Cigna Coverage Guidelines
Your Cigna health insurance may cover more than just a breast pump. From replacement parts to professional breastfeeding support, many moms are surprised to learn just how much is included. Below are some of the most common breastfeeding-related benefits available through Cigna. Keep in mind that coverage can vary depending on your individual plan.
Breast Pumps
Most Cigna plans cover one manual or double electric breast pump for each pregnancy. Choose from trusted brands like Momcozy, Eufy, Spectra, Elvie and more. Many models are fully covered, and wearable or premium models are available for a small out-of-pocket cost.
Coverage Frequency: 1 per pregnancy
Note: Upgrades (like wearable pumps) may require partial payment.
Replacement Parts
Cigna may also help cover the cost of breast pump replacement parts like valves, tubing, membranes, and flanges. These parts need to be replaced regularly to ensure proper function and cleanliness. Depending on your plan, some items may be fully covered, while others may require a small out-of-pocket fee.
Coverage Frequency: Varies by plan; typically 1 shipment every 30 days after baby is born
Note: Some plans may partially cover or offer discounted kits.
Breast Milk Storage Bags
Many Cigna plans include breast milk storage bags to support safe and hygienic milk storage. These are perfect for moms returning to work or those building up a freezer stash.
Coverage Frequency: Up to 100 bags per month after baby is born
Note: Quantity limits may apply based on plan guidelines.
Lactation Consultations
Breastfeeding isn't always easy, but you don't have to do it alone. Cigna typically covers up to six visits with a certified lactation consultant, either in person or via telehealth. This benefit helps moms navigate latching issues, milk supply concerns, and more.
Coverage Frequency: Varies by plan
Gradient Compression Socks
Cigna may cover medical-grade compression socks to support blood flow, reduce swelling, and ease discomfort in the legs and feet. These socks are especially helpful during the later stages of pregnancy. Ideal for moms who are on their feet often or experience pregnancy-related leg fatigue.
Coverage Frequency: Up to 12 pairs per calendar year
Note: Quantity limits may apply based on plan guidelines. Coverage may be subject to your plan's deductible or copay.

What Customers Say
Christine Vargas
So easy to work with. After I submitted my info, 1 Natural Way did the rest. I didn’t have to worry about contacting my insurance or doctor’s office, they handled it and sent me emails with updates at each step. Highly recommend when you have so many things to think about and don’t know where to start with ordering your pump!
Carolyn Fess
Finally got around to ordering a new breast pump before returning to work with less than a week before my first day back. Ordered it on Sunday and had it delivered by Thursday! They took care of insurance and even got the prescription from my doctor's office in that time. I'm still so impressed!
Danielle Hanley
Super grateful for 1 Natural Way in helping me to navigate the insurance process for obtaining a new breast pump! So much easier experience than what I had to do years ago with my first baby. Highly recommend!
Frequently Asked Questions: Cigna Breast Pump Coverage and 1 Natural Way
Can I get a free breast pump through Cigna?
The Affordable Care Act requires health insurance plans provide breastfeeding supplies and support. This means that insurance providers must make available to you, an electric breast pump, manual breast pump or breast pump rental (unfortunately, there are some exceptions to these guidelines though).
The majority of Cigna plans we see cover a double electric insurance breast pump. With most Cigna plans, you have two options to get your insurance breast pump:
- Choose a free breast pump model. These pumps are fully covered - with free shipping - so there is $0 out-of-pocket for you!
- Select an “upgrade” breast pump model. 1 Natural Way will apply the allowable amount of your Cigna breast pump benefit to the pump and you contribute the rest. See how much you can save vs. paying retail prices for these pumps!
And remember, with both options, 1 Natural Way will file your claim and handle all of the paper work for you.
Do I need a Prior Authorization to get a breast pump through Cigna?
1 Natural Way is an Authorized Cigna Provider and there is no need for a Prior Authorization when you get your breast pump through us. This means that you won't have to wait a few days for an authorization like you do with other breast pump providers!
Does Cigna offer breast pump parts through insurance?
Your Cigna breast pump insurance also includes breast pump replacement parts and accessories that you can receive every month for no cost or greatly reduced cost.
When you sign up for 1 Natural Way's Resupply Program, we'll reach out to you each month to see what breast pump supplies you need. Simply choose your insurance covered breast pump parts, any additional breastfeeding supplies you need and check out.
We'll ship your order free and handle the insurance paperwork for you!
Can I get a breast pump like Elvie or Willow with my Cigna insurance?
Yes - as long as you have Cigna breast pump coverage as part of your plan, you can apply your benefits to a wearable breast pump like the Elvie Pump or Willow Generation 3.
Your Cigna insurance will not fully cover these popular breast pump models, however, so you will need to pay for part of the cost out-of-pocket. Breast pumps are HSA and FSA eligible, so you can use your account to pay the out-of-pocket amount.
