Nutrition Counseling 

One-on-one counseling is provided for adults to address diet in relationship to health issues. Common reasons for nutrition counseling include the following:

  • healthy eating and health maintenance
  • weight concerns
  • diabetes, pre-diabetes, and gestational diabetes
  • high blood pressure
  • high cholesterol levels
  • chronic kidney disease
  • celiac disease
  • stomach or intestinal problems

The initial session consists of diet assessment, diet counseling, meal planning and goal setting. One or two follow-up sessions can help patients evaluate dietary changes and problem-solve concerns and barriers to success. There is never an obligation to have follow-up appointments.

Children may come to the office for many of the same health related reasons as adults. Other reasons that children might be seen include:

  • weight concerns
  • poor weight gain
  • picky eating
  • special needs
  • food allergies

The approach with children is different than with adults. Care is given to make the child comfortable and a part of the discussion. A non-dieting approach is used to guide children and families to eat in such a way as to reach specific goals. Children rely on the adults in their lives to provide safe and healthy food choices as well as opportunities to play and be physically active. For this reason, an adult caregiver is usually present during the session.

Health Insurance and Payments

Many insurance policies cover nutrition counseling but coverage varies. We will help you verify coverage and let you know before your appointment if there will be an out-of- pocket cost. We accept most major insurance companies such as Medicare, Blue Cross and Blue Shield, Aetna, United Healthcare, Cigna, Health Choice, and SoonerCare. We are not in network with Tricare. The best way to know your coverage is by calling your insurance and asking about procedure code 97802/03. They can tell you whether our services are covered and how much your insurance will pay.

 

Telehealth

Telemedicine Technology is a new trend that is becoming a game-changer for preventative medicine and healthcare. Telemedicine allows healthcare providers to consult with clients via electronic video using your smartphone or computer that is HIPPA compliant in the comfort of your home or office. Telemedicine makes it easier to provide consistent and quality care to patients by expanding availability and reach. Our dietitians offer nutrition consultations through telemedicine and would love to provide you with consistent, convenient and quality care. This service is not available for insurance reimbursement at this time. Currently insurance requires the client to be seen by electronic video only at an approve rural health clinic, not from your location of choice
