Insurance

Breastfeeding support, lactation consultant

I accept insurance for lactation visit coverage!

Many families receive 6+ visits at no out-of-pocket cost. 

Please read the entire page to find the correct way to verify for your insurance plan/company.

I am in network directly with Aetna and BCBST. I am also in network with BlueCare, Amerigroup – Wellpoint, and United Healthcare Community Plan for TennCare.

If any of these insurances covers your family, please make sure that Angela Plunkett or Tennessee Lactation Care is listed as an in-network provider for your insurance plan. If you would like to file under TennCare it MUST be your PRIMARY plan.

 I am in network with Cigna via Wildflower. Please use this link to approve your Cigna plan for lactation visits with Tennessee Lactation Care:

I am in network with BlueCare, Amerigroup/WellPoint and United Health Care for coverage of Tenn Care/Medicaid insurances. Please email/text a photo of your insurance card – front and back so I can verify coverage.

How to use your 6+ visits covered by your insurance?
