When should I hire a doula in Hoboken, NJ?

Are doulas covered by insurance?
Coverage varies. Some HSA/FSA plans reimburse doula services, and a growing number of states (including Medicaid programs in CA, NY, NJ, MI, and others) cover doula care. Ask your doula for an itemized receipt and superbill.
