I have private cover but deliberately went to a public hospital because the c-sect rates are lower there. I did end up with a c-sect in the end (it's a long story - 42wks +2 days long!) but I truly believe if I was in a private hospital I would have gone straight to c-sect rather than experiencing a 'natural' (after being induced over 3 days) labour first. I strongly believe the statistics should be available. Not for naming and shaming but so that women can be informed. As all things related to pregnancy and childbirth, parents have the right to be informed and therefore make informed decisions about their care. That's my five cents!
