What a midwife does
Midwives are specialists in healthy pregnancy, birth and the early weeks afterwards. A privately practising midwife offers continuity: the same person through pregnancy, at the birth, and in your home in the postnatal weeks.
Women engage a private midwife from early pregnancy, often when continuity of carer matters to them. Midwifery-led continuity is associated with less intervention and higher satisfaction for women with healthy pregnancies, and midwives work alongside doctors when something needs specialist input.
Referrals, fees and Medicare
You can contact a private midwife directly, without a referral.
Medicare rebates are available for care from an endorsed, Medicare-eligible midwife, and cover part of antenatal and postnatal visits. Private midwifery is usually charged as a package, so the out-of-pocket depends on the practice. Homebirth is generally not covered by private health insurance.
