Breast pumps are covered. Breast milk coolers should be too.
It's been too long that moms have had to settle for half the solution. If you pump the milk, you need a safe place to store it until it reaches your baby. That's why we built two things here. Get help asking your insurer for no-cost-sharing coverage for the Mila's Keeper products you already bought. And add your story to the case we're building for a federal billing code and explicit guidance language, the same kind of case that got breast pumps covered.
Every Mila's Keeper product is already FSA/HSA eligible; save your itemized receipt and submit it directly, no letter needed. This tool is for the harder ask: getting your insurer to cover it at no cost, the same way pumps already are.

Your draft
Your letter is now ready. Copy it straight into an email, or download it as a Word file to be emailed or mailed instead. Either way, include a copy of the itemized receipt you received by email when you placed your Mila's Keeper order. Can't find that receipt? Email us at customerlove@milaskeeper.com and we'll help you track it down.
Some insurers ask for a formal letter of medical necessity before they'll cover breastfeeding equipment. That letter has to come from your OB, pediatrician, or lactation consultant, not from you. Bring or send them this template. It's meant for them to review, personalize, and sign. Please don't submit it under your own name.
One more thing
Want this to change for everyone, not just you?
Mila's Keeper is filing a federal application in January 2027 to give breast milk coolers their own billing code. It's the same kind of case that got breast pumps covered. Real stories are the strongest evidence we can bring, and yours could help make history for moms across the country. Thank you for helping give all moms access to breast milk coolers.
Step 1 of 2
Who's speaking
Used to credit you, and so we can confirm this is a real story before including it in anything official.
A short description to go with your name, like "Jane Smith, a worried parent."
Required to verify this is a real, unique submission. It will not be published or shared beyond that verification.
We will not share your email with anyone else, and it is never used for marketing.
Step 2 of 3
Your story
Existing coverage language just says "breast milk storage supplies," which is written too broadly, leaving it open to interpretation and easy to deny. Help us explain why extended cold storage through a breast milk cooler is critically needed for breastfeeding success and for your baby. Be specific, as details matter and are what resonates best.
Step 3 of 3
Your letter
By submitting, your story will be shared, along with other letters, to help make this case, including in what we send to federal regulators. Only the name you gave will identify you, unless you have included other identifying details yourself. You can ask us to remove it at any time.

Thank you.
Your story is on file for the January filing. Real accounts like yours are exactly what turns "we think this should be covered" into "here's proof it should be." If you shared your email, I'll keep you posted as this moves forward. I'm grateful you're a part of this historical push to support breastfeeding moms.
