To check if your insurance covers lactation consultation visits, please scan or click on the QR code and enter your insurance details.
Within 24-72 hours, you will receive an email from The Lactation Network confirming whether your insurance has been approved or denied for lactation consultation coverage.
If your insurance is approved, please schedule an appointment and select the “Lactation Consultation INSURANCE” for your visit option.
If your insurance is denied, we can provide a Superbill upon request, which you can submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement. Since our lactation consultant is considered an out-of-network provider, we recommend reaching out to your insurance company to inquire about potential coverage for partial or full reimbursement of the lactation consultation costs.
Insurance coverage for in-home and office lactation consultation visits are available if approved. If you wish to add infant craniosacral therapy to your insurance-covered visits, a $75 out-of-pocket fee will be due at the time of service.
If you have any questions or need assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at info@carebyallay.com or call/text (628) 285-3963. We’re here to help!
