INSURANCE

We here at FNS believe that good nutrition
is the foundation for good health.

Through nutrition coaching we believe that nutrition can change the outcomes of disease and improve quality of life, it can set children
up for their future with better body image, improved education outcomes and healthy aging. It can improve family health and connections
around a table. It is a service that should be affordable and accessible to everyone.

This is why we accept insurance, cash pay or can provide you with a Superbill if your insurance company is out of network with us.

Nutrition support may be covered through your TriWest insurance plan. Check your eligibility and enjoy expert care with peace of mind.

TriCare Prime: You must have a Tricare-approved, formal referral to bill Prime. We are an in network provider, so getting a referral from your pcp prior to our first session will help to ensure your services are covered.

TriCare Select: Tricare accepts medical codes only. This means we do need a referral form faxed over from your primary care provider. We do not need an official referral approved by Tricare, just the form with your ICD-10 codes annotated from your provider. If we do not have this, we cannot bill Tricare. We must have this form prior to your first visit.

  • Aetna does require medical codes so we do need a form with your ICD-10 diagnosis codes annotated. Your provider is welcome to fax over notes with codes documented, or you can use the form we have available.
  • There is sometimes deductible and cost share / co-pay, but not always. You must check with your plan. You can use this script (will provide you with this link) to check with your insurance.
  • Most of these plans are covering telehealth, but please confirm.

There are many different Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield plans and individual BCBS across the US. It is strongly suggested that you use our insurance script to check benefits. We do find USUALLY coverage is very good with low or no cost shares, but there have been plans that do not cover at all.

  • Most of the UHC plans have coverage for both preventive AND medical codes.
  • Most UMR plans require diagnosis codes and we will request you have a referral from your primary care provider.
  • We do need a form with your ICD-10 diagnosis codes annotated. Your provider is welcome to fax over notes with codes documented, or you can use the form we have available.
  • Usually, UHC will cover for an overweight or obesity code: BMI over 25 (overweight) or a BMI over 30 (obese).
    These BMI-based codes combined with  a cardiovascular risk factor diagnosis (high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease, impaired glucose, diabetes, etc.) usually have 100% coverage.
  • There is sometimes deductible and cost share / co-pay, but not always. You must check with your plan. You can use this script  to check with your insurance.
