My experience in one of the most expensive suburbs of NYC, at the most highly rated hospital in the state, a baby with standard 2 night stay and delivery and no complications cost $20k or so all together with about $5k out of pocket on a gold HSA plan a couple years ago.

We only paid $6k from HSA (maxing out the out-of-pocket) but that Mt Sinai hospital charges $80k (after adjustments) and the insurance pays the rest. I should add there was a C-secyion that barely added $10k to the bill.

I know, couldn't believe it either
