The Affordable Care Act is a law that requires insurance companies to cover preventative care for women, which includes lactation support. Your insurance should cover the cost of my services, but each insurance company differs in their requirements and process of coverage. I encourage you to contact your insurance provider to ask if lactation services are covered. Most insurance companies reimburse. I require payment for my services up front, in either cash, check, Paypal®, Zelle® or credit card. I will provide you with a detailed super bill for you to submit to insurance for possible reimbursement.
This visit is best for those not needing a scale for to assess intake at the breast. It is ideal for bottle consults, pumping, back to work, latch and positioning help, managing supply, basic lactation education and other needs that don’t require intake assessment.
Visit typically lasts 45 to 60 minutes
Virtual visits will be conducted either over the phone or via a HIPAA compliant videoconferencing tool
