Insurance Reimbursement
Anne Till Nutrition Group dietitians/nutritionists are currently contracted with BCBS, BCBSNC, BCBSNC-State Plan, United Health Care, Aetna, Cigna, and Medcost. We will file claims on your behalf only for these health insurance companies. You will remain responsible for all co-pays, coinsurances, and deductibles as applicable and as prescribed by your specific plan. We will verify your benefits with your health insurance (if you are a member of the companies that we are in-network with). Verification of benefits is never a guarantee of payment by your insurance company. You will remain responsible for all fees associated with services rendered by the office if your insurance company fails to cover these services - even after we have done our best to obtain the most accurate and up-to-date information.
If you are with other insurance plans it is necessary for you to verify what benefits are available to you before receiving services from Anne Till Nutrition Group. For all health insurance companies that we are not in-network with, we are a fee-for-service practice, where payment is due in full at the time of your session. You may however still receive reimbursement from your insurance company for services rendered by us as an out-of-network provider, so as a courtesy, we will gladly provide you with a detailed statement at your request.

Other Fees
Nutrition Care Plan Formulation Fee
There is a one-time fee of $75 for the formulation and creation of your nutrition care plan that is not covered by your insurance. This fee covers the time outside of the face-to-face time your dietitian spends creating your nutrition care plan. This plan is required by Anne Till Nutrition Group as we have found this to be highly effective in helping patients. Payment for your nutrition care plan is due at the time of your initial consultation unless you are paying out of pocket. The fee for the nutrition care plan for patients paying out of pocket has been distributed amongst the initial and the second consultation fees.
Payment is due at the time of your session. We accept checks, payable to Anne Till Consulting LLC and major credit cards including MasterCard, Visa, and Discover. Receipts for our services are made upon request. Please note that fees are usually increased annually to compensate for our overhead expenses.
