Most health insurance plans cover nutrition visits with us, often at NO COST to you. Telehealth (aka virtual) sessions are preferred. At this time, telehealth is covered by the majority of plans we accept.
We are in-network with Anthem Blue Cross, BCBS, Blue Shield of CA, HealthNet, Medicare, United Healthcare, Brand New Day.
Coverage varies greatly between plans. Please continue reading for help determining what your plan covers.
If we are out of network with your insurance, sessions may still be covered. Upon request, we can provide you with a superbill to submit yourself for possible reimbursement. Payment is due from you at the time of service in this instance.
Note: Eligibility/benefits information is not a guarantee that your insurance will cover sessions.
Regardless of what type of insurance you have, a referral from your healthcare provider is REQUIRED for services. Click the button below to get the referral form you need.

Yes! We offer virtual appointments (also called telehealth) where me meet online for a video call. It’s similar to Skype but we use a more secure platform for healthcare. Most insurance companies we accept cover these type of visits for clients in California State. See our Rates / Insurance page for more details on coverage.
If you live outside of California State, please contact us prior to scheduling your appointment to determine if we can work with you. Some states allow it, and some do not.
Telehealth sessions might not be covered across state lines so, as always, it’s important for you to ask your insurance company.
