Insurance Covered Breast Pumps is a company dedicated to giving nursing mothers access to high quality breast pumps that come with little or no cost through insurance cover. The company has recently released information to help mothers choose the most ideal breast pumps.
According to the site, “When you first see those pink lines on a pregnancy test, you probably didn't think that months down the line you would be obsessing over breast pumps. Instead, you were probably focusing on tiny baby clothes and adorable nursery decoration. Yet, picking the right breast pump is an important decision for those mamas who want to breastfeed but also need some freedom. We've talked about how to find the right breast pump and how to find the right flanges. Today we want to explain the difference between an open system and closed system.
“A closed system pump has a barrier between the milk you pump and the pump itself. The barrier means that no milk or fluids can get into the pump helping to prevent contamination.
“An open pump system has no barrier. If milk gets into the tubing, then the tubing must be cleaned and dried before using it again. Please keep in mind it is very unlikely there will be contamination if milk is left inside the tubing, but it is a possibility.”
Not all closed systems are the same and Medela uses the term “overflow protection” instead of “closed system”.
Here is a description from the Medela website:
"It’s worth knowing that ‘closed system’ and ‘open system’ are not clinical or medical definitions, and different breast pump manufacturers may use them differently. For this reason, we at Medela prefer the term ‘overflow protection’, as that’s the milk barrier’s main purpose: to stop milk from overflowing and entering the pump.
“In addition, there’s actually no such thing as a completely ‘closed-system’ breast pump – all breast pumps need some air to flow in and out of them so the vacuum can work.”

Our goal is to provide quality breast pumps and accessories to help create a positive breastfeeding experience for both moms and babies.
