DIANE KEDDY, MS, RD, FAED - REGISTERED DIETITIAN AND NUTRITIONIST
Providing nutrition and wellness counseling in Newport Beach



Frequently Asked Questions:


Do you accept insurance?

I am on the United Healthcare panel as a preferred provider.  However I do not do any insurance billing, but will provide you with an itemized superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.  Coverage varies depending on the plan, and many plans do not cover nutrition counseling.
Please contact your insurance carrier to find out if you have coverage for nutrition counseling with a Registered Dietitian.


How often will we meet?

I generally see clients with eating disorders every 1-2 weeks. My clients with medical concerns typically come every 3-4 weeks, but frequency of appointments is individualized depending on your needs.


What forms of payment do you accept?

I accept cash, personal checks and money orders for payment.
