Perinatal events can result in associated longer term health and broader societal costs, as shown by the size of damages paid in obstetric litigation cases, which represent a substantial cost to the NHS.27 Follow - up over weeks or longer to monitor recovery, or a future assessment of the outcomes for mothers and babies at a later date, would act as a vehicle for estimating costs and consequences beyond the perinatal period and shed more light on long term cost effectiveness.

The generalised linear model on costs showed that, even after adjustment for clinical and sociodemographic confounders, planned birth in settings other than obstetric units remained cost saving compared with the reference category of the obstetric unit: savings averaged # 134, # 130, and # 310 for planned births in alongside midwifery units, free standing midwifery units, and at home, respectively (P < 0.001)(see appendix 3 on bmj.com).

Switching from planned birth in an obstetric unit to midwifery units was on average cost saving and associated with a non-significant decrease in adverse perinatal outcomes.
