Ways to pay for your visit

If you have a Medicaid, Tricare, BCBS Federal, or any plan that I cannot bill for lactation coverage- these plans may require you to look for an in-network provider, or you can ask them about providing GAP coverage if there is no one in-network nearby.

The Affordable Care Act requires all plans to cover lactation counseling (unless grandfathered,) so you may be able to get your visit reimbursed- this is not guaranteed, but I have a script with codes that can help you get pre-approval or more information to covering your cost. Click the button below for the script.

First, call your insurance to verify your benefits and see if there is an IBCLC that is in-network, if not, you can ask for a pre-authorization for an out-of-network IBCLC. I will give you a Superbill to submit to your insurance company after our visit. Contact me if you need help or have questions.

Self Pay

If you don’t have insurance or they will not provide out of network benefits, you can choose to self pay and can even use your HSA or FSA cards! I offer a special discount for WIC and SNAP participants. My follow up visits are intentionally discounted, because I want to make sure that you can get the care you need, sometimes a follow up is necessary. I also offer packages that are discounted even further if you want to combine visits when you first book or as a baby shower gift. Let me know if you might need a payment plan. There are also lots of free resources in the area that I can help connect you with- I would love to talk to you and support you!
