What to Expect
Thank you for your interest in our sliding scale option for your pregnancy and birth investment.
Community Roots Midwife Collective Non Profit (CRMCNP) has strong intentions of providing midwifery service to all people, with the hope of reducing financial barriers to our care. This goal will require the participation of many, including national and local organizations who support the Midwives Model of Care™, local health care advocates, and birthing people and families in our community who want to support greater access to midwives. Due to the generous contributions of our supporters and donors, CRMC is grateful to offer sliding scale discounts for families in need, when there are funds available.
For a sliding scale to work, it relies on the principles of truthfulness, respect for complexity, and accountability. We ask you to consider the idea of sacrifice vs hardship when examining your access to our care. If paying our fee of $6500 would be difficult, but not detrimental, it could qualify as a sacrifice. You might have to cut back on other spending (such as going out to dinner or buying coffee), but this will probably not have a long-term, harmful impact on your life. It is a sacred sacrifice in order to pursue something you are called to do. If, however, paying our average fee would lead to a harmful impact on your life, such as not being able to put food on the table, pay rent, or pay for your transportation to work, then you are dealing with hardship. Folks coming from a space of hardship typically qualify for the lower end of the sliding scale of $500- $4499.
The concept of sacrifice vs hardship is a very useful nuance when talking about one’s ability to afford/access something. It recognizes and respects that paying for something might still be a challenge even if it is just a short-term one, while giving appropriate space for those who are dealing with financial hardship. We also ask you to consider paying for services if you have the means to do so. The midwives of CRMCNP believe that all people should have access to midwifery care, and have agreed to work on a sliding scale. Please consider our commitment when choosing the appropriate spot on our scale.
