Will my health insurance reimburse me for the consultation?
Lactation consultations are considered Women's Preventative Health under the ACA (Affordable Care Act). Most health insurance companies reimburse in full for lactation consultations. There should be no copay or deductible. I recommend you contact your health insurance to verify your coverage. Massachusetts health insurance companies are covering teleheath (virtual) consultations during the COVID-19 pandemic.
How do I get reimbursed for the consultation?
Payment is made at the time of the visit. I will provide you with a Superbill which contains all coding and information your health insurance needs to reimburse you. You'll submit the Superbill, along with any other forms required by your health insurance, to receive payment.

Do I need to time my baby's feeding for the consultation?
No. There will be plenty of time to observe a feeding during the consultation. Please feed your baby as needed so the two of you are comfortable when we begin the session.
