Breast pumps & suppliers

Harvard Pilgrim covers one manual or electric breast pump per pregnancy when:

• You have a prescription from your provider, and
• With your prescription, you receive the pump from a durable medical equipment (DME) supplier in your plan’s network

With an order from your provider, we cover one hospital-grade electric pump rental in place of a manual or electric pump.

Please make sure the DME supplier you plan to buy your breast pump from participates in your plan’s provider network:

• Log in to your secure member account
• Select “Find a provider”
• Select “Search by Name or Facility”
• Enter the supplier’s name in the search field
• Select “Search Providers”

In-network DME suppliers will submit a claim to Harvard Pilgrim on your behalf.
