Hi Isabella, Did you find the coding resource for Pediatricians from the AAP? http://www.aap.org/breastfeeding/CODING.pdf This does discuss billing for Nurse Practitioners and Physician assistants and another different section for allied health practitioners.
The newsletters from the Section on breastfeeding also have some case studies on breastfeeding with coding. I hope this helps, Rachel Wahl RN IBCLC
