Why Shannon?
I provide relaxed, infant-centered care in a home-like setting. My primary service area is the Bryan/College Station area. Most clients meet with me at my Lactation Center. Hospital and home visits are available within a 20 mile radius of my location. I have met with clients in their homes throughout eleven near-by counties. (Extended travel charge of $1/mile per visit may apply.)
Contact your insurance company about your lactation coverage benefit. I am not a preferred provider for any insurance network. I choose to work "fee-for-hire", which means that even if lactation services are covered by your health insurance plan, I will not file the insurance for you. I can provide you with a medical-grade "superbill" so that you may file your own claim with your insurance company for a possible reimbursement. Please be aware that you are most likely to have your claim approved if you have received both pre-authorization approval from your insurance company and/or a written referral from your doctor before you see me.
I accept Cash, Check, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, Debit, and Health Flex Cards (HFSA).
