The plan covers services performed by approved provider types.

Services for pregnancy and its complications are covered. Professional services covered include:

• Prenatal and postnatal care.
• Amniocentesis and related genetic counseling and testing during pregnancy
• Prenatal testing (follows state regulations in Washington Administrative Code 246-680-020)
• Vaginal or cesarean delivery
• Care of complications resulting from pregnancy
• Lactation services for medical conditions of the mother or infant (see durable medical equipment benefit for coverage of breast pumps)

For inpatient hospital charges related to a routine childbirth, you pay:

• Any remaining deductible for the mother
• The mother's inpatient hospital copay
• Coinsurance for professional services for the mother while hospitalized
• The deductible for the newborn

For non-routine hospitalization of the newborn, you will also pay the inpatient hospital copay for the newborn.

A newborn dependent of an enrollee is covered from birth to at least 21 days following birth. See ”Adding a New Dependent to Your Coverage" for what you need to do for continued coverage.

Note: See preventive care services for coverage of well-baby care.
