Prenatal Clients with Insurance
The Birth Center of Gainesville accepts most common insurances with
maternity coverage.
Most plans, with the exception of Medicaid, will have a client
responsibility and/or co-pay amount that is set by the insurance
company and may vary greatly between companies and plans. As part of
our administrative services, we will contact your insurance company to
find out what your financial responsibility will be and we will work
with you to establish a pay-over-time plan as needed.

Well-Woman
Clients
The Birth Center accepts most common insurance for well-woman (gynecological) care
visits. Our ARNP, Maryann Smith, is the current provider of this
service.
Most clients will have a standard co-pay such as is paid at her primary
care physician's office. For clients without insurance, the typical
annual gynecological exam at the Birth Center costs approximately $150
