Consultations

When you access our booking calendar, you will see both an “Insurance” and “Self-Pay” option. If you have been approved with an in-network company, you’ll select “Insurance” and the appropriate consult type. You will select “Initial” consults for our first meeting together. You will select “Follow-up” for continuing consults.

If you are with an out-of-network health insurance, you are considered “Self-Pay” and will select this option. Once your invoice has been paid, we can submit an out of network claim on your behalf for potential reimbursement from your health insurance provider based on coverage.

Alternatively, you are also welcome to request a Superbill that you can turn into your health insurance company for potential reimbursement after the full amount has been paid.

For self-pay clients, we accept cash, check, Visa, MasterCard, HSA/FSA cards, Discover, and AMEX through SquareUp.

We will issue invoices with an extended due date and payment plans in order to accomodate all families who need care.

Here are the companies our network biller currently works with and has a high probability of no out of pocket expense, typically with three consults covered:

• BCBS PPO
• Anthem BCBS PPO
• Cigna PPO
• United PPO

If you have a policy with one of the listed insurance companies:

Obtain pre-approval for your three visits by following these instructions:

• Click HERE to visit our biller and check your plan!
• Select “Yes” for the first question
• Enter “emBody Lactation” or “McKale Fleming”
• Fill in the requested personal information
• Submit your pre-approval, and an email will arrive within 24 hours (usually 2 hours) with your details
• Once approved, you may book an appointment under “Insurance” in IntakeQ
• If you were not in network, please book your appointment as “Self-Pay” and a claim can be submitted on your behalf

If your health insurance company is not in network with us, we will submit an out of network claim for you. Reimbursement is dependent upon several factors such as coverage, deductibles and consult type.
