​
Heart of Houston Birth and Wellness Center is not in-network with any private insurance plan or medicaid. Even though we are not in-network, in many cases our fees will be comparable (sometimes even cheaper) with your out-of-pocket expense. Depending on your individual plan, you may qualify for a gap-exception or out-of-network benefits reimbursement. We do not file claims with your insurance. If you would like to file for reimbursement from your insurance carrier we are happy to supply you with an invoice to submit to your carrier. We highly recommend Napier Midwifery Billing for assistance in determining your insurance benefits, obtaining a gap-exception, and filing claims.
