While many health insurance companies recognize the significant value nutrition plays in maintaining good health, not all companies offer nutrition counseling as a member benefit. It is recommended that you contact your insurance company to confirm that your individual health plan includes nutrition consultation benefits. Otherwise, please refer to the Rates listed on the website.

Be sure to check out the Preventive Nutrition Counseling benefits page, as well, to learn about no-cost sharing benefits for your visit!

It is your responsibility to contact your primary care physician’s office and request a referral if your insurance health plan requires one for medical appointments. A $50 fee will incur if cancellation notice is not given 24 hours prior to a scheduled appointment. Please bring your insurance card with you.

Full payment or co-payment is due at the time of service.

  • Cash or personal checks are accepted.

  • Selected credit cards transactions are accepted (see Rates)

  • Receipts will be provided for flexible spending programs, which you can use to submit for reimbursement

 

Please note that co-payments to specialists may be different than ones for your primary care physician visits. Some plans have tiers for different levels of care, as well. If you have questions in regards to the amount of your copayment, please contact Member Services of your insurance carrier to clarify, prior to your visit. Any outstanding bills should be paid within 30 days of receiving your statement.

 

*Please note that Medicare only covers nutritional counseling if you have diabetes or kidney disease. Any other reason will require you to sign an Advance Beneficiary Notice of Non- Coverage that makes you responsible for the payment of service.
