Will my health insurance cover my visit?

Today most health insurance plans recognize that nutritional counseling greatly reduces future medical costs and improves overall health. And while insurance varies, many policies will cover Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) for diagnoses that are deemed “medically necessary” such as diabetes, hypertension (high blood pressure), unexplained weight loss/gain, hyperlipidemia (high cholesterol), gastrointestinal problems, eating disorders, kidney disease, etc. Inquire if your health care insurance plan offers this coverage.

We do not bill for insurance but will provide you with a Super-Bill (medical receipt of payment) to submit to your insurance in order to obtain reimbursement. We are happy to supply any additional information that may be requested. Please note that MNT can be tax deductable and if you have a flexible spending account nutrition services may be used by this account as well.

Payment is due at time of service. Payment may be in the form of cash, check, or credit card.
