I am happy to provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance for potential reimbursement if I am not in-network with your plan.
​
How to Check Insurance Coverage:
1. Call your insurance provider on the back of your card.
​
2. Ask if your plan covers nutritional counseling, preventative or diagnostic services, using CPT codes 97802/97083 and ICD10 codes Z71.3, Z68.1-Z68.45 or E66.0. If applicable, ask if eating disorder codes (F50.9) are covered.
​
3. Ask if a referral or prior authorization is needed.
​
4. Ask if there is a limit to the number of services covered under the specific plan.
​
5. If needed, provide them with this information:
