THERE IS EXCELLENT  NUTRITION COVERAGE WITH MOST INSURANCE PLANS!

*There is usually full coverage with zero copay with all BCBS of MT plans regardless of the deductible and out of pocket!

*With other insurances, coverage will depend on the plan, but coverage is usually good and often with zero copay regardless of the deductible and out pocket.

* I am a preferred provider with BCBS, BCBS Healthy Montana Kids, Allegiance, Cigna, Aetna, EBMS, Pacific Source, United health Care, First Health Choice, Montana Health Co-Op, Medicare Part B, BCBS Medicare Advantage, Medicaid Healthy Montana Kids Plus.

* Medicare Part B covers Medical Nutrition Therapy for diabetes and kidney disease.

* Medicaid only pays for nutrition services through the age of 18 under Medicaid Healthy Montana Kid Plus. There is no nutrition coverage past the age of 18.

* Pacific Source limits nutrition coverage to anorexia, bulimia, diabetes, and inborn errors of metabolism. First, you pay in full the prepay amount without insurance, but I will bill the allowable insurance amount to Pacific Source. After you have met your deductible, than you pay the out of pocket which is anywhere from 20% to 30%, and after you have paid your out of pocket, nutrition counseling is covered in full.

* BCBS Healthy Montana Kids limit nutrition coverage to diabetes and obesity.

* Before our initial visit, I call your insurance to inquire about your coverage.

* I am able and willing to set up a contract with any other health insurance that covers nutritional services and become a preferred provider.

* TRICARE doesn't cover services provided by a nutritionist or dietitian excepts when provided during an inpatient hospital stay.
