How do I check my insurance benefits for nutrition coverage?
Most insurance plans cover both medical nutrition therapy and preventative nutrition counseling. To understand your benefits call the number on the back of your insurance card and ask these questions:
- What are my nutrition counseling benefits for CPT codes 97802 and 97803?
- Are telehealth visits covered?
- Is there a limit to the number of visits covered per year?
- Does it matter what I'm receiving nutrition counseling for?
- Do I need a physician referral or prior authorization?
- Will there be a co-pay, co-insurance or deductible that I need to meet?
What type of insurance do you take?
I am in-network with:
- Blue Cross Blue Shield
- United Healthcare
- PacificSource
- Cigna
- (Aetna coming soon!)
What if my insurance doesn't cover it?
If your insurance doesn't cover nutrition services or I am out-of-network with your insurance company, cost of services are discounted and are due at the time of service (HSA/FSA eligible). I can provide you a Superbill to submit to your insurance for reimbursement but you will need to contact your insurance company for reimbursement rates.
- Cost for first appointment - $180
- Cost for 60 minute follow-up appointment - $130
- Cost for 30 minute follow-up appointment - $65
What if i need a physician referral?
If your insurance company requires a referral, contact your physician and have them fax the referral to (866) 761- 7512.
