Please note that for private paying patients, as well as for co-payments, we accept cash, checks (payable to Midtown Nutrition Care), or credit cards.

If your insurance requires a referral, because we are a group practice, you may use our group provider number (except for Oxford), or the individual provider number of any one of our nutritionists, and then all of our nutritionists who are providers for your insurance company will be able to see you. If you do not yet have a referral you can use the following numbers: For Aetna our group number is 5333577. For Oxford do not use our group number; instead use Robert Howard's provider number, P442628, which may be used to see any of our nutritionists. For HIP, use Robert Howard's provider number, 19582P. For Blue Cross, use Robert Howard's provider number, S00201.
