The Basic Steps

If getting a breast pump seems complicated or frustrating to you, you aren’t alone. The process can be perplexing, especially when it comes to figuring out which type of pumps your specific insurance covers. The main thing to remember is that, if your insurance does cover a breast pump, you’ll have to buy it through a medical equipment company like The Breast Pump Store. If you decide to purchase from a non-medical source, your insurance won’t cover it. As you explore how to move forward, here are some basic steps that will provide clarity:

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I buy a breast pump and be reimbursed afterwards?

A majority of insurance plans require people to obtain prescriptions or pre-authorizations from medical professionals. In fact, insurance plans that simply reimburse breast pump purchases without requiring documentation are rare enough that we recommend everyone just get a prescription to be safe.

Is my insurance required by law to cover an electric breast pump?

No, health insurance is not legally required to cover all pump types. As in most cases, the type of coverage depends on the plan, which is why it’s so helpful to connect with the professionals at The Breast Pump Store and determine what your specific plan can do for you.

How often can I get a breast pump that’s covered by insurance?

A majority of insurance plans cover one pump per new pregnancy. We at The Breast Pump Store believe this is an important benefit because it can be very beneficial to get a new pump with each pregnancy for peace of mind.
