Medical costs are what they are. My wife worked in the public hospital and she did not want to have the baby there.
The lady at the front desk at the obstetrician blamed labor party for the $1800 fee. I think she said it used to be closer to $900? It went up a heap though and she was blaming the government. That cost is on top of private health cover and you get a couple of hundred back. Secures your own room at the private hospital.
