Im a naturopath considering going into Wellness Consulting. Do insurance companies reimburse for naturopathic consulting?
A. In most states, insurance does not cover naturopathic consultations. Naturopaths who partner up with chiropractors or medical doctors may be able to receive some compensation, depending on the situation. Still, it is important to note that many people are willing to pay for naturopathic consultation, even without insurance benefits. I suggest you review the Coalition for Natural Health’s website for updates on legislative issues that might affect you as well as info on the practice of traditional naturopathy. http://www.naturalhealth.org/statebystate/minnesota.html http://www.naturalhealth.org/tradnaturo/history.html Good luck with your important work.
