Across the country, neonatal intensive care units provide intensive care to seriously ill babies.
This care can save lives, but also comes at a price, as some parents report receiving multimillion-dollar bills for their baby’s hospital stay. A few researchers questioned whether too many babies were being admitted to the NICU and whether there was a profit motive at play.
The New York Times wants to hear from readers who can share their recent experiences with NICU care. Hearing families talk about their experiences helps us better understand where we should focus our reporting.
We will not publish any part of your response to this questionnaire without first discussing it with you. We will not share your contact information outside of The Times newsroom and will only use it to contact you. If you prefer to share your story with us anonymously, please visit our tips page.
