We are an in-network provider with Aetna. If your plan covers lactation consultant services, you are likely eligible for up to 6 visits at no charge to you, including prenatal classes and visits. We accept all Aetna subsidiary plans except Medicaid, Allied Health, Wellnet and GEHA.

     - some United plans

     - VA CCN (Veterans Administration Community Care Network) 
     - any carrier with a PNOA (Provider Network of America) logo

Please go to https://go.lactationnetwork.com/BranchburgLactation and complete the insurance information. You should hear within 24 hours if your plan is pre-approved. If approved, 6+ visits are covered 100%. This includes prenatal sessions as well.

OUT-OF-NETWORK FEES

If you are not covered by Aetna or did not receive coverage approval from Lactation Network, you will need to pay out of pocket for your appointment. This includes United Healthcare, Magnacare, Amerihealth, and BCBS Federal. However, we can provide documentation for our clients to seek reimbursement from their plans. Please contact your carrier directly for details. In many cases, the cost of a consultation can be applied to a Health Care Spending Account as well.

Payment is accepted by cash, check, Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express (including HSA card).
