Kids these days, always in a rush to be someplace.Marbil said:no not insensitive at all - however, it would be great if my labour lasted from my house to the hospital - all of approx 8 mins!!!
You can use your cover depending what you have, best to check it out in advance.NHG said:If you went public for gyne etc can you use your VHI cover for the private room if there was one available?
huskerdu said:You cannot book a private room, if you are a public patient.
I went public but later found out I could have got a private room for 3 nights under my VHI cover.
Marbil, I found it great comfort being in the ward. I'm for going public but like huskerdu says a lot are for and a lot are against. your choice at end of the day. Was due to have baby in MLU in Drogheda but ended up a section, stayed 6 days!
golden mean said:As far as I can see the main advantage of private is that you don't have to wait long for outpatient appointments. If you are both going to sit around waiting for appointments and either or both of you is self employed you can count in the opportunity cost of your time and you might well opt for private on that basis.
