HOW DO I KNOW IF MY INSURANCE PLAN COVERS DIETITIAN SERVICES?

You can contact your insurance company directly to verify your coverage for dietitian services. Coverage may vary depending on your specific plan and policy.

​

Questions to ask your provider:​

  • Does my plan cover services from a registered dietitian?

  • What is the maximum amount reimbursed per year, and when does the coverage year reset?

  • Does the plan cover 100% of each session up to the yearly maximum, or is there a per-session maximum?

WHAT IF MY INSURANCE COMPANY IS NOT PART OF YOUR DIRECT BILLING NETWORK?

No problem. We’ll provide you with a payment receipt that you can submit to your provider for reimbursement.

WHAT IS THE PROCESS FOR USING MY BENEFITS?

When you book online, you'll have the option to add your insurance information in our intake form.

After your appointment, we'll process your payment with your insurance provider. If there's any remaining balance, we'll charge the credit card on file for your convenience. We will email you the payment receipt.
