an outstanding of $690. I’ve called to know why and they are telling me all sorts. Anyway, i intended going to the hospital when I go back to know what they are charging me for, even after I got reimbursed.
Anyway I did a Dropbox in December, eve though my visa was to expire in February. I did that because I wanted to travel towards the end of February, for my baby to see his doctor, because he’s been having respiratory issues.
Well I got called for interview in January. I scheduled a date and it was in April. I travelled out of the country(not the USA), and came back a month later, to attend my interview.
On the day of my interview, they said my name did not pop on the system. They transferred me to the officer who had a computer. When he checked, he said the embassy had rescheduled my appointment and if had passed(March 23). And I had to reschedule. I got home and called the embassy, to know how I was going To do it. They said they will unlock the receipt and I can use that same one.
They did and I got appointment for August. But now, my sons nose is still disturbing him. I just requested a letter for the hospital in the states and in Nigeria, so I can submit to the embassy an apply for an expedited appointment interview. Because he already had scheduled appointment with the doctor. Hopefully they grant me.
Well I just want to know if there’s anything anyone will advice I do or carry. Please i will really appreciate the help!!
God bless
