In this episode, Libby shares their journey from a cash-pay only dietetic practice to incorporating insurance. Initially, they avoided insurance to maintain control and simplicity, but market changes and competition from large healthcare companies prompted a reevaluation. They discuss the benefits of accepting insurance, such as lowering barriers for clients, ensuring consistent care, and reducing sales pressure. Importantly, the decision to take insurance was strategic, designed around structured systems and workflows to maintain high standards of care. The speaker encourages dietitians to thoughtfully consider their practice models in the face of market shifts and client expectations, and offers resources from Dietitian Boss to support diverse practice models.
