Labour and delivery rooms
All labour and delivery rooms at Mount Sinai are private.
After you have delivered your baby, you will be moved to the Mother-Baby Unit where you will be placed in a standard ward, semi-private or private room, based on the preference you noted at admission and availability.
Insurance for private and semi-private rooms
Most extended health insurance plans cover all or part of private or semi-private room charges.
Please check with your insurance provider for details. It is your responsibility to confirm your insurance coverage. Our team is unable to contact insurance providers for privacy reasons.
Direct billing
We can bill directly to most major extended health benefit plans. This means that rather than paying upfront for the whole amount and being reimbursed by your insurance company, you pay only the amount you are responsible for. Please confirm with your insurance company (or with us at admission) if we can bill your insurance company directly. Bring your insurance information with you to the hospital.
Paying a hospital room bill
