Methadone and cleft palate

[littleneoRN]

I'm surprised that insurance or Medicaid is willing to pay for these stays at your facilities. Not saying that money is a good reason to make a decision. I'm just wondering how this is paid for.

It's not as much a matter of, "Mom will sell/take the baby's drugs" You are giving a narcotic to a neonate. There are huge ramifications if you give too much or too little to a withdrawing baby. You all feel comfortable with that?

I am so sorry that you had such a bad experience. I agree with your statement that clefts have been connected to a variety of things.
