Licensing Reimbursement

We believe you should focus on delivering exceptional care, not navigating licensing expenses. Multi-state licensure is essential to our mission of expanding access to nutrition care, but the financial burden shouldn't fall on you.

Nourish fully reimburses initial licensure and renewals for specific states. We take a proactive approach—identifying which states you need based on patient demand and our growth strategy—so you're never guessing which licenses to pursue or covering costs out of pocket.

All red state reimbursements are automatically approved—no request needed. Green state reimbursements are approved only if Nourish requested the license. Review the full list of green and red states here.

Eligible States for Reimbursement:

Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, and Washington DC

You can reimburse all eligible licensing expenses through Ramp for eligible state license.

Eligible expenses include:

• Application fees

• Fingerprinting costs

• Mailing costs

• License verification fees

ℹ️ Liability insurance: All Nourish dietitians are covered under Nourish's group liability policy. You are not required to obtain additional liability insurance. Nourish does not reimburse for individual liability insurance. Learn more.

Important: Red state licensing bonuses and high-demand state bonuses are paid via payroll, not Ramp. Do not request these bonuses in Ramp.
