Can the prenatal care expenses under the New Rural Cooperative Medical Scheme be reimbursed?

Patient's question:

I have purchased the New Rural Cooperative Medical Insurance. Now that I am pregnant, I need to go to the hospital for prenatal care. Can the New Rural Cooperative Medical Insurance cover the prepayment for prenatal care?

Doctor's answer:

After a woman becomes pregnant, to ensure the health of the fetus, she should undergo regular prenatal check-ups under the guidance of a specialist doctor. Going to the hospital for prenatal check-ups will inevitably incur additional costs. Although the prepaid items for the New Rural Cooperative Medical Insurance (NRCMI) vary across different regions in the country, prenatal check-ups are covered by the NRCMI in the vast majority of areas. For specific details, you can consult the local NRCMI management department.
