Using Insurance for Your Appointment
Using Insurance for Your Appointment
Most of my clients pay nothing out of pocket to work with me because I am a registered dietitian nutritionist, and in-network with most major health insurance companies!
I am an in-network provider with:
Blue Cross Blue Shield/Anthem
Harvard Pilgrim
Cigna
United Health Care
Aetna
Health Plans
Tufts
Wellsense
Before you schedule your appointment, make sure you fully understand your health insurance benefits with your insurance company. It is your responsibility to know what your nutrition counseling policy covers so you don't get any surprise bills.
Please call the number on the back of your insurance card to find out if your nutrition visit will be covered by your insurance, PRIOR to scheduling your first appointment.
Please ask your doctor's office to fax referrals/MD orders to: (603) 704-3347.

Frequently Asked Questions
What can I expect working with you?
What can I expect working with you?
Expect down-to-earth, conversational appointments, in which I get to know you and your story. That way we can work together to setup healthy nutrition and lifestyle strategies that will work in your life.
Do I need a referral?
Do I need a referral?
Yes.
Even if your insurance does not require it, I do require a referral or order form from your primary care provider faxed to my office ((603) 704-3347) at least 24 hours before your first visit. This helps make your insurance billing easier and makes sure I have the important medical information I need to best support your health.
What should I expect from a first appointment?
What should I expect from a first appointment?
Initial appointments (60-90 minutes): We'll discuss your medical and nutrition history in detail as well as your goals. Most of this time includes hearing from you, to get a clear understanding of where you're coming from. By the end of the first appointment, you will leave with at least a couple first steps to start working on to get closer to your goals.
What should I expect from a follow up appointment?
What should I expect from a follow up appointment?
Follow up appointments (45-60 minutes): We'll review how your plans and goals have been going since your last appointment - what's working well and what feels harder. Together, we'll fine-tune your plan so it fits your life, feels realistic and can last. We'll build on your progress, adding in nutrition tips that make sense for you, and help you feel more confident and supported as you keep moving forward toward your goals.
