How does payment work? If you and your baby both have United Healthcare or CDPHP insurance, we will bill your insurance directly. (More about insurance here.) For all others, you’ll pay at the time of your appointment. We accept Venmo, credit and debit cards, HSA/FSA cards, and PayPal. We will provide you with a superbill receipt that you may use to seek reimbursement from your insurance.

 

Can I use my Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flex Spending Account (FSA) to pay for services? Yes! You may use an HSA/FSA card to pay for lactation support services. You can also use HSA/FSA funds for supplies.
