yes all the fucking time. I even wrote a post before about that. I usually try to be polite (don't like confrontation) but the time I did the post I just kinda snapped you know?

I don't blame you, people suck.

I wouldn't take the insurance rep's word about a nutritionist not being covered for you. If you could get a referral to a registered dietician from your primary care doctor they would likely cover it. There's a chance they may ask for a letter of medical necessity to approve the visit, but if you have any sort of digestive problems or a special diet could help your condition in any way they'd likely end up approving it. Fattie broker probably only has general knowledge about coverage and she's not the one who'd make the decision anyway. You could also call the insurance company to find out the steps you need to take to get coverage approved so you don't take any unnecessary steps. (I'm assuming you are in the US.) I have had to jump through hoops to get some things covered (I have other issues as well as diabetes) but in the end it's been rare not to get something covered. Although you're probably pretty used to dealing with it all so I'm likely telling you something you already know. :)
