Consultations are available at various times and group classes open in several locations. I accept payment by cash, check, credit card and HSA card; payments must be received at time of service. I have recently partnered with Lactation Network which has been successful with obtaining insurance coverage of lactation consultations. If you have a PPO plan through BCBS, Anthem, Cigna or United, you may be eligible for up to 3 consultations at no charge to you! Complete their form today to check your coverage. Be sure to enter my name as lactation consultant! https://lactationnetwork.com/lactation-consultation/
I also provide a detailed billing invoice for each consultation/class which can be submitted to your insurance company for reimbursement. Reimbursement depends on your specific insurance company and plan. Many insurance companies will reimburse part or all of the cost of a lactation consultant/class, especially with a referral from your or your child's physician. Visit the Resources tab for additional information regarding your insurance reimbursement.
