Delivery Packages

At Alaska Regional, our Maternity Center understands that a new life is about your baby—and it’s about you. Delivery packages are tailored to the individual needs of mother and baby.

Vaginal delivery

Vaginal deliveries are the most common form of delivery. To prepare, doctors recommend taking childbirth classes.

Packages include:

• External fetal monitoring
• Local anesthetic
• Maternal labs (CBC, type and screen)
• Most maternal and newborn supplies
• Non-prescription maternal medication
• Well newborn medication and vaccines (vitamin K, erythromycin, Hep B)
• Maternal labor care
• Well newborn care and labs (metabolic screen, cord blood workup)
• Epidural anesthesia supplies and medication
• Newborn Algo hearing test

Rates do not include fees for physicians, anesthesiologists and some lab services.

Two accounts (one for the mother and one for the baby) make up each package. Some non-routine medications, labs and supplies are not included in the packages and will be itemized on your bill. The package begins at the time of delivery but the room charges depend on the number of nights stayed. Package prices may vary from those listed above.

Cesarean section

Cesarean sections are sometimes necessary to ensure the health of the mother or baby. Doctors make all attempts to plan for the procedure in advance. At times, the decision must be made during labor.

Packages include

• Surgical prep
• Operating room
• Post-surgical care
• Most maternal and newborn labs
• Most well newborn medication
• Maternal and newborn post-care
• Most cesarean section labs
• Most maternal medication (excluding antibiotics)
• Most maternal and nursery supplies
• Most narcotic pain control medication
• Epidural anesthesia supplies
• Newborn Algo hearing test
