The Only Conference that Discusses the Real Financial Issues:
Obstetricians stop delivering babies, hospitals close their L&D units and midwifery schools can't fill their slots...all for financial reasons, WHILE the press reports on home birth. We will examine whether it is feasable to continue to deliver babies and under what circumstances. Real financial statements will be examined.
We will examine, debate and discuss: Evidence, Economics, Perception and Politics.
Of course, there will also be a debate on home birth!
