Will my insurance pay for this?
Maybe. Payment is due at the time of service and I will not bill your insurance for you, however, I will provide you with a Superbill which you may choose to submit to your insurance provider for reimbursement.
Do I need a referral to see you?
No, I do not require that you have a formal referral from your doctor. However, if you would like to submit the visit to your insurance, they might require that you have a referral prior to being seen. Call your insurance provider to find out if they require a referral.
What is the difference between a dietitian and a nutritionist?
All dietitians are nutritionists, but not all nutritionists are dietitians. "Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist" (RD/RDN) is a licensed designation given to someone who has completed an accredited academic program, 1200 hours of supervised practice, successfully passed a national exam, and maintains registration and continuing education requirements. Only Registered Dietitian/Nutritionists can provide medical nutrition therapy.
Why "Three Forks"?
This is the City of Pullman's original namesake and a reference to the three creeks that converge here: The Missouri Flat, Paradise, and South Fork of the Palouse. Just like the Palouse river, there is more than one tributary to your health story. Nutrition therapy can offer a lens into the varying factors that play into your health, and Three Forks Nutrition offers a safe space and knowledgeable support to help you make your health vision a reality.
