Insurance Coverage for Consultations

Basking Babies will not bill insurance on your behalf,  but will try to provide all the necessary paperwork you need to submit for reimbursement. Many insurance companies cover lactation care, but we cannot guarantee our services will be covered by your company. Some families also choose to use funds from their pre-tax medical spending accounts to cover lactation services. We suggest you check with your plan/provider to see what options you may have
