Celebrating National Breastfeeding Month

By Lauren Monteverde August 15, 2024

August is recognized National Breastfeeding Month, a time to celebrate, promote, and support breastfeeding as the foundation of lifelong health and wellness for both babies and mothers. Whether you’re a new mom, an experienced parent, or supporting someone on their breastfeeding journey, understanding the benefits of breastfeeding and navigating the insurance landscape to obtain a breast pump are crucial steps. At Complete Care Medical, we are here to support you every step of the way.

The Benefits of Breastfeeding

Breastfeeding offers a wealth of benefits for both the baby and the mother. Here are some of the key advantages:

For Babies:

  • Nutritional Excellence: Breast milk provides the ideal balance of nutrients, perfectly tailored to a baby’s developmental needs. It contains antibodies that help protect against infections and diseases.
  • Stronger Immune System: Babies who are breastfed have a lower risk of developing respiratory illnesses, ear infections, and gastrointestinal diseases.
  • Enhanced Cognitive Development: Studies have shown that breastfed babies tend to have higher IQ scores and better cognitive development as they grow.
  • Reduced Risk of Chronic Conditions: Breastfeeding lowers the risk of developing chronic conditions such as obesity, diabetes, and certain allergies.

For Mothers:

  • Faster Recovery Postpartum: Breastfeeding helps the uterus return to its pre-pregnancy size more quickly and reduces postpartum bleeding.
  • Long-term Health Benefits: It lowers the risk of breast and ovarian cancer, reduces the chances of developing type 2 diabetes, and may help with postpartum weight loss.
  • Emotional Bonding: The act of breastfeeding fosters a unique bond between mother and baby, promoting emotional well-being.

Breast Pump Insurance Information

Many new mothers choose to use a breast pump to help maintain their milk supply, especially when returning to work or dealing with feeding challenges. Thanks to the Affordable Care Act (ACA), most insurance plans cover the cost of a breast pump. Here’s what you need to know:

  • Insurance Coverage: Most health insurance plans cover the cost of 1 double electric breast pump, either fully or partially. Depending on the plan, it will either be per pregnancy or per calendar year. Coverage may also include lactation support services, replacement parts and milk bags.
  • Types of Pumps Covered: Insurance typically covers a standard double electric pump, which is sufficient for most mothers. However, you may also be eligible for upgrades to more advanced models depending on your insurance policy. Our breast pump specialist will be able to go over your coverage details and options with you so that you can find the perfect pump. 
  • How to Get a Breast Pump Through Insurance: The process usually involves getting a prescription from your doctor and then ordering the pump through a supplier like Complete Care. At Complete Care Medical, we will help get the prescription and anything else the insurance requires for you to receive a free breast pump. We’ll also handle the insurance paperwork and deliver the pump directly to you within 1-3 business days of receiving the approval.
