Hi, my wife and me are in USA with tourist visa, I have a Health insurance in my country but it doesnt cover maternity in other countries, except my own country. My wife has problems with the baby, the doctor said (it was cover with my insurance) she can’t travel for a while, so there is a pregnancy insurance to help me cover the labwork and hospital expenses? I have job in my country so I can pay some expenses max, 3000 dls.
Thanx

You can’t get help here since you don’t live here
If you can pay $3,000 than you should be fine. Most hospitals have special arrangements for uninsured deliveries. But you have to make the arrangements BEFORE the delivery. Not after.
If you are in a city there are clinics that are free or have adjusted fees. I would look in the phonebook for pregnancy crisis centers. Or call a local hospital and ask if they can refer you. Best of luck.
I think you should travel back to your country if at all possible and get her the best medical help if she needs. You may be able to get free treatments in US but its not going to be of utmost quality and free patients are usually not priorities, even at the county hospitals.
I am saying this coz my husband is a physician and works for county hospital…. its sucks to see how uninsured ppl can’t get best possible treatments…. only thing they will do is to patch her up if something wrong happens,…. no real treatment. Best is to go back and get her treated in best possible manner or be just ready to pay out of pocket if u want good treatment for her in US.
Good luck
