Money Matters in Occupational Therapy

Ep 8. Birthday, Birth Story, and Bills

Listen Later

This is a very special episode for a whole lot of reasons. First, it’s my birthday! So I figured what better way to kick off my birthday than sharing about my own baby’s birth day! That’s right, today on the podcast I’m finally sharing my birth story. I personally love to hear other mama’s birth stories because they’re all so incredibly unique and different and I just find it fascinating to hear about. So, if you’re a mama and love hearing birth stories, this one’s for you. But even if you’re not, I think you’ll still enjoy this episode because I’m also going to be talking about exactly how much my baby’s birth cost us, how much we paid out of pocket, and a few other finance things when it comes to having a baby. And finally, this is a super special episode, because I have a pretty big announcement. I’ve been working on a top secret project behind the scenes and today’s the day where I get to share all about it

In today’s show, we’re chatting about:

  • Why my birthday is so special this year
  • My birth story & labor timeline 
  • Why we chose to have a High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP)
  • The triple tax advantage of a Health Savings Account (HSA)
  • The total cost of my baby's birth
  • How much of our hospital bill was covered by insurance
  • My biggest tips for preparing to cover the cost of a hospital birth 
  • Announcing the first ever...
