What questions should I ask when calling my insurance company?
If the insurance company asks for a CPT code please provide them with the codes 97802 & 97803. If they say you do not have coverage using those codes, NEXT ask them to check your coverage for the CPT codes: 99401, 99402, 99403 and 99404.
If the representative asks for a diagnosis code – please tell them the visit is coded with the ICD 10 code: Z71.3. Your visit is coded as preventative to maximize the number of nutrition visits you receive from your insurance carrier.
For most insurance companies I am considered a specialist. Therefore, your specialist co-pay is applicable and is payable at the time of service. This information is often apparent on the front of your actual insurance card.
