If you have Aetna insurance and you're looking for breastfeeding support, you may be wondering whether your visits with a lactation consultant are covered. The good news is — they likely are!

Does Aetna Cover Lactation Consultants?

Under the Affordable Care Act, most commercial insurance plans including Aetna are required to cover lactation support services at no cost to you. This includes visits with an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC).
