One of the most common questions we often receive is, “How do I pick a breast pump, and is it covered under insurance?” As a new parent, or pregnant parent, the task of figuring out not only which breast pump to get, but how to go through your insurance, can be incredibly daunting.

Insurance eligibility:
In most cases, new mothers are covered for a free breast pump through insurance anywhere from a few months before baby is born up to 1 year after birth (i.e. throughout their breastfeeding journey). This is a good rule of thumb to go by, however, the exact time period depends on your particular insurance plan.
