Maternity Insurance & Newborn Coverage
Pregnancy and childbirth in Hong Kong come with some of the highest medical costs in Asia. A normal delivery can range from HKD$70,000 to $100,000, while a caesarean or complicated pregnancy can easily exceed HKD$150,000. Without the right insurance, even a joyful event can become a financial strain.
That’s why Maternity Insurance & Newborn Coverage is so valuable. It ensures that all major costs — from prenatal checkups to postnatal care — are covered under one plan. At Expat Insurance Hong Kong, we help you understand every detail of your coverage: what’s included, what’s not, and when your policy needs to start to guarantee full protection for both mother and baby.

Why Choose Maternity Insurance & Newborn Coverage?
Many insurers in Hong Kong require a waiting period — usually 10 to 24 months — before maternity benefits take effect. Planning early ensures your policy is active long before you need it. Beyond childbirth, this coverage also protects against complications of pregnancy and provides medical care for newborns immediately after delivery.
What Does Maternity Insurance & Newborn Coverage Include?
- Prenatal and OB-GYN consultations
- Routine ultrasounds and scans
- Delivery costs for natural or caesarean births
- Option to add your baby to the plan from birth
- Hospital accommodation and maternity ward fees
- Complications of pregnancy or premature birth
- Immediate newborn medical care
Maternity Insurance gives you peace of mind during pregnancy, while Newborn Coverage ensures your baby is protected from day one. Whether you deliver locally or abroad, our advisors help you select a plan that balances comprehensive care, affordability, and flexibility.
Possible Pitfalls We Help You Avoid
Waiting period issues: Many people apply too late and lose eligibility. We make sure you start your plan early.
Complication exclusions: Some plans don’t cover emergencies like preterm delivery. We ensure complete maternity protection.
Newborn coverage delays: Without proper setup, babies may lack protection at birth. We help you add newborns immediately.
Hospital cost overruns: Delivery costs can exceed expectations — we make sure your limits match real Hong Kong prices.
These are common pitfalls that leave families underprepared. With Expat Insurance, you’ll have expert support, clear guidance, and full coverage for one of life’s most important journeys — from pregnancy to parenthood.

Why Our Clients Are Satisfied
Our service consistently exceeds expectations. But don’t just take our word for it—here’s what our customers have to say!
Real Stories That Show the Difference
An airline executive broke his ankle and faced a HKD 270,000 hospital bill. His company scheme only covered half. A broker-arranged plan filled the gap, saving him HKD 120,000.
A young expat couple secured comprehensive cover before starting a family. When faced with complications, their policy saved them from six-figure maternity costs.
An American professional developed cancer just months after taking out coverage. Because he had comprehensive, worldwide cover, he was able to choose treatment both in the US and Hong Kong.
Far from being rare, these scenarios happen every day in Hong Kong, where one accident or hospital stay can quickly overwhelm finances. What separates safety from exposure is often simply the right policy.
