The hospitalization expenses of newborn babies can be reimbursed by maternity insurance.

Legal analysis: The items covered by maternity insurance generally include maternity allowance, maternity medical expenses, and expenses incurred by employees due to family planning operations, excluding the hospitalization expenses of newborns, so maternity insurance has nothing to do with neonatal hospitalization. Newborns generally have two reimbursement methods. One is that the mother and the baby are bound to use the mother's medical insurance to reimburse the newborn. The other is that newborns can buy medical insurance within one month of birth and can be reimbursed from birth. The specific policies of social security bureaus in each region will be different.
