Ever wondered if bringing on dietitians in mental health could transform your group practice—but felt stuck on where to start?
In this episode, I’m sitting down with Jamie Magdic, registered dietitian and group practice owner, to dive deep into the logistics of dietitians in mental health, opportunities, and challenges of creating a true multidisciplinary practice.
Jamie shares her experience running a thriving, insurance-based dietitian group and offers key insights into how multidisciplinary therapy can better serve your clients—and how to navigate the practical hurdles like billing, legalities, and team support. If you’ve been thinking about expanding your practice beyond therapy services, this episode is packed with must-know information, especially when it comes to dietitian insurance coverage and setting up your systems for success.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- What makes bringing on dietitians in mental health so powerful—and why it’s a growing trend for group practice owners.
- The biggest surprises (and headaches) when it comes to dietitian insurance coverage and why medical billing looks very different from therapy billing.
- How to structure a strong multidisciplinary practice team that ensures dietitians feel supported, legally protected, and able to thrive.
- The often-overlooked benefits of multidisciplinary team collaboration—and how it elevates client care and boosts outcomes.
- What systems and experts you need in place to create a sustainable multidisciplinary therapy environment (hint: supervision, billing, and legal guidance are critical!).
Tune in to the full episode now to learn exactly how to navigate bringing dietitians in mental health into your practice and unlock the true benefits of multidisciplinary team care!
