In plain words
When an employer has paid into maternity insurance (生育保险), the medical costs of childbirth and the allowance during maternity leave come out of that fund. If your spouse has no job, the medical costs can still be reimbursed. Whether you have enough months of enrollment, and whether giving birth in another place requires registering first, are things to ask ahead of time; they can't be fixed afterward.
