I used Byram. So I would maybe check them out too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-a-medela-freestyle-through-uhc-whats-my-cheapest-provider#post-2790172 Tue, 05 Dec 2017 13:21:31 +0000 DesertDreams88 2790172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Looks like I jumped the gun.... I filled out their online form, they contacted my insurance and created an account for me, and now when I log on the price for the freestyle is just $175.00.... I can do that! Obvi I'll just keep this post up for future reference for anyone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-a-medela-freestyle-through-uhc-whats-my-cheapest-provider#post-2790147 Tue, 05 Dec 2017 12:42:40 +0000 Jennibenni 2790147@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not sure how it works as far as different insurance plans, etc. but I got a Freestyle through Mckesson and it was a $200 upgrade fee. The other provider my insurance uses only offered an Ameda pump, I think it was Byron? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-a-medela-freestyle-through-uhc-whats-my-cheapest-provider#post-2790116 Tue, 05 Dec 2017 11:26:28 +0000 DesertDreams88 2790116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With LO in 2015, I ordered a PISA "Backpack style" through Aeroflow with UHC. It was an upgrade option, about $100 I think. I *think* I remember the Freestyle upgrade option being about $200. Well, I'm looking on Aeroflow's website currently, and it says the Medela Freestyle is $385. Now I'm not sure if that's with insurance or different with different insurances, but ugh. Any chance of getting a better price through a different provider? Obviously same insurance. </p>
