I have Empire Plan Goverment which is BCBS for hospital and United Health Care for doctors. Just found out yesturday that they won't cover a Breast Pump.




I have the same insurance & was also told my insurance will cover NO PART of a breastpump! BOOOOOO!!! I got so excited when I saw other ladies on here getting all/some of theirs paid for. I guess it's not a big deal though bc I can borrow my sister's Medela pump from a few years ago & just get some replacement parts/tubes.

Thanks for sharing! I wonder if GHI covers it. When I get farther along in my pregnancy I will call and find out.



I called GHI and they said if its medically necessay (need a note from doctor) you will only need to pay $100 deductible.

I'm going to call again closer to my due date just to double check

I have Cigna also. I'm planning on calling after delivery and saying baby has trouble latching - that should do it hopefully!!
