I am an in-network provider with Aetna and contracted with most Aetna plans.

In most cases, Aetna covers 100% of lactation appointment costs for the lactating parent. If the baby is also included in the visit, there may be a small copay if their deductible hasn’t been met—typically between $0–$50, depending on your plan and the Explanation of Benefits (EOB).

Currently Aetna doesn’t cover virtual appointments for lactation consultants, All appointments must be in person.

Currently working on getting in network with Banner Aetna.

Support for Families with AHCCCS, WIC, or EBT

Families with AHCCCS/state insurance—such as through United Healthcare or Mercy Care—are typically not eligible for private lactation coverage, as insurance considers lactation support to be provided through WIC.

For families seeking more in-depth, personalized lactation care, I offer discounted cash rates:

• Initial Visit (90 minutes): $100

• Follow-Up Visit (45–60 minutes): $75
  Available in-office or virtually.

I offer a limited number of sliding scale appointments each month on a first-come, first-served basis. To qualify, the family must currently be enrolled in AHCCCS, WIC, or EBT.

Important:
Please indicate your eligibility in the intake form before your appointment so we can verify pricing in advance. Feel free to reach out with any specific questions about eligibility or availability.

My goal is to make high-quality lactation support more accessible to all families who need it. Please fill out the insurance application - first steps to inquire about this option.
