Breast pump- Insurance Coverage

I have BCBS and I originally was using edgepark because they had the medela, but now they don't offer it due to the shortage. Which Medical supply did you use and what breast pump was offered?
Any recommendations on breast pump besides the medela?

There is a Lewins Medical Supply store by me that UHC has as a provider. Look up medical supply facilities that are covered with your plan online. (like doing a search for an in-network provider/doctor)

I have Oxford and ordered the Medela Advanced Pump In Style through Byram Healthcare. It hasn't come yet (because Oxford won't allow them to ship until my due date or baby is born, whichever comes first) but they were very helpful on the phone and I had no trouble placing my order.

I just called my Insurance and Byram is covered under my plan. I am going to give them a call. I hope they have them. I have called about 15 medical supplies today and either they are out of stock or don't offer breast pumps.
