Registered Dietitian Nutritionists are food and nutrition experts who help people meet their nutrition, health, and wellness goals by counseling patients in nutrition and administering medical nutrition therapy as part of a health care team They have met the following criteria to earn the RDN credential: Completed a minimum of a bachelor's degree at a US regionally accredited university or college and course work accredited by the Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. Completed an ACEND®-accredited supervised practice program at a health-care facility, community agency, or a foodservice corporation or combined with undergraduate or graduate studies. Typically, a practice program will run six to 12 months in length. Passed a national examination administered by CDR. For more information regarding the examination, refer to CDR's website. Completed continuing professional educational requirements to maintain registration. Some RDs hold additional certifications in specialized areas of practice. In addition to RDN credentialing, many states have regulatory laws for dietitians and nutrition practitioners. Frequently these state requirements are met through the same education and training required to become an RDN. Source: eatrightpro.org

We are not in-network with any insurance companies and am not able to bill the insurance company for your visit. You are welcome to contact your healthcare insurance provider directly to find out if they offer any out-of-network benefits for seeing a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist. Sometimes they ask for a CPT Code. The one I usually use for Medical Nutrition Therapy is 97802 or 97803. If your plan offers out-of-network benefits, then upon request after your appointment we can provide you with a bill (called a Superbill) with appropriate medical coding in hopes that your insurance may reimburse you for nutrition services. For our convenience, you can download the Welcome Letter on my website under the About section that summarizes this information.

The out-of-pocket-fee will be $150.00 for your first appointment and $75.00 for any follow-up appointments. To make my nutrition services more accessible, I accept HSA and FSA payments and offer discounted bundle-and-save packages when you know that you'll need more than one follow-up session to reach your goals.

This varies depending on the patient and their needs. Nutrition is a journey and it is important to have long-term accountability and support in order to meet and sustain goals. For example, for Eating Disorder Recovery and Intuitive Eating, it is common for patients to have weekly follow-up appointments with their dietitian weekly for the first 8-12 weeks, and then re-evaluate from there. For Feeding Therapy, it is common for patients to have weekly or bi-monthly follow-up appointments for the first 6-8 weeks, and then re-evaluate from there. For most other patients, after the initial consultation, many prefer to schedule at least one follow-up appointment, and many choose to have more. Some people find the Comprehensive Nutrition Assessment is enough for them. You will never be pressured into booking more sessions.
