Hi! spent 180k but its all in na- hospital fee, pf of pedia, ob, and anes. i spent 2 nights at the HRPU, which is a bit more expensive than the standard room. Plus 2 days of meds to induce i think is magkano din. will you be giving birth at global? if so, theres a room at the hrpu that has an en suite bathroom ( most of them wala), try to request for that para you and hubby will be comfy in case your baby will take its time. its also bigger than the others.

good luck and let us know how it goes!

Hi! Do you still have the breakdown of your hospital and professional fees? Kahit yunng delivery cost, baby supplies and equipment, and room & board lang for the hospital fees tapos OB fee, Anaesthesiologist fee, and Pedia fee for the professional fees. I'm also planning on giving birth at SLMC-BGC. My EDD is around the last week of April. Gusto ko sana malaman how close the estimated cost is sa actual cost para maka-prepare ng mabuti. Thank you!

We had ocular again yesterday sa Global, hindi ko alam if sa small, regular private, hrpu or birthing kami haha pero OB said magprepare around 180K for CS, though mukha naman daw normal ako, para lang sure.. My OB is Dr. Guinto.. 27 weeks, yay!

Mas mahal ba talaga sa Asian? Mas malapit kasi kami doon, parang naghihint si hubby and family na doon na lang, mas gusto ko lang talaga sa St. Luke's hehe

^ I spent around 129k for elective CS in St luke's QC wala casing available na private rooms in global when I gave birth

[annamarie88]

^ang mahal ba ng quote sakin sis? Hehe my golly! Sana if ever ma CS ako mga 100-130k lang din ako.

[bagaholic_chewy]

Ako naman, cs din. 155k net of Philhealth. Kasama na ang pf - 60k OB, 28k anes, 12k (yata) pedia... hrpu during labor then regular private room for 3 days. Slmc-qc.

[ainge88]

Thanks for the feedback mga sis! If ever CS ulet ako baka ganun yung target namin i set aside. mga 130k to 160k

@bagaholic_chewy sis, irerequest mo lang ba kay OB na sa HRPU ka? or pag na admit ka saka ka lang magsasabi na sa HRPU ka ilalagay? Hindi naman ako high risk pero sabi nila pwede daw magrequest. Magkano rin pala rates ng HRPU? Thank you! 

[sachism]

sa panganay ko sis, dun ko na sinabi sa DR na sa HRPU ako kahit d naman pa na High Risk. Kasi ang feedback nga pwede sumama ang hubby at relatives tsaka may privacy kahit papano sa HRPU while on labor. 5kish ata ang HRPU sa SLMC QC?

I just gave birth yesterday here sa Global via repeat CS. Operation went smooth and superb experience naman talaga. My OB is Dra. Jing Fernandez. Hubby is very much satisfied lalo na kasama sya sa OR, gusto na daw nya ulit ulitin agad agad lol overall super okay. Tomorrow pa ko madidischarge been here since Wed so total of 4 days ako.

[bagaholic_chewy]

^^^ di rin ako high-risk. Napag-usapan na namin with OB beforehand kasi gusto ko kasama all throughout si hubby. So nilagay nya dun sa admitting form. Tsaka sinabi ko din sa DR nung papa-admit na kami. 5k ang bayad, for up to 24hrs yata yung rate na yun.

Pwede din daw HRPU during recovery pero per hour na ang bayad. Suggest ni OB sa regular recovery room na lang kasi parang sayang ang bayad for HRPU, halos tulog lang naman daw during recovery.

^ Congrats, sis. Kay Doc Jing din ako. We love her.

[sachism]

^ agree. regular recovery room lang din ako last time and tulog nga naman then pagkagising ko, talagang pinilit ko na magalaw legs ko para madala nako sa room 

mahal ba ang per hour sa HRPU during recovery?

[annamarie88]

Sis bagaholic sino OB mo? Around ganyan din kasi sa OB, Anaes & Pedia eh mas mataas lang konti..

[bagaholic_chewy]

^ Dr. Jing Fernandez.

[annamarie88]

^thanks sis

[nicoletta]

^ang mahal ba ng quote sakin sis? Hehe my golly! Sana if ever ma CS ako mga 100-130k lang din ako.

Initial quote for me was around that much din.  It might be because I got a smaller room, kaya professional fees went down.  They base the PFs kasi sa size ng room, so you take it from there.

[LGV]

Thanks sis! Kame din super satisfied kay Doc Jing napakabait at may concern talaga sya. Even financial matters sya pa magsasuggest para mas makamura.

[simplhizity]

Hi mga sis. Ask ko lang sino na dito nanganak sa global under dra.aguilar? Sya kasi ob ko and ang afilliated lang na hosp with her is pgh and slmc-global. Gusto ko lang sana magkaidea magkano inaabot ng bill nya sa st.luke's para may idea kami. Tia.

[ainge88]

ahh so fixed price pala yung HRPU. Akala ko per hour yung bayad so pwede na pala na dun ako dumiretso once nagstart na yung labor ko para mamonitor na rin si baby since im undergoing trial of labor muna.

Thank you for the feedback mga sis! I'll doscuss with OB when the time comes hehe

[swiTsuplada]

Any feedback for Dra. Elsie Pascua? Namimili pa kasi ako ng OB right now. Siya kasi ang umopera sa 'kin three years ago so hindi ko pa siya na-try for pregnancy. Thanks in advance mga sis.

[nicoletta]

I'm with Gergen Lazaro Dizon, the one you girls are saying na recovery room, yan ba yung side to side yung bed?  If so, I didn't get to sleep the entire time.  As in I was just awake waiting for my legs to move so I can go up to my room
