Federal law under the ACA requires health insurance plans in Virginia to cover breastfeeding equipment and support as a preventive benefit with no out-of-pocket costs. This mandate applies to employer-sponsored group health plans, marketplace plans sold through the Virginia marketplace, and individual insurance policies issued in the state.
Virginia has a diverse population and insurance landscape. Northern Virginia communities like Arlington, Alexandria, and Fairfax are home to many federal employees who carry FEHB plans, while the Hampton Roads region — including Virginia Beach, Norfolk, and Newport News — has a large military population covered by TRICARE. Both FEHB and TRICARE plans cover breast pumps. Major commercial carriers in Virginia include Anthem BCBS, CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield (in Northern Virginia), Cigna, and UnitedHealthcare. Pumps for Mom works with all of these plans to verify your breast pump benefits and deliver your pump at zero cost.
Virginia Medicaid provides health coverage to eligible low-income residents, and the state also operates FAMIS (Family Access to Medical Insurance Security), which extends health insurance to children and pregnant women who do not qualify for traditional Medicaid but meet income guidelines. Virginia Medicaid is delivered through managed care organizations that provide comprehensive benefits, including maternity care and breastfeeding supplies.
The Virginia Medicaid MCOs include Virginia Premier, Optima Health, Anthem HealthKeepers, Aetna Better Health of Virginia, Molina Healthcare of Virginia, and UnitedHealthcare Community Plan of Virginia. Breast pumps are covered under the maternity benefits offered by each of these plans. Pumps for Mom coordinates with all Virginia Medicaid MCOs and can help eligible mothers receive a breast pump through their managed care coverage at no cost.
Takes less than 60 seconds. Most moms pay $0.
