Aeroflow Health Expands Access to Lactation Consultations to Virginia’s Medicaid Population
May 16 2024 - 9:00AM
Aeroflow Health, a pioneering healthcare company that leverages
cutting-edge technology to support the delivery of medical products
and services, today announced it is now servicing the Virginia
Medicaid population with lactation consultations. Aeroflow Health’s
partnership with Virginia Medicaid and its managed care
organizations will connect new mothers to a robust network of
lactation consultants and other maternal health services at little
to no cost to them. The partnership with Virginia Medicaid follows
additional partnerships within the state to broaden coverage
access, including Aetna Better Health Virginia, Molina Healthcare
Virginia, and Sentara Health of Virginia.
According to Virginia's Department of Medical Assistance
Services, Virginia Medicaid covers one in three births in the
state, totaling more than 37,000 births. As new mothers navigate
the complexities of early motherhood, breastfeeding can bring its
own set of challenges. Lactation consultations are a part of the
many solutions and services offered to new mothers through Aeroflow
Breastpumps, which specializes in helping pregnant and nursing
mothers receive pregnancy and postpartum recovery items through
their insurance.
Under the new Virginia Medicaid partnership, Aeroflow
Breastpumps will now offer a variety of breastfeeding support and
services, including one-on-one lactation consultations and online
courses to access when convenient for new moms. Online classes and
consultations cover breastfeeding basics, pumping and storing
breastmilk, and how to overcome hurdles along the way.
“Aeroflow’s mission is to improve postpartum health outcomes for
new mothers. Supporting mothers in their breastfeeding journey by
providing access to the necessary resources such as supplies,
lactation education, and community is just one way we can care for
new moms,” said Nicole Peluso, IBCLC, CD, CAHPE, Manager of
Lactation Services & Perinatal Education at Aeroflow
Breastpumps. “We look forward to providing personalized support to
the expecting and new mothers of Virgina through this partnership
with Virgina Medicaid.”
Aeroflow Breastpumps specializes in helping pregnant and nursing
mothers, from pregnancy support items and compression socks to
breast pumps, c-section bandages and more. Aeroflow Breastpumps
offers a large selection of medical devices and services to provide
comfort and support to mothers at every stage of motherhood.
Expecting and new mothers in Virginia who use Medicaid, Aetna
Better Health Virginia, Molina Healthcare Virginia, and Sentara
