FAQs
Will these be covered by insurance?
The Button Huggie is currently not covered by insurance but the Ezalife team is working towards reimbursement and HSA/FSA coverage.
Can you use them on a newborn?
Yes. Button Huggies are designed with soft, skin-friendly material that’s gentle enough for infant skin while still providing a secure fit.
How long can each Button Huggie® be worn?
Each base is intended to last anywhere between 4-8 days, depending on how often you bathe your child, and other factors.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin or allergy-prone patients?
Button Huggies are made with breathable, latex-free materials and are designed to be gentle on skin. Many caregivers use them for individuals with skin sensitivities.
Can Button Huggies be used during nighttime feeds or sleep?
They are designed to help keep the tube secure during periods of rest, including nighttime feeds. This may help minimize movement and leakage while sleeping.
How does Button Huggie® differ from traditional G-tube belts or wraps?
Unlike reusable wraps or belts, Button Huggies are lightweight, disposable, and easy to apply—without Velcro, straps, or adhesives. They’re designed to fit into daily routines while providing a comfortable, low-profile securement option.
