Insurance FAQ
Use Your Insurance to See A Dietitian
We recommend that all patients contact their insurance company to verify coverage and benefits prior to services delivered. If a referral is required, we will work with your provider to obtain that.
If medical nutrition therapy is not a benefit of your insurance plan, per billing policy, you are responsible for paying the self-pay rates of $200 per initial session and $100 per follow-up session.
NOTE: You can use an FSA/HSA account to pay for co-pays or self-pay costs incurred.
Questions to ask your insurance provider:
1. Does my plan cover medical nutrition therapy? (CPT codes 97802/97803)
2. Is a referral required for medical nutrition therapy services?
3. How many visits are allowed per year?
4. Do I have a deductible I need to meet?
5. Is there a co-pay or co-insurance for each visit?
6. Does my health insurance plan cover telehealth?
