To check your eligibility for nutrition counseling, Call the member services number on the back of your insurance card and ask:

Does my plan cover outpatient nutrition counseling? (codes: 97802 and 97803)

How many sessions are allowed ?

Does my plan only cover visits that are “medically necessary”? or does it also cover preventive services? (code: Z71.3)

Does my plan cover telehealth for nutrition counseling?

Do I have a deductible to meet first?

How much of the deductible have I met?

Do I have a copay for outpatient nutrition counseling?

Do I need a physician referral?

Record the representative’s name and a reference # when checking your benefits. This information will be necessary if you ever need to dispute a rejected claim.
