tl;dr: Most Americans have insurance that covers working with a Registered Dietitian (RD), but fewer than 1% utilize this benefit. We make it easy for patients to connect with an RD over telehealth and get it covered by their insurance (94% of our patients pay $0 out-of-pocket). For RDs, we eliminate the administrative burdens of accepting insurance. Find a dietitian today on our website!
👋 Hi, everyone! We’re Aidan, Sam, and Stephanie, the co-founders of Nourish. After disappointing experiences with the healthcare system and finding resolutions through diet change, we launched Nourish to make high-quality nutrition care accessible to all Americans.
Poor nutrition is the root cause of chronic diseases affecting over half of Americans. RDs are shown to be highly effective at preventing and managing the most prevalent chronic conditions, yet access to outpatient nutrition care has been limited due to a lack of in-network providers and prohibitively expensive cash-pay options. Access is particularly limited amongst lower-income patient populations that are disproportionately affected by poor nutrition.
Nourish is a telenutrition platform that connects people to RDs covered by insurance. Our RDs provide personalized support for patients spanning different life stages and conditions, including adolescent eating disorders, perinatal care, diabetes and prediabetes, heart health, gut health, autoimmune diseases, cancer, and nearly 40 more. Using our app, patients can log meals, message with their RD, track health progress, and access personalized resources.
Through partnerships with most major health insurance companies, we offer services to 94% of patients for $0 out-of-pocket. We accept hundreds of insurance plans in all 50 states and are in-network with major insurance providers, including Aetna, Cigna, United, Blue Cross Blue Shield, and Medicare.
