Did you know that when you go see your Ob doctor during your pregnancy your not suppose to pay a copay? They end up billing it at the end to your insurace. And by the end i mean after you deliver. Also did you know that your doctor does not get paid. All that care he/she provided for you gets paid to the hospital you delivered at, not the doctor that you may have called millios of times as well as been taken care of for all those months. So if you see a doctor at a major hospital, please make sure you go there for delivery. I know sometimes we dont always make it there, especially in a place with many hospitals. But do try to report to the hospital where your doctor works for. So he/she can be paid for all that hard work. I know its a Shocker huh! And you probably thought man, i pay them to take care of me, but they are not paid yet! And might not get paid either.

Isn't it ridicuous. And some people want to go to one place for their OB care, but want to deliver elsewhere. How unfair it is since all that work is done at one place and they won't get jack!
