Let’s make this part easy.

Lactation consultations are supposed to be covered by your health insurance at no out-of-pocket cost to you. As outlined on Healthcare.gov, “Health insurance plans must provide breastfeeding support, counseling, and equipment for the duration of breastfeeding. These services may be provided before and after birth.”

The last thing I want you to worry about right now is negotiating with your insurance company for the services you are entitled to receive. There are enough challenges during the postpartum period. I want to make this part easy.

Aetna: I am in network with Aetna plans. If you have Aetna, please contact me to get started.

Cigna: I am also contracted with Wildflower Health to provide no cost lactation care to Cigna patients. Verify your Cigna benefits here.

United: I’ve partnered with The Lactation Network (TLN) to handle insurance claims for you (and me). If you are in network, you should be able to receive lactation consultations at no out-of-pocket cost to you. For some insurance providers, The Lactation Network covers you at 100% for your initial visit as well as needed follow ups. They will notify you of any restrictions up front. Verify your insurance benefits here and we can get started.

*Update: Blue Cross, Blue Shield: As of August 2026, TLN has been denying coverage for most Blue Shield and Anthem PPO plans. Verify your insurance benefits here to see if you are in network. If your insurance plan will not cover the visit, I can provide you with self-pay pricing in advance and a Superbill.

*Please note: Effective January 1, 2026 in person visits outside of Marin County may incur a travel fee to cover the costs of bridge tolls and travel time. I will inform you in advance of working together if a travel fee will be applied.
