Like doctor visits and medical expences, would my insurance have to know?

Typically if you are pregnant and have medical insurance, your medical insurance should cover your medical expenses. If you do not have insurance, the agency will discuss the options with you. In some situations, adoptive parents could pay or contribute to medical expenses, but it is very important that you discuss this with an attorney or adoption agency as most states have rules and regulations with regards money exchanging hands in adoption procedures with bio and adoptive parents.
Good luck to you.

No, it doesn't. The agency will provide services to cover your medical and legal bills, and can also help with your daily living expenses.
You can use your insurance, get emergency Medicaid just for the pregnancy, or the agency can assist with you bills. Your insurance company will likely know, but you can ask that it be confidential on record. You can also choose to not involve the adoption information at the hospital, but rather place the baby with the agency after you are discharged, as you are leaving the hospital, if you choose to.
The adoption will not cost you anything. The adoptive parents have to pay the agency a fee to cover all your expenses, etc.

If you have the means to pay for your own maternity care via insurance or your state's maternity Medicaid you should do so.
Having expenses paid by the adoptive family is a form of self coercion as you may feel obligated to place even if you change your mind.
I urge you, make both an adoption plan and a parenting plan, and go through your pregnancy as if you will be a parent. You can choose to place only after the birth anyway.

I'm making a wild guess that you're a birth parent. If you're doing a private adoption, often the adoptive parents will pay for your medical expenses.
It shouldn't cost you any money to make an adoption plan for a child.

You will recieve better care if you go yhrough your insurance and the doctors you already have...also most insurance companies cover pregnancy care and birth close to 100% and you insurance rates do not go up for having a baby...that said many adoptive couples will pay most medical bills through your insurance or theirs...if covered. oh and we'll adopt your baby we have a six year old begging for a sibling and have had two stillbirths in the last 14 months...=P...

It will not cost the Birth mother or her family anything to give a child up for adoption. The adoptive family will cover all expenses. There are many different ways to do this also, private adoption (you already know the adoptive family and they will hire a private attorney), the children's division through your state, or an adoption agency. However I do have to ask, are you pregnant and are you considering adoption. If you are please feel free to contact me via email. My husband and I are a foster family and we could probably answer lots of questions for you and we are also a prospective adoptive family if you are looking for a family. Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have on adoption, I would love to help you through this trying time.

No, it would not value any money, in spite of the shown fact that this is a complicated determination to make. sometimes, the organic and organic parent gets from an adoption. Adoptive mothers and fathers frequently pay for prenatal care, clothing, and each so often living expenditures. it actual relies upon on the region. businesses do charge adoptive mothers and fathers a lot of expenditures, the two legal and corporation expenditures, yet they never charge something of the organic and organic mothers and fathers.

When you give your children up for adoption and have signed your rights over to another parent or couple then you are no longer responsible for them in any way.
The adoptive parents pay for the cost of the adoption itself.

I'm curious too, although I've never had any children. I don't know if it will be paid for by the people who may adopt them becasue it's not known if the child will be adopted. Maybe by the hospitial. I'm sure it costs a heart though.

If you have an open private adoption, the potential adoptive parents would be responsible for paying your bills. Your insurance company would not have to be involved at all.
