Please note that in an effort to provide support to all who attend; this group requires a 15-week commitment. Please arrive no more than 15 minutes late to group as to assure maximum support given to both you and others. We take our support groups very seriously so we can provide the most reliable sense of support possible, which is why if you miss more than one group and/or arrive 15 minutes or more late to one or more group, you will be asked to leave.
Most insurance plans will cover this, as "group medical nutrition therapy," however you are ultimately responsible for any fees your insurance does not cover.
We will submit all claims to your insurance company for you, whether they are in or out of network. We will also do our best to help determine the details of your insurance plan as it relates to this program, and we do require a signed commitment for cohesiveness and planning.
