Are private practice dietitians covered by MSP?

According to bcdetitians.ca:

Private practice dietitians are not yet covered by MSP. However, many extended health benefits plans and insurance providers will cover a portion or all of the services provided by a Registered Dietitian (RD). Please confirm with your plan provider your maximum yearly and visit allowance. You will likely have to pay the dietitian first and then submit your receipt for reimbursement with your insurance company. Some dietitians provide direct billing services but not all insurance companies allow for that. Furthermore, registered dieitians are authrorized medical practitioners recognized by the Canada Revenue Agency. If you pay out of pocket for your dietitian services, you can claim these expenses as medical expense for tax credit purposes.
