We have a strong interest in making our services available to as many women as possible. Upon your agreement, our billing service will submit bills to your insurance company to try to get the costs of our services covered so that there are minimal out of pocket costs to you.
The cost of some of our classes, lactation consultations, doula services and some products are often 100% covered by your health insurance. The following plans typically provide this coverage:
- Aetna
- Cigna
- United Healthcare
If you are curious about your plan’s coverage, it is best that we consult together to understand your coverage. Often, calling your insurance company directly will not give you accurate benefits information for our types of services.
For doula clients, the sooner in your pregnancy that you book our services, the greater chance that you will have minimal out of pocket costs. Services are billed to your insurance company on a per visit claim (not as a total doula package). Usually, the more visits, the more reimbursed, so the sooner you contract with us, the more financially advantageous. To ensure that you have coverage, we recommend that your first claim is submitted prior to 30 weeks. Please do not wait until the last minute to book us for doula services. Early birds wind up with the most savings!
