Subsidized or Private

Hi mommas I'm currently 17 weeks and is reading a lot on the cost of giving birth, just to prepare more.. Can anyone share with me what are the pros and cons of private or subsidized. Really curious and would like to consider my options properly. #FTM #pleasehelp

The main difference is being able to have the same gynae/obgyn throughout your prenatal appointments and having him/her deliver your baby (unless in almost-rare circumstance when he/she is unable to arrive on time and the on-call doc will do it) when you’re a private patient. As a subsidised patient, you’re not able to choose your doc but the fees are heavily subsidised, at least half of what private patients pay for. Have a healthy pregnancy mommy!
