It depends on your health insurance plan. Most private insurance policies now cover Nutrition Therapy for disordered eating diagnoses because of the Federal Mandate under 21st Century Cares Act, 2017.
- I am an HMSA provider.
- Tricare may cover with special authorization.
NOTE: As of this writing (2020), Medicaid and Medicare do not cover Nutrition Therapy for disordered eating.
When insurance doesn’t cover sessions, many of my patients take advantage of my pre-paid discounts. Or they use a credit card to pay for their nutrition therapy sessions.
