MODEL POLICY for MANDATED COVERAGE OF BREASTFEEDING SUPPORT


FINALLY - some direction for insurance companies/payors on coverage for lactations care, supplies and education. The Affordable Care Act that began back in August 1, 2012 requires a lot of this, but it is murky exactly what is covered and what is not and who should perform the services. 

Please see this important press release and refer to the Model Policy.


Remember, Nightingales Breastfeeding Support Center has been doing these things for over SIX years. We are fully equipped to comply with the these mandates and supply pre/peri/post partum breastfeeding support, supplies and counseling.
