Just wondering, will most insurance plans pay to meet with a registered dietician and if so, does it require a referral?
Hi Terri!
Many health insurance plans now cover visits to a RD and some don't require a doctor's referral. However, I would check with your insurance company to make sure!
Medicare started reimbursing medical nutrition therapy for people with diabetes and kidney disease about 7 years ago.
