When was the last time you had to file an insurance claim? What was the process like? In all likelihood it took several phone calls and emails before the issue was settled. Now imagine navigating an insurance claim while preparing to have a baby.
Because of the Affordable Care Act, insurance policies must cover the cost of a breast pump (some grandfathered plans are exempt). Most policies require a prescription from your doctor and then will reimburse you for a purchased pump or redirect you to a durable medical equipment supplier. Even then, some policies have restrictions when a mom can even get her breast pump based on her due date.
Aeroflow Breastpumps recognizes the need for nursing and pregnant mothers to have access to a user-friendly website that provides all the information and supplies they need for a successful breastfeeding experience, free of hassle.
Do I Need a Breast Pump?
Most commonly, a mom uses a breast pump to return to work and continue to provide breast milk for her baby. A breast pump can support a mom’s breastfeeding goals in a variety of ways. It can help manage engorgement or draw out inverted nipples. Building a supply of expressed milk means your partner can the responsibility and joy of feeding. Even more, the breast milk supply can be used in case you are unable to breastfeed your baby.
Even if you don’t plan on using a breast pump, it’s better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. Your eligibility for a pump might expire after a certain date after your baby arrives.
