For both my pregnancies my insurance company assigned me a case manager. I didn't have to initiate it. Both times my case manager was a huge help in getting the things I needed approved. I wonder if you can request one since your baby will have ongoing medical issues?
I hope they cover the pump for you. Is there anything available to help you pay for the expensive bottles? Those are obviously a medical necessity too.
For what it's worth, I've read that a hosptial grade pump doesn't really work any better than a Medela PIS. I have no first-hand experience with a hospital grade pump.
