What's covered

What does Cigna cover for breastfeeding?

Your Cigna health insurance likely covers more than you think. Under the Affordable Care Act, most Cigna plans include breastfeeding support and equipment at no out-of-pocket cost. Here's what's typically included:

Breast Pumps

Most Cigna medical plans cover one double electric breast pump per pregnancy as a preventive women's-health benefit under the ACA. You become eligible to order once you reach the 28th week of pregnancy, and a prescription isn't required for a standard manual or electric pump — only for a hospital-grade pump. You can choose from brands like Spectra, Medela, Momcozy, Lansinoh, Motif, and more, with many models fully covered. If you want a wearable or premium upgrade, Cigna's discounted rate applies so you only pay the difference.

Coverage: 1 breast pump per pregnancy | Eligible at 28 weeks of pregnancy | No prescription required for standard pumps | Upgrades at Cigna-discounted rate

Breast Pump Replacement Parts

Valves, tubing, membranes, flanges, and shields wear out and need replacing to keep your pump working safely. Cigna covers functional replacement parts under its preventive policy when ordered through an approved DME supplier — typically 1 shipment every 30 days after baby is born. Some items may be fully covered while others may require a small out-of-pocket fee.

Coverage: Typically 1 shipment every 30 days after birth | Functional parts (tubing, shields, valves, flanges) covered | Some items may have a small out-of-pocket fee

Breast Milk Storage Bags

Building a freezer stash or heading back to work? Cigna covers up to 100 breast milk storage bags per month after baby is born. They ship automatically through your approved DME supplier's resupply program. Quantity limits may apply based on your plan guidelines.

Coverage: Up to 100 bags per month after birth | Ships through DME resupply program | Quantities may vary by plan

Lactation Consultations

Cigna covers up to 6 visits with a certified lactation consultant per pregnancy, either in person or via telehealth. Visits are covered at 100% with no copay or deductible when you use an in-network provider. Cigna contracts with Wildflower Health and Aeroflow Health to deliver virtual IBCLC care; some sources note additional visits are possible when booked through Wildflower.

Coverage: Up to 6 lactation visits per pregnancy | In-person or virtual | no cost-share in-network | Some plans offer additional visits via Wildflower

Gradient Compression Socks

Pregnancy and postpartum recovery can put extra pressure on your legs — Cigna covers gradient compression socks as part of its maternity benefit. Eligible moms can receive up to 12 pairs per calendar year. Quantity limits may apply based on plan guidelines, and coverage may be subject to your plan's deductible or copay.

Coverage: Up to 12 pairs per calendar year | Helps with circulation and swelling | Quantities may vary by plan

Moms First

Do You Need Both a Tabletop and a Wearable Pump?

Most IBCLCs recommend it. A tabletop double electric pump gives you the strongest suction and is the best option for building and maintaining your milk supply — especially in those early weeks. A wearable pump gives you freedom to move around, work, or handle life while you pump.

The catch? Insurance typically covers one pump per pregnancy, not both.

The Moms First Program

That's why we created Moms First. When you get your insurance-covered pump through 1 Natural Way, you can add a second pump at 20% off the retail price — so you're covered for every situation without paying full price elsewhere.

Every Moms First member also gets two IBCLC-led courses at no charge — Breastfeeding Basics and Nutrition 101 — so you have expert guidance from the start.

What that looks like:

  • Your Cigna-covered pump at no cost to you (tabletop or wearable — your choice)
  • A second pump at 20% off retail through Moms First
  • Two IBCLC-led courses at no charge included with every Moms First membership

FAQ

Cigna breast pump coverage: your questions answered.

Yes. Under the Affordable Care Act, most Cigna plans cover the cost of a breast pump as a preventive women's-health benefit — meaning most moms are fully covered. Cigna's own member flyer confirms you can qualify for a pump at no additional cost once you reach the 28th week of pregnancy. The fastest way to confirm what your specific plan covers is to run our free coverage check.
Cigna's published policy says you become eligible at the 28th week of pregnancy — that's a bit later than some other carriers. Most moms start the process right at week 28 so the pump arrives before their due date. You can also order postpartum if you haven't already claimed your pump for this pregnancy.
For a standard manual or electric pump — no prescription is required. Cigna is one of the few major carriers that waives the script requirement for everyday pumps, which speeds things up. A prescription is only needed if you're ordering a hospital-grade pump (which may also require precertification).
Through 1 Natural Way, Cigna members can choose from 38+ pump models across 14+ brands. Popular options like the Spectra S2 Plus, Medela Pump In Style Pro, Momcozy S12 Pro, Motif Aura Glow, and Lansinoh Thrive are fully covered. Wearable and premium models (like the Elvie Stride, Willow Go, and Eufy S1 Pro) are available as upgrades at Cigna's discounted rate — you only pay the difference.
Yes. Cigna covers functional replacement parts — tubing, breast shields, flanges, valves, bottles, and caps — under its preventive policy (HCPCS codes A4281–A4286). Many members qualify for up to about 12 replacement supply kits per year, though the exact quantity depends on your specific plan. When you verify your coverage with us, we'll tell you exactly what your plan includes.
Yes — most Cigna plans now include storage bags as part of breastfeeding supplies. We'll ship them automatically through our resupply program so you don't have to reorder each month. Quantity depends on your plan.
Yes. Cigna covers lactation counseling at 100% with no copay or deductible when you see an in-network IBCLC — and virtual visits are covered the same as in-person. Cigna's policy guideline encourages about 6 visits per pregnancy across the third trimester and postpartum period (and visits booked through Cigna's Wildflower Health partner may be effectively unlimited). 1 Natural Way includes IBCLC-certified consultants, and our Moms First program adds two IBCLC-led courses at no charge to supplement your covered visits.
1 Natural Way works with Cigna members to provide breast pumps and breastfeeding supplies. Cigna routes pump benefits through its CareCentrix DME network with a defined list of approved suppliers, and we coordinate the verification, claim, and provider documentation on your behalf. We've helped moms access their insurance-covered pumps since 2014 and ship across all 50 states.
