Home, Office, Virtual, and Prenatal Visits covered by your insurance or self-pay (insurance reimbursement) options
Will your insurance cover our visit?
If you have any of the following insurance plans:
Blue Cross Blue Shield, Anthem, VA CCN- Optum East, UnitedHealthcare, UMR, All Savers, Oxford Health Plan, Surest, Regence BCBS of WA, or if your insurance card has the TNOA or Multicare logo on it (see picture below)
please sign up for a home, virtual, or office visit with me through this portal. I’m contracted with The Lactation Network (TLN) for the above insurance plans. If your insurance is accepted through them you will not receive a bill for services and can book multiple appointments with me as needed at no cost to you. Using the TLN link from my site pre-matches you to me (Valerie Wiens) and my practice (Latch & Flow Lactation) as your provider. If you are uninsured, have a different plan, or wish to self-pay please book directly through my site using the links under the service descriptions below.

Prenatal Consult
Virtual or Office: $100 self pay or check insurance coverage (above)*
Prenatal preparation and education about what nursing your baby is going to be like is probably the most valuable thing you can do to avoid common issues! Also appropriate for discussing preparing for breastfeeding issues that may have arisen with previous babies. If desired I can also do a breast exam to check for any anatomy or breast development issues. I encourage partners and anyone involved in baby-care and/or care of the new mother to join these consults. Home visits possible upon request.
60 minute “what to expect” personalized consult. Virtual or at my home office in Renton WA
