"I am now credentialed with multiple insurance companies, which has already brought in more clients."

I loved how the course simplified the insurance credentialing and billing process. I loved having the step-by-step process of applying to insurance companies and appropriately filing a claim broken down. 

After completing the course, I'm excited to now be credentialed with multiple insurance companies, which has already brought in more clients!

I would highly recommend this course to any other dietitians who are considering offering insurance. I would not have known where to start without their expertise and support."

What our students are saying

“Exactly what I needed to understand billing from the RD side.”

Excellent course. I was a finance director for a multi-million-dollar, multi-facility optometric business focused on resolving billing issues. I wanted to learn more about billing from the dietitian side, and this course was spot on for getting people up to speed and very concise!

Even as an experienced coder and biller for over 10 years, I found this course to be incredibly valuable.

"I have been successfully billing insurance for a couple of months!" 

I highly recommend the Insurance Credentialing and Billing course to any RD who is new to insurance and feeling overwhelmed by all the unknowns.

The course is well organized, nicely paced, and more affordable for those first starting out in private practice.

I have been successfully billing insurance for a couple of months, thanks to Jasmine and Alissa's resources!

 

Emma L, RD

"I recommend this course, 10/10! "

This course was such an invaluable resource for me as a young professional. It was broken down into manageable, bite-sized pieces that weren't causing additional overwhelm. The information was on point, and clearly presented.

Additionally, I appreciated the subtitles and the transcript of each video, as English isn't my first language. Overall, I recommend this course, 10/10!
