Why Insurance Covers a Registered Dietitian — Not Just Any Nutritionist

Insurance plans cover medical nutrition therapy (MNT) when provided by a credentialed Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN). The title 'nutritionist' is unregulated in Texas — anyone can use it, and insurance won't pay for unlicensed providers. Rawaa is an RDN and Licensed Dietitian (LD) in Texas, which means her services qualify for insurance reimbursement under most major plans.
