US healthcare datapoint: Price of having a baby in Seattle in 2018 is $29550 (Billed before insurance negotiation and payments). Includes pre-natal OB, labs, normal delivery, epidural. $4700 out of pocket cost (deductible FSA, credit card). Atleast the baby is priceless!

83.5% of the price was for procedures on the mother. The baby only becomes a billable patient once out. So twins may not be 2x but who knows what the chargemasters will do.
