Insurance covered three ways.

Being a CANNP member opens the door to negotiated insurance access built for natural nutrition practitioners — for your clients, your practice, and your family. And it means an association that actively campaigns to have our profession recognized by more insurers, year after year.

"What does membership actually open up?"
Coverage, three ways

Coverage your clients can claim

A growing list of Canadian insurers recognize NNCP and RNT services, so your clients can seek reimbursement for the sessions you provide.

Coverage for your practice

Access to CANNP-negotiated liability options — professional and general — at member rates, so your practice is protected as you grow.

Coverage for you and your family

Optional health, dental, and income-protection plans built for self-employed practitioners — because you look after clients, we help look after you.

"Do insurers actually recognize what I do?"
Recognition & advocacy
A profession being recognized

More Canadian insurers recognize NNCP practitioners every year.

A growing list of major Canadian insurers now recognize the services of Natural Nutrition Clinical Practitioners and RNTs — meaning the work you do can be a claimable benefit for the clients you serve.

That recognition doesn’t happen on its own. CANNP works continually to make the case to insurers across the country — because when the profession is recognized, every member benefits. Members see the full, current list of recognizing carriers, plus step-by-step guidance, inside the Member Hub.

CANNP has your back — advocating for the recognition that lets your clients claim the care you give.

"How can I help expand coverage for my profession?"
CANNP advocacy — the 1,000 Reasons Why campaign

1,000 REASONS WHY

Add Client's Reason Why. Build the case for coverage.

Every reason a Canadian nutrition practitioner submits on behalf of their client strengthens our case to insurers. Sixty seconds, one reason for each of your clients.

The 1,000 Reasons Why campaign collects client-authored reasons why nutrition counselling should be a covered benefit on more Canadian insurance plans. When CANNP brings these reasons to insurers — in the client’s own authentic words, from coast to coast — we make a case that data alone can’t make.

The form takes a minute at the end of your consultation. You can give your client examples of reasons others have chosen to work with you — access here. There are only two things that matter: that the form is complete, and the reason is authentic.

→ Open to the clients of every nutrition practitioner in Canada — CANNP member or not.

TAKE 60 SECONDS

Why should nutrition counselling be a covered benefit?

Have your client tell us in their words. Name, province, email, and one reason why they chose to work with you.

That’s it.
