Summary
Culina Health has partnered with Adventist HealthCare to enhance access to insurance-covered nutrition care in the Washington, D.C. metro area. This integration allows patients within the Adventist HealthCare Physician Alliance, which comprises over 2,400 providers, to receive virtual, personalized nutrition counseling from Culina Health’s registered dietitians for various health issues. The partnership streamlines the referral process through electronic health records, enabling patients to be connected to a dietitian within a week. This initiative aims to address the low engagement with dietitians among Americans by improving accessibility and affordability of nutrition care.
