Understanding Your Insurance Benefits

Clients are responsible for confirming their own insurance coverage prior to scheduling. While we’re happy to guide you, coverage and payment decisions are ultimately determined by your insurance provider. Any services not covered by your plan will be your responsibility.

How to Check Your Coverage for Nutrition Counseling

Call the customer service number on the back of your insurance card.

Ask: “Does my plan cover nutrition counseling with a Registered Dietitian?”

If they ask for CPT (billing) codes, provide:

  • 97802 — Initial nutrition assessment

  • 97803 — Follow-up nutrition visit

If those codes are not covered, ask about:

  • 99401, 99402, 99403, 99404, or S9470

They may also ask for an ICD-10 (diagnosis) code. Common options include:

  • Z71.3 — Dietary counseling and surveillance

  • Z72.4 — Inappropriate diet and eating habits (alternative)

You can also ask if your plan covers nutrition counseling for:

  • Overweight/obesity

  • Prediabetes/diabetes

  • High blood pressure

  • Elevated cholesterol

We use preventive and evidence-based diagnosis codes whenever possible to help maximize insurance coverage.

Important to Know

Some diagnoses may require a deductible, copay, or coinsurance, and plans vary in how many visits are covered each year. Your insurance provider can give you the most accurate information.

If you have questions or want help with what to ask, feel free to reach out — we’re happy to guide you.
