Types of breast pumps

Pick by how and where you’ll pump. Most plans cover a pump of each of the first three kinds.

Double electric: A motor with tubing to two flanges, so you pump both sides at once. The most adjustable kind and a good fit for pumping every day or exclusively. Many are rechargeable now, like the Spectra S1 Plus and Zomee Z2.
Wearable: Cordless pumps that sit inside your bra, with no tubes or bottles hanging off. Good for pumping at work, on the go or while you hold the baby: the Zomee Fit, Momcozy M5, eufy S2 and Willow Go.
Hands-free cups: A double electric that pumps into soft cups in your bra instead of bottles, the middle ground between the two above. Try the Zomee Z2 with Hands-Free Collection Cups or Medela Freestyle Hands-free.
Hospital-strength, closed system: A closed system keeps milk out of the tubing and motor, and a stronger motor helps when you’re building or keeping up a supply. The Spectra Synergy Gold has two motors, one per side.
Manual: A hand-squeezed or silicone suction pump: small, quiet and inexpensive, good as a backup. We carry electric and wearable pumps, since most plans cover one of those in full.

How much does a breast pump cost without insurance?

At retail, most double electric and wearable pumps cost about $150 to $550, and a basic manual pump about $15 to $35. Through insurance, most moms pay $0 for a covered pump. If you want a premium pump your plan doesn’t cover in full, you pay only the upgrade fee, and you see it before you order.

Which breast pumps are covered by insurance?

It depends on your plan. Most plans cover at least one double electric pump in full, and on most of the plans we work with that includes wearables like the Zomee Fit, Zomee W1 and Lansinoh DiscreetDuo Flow. Premium wearables such as the eufy S2 Pro or Momcozy W1 often carry an upgrade fee. Start your order, pick your state and plan, and you’ll see every pump you qualify for with its price to you.

Questions moms ask about breast pumps through insurance

Is a breast pump covered by insurance?

For most plans, yes. Under the Affordable Care Act, most health plans, including Marketplace plans, cover a breast pump, and most moms pay $0 for a standard double electric pump. Some plans charge an upgrade fee for premium or wearable models, and we show you that amount before you order.

Can I get a wearable breast pump through insurance?

Yes. On most of the plans we work with, the Zomee Fit, Zomee W1 and Lansinoh DiscreetDuo Flow wearables are covered at $0. Premium wearables like the eufy S2 Pro, Momcozy W1, Willow or Elvie may carry an upgrade fee, depending on your plan.

Do I need a prescription for a breast pump?

Yes, insurance requires one, but you don’t need it in hand to order. Give us your doctor’s details when you order and we request the prescription for you.

When can I get my breast pump?

You can order any time during pregnancy. Most plans let your pump ship about 30 days before your due date, and some allow it earlier. TRICARE covers the pump from 27 weeks of pregnancy.

Which breast pump is best?

The one that fits how you’ll pump. If you’ll pump every day or exclusively, start with a double electric like the Spectra S1 Plus or Zomee Z2. If you’ll pump at work or on the go, a wearable like the Zomee Fit or eufy S2 saves you the tubes and bottles. Our comparison chart lines up suction, battery life and more for every pump we carry.

Is there a place to get a breast pump near me?

You don’t need a store nearby. We bill your insurance and ship the pump to your door, and covered pumps ship free. Orders go out once your coverage and prescription are confirmed, usually within a few business days.

Does Medicaid cover a breast pump?

Many state Medicaid plans do, and the pumps you can choose depend on your state and plan. See Medicaid breast pumps for the states and plans we work with.

What if my insurance doesn’t cover the pump I want?

We tell you your options before you owe anything: a pump your plan covers in full, an upgrade fee for the one you want, or a self-pay price. There are no surprise charges.

Get your breast pump through insurance

Tell us your plan and your doctor, and we do the rest: the coverage check, the prescription and the claim. If your plan covers a different pump than the one you picked, we tell you before anything ships.
