CPMs or direct-entry midwives are not. I was lucky in that the online search for a midwife with my insurance’s website DID bring up a list of CNMs (I think I had to search under “Other” or “Nurse Practitioner” or something). The screwy thing about my situation is- the midwives are in-network, but the birth center is out-of-network. So, if the midwives attend at the hospital, both the prenatal care and the birth will be in-network. We chose to go to the birth center, so the prenatal care will be in-network and the birth will be at out-of-network rates- but still not too bad.
