Insurance Info:
I am an Out-Of-Network provider. Payment is due at time of service. I will provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement (minus travel fee for Out of Zone). Lactation support is mandated by The Affordable Care Act. Check with your insurance company to request pre-authorization to see an out-of-network provider. Here's information on why most IBCLCs are out-of-network, and how to get reimbursed for your visit.
WIC. Medicaid, First Responders, and other families in need, please reach out regarding sliding scale.
*Twins/Multiples
I love working with families with multiple births. Please add $50/additional baby to initial visit charge as visits with many babies include thorough assessment and care plan for each individual child
