Regulation of Private/Independent Adoption

Prospective adoptive parents may be concerned about the costs of adopting a child and their ability to meet those costs. Becoming a parent is rarely free of expenses—pregnancy and childbirth can be expensive and even more so without adequate insurance—and adoptive parents may be faced with initial costs that seem challenging.

A private, independent, or direct-placement adoption is an adoption arranged between a birth family and an adoptive family without using a public agency. A placement arranged in this way between families in the United States is referred to as a private/independent domestic adoption. Attorney may assist in completing a private domestic adoption. Unlike adoption of a child from foster care through a public agency, which involves fairly minimal fees, in a private/independent adoption the adoptive family is expected to pay many of the expenses.

Approximately 47 States, the District of Columbia, American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and Puerto Rico have laws that provide some regulation of the fees and expenses that adoptive parents are expected to pay when arranging a private placement or independent domestic adoption. Some of the fees and expenses addressed in the statutes include expenses of the birth mother during pregnancy and childbirth; placement costs, such as agency fees; and legal and attorney expenses for adoptive and birth parents.

In private placement or independent adoptions, the adoptive parents may pay some of the birth mother's expenses, particularly in the case of a pregnant woman planning to place her infant for adoption. Approximately 45 States, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands specify in their statutes the type of birth parent expenses a prospective adoptive family is allowed to pay. The actual dollar amount is usually limited to "reasonable and customary."

The types of expenses most commonly allowed by statute include:
  1. Maternity-related medical and hospital costs
  2. Temporary living expenses of the mother during pregnancy
  3. Counseling fees
  4. Attorney and legal fees and guardian ad litem fees
  5. Travel costs, meals, and lodging when necessary for court appearances or accessing services
  6. Foster care for the child, If necessary
Approximately seven States explicitly prohibit adoptive parents from paying certain types of expenses. Costs such as educational expenses, vehicles, vacations, permanent housing, or any other payment for the monetary gain of the birth parent often are excluded. In 16 States, the statutes do not exclude specific types of expenses, but do indicate that any expense not expressly permitted by law or considered by the court to be unreasonable cannot be paid by the adoptive parents.

Approximately 18 States specify time limits for the payment of the birth mother's living expenses or psychological counseling.The time limits set for these payments range from 30 days up to 2 months after the child's birth or placement. For example, Iowa allows postplacement counseling for 60 days but limits payment of living expenses to 30 days. New York limits payment of living expenses to 60 days prior to the child's birth and 30 days thereafter. Oklahoma allows payments for postplacement counseling for up to 6 months but limits other expenses to 2 months beyond placement of the child. In seven States, the payment of expenses may not exceed a set dollar amount unless the court grants an exception.

The fees charged by agencies as well as the extent to which they are regulated by State authorities vary from State to State. In 34 States, the Northern Mariana Islands, and Puerto Rico, the statutes simply authorize agencies to collect fees that are reasonable or cover the actual cost of the adoption services provided.12 Approximately 11 States and the District of Columbia specify a dollar amount for agency fees or specific services that agencies provide.13 Approximately 18 States provide for a reduction or waiver of fees for adoptive families that meet specified income criteria.14 Nevada waives fees when the family is adopting a child with special needs.

The services agencies typically provide include preplacement services such as preparation of home studies of adoptive families, compiling social and medical histories of birth families, birth family counseling, and postplacement services. Sometimes agencies also will receive payment for birth parent expenses and make appropriate disbursements. You are required you make a first payment for court document preparation which should be minimum of $2,500 Kindly fill in the attach form. And immediately the form is filled i will provide you with Account information where you will be remitting the Fee.

About Sarah's condition, The Doctor confirm with me that a number of diseases and conditions has cause the lungs to become so unhealthy that one or both lungs need to be replaced with a transplant. These diseases and conditions include:
• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and/or emphysema: due to tobacco smoking, alpha-antitrypsin deficiency
(an inherited condition), or other causes
• Pulmonary fibrosis (scarring of the lung)
• Sarcoidosis
• Cystic fibrosis
• Bronchiectasis (chronic airway infection and damage)
• Primary pulmonary hypertension
• Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM)
• Langerhans cell histiocytosis of the lung (also known as eosinophilic granuloma or histiocytosis X)
• Congenital heart disease with Eisenmenger syndrome
Other rare conditions may also be considered for transplantation.

He said, "Lung transplantation has the potential both to lengthen her life expectancy and substantially improve quality of her life" He added, It is impossible to predict how long she may survive after transplantation. The most critical period for survival is the first year after transplantation; this is the period when surgical complications, rejection, and infection are the greatest threat to survival. Patients who survive the first year are more likely to survive 3 years or longer after transplantation. There are patients alive today who had lung transplantation 10 or even 15 years ago.
