My Services
Marienda Nutrition is in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois PPO plans. Coverage varies by plan and isn’t guaranteed. Please confirm your benefits with your insurer before your first visit. Self-pay is also available, with a superbill you can submit to other insurers for possible out-of-network reimbursement.
How Sessions Work
Initial Nutrition Assessment
We review your health history, labs and medications if relevant, current eating patterns, schedule, and goals. You leave with a clear starting plan and next steps.
Follow-Up Sessions
We check in on what’s working, adjust your plan, and build skills over time. Frequency depends on your goals, and we’ll decide together.
All visits are held over secure video chat in Practice Better.
Billing Insurance
Marienda Nutrition is in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois PPO plans. Plans through an employer can differ and coverage varies.
What you’ll pay:
Copay or coinsurance: set by your plan
Deductible: if you haven’t met it, you may pay the contracted rate until you do.
