How to choose a pediatrician before the baby arrives
Choose before your due date, so the practice is set before the first newborn checkup. Three things to do in Billings:
Book a prenatal visit
The AAP recommends a prenatal visit with the pediatrician for first-time parents, parents at high risk, and anyone who asks for one. Ask whether the practice offers one, and use it to ask about office hours, after-hours calls and sick visits.Check your insurance network
Call the number on your insurance card, or use your plan's directory, to confirm the practice is in network, and ask how long you have to add the baby to your plan after the birth. If your baby will be on Medicaid or CHIP, ask the practice whether it takes it. InsureKidsNow.gov links to each state's program for children (1-877-543-7669). On Medicaid for the pregnancy? See pregnancy Medicaid in Montana.Plan the hospital newborn visit
The AAP says every newborn should have an evaluation after birth, then a checkup 3 to 5 days after birth. Ask the practice whether its doctors see newborns at the hospital where you plan to deliver, and if not, who does the exam there and how the records reach the practice. Compare with OB-GYNs in Billings and hospitals with labor and delivery in Billings.
