Many people have coverage for Registered Dietitian services through their extended health benefits, but every plan is different. So please check with your plan’s administrators for the details of your coverage.

You may find Registered Dietitians listed with Chiropractors and Massage Therapists as one of types of HEALTH PRACTITIONERS or Providers covered by your plan. There are often limits to this coverage, such as a total amount per year and/or a maximum amount per visit. To avoid surprizes, we recommend understanding those limits ahead of time.

Nutrition Counselling with us may also be an eligible expense for any FLEXIBLE health or wellness spending accounts you may have though your workplace. Others have used workplace-sponsored personal development funds, as well.

If you have any kind of coverage, let us know. While we won’t direct bill your plan, we will do our best to ensure you get all the services you’re covered for, and provide detailed reciepts in support of your claims.

And if your plan doesn’t reimburse you for 100% of the cost of your nutrition counselling, Canada Revenue Agency recognizes any out-of-pocket costs as eligible medical expenses for income tax deduction purposes. So save your receipts!

As of 2020, we have most of our appointments using a video chat platform. It’s simple and secure, with no downloads needed. We are also available by phone. 

Intake forms and payment are typically handled ahead of your first visit, all online or by phone. So you really don’t need to bring anything other than a willingness to work together. Some clients will share their food & activity journals, which is always welcome. You can take notes, or ask for our notes. 

For online or phone visits: Certainly. If you want to invite a support person, like your spouse, parent, or adult child, they are always welcome to listen in and contribute to the discussion – at your invitation.
