Insurance and Payment

Empower Nutrition Counseling takes both self-pay and insurance clients. Please see below for list of in-network health insurance companies. In-network does not always mean that your appointment will be covered by insurance so I recommend calling your insurance company to verify benefits prior to your first appointment. 

• Blue Cross Blue Shield (FEP, PPO, PMC, TRA, MCN, Healthy Montana Kids)
• Allegiance/Cigna
• Pacific Source
• First Choice Health Network
• Mountain Health CO-OP
• Aetna
• Montana Medicaid (Medicaid only covers nutrition services for individuals up until their 21st birthday)
• United Health Care

• Is Empower Nutrition Counseling, LLC and provider Rebecca Maurillo currently an in-network provider for my insurance plan? 
• If not, what are my out-of-network benefits?
• Does my plan cover outpatient nutrition therapy CPT codes 97802 (medical nutrition therapy assessment), and 97803 (medical nutrition therapy follow up)?
• Do I have any nutrition counseling visits covered under the preventative care portion of my plan (ICD-10 Code: Z71.3)?
• Do I have any nutrition counseling visits covered under my specific eating disorder diagnostic code? (This can be obtained from either your therapist, primary care provider, or psychiatrist).
• What is my current coverage for telehealth appointments?
• Do I need a referral from my physician?
• Do I have a deductible for nutrition counseling services? If yes, how much is it and how much has been met?
• Is there a copayment or coinsurance? If yes to either, what is the cost?
• How many sessions are covered per year?

If you do not have insurance or if I am not in network with your insurance company, I offer an out-of-pocket rate of $180 per hour for initial appointments and $150 per hour for follow-up appointments. You will be charged at the time of service.
