    We verify your insurance as a courtesy, but it is the responsibility of the client.

We encourage you to call your health insurance company before an appointment and say that you would like to verify your benefits. Here is a guide for you when you call:

  1. Do they cover nutrition counseling, for CPT Codes 97802, 97803 and 97804?

  2. If they ask for a diagnosis code, use code Z71.3 - which is for preventative nutrition.

  3. Ask how many visits are covered per calendar year, and whether or not you have a copay.

If I am out of network with your insurance, you may still be able to use your health insurance for the visit! Just ask your health insurance company if you have “out of network” benefits for the above CPT codes (97802 & 97803) and diagnosis code Z71.3 (for plans other than Aetna and UHC). For Aetna and UHC, just ask for medical nutrition therapy coverage for the CPT codes above - including many visits.

TIPS IF YOU HAVE A HSA ACCOUNT

If your health insurance plan is not listed above, or you have a high deductible that must be met before the insurance covers any services, or you do not wish to use your health insurance, you can use your HSA account to pay for nutrition visits!

That means using pre-tax dollars for an investment in your health…what could be worth more?!
