Insurance Coverage for Nutrition Counseling
Victory in Health provides online nutrition counseling with a Registered Dietitian for eligible patients. I am licensed in Massachusetts and several other states, with Massachusetts as my primary service area. Insurance coverage varies by plan, so we encourage you to contact your insurance company before your first appointment to confirm your nutrition counseling benefits and any potential out-of-pocket costs.
What to Ask Your
Insurance Company
If they ask for a CPT code, provide: 97802 and 97803.
If not covered, ask them to check: 99401, 99402, 99403, 99404, or S9470 (if applicable).
If they ask for a diagnosis code (ICD-10), start with: Z71.3.
If that isn’t covered, try: Z72.4.
If you have a condition such as overweight/obesity, prediabetes, diabetes, hypertension, or high cholesterol, ask if your plan covers visits under those diagnoses as well.
When clinically appropriate, claims may be submitted using preventive counseling codes or diagnosis codes that accurately reflect the services provided. Coverage and patient responsibility are determined by your insurance plan.
Coverage varies widely - from none, to a set number, to unlimited, based on medical need. Your carrier will give you the specifics.
A cost-share is your out-of-pocket responsibility (deductible, co-pay, or co-insurance).
If your plan allows for preventive nutrition counseling, many times there is no cost-share.
We bill your insurance directly first. Once your claim is processed and your carrier provides your Explanation of Benefits (EOB), we will charge the credit card on file for any amount listed as your responsibility.
Some plans require this, so it’s important to confirm before booking.
Some carriers treat these differently, so please clarify in advance.
Some insurance plans classify Registered Dietitians as specialists, which may affect your copay. However, your plan may have different cost-sharing rules for preventive nutrition counseling. We recommend confirming your specific benefits with your insurance company before your first visit.
Summary of questions to ask to verify your nutrition benefits:
-
Do I have coverage for nutrition counseling?
-
Do I need a referral to see a Registered Dietitian?
-
Are my diagnoses covered on my particular plan?
-
How many visits per calendar year do I receive?
-
Do I have a cost-share for these services?
-
Is there an associated cost for me if I choose to have the appointment as a telehealth visit versus an in-person visit?
