A nutrition appointment can review food patterns, health conditions, medicines, goals and barriers such as shift work or meal access. Meal plans should reflect the individual; a standard workplace diet is not appropriate for everyone.
Agree on counseling or workshop format, eligible participants, scheduling, costs and confidential follow-up. Confirm virtual access for the employee’s location. Avoid promising weight loss, productivity gains or specific health outcomes from attendance alone.
Confirm the service list, employee eligibility, locations, dates, employer authorization, payment arrangements and reporting contacts with the employer-service team. Give employees the correct appointment instructions and a route for questions or missed appointments. Confirm any proposed workplace event or outside collection site before arranging attendance.
Employers should receive only the information needed for the authorized work request. Agree on completion reports, restrictions or other necessary documentation and who may see them. Covered employers must keep medical information confidential and separate from ordinary personnel files. An employee’s personal treatment needs remain a confidential clinical matter.

Employees can use suitable virtual nutrition consultations and follow-ups when the clinician can treat them in their physical location. Confirm the appointment type, professional and cost. Counseling can address eating patterns and personal goals; a group workshop is different from an individual medical nutrition visit.
Ask about the next available nutrition-counseling appointment and any employer-program enrollment steps. Availability varies by professional and appointment type. Confirm whether the visit is virtual or in person, the records to bring and the cost before scheduling.

Coordinate physicals, drug and alcohol testing, and medical review across employee locations. The employer-service team can help define appointments, authorizations, costs and permitted reports for your program.
