Frequently Asked Questions
Does health insurance cover pregnancy and childbirth?
UK health insurance cover typically does not include routine antenatal care and delivery. It is therefore advised to check with your insurer prior to booking which, if any, fees can be reimbursed. Where services are covered by insurance, please note that Dr Lam is a registered provider with major insurers such as Bupa, Aviva, Axa, Cigna and WPA.
When are the consultant fees payable?
To secure a Pregnancy Care Package which includes all consultations, we ask that 50% of the fees are paid at 20 weeks, or if booking after 20 weeks then 50% is due at time of booking. The remaining balance is payable within 7 days after the delivery. If booking a Caesarean section only (and antenatal care is provided elsewhere), the full fee will be payable at time of booking.
What happens if Dr Lam is not available for the delivery?
Dr Lam will discuss with you prior to booking a Pregnancy Care Package if she has any holiday plans coinciding with your expected delivery date. If Dr Lam is not available to deliver your baby due to rare unforeseen circumstances then another member of The Portland obstetrics consultant team with whom Dr Lam works closely will be available to provide cover.
