Direct Billing FAQs
“Do I need to pay anything if I qualify for direct billing?”
The amount you’ll have to pay depends on your insurance plan. Not all insurance plans cover the full amount for your appointment. If your insurance plan does not provide 100% coverage for dietitian services, you will be responsible for paying the remainder.
The amount you’ll pay is dictated by your insurance coverage, so please check with your insurance provider. Additionally, you may need to pay a deductible.
“Do you provide receipts for direct billing?”
We provide receipts for the percentage of your fees that are not covered by insurance.
“Can you pair two different insurance plans?”
We will gladly pair two different insurance plans if they are from the same insurance provider.
If this applies to you, you’re able to pair the benefits for both plans. Please ensure that you’ve provided us with all insurance information at the time of the appointment.
We will only direct bill to one insurance company. It is the client’s responsibility to submit the provided receipt for the amount paid out of pocket to any other insurance providers.
To see if you qualify for direct billing with Hakim Family Nutrition, please call us at 204-504-5300 or email Info@HakimFamilyNutrition.ca.
