How it works

How to get your Paramount-covered breast pump.

You don't need to call Paramount, fill out complicated forms, or figure out your coverage on your own. Here's how it works:

  1. 1

    Tell Us About Your Plan

    Enter your Paramount details and due date. It takes about two minutes. We'll verify your breast pump coverage instantly — no phone calls, no hold music.

  2. 2

    Choose Your Breast Pump

    Once your coverage is confirmed, you'll see exactly which breast pumps are available to you and what's fully covered. Pick the one that fits your life — whether you need a portable pump for work, a wearable for hands-free pumping, or a traditional double electric.

  3. 3

    We Handle the Rest

    We coordinate with your healthcare provider, process the Paramount claim, and ship your pump directly to your door, fully covered. Most moms receive their breast pump within 3–5 business days.

What's covered

What does Paramount cover for breastfeeding?

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

Breast Pumps

Most Paramount commercial, ACA marketplace, and Medicare Advantage plans cover one double electric breast pump per pregnancy as a preventive benefit under the Affordable Care Act, with no out-of-pocket cost on non-grandfathered plans. You can choose from trusted brands like Spectra, Medela, Momcozy, Lansinoh, Motif, Ardo, and Zomee. Many models are fully covered — and if you want a wearable or premium upgrade, Paramount lets you apply the allowed amount toward the cost of an upgrade pump so you only pay the difference. One Paramount-specific quirk: Paramount typically holds shipment of your pump until your third trimester (around 28 weeks), even if you order earlier.

Coverage: 1 breast pump per pregnancy | Fully covered options available | Upgrades available at reduced cost | Paramount ships in 3rd trimester (~28 weeks)

Breast Pump Replacement Parts

Valves, tubing, membranes, flanges, and shields wear out and need regular replacement to keep your pump working properly. Many Paramount plans cover functional replacement parts as part of the broader breastfeeding equipment benefit, but the exact replacement schedule and quantity allowance varies by plan — Paramount commercial, ACA, and Medicare Advantage all have slightly different DME supply benefits. Paramount routes replacement-parts coverage through in-network DME suppliers like 1 Natural Way, so we'll automatically check what your specific plan allows and notify you when you're eligible to reorder.

Coverage: Varies by plan | Functional parts (tubing, shields, valves, membranes) typically covered | 1NW automatically checks your replacement-parts eligibility

Breast Milk Storage Bags

Building a freezer stash or heading back to work? Most Paramount commercial, ACA marketplace, and Medicare Advantage plans cover breast milk storage bags as part of the breastfeeding-supplies benefit through your in-network DME supplier. Quantities and frequency vary by plan. We'll confirm exactly what your plan covers when we verify your benefits.

Coverage: Covered on most Paramount plans | Monthly resupply through in-network DME | Quantities verified at intake

Lactation Consultations

Under ACA preventive services, Paramount commercial, ACA marketplace, and Medicare Advantage plans cover comprehensive lactation support and counseling for the duration of breastfeeding, with no cost-sharing on in-network providers. Visits can be delivered in person or via telehealth. The exact number of covered visits depends on your plan; some Paramount plans follow the same 6-billing-code structure used by other major carriers, while others reimburse on a per-visit basis. 1 Natural Way offers access to IBCLC-certified lactation consultants.

Coverage: Covered as ACA preventive benefit | In-person or telehealth | Visit limits vary by plan | 1NW offers IBCLC-led classes

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 Paramount-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

Paramount breast pump coverage: your questions answered.

Yes. Under the Affordable Care Act, most Paramount commercial, ACA marketplace, and Medicare Advantage plans are required to cover the cost of a breast pump as a preventive benefit. This means many moms can get a breast pump at no out-of-pocket cost. Coverage varies by plan — some older "grandfathered" employer plans may have different guidelines. The fastest way to find out is to check your coverage through our free verification tool.
Through 1 Natural Way, Paramount members can choose from 38+ breast pump models across 14+ brands. Many popular options — like the Spectra S2 Plus, Medela Pump In Style Pro, Momcozy S12 Pro, and Lansinoh Thrive — are fully covered. Premium and wearable models (like the Elvie Stride, Willow Go, and Eufy S1 Pro) are available as upgrades where Paramount covers a portion and you pay the difference.
You can start the order at any point during pregnancy, but Paramount specifically requires 1 Natural Way to hold shipment of your pump until your third trimester — generally around 28 weeks. Most moms place their order in the second trimester so all the paperwork is squared away well before the 28-week ship date.
Yes. 1 Natural Way is an authorized Paramount breast pump provider and works directly with Paramount to coordinate your pump, handle the paperwork, and contact your healthcare provider for the required prescription. We've been serving Ohio and Michigan moms with Paramount coverage for years.
Paramount Advantage exited the Ohio Medicaid program in 2022 and sold its Medicaid contract to Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, with members transitioning to Anthem on February 1, 2023. If your current member ID card says Anthem Ohio Medicaid (Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield), check coverage through our Anthem page — we work with Anthem too. If you're on a current Paramount commercial, ACA, or Medicare Advantage plan, you're in the right place.
No. Medical Mutual of Ohio acquired Paramount's commercial, ACA, and Medicare Advantage business from ProMedica in May 2024, and Paramount continues to operate under the Paramount brand as a Medical Mutual subsidiary. Your benefits, member ID card, and provider network all stay under the Paramount name. Your breast pump benefit is unchanged.
Many Paramount plans do cover replacement parts like flanges, valves, tubing, and membranes, and some plans also cover breast milk storage bags. Coverage frequency and quantity vary widely by plan type. When you check your coverage with 1 Natural Way, we'll tell you exactly what's included on your specific plan — and we'll automatically notify you when you're eligible for a replacement-parts shipment.
Yes. Paramount covers lactation support and counseling as an ACA preventive benefit with no cost-sharing on in-network providers, available in person or via telehealth. The number of covered visits depends on your specific plan. 1 Natural Way offers access to IBCLC-certified lactation consultants (the highest certification level in the field), and our Moms First program also includes two IBCLC-led courses at no charge to supplement your covered visits.
Yes. After a contract dispute earlier in 2025, ProMedica and Medical Mutual/Paramount finalized a new multi-year agreement on November 14, 2025, that keeps ProMedica hospitals and physicians in-network for all Medical Mutual and Paramount commercial, ACA marketplace, and Medicare Advantage members through 2026.
