Unfortunately at this time South Carolina Medicaid does not cover lactation services with us. We hope to remedy this and be able to work with Medicaid in the future as the result of our advocacy efforts.

In the mean time, here are some ways you may still be able to receive care:

• You are allowed to be a self pay patient with us.
• If you have Medicaid you qualify for WIC. WIC has breastfeeding peer counselors and lactation consultants on staff. If you need to see an IBCLC your peer counselor can help make those arrangements.
• Check with your pediatric office, several have lactation consultants in their offices or on their staff.
• Prisma Richland offers outpatient lactation, call them at 803-434-5618 to schedule.
