As a bariatric dietitian since 2009, there were many years we didn’t bother with insurance because it wasn’t covered. Times have changed and now nutrition visits are often covered and especially for nutrition services for Obesity.

After attending FNCE in 2022, I was excited about bringing this topic to bariatric dietitians and hosted a Q&A chat with two dietitians who run successful private practices and are billing insurance.

Anna Binder-McCasey RD and Ingrid Knight RD are two of the three founders of Nutrition Practice Network. I’ve since joined the network and can advocate it’s a wonderful resource for questions related to the business side of being a dietitian!

Whether you are starting your own practice, starting to bill for your own practice or are responsible for bringing billing into your bariatric program, I believe you’ll find this recording worthwhile. Be sure to reach out to Ingrid or the Nutrition Practice Network for more help!
