Is Functional Medicine typically covered by insurance? No 👎 Why?
1. Insurance does not address the root cause of disease.
Functional Medicine does. Instead of looking to manage symptoms, we want to know WHY you are having symptoms in the first place. We find and address the triggers and root causes of the disease or symptoms a patient is experiencing.
2. Insurance is not patient-centered.
Functional Medicine is.. We don't focus on numbers, or just getting more people in the door. We make sure each patient receives the attention, quality care, and time they deserve.
3. Insurance does not want providers to take time with patients.
We aren't going to rush you out the door after 15 minutes. We block out appropriate time for each patient so we can truly get to know you and hear your story. We will listen and we will come up with a healthcare plan that is unique to you.
4. Insurance is not focused on prevention.
Functional Medicine focuses on preventing disease or further decline of health from happening. We also integrate lifestyle medicine first to support our clients' health as opposed to managing symptoms.
5. Insurance is not focused on whole body health and wellness.
Functional Medicine acknowledges a respect and awareness of how all body systems impact one another and how lifestyle, diet, activity, genetics, environment, etc, all play a crucial part in our health and wellness.
