Medela Partners with Covered Commerce to Launch ‘Medela Insurance Connect’: Providing Seamless Access for Insurance-Covered Breast Pumps for All Moms
New digital platform helps expectant and new mothers verify eligibility and access Medela’s world-class breast pumps through a seamless online experience
McHenry, Illinois, May 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Medela, the breast pump brand trusted by millions of moms worldwide and the #1 breast pump brand used in U.S. hospitals1, announced a new partnership with Covered Commerce to launch Medela Insurance Connect, a digital platform designed to make it easier for moms in the United States to access insurance-covered breast pumps.
