Insurance Information
Access to care matters to us
This page will guide you through checking your nutrition counseling benefits to ensure that our time together is covered by your insurance plan. Below you’ll find information about insurance coverage for both in-network and out-of-network benefits.
If we do not accept your insurance, we can provide you with a superbill to submit to your insurance company if you have out-of-network benefits. Please note that a superbill does not guarantee reimbursement. Sessions that are not covered by insurance will be the responsibility of the client.
Verify Your Insurance Coverage
Yeo Nutrition & Wellness PLLC accepts Aetna and Cigna insurance plans. We do our best to check your benefits before we start working with you, but sometimes insurance representatives give us incorrect information.
We encourage you to also verify your coverage so that you also understand what will be covered by your insurance.
To verify that your insurance plan covers nutrition counseling, call the number on the back of your insurance card and ask the following questions listed below. Record the representative’s name, answers to the questions below and a reference # when checking your benefits. This information will be necessary if you ever need to dispute a rejected claim.
The representative may ask for national provider identifier (NPI):
Yeo Nutrition & Wellness PLLC: 1346181005
Xin Rong Yeo: 1669234688

Out-of-network Benefits
We do not accept all insurance plans. We are considered out of network with all other healthcare plans. These plans may have out of network benefits in which you pay the provider directly and then submit claims to your insurance company. Your insurance company then reimburses you for a percentage of your payment (approx. 60%-80%) after deductible/coinsurance/copay. This varies depending on the insurance company and the specific plan you have. The superbill does not guarantee reimbursement. Sessions that are not covered will be the responsibility of the client.
We recommend calling your insurance company to ask about your coverage, so you know if you will receive any reimbursement for our services.
