jayfierce: While I understand your point I am merely stating facts, not an opinion, as to how it is that the price is as low as it is in some hospitals. Also of concern is the fact that it is only Nigeria that is being subjected to this new standard, other countries are applying for Visas without issues so it's not the discount that is bothering the VO's. And lastly, ALL hospitals will bill the complete price if patients ask for them. There have been patients that ask for the complete price at Doctoresparati and they have been issued the normal price or whatever price they are willing to pay above the discounted price. Basically, the patients are paying whatever they want in El Paso, either the discounted price or anything above that. |

Gosina: As with most clinics, payment is needed to receive any documentation. At times, the embassy calls to verify your information, cost, and appointment, if you are not enrolled, nobody can confirm what you are telling the officer. 1 Like |

Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 6 by jaykinde: 7:14pm On Feb 15, 2019 |
I agree but if you argue too much with them, they will also get offended. Both category of patients are billed say $22,000, but the self-pay is given a discount of roughly 75%. That $22,000 still appears on the bill for the self-pay patient making it look ridiculous. I understand that you've said that the insurance companies dont even pay the $22,000 that they are billed but only a fraction. However the US govt doesn't believe that we the self-pay are entitled to same fractional payment. Maybe because most of the insured are on a longer term contribution to the economy of the US than the short term visitors. I've told you before that the highest I got for using a type of medical service in the US was 50% for paying cash. Applying 50% to a bill of $22,000 would bring the cost of birthing to $11,000. This has been the average "LET MY PEOPLE GO" mark for Visa officers. I commend health care providers that are ready to give the non-discounted package to patients who request for it. I would have said a 25% discount was okay but I think the US is ramping up for full payment in the long run.[/quote] |

shanaka29: I also used Houston POE and Dr F in 2016. And yes they knew him although no sarcastic comment, I noticed they were familiar with his terms and conditions, so it is easy to caught you if you lied. They also had his numbers |

Good evening house.My friend sent a mail for Visa on Arrival but almost immediate she got a response as follows: MAIL WELL RECEIVED, YOU ARE KINDLY ADVISED TO VISIT THE NEAREST NIGERIA EMBASSY TO OBTAIN YOUR VISA. Please has anyone experienced this? what do you advice. |
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 6 by bookel: 8:39am On Feb 16, 2019 |
Hello please I need help. I was denied Visa on 11/2/19 reason because my hospital bill (6700)was too low. I feel very lost trying to get another bill. can some1 help me with details of hospital n doctors who can give a bill between 15k -20k. I really need this desperately so I can reapply. thank you. |
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 6 by Greatg0809: 9:11am On Feb 16, 2019 |
bookel:The 6700 is it for your previous baby or incoming |
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 6 by OmoBendel24: 9:21am On Feb 16, 2019 |
Starmate: Lolz! A lot of panic from your end this seems. Well, what was the visa issued for in the first and what was it first used for by you? Did you declare childbirth? Did you not pay? What was your bill like? This last one has become much more important in recent times. Begin to calculate your “safety” from your answer the above questions, and the category of “wahala” to expect. Those of us who didn’t use our visas for birthing and those who did despite meeting all that is required can actually not boldly just beat their chest for a smooth renewal sef without some minutest level of panic ![]() You see? All the best.... |

Greatg0809: I pray I get by his grace. It is still undergoing administrative processing. Yes, I attended my interview. Every document you can think of was requested. The VO said he needed to see the charges from the hospital. It seems the discount given from the hospital is raising an eyebrow. 1 Like |
