You don’t get a choice with your insurance.
Once you’ve chosen your OB/GYN, usually he/she has hospital privileges at 1 hospital near by, not 2. You can make a choice now to deliver at either hospital but when you’re in labor, you must go to the hospital your OB has privledges at.
Your insurance may not pay for your delivery if you go to the wrong hospital. OR you could end up being transported in the midst of labor to the right one.
When I had my son 13 years ago, my OB had privledges at 4 hospitals. I was lucky & got to shop around, so to speak, LOL. By the time my son was born, he was with one hospital, the one I’d chosen to deliver at. I’d also attended child birth classes at this hospital so it was easy for me to decide.
