Hello! I had a home birth with a CPM out of network (who was serving as my doula) after planning to give birth with another midwife practice at a local hospital. When we called Care First, a very nice woman told me to appeal with a written letter making my case. I kind of gave up on it after they “denied my appeal” soon after. Much to my surprise, I got a check from CareFirst for $1250 reimbursing me for part of the $4500 birth that I had paid out of pocket. Doesn’t hurt to make your case. Good luck! ❤️
