FAQs
If you have one of our hospital policies that include pregnancy cover and have served your 12-month waiting period, you’re eligible for zero out-of-pocket costs* with Hatch.
Hatch will provide a no-obligation bulk-billed initial consultation to help you understand the Hatch model of care and decide if it’s right for you.
The program will be offered to you if your pregnancy is screened as low-intermediate risk at the time of booking.
Antenatal and postnatal care includes 3-4 obstetrician visits and 10-12 midwife visits.
Appointments will be with the same one or two clinicians, although a known obstetrician cannot be offered for the birth.
Hatch will happily accept women up until 37 weeks’ gestation, provided eligibility criteria with Hatch is met.
