Bill overview
The Nutrition CARE Act of 2023 aims to expand Medicare coverage for medical nutrition therapy services for individuals with eating disorders. This bill would require these services, which are provided by registered dietitians or nutrition professionals under a physician or psychologist’s referral, to be covered by Medicare. It addresses the significant health and economic burden of eating disorders, particularly among older adults, and establishes specific guidelines for the provision of these services, including a minimum number of hours of therapy.
