Humana Insurance Guidelines for Breast Pumps

Per the Affordable Care Act (ACA), many insurance companies cover breastfeeding equipment and supplies at little to no cost to patients as a preventative benefit. Humana Insurance works hard to help members lead healthy, active, and rewarding lives by giving incredible coverage at competitive rates. Because of this, Humana has expanded their role as an insurance provider by making great strides in creating healthcare systems that work for everyone.

You will need a prescription in order to get your breast pump, but it's no problem! Our specialists will handle it for you and will send a prescription request directly to your doctor on your behalf. 

Even better? As long as we have your prescription, we can ship your breast pump to you at any point during your pregnancy.

Note: It may take some time to obtain your prescription from your doctor, so it is a good idea to submit your information early!

We all know that breastfeeding has lots of health benefits for mom and baby, and with how busy our schedules have become, a lot of mothers choose to pump for a variety of reasons. 

Pumping is a great way to ensure baby is still getting nature’s best nutrition while allowing mom to go back to work or school, or for family and loved ones to join in the bonding experience of feeding via bottle. Power pumping also provides a great way to increase breast milk production for moms. This method closely mimics cluster feeding, which happens when a baby nurses frequently and in short bursts to naturally stimulate mama’s milk production.

When you fill out our Qualify Through Insurance Form to get your breast pump through insurance, we automatically check your eligibility for additional motherhood essentials your insurance plan might cover, like new breast pump supplies and pregnancy and postpartum compression items. If you’re eligible for any of these items, we’ll reach out to let you know how to take advantage of these benefits.

Humana covers one set of replacement supplies for your breast pump 30 days after delivery. This includes all of the parts that connect to the breast pump motor, such as tubing, flanges, and valves. If your Humana plan qualifies for this benefit, we will notify you via email and phone approximately 30 days after your due date so you can easily place your order for free additional supplies.

Aeroflow Breastpumps provides pregnancy support, postpartum recovery garments, and compression socks. These are all medical-grade garments that have been designed by healthcare professionals to provide support, relief, and stabilization for increased comfort during pregnancy, and to assist with postpartum healing and swelling. These garments are a DME benefit, meaning they’re subject to copay and deductible, and your Humana health plan may cover this as well! We’ll let you know what your options are and how to get the pregnancy and postpartum compression items you qualify for!
