How does the Affordable Care Act help me get a breast pump?Updated 5 months ago

As of August 1st, 2012 The Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires that all accredited insurance plans provide coverage for essential health benefits including maternity and newborn care. If you have an ACA accredited health insurance plan, they are required to offer coverage for breast pumps. 

While they are required to provide coverage, your insurance may not cover the entire cost depending on the pump. Coverage amounts vary according to your plan.
