Extra/Hidden Costs of Delivery in Dubai (City Hospital, Al Zahra)
Hi Ladies,
In planning for the delivery of my 2nd baby (but this will be my first baby in Dubai) I originally intended to deliver at either Mediclinic City Hospital or Al Zahra Hospital. However after reading many of the posts on expatwoman (most are older posts), I've heard there are lots of extra/hidden costs above the "price of the delivery package". I know the things listed as exclusions (epidural, forceps, etc) are not included but can anyone who has recent info (2016-2017) comment on how much extra costs beyond the package price I should plan for? And even better what these costs are for?
Thing is I may or may not have insurance at delivery time (my current insurance which covers delivery up to 7000k will expire before my delivery). So I will either pay to renew my insurance and pay the costs above the 7000 delivery limit, or buy a delivery package at these hospitals.
Help please!!!!!!
