Weight Loss with Insurance: Rio Grande Valley |Nuestro Nutrition LLC
Let’s Talk Insurance! (Because Adulting Is Hard Enough...)
We get it—figuring out if your insurance covers a dietitian can feel like decoding ancient hieroglyphics. 🧾
At Nuestro Nutrition LLC, we’re here to make that process a whole lot easier. Whether you’re just starting your weight loss journey or need nutrition support after bariatric surgery, we work hard to make our services accessible—and yes, we accept most major insurances.
Let’s break it all down for you in plain English. 🗣️👇
✅ What Insurance Plans Do We Accept?
We proudly accept most major insurance plans across Texas, including:
Blue Cross Blue Shield
UnitedHealthcare
Ambetter
Aetna
Cigna
Humana
Superior HealthPlan
Driscoll
Medicaid (Texas)
Medicare
If you're in the Rio Grande Valley or anywhere in Texas, chances are high your plan is covered.
🌟 Bonus: Most of our patients pay little to nothing out of pocket!
📌 Do I Need a Referral First?
It depends on your plan. Here’s the scoop:
HMO Plans usually DO require a referral from your primary care doctor.
Medicare and Medicaid also typically need a referral—especially if it’s related to medical nutrition therapy (like diabetes or kidney disease).
PPO plans often don’t need referrals, but it's always smart to double-check.
Pro Tip: If you’re not sure, call the number on the back of your insurance card and ask:
“Does my plan cover nutrition counseling or medical nutrition therapy with a Registered Dietitian, and do I need a referral?”
We can also help guide you through the process if you're unsure. 💪
