Will my nutritional counselling appointment be covered by my insurance?

Private Registered Dietitian services are not covered by Saskatchewan provincial health care at this time, however many people have coverage for RD services through their extended health benefits. Every plan is different so please check your health plan for details of your coverage. You may find Registered Dietitians listed with Chiropractors and Massage Therapists as one of types of Health Practitioners covered by your plan.

There are ordinarily financial limits to this coverage, such as a total dollar amount per year and/or a maximum amount per visit. It is good to understand these limits ahead of time so you don’t have any surprise bills. Nutrition counselling may also be an eligible expense for any flexible health spending accounts you may have though your employer.

At this time, I am unable to direct bill private health insurance companies; however after payment, I can provide a detailed receipt that you can submit for reimbursement.
