Can I still get a breast pump if my insurance only covers one through medical necessity?Updated 2 months ago

If you have been informed that your insurance plan only covers a breast pump under medical necessity, Aeroflow Breastpumps is able to help.

The medical necessity requirements that could qualify you for a breast pump include, but are not limited to: 

1. Premature birth
2. Multiple births (twins/triplets)
3. Serious illness of the mother or baby
4. Prolonged separation at birth due to the baby being in the NICU
5. Mastitis or other infections of the breast
6. The baby has a neurological or genetic abnormality
7. Anatomic or mechanical malformation (such as a cleft palate)
8. Congenital malformations that require surgery.


If you meet any of these requirements, we will need a prescription from your doctor with the correct insurance-accepted diagnosis code. Please reach out to us by responding to the email you received or contacting our Customer Care team.
