If you need a pump to support breastfeeding or chestfeeding, it is covered for Premera members through the Affordable Care Act. If you buy one through an in-network hospital or provider, they will submit a claim on your behalf. 

Most health plans must cover standard electric breast pumps as part of preventive health coverage. Rental fees for hospital-grade breast pumps may be covered, if medically necessary. Manual pumps aren't covered.

You can find a list of in-network breast pump providers for Alaska and Washington customers on Premera's website. If you live outside Alaska and Washington, please call the customer service number on the back of your ID card for help finding in-network providers.
