Self-pay clients will be provided with a superbill to file with their insurance for reimbursement.

I am very pleased to now offer insurance covered visits for clients with Aetna, United Healthcare, Cigna, and Blue Cross Blue Shield, as part of Cass Christopher Lactation Consulting.

AETNA, MERITAIN (& most other Aetna partners): Accepted. Confirm that Cassandra Christopher is showing up as “in-network” with your plan. For visits where both the lactating parent & baby are assessed, claims will be sent for both patients. Specialist co-pays/co-insurance may apply for infants and prenatal consultations. Aetna 1199 plans not covered in NYC.

UNITED HEALTHCARE (& most UHC partners including OXFORD FREEDOM, OXFORD LIBERTY & UMR): Accepted. Confirm that Cassandra Christopher is showing up as “in-network” with your plan. For visits where both the lactating parent & baby are assessed, claims will be sent for both patients.

CIGNA: CCLC can successfully bill many CIGNA plans as an out of network provider however it is imperative as of 2024 to call Cigna to confirm lactation care with an out of network IBCLC is covered under your plan before your visit (covered care will vary from plan to plan, only CIGNA can inform you what to expect).

ANTHEM/BCBS: Accepted. Confirm that Cassandra Christopher is showing up as “in-network” with your plan. Anthem/BCBS may have patient responsibility portions such as co-pays and co-insurance for certain visit types.
