Will insurance cover care at the Center for Nutrition, including physician visits, dietitian visits, lab work, or other service costs?

Insurance plans are highly variable in what they will cover, what they will not cover, and under what circumstances they will cover how much. Since historically insurance companies have chosen not to cover nutritional counseling and weight loss services, we do not directly file claims to insurance companies. We will, however, provide you with all the appropriate documentation for you to submit your claims and seek reimbursement. We believe that your health is an excellent investment and we would rather work directly with you and for you than for your insurance company that might choose to tell you how often you could be seen and how long your treatment plan should last. We know from experience that weight loss is very difficult, time consuming and that success requires care, personal support, problem solving, and a long term treatment plan to maintain lasting success. Dr. Tague and his staff have pursued advanced training, education, and experience in the field of medical weight loss and nutrition. Insurance companies may or may not acknowledge your needs for medically supervised weight loss and the services that we offer. Many patients have received reimbursements, to varying degrees, for visits and laboratory services.
