Kathy,
Of course there are codes for lactation...have you seen this? http://www.aap.org/breastfeeding/PDF/coding.pdf
in reference to the above, see also: http://www.aap.org/breastfeeding/PDF/Newsletter%201205.pdf
Why can't you do it all (with Dr collaboration when required)...simply bill differently/appropriately for each situation...may take some creative thinking/positive attitude on the office managers part to work it out. Good luck, Annalee Hulburt, IBCLC (private practice)
