Frequently asked questions
When does maternity coverage start after I buy a plan?
Most insurers apply a waiting period—commonly 6 to 12 months—before maternity benefits become payable. We’ll verify the exact waiting period for each plan during comparison.
Are prenatal checkups and ultrasounds covered?
Coverage varies by plan. Some policies include antenatal care and routine scans up to a specified limit, while others only cover delivery-related costs. We compare inclusions and limits for you.
Can I add a newborn to the policy after birth?
Yes. Insurers generally allow newborns to be added within a specified timeframe after birth. We assist with registration and claims for initial newborn care.
What happens if I have a pre-existing pregnancy complication?
Pre-existing conditions and pregnancy complications are assessed case-by-case. We can arrange pre-existing condition guidance and help identify plans with better coverage for known issues.
Do corporate plans cover maternity differently than individual plans?
Corporate group plans may negotiate broader maternity benefits or different waiting periods. We support employers and employees with policy updates and benefit comparisons.
