Frequently Ask Questions
Can I use insurance for the labs?
Insurance coverage for Functional Medicine testing is unreliable. Many essential tests (Vitamin D, homocysteine, iron studies, B12) are often denied coverage, leading to surprise bills of $180–$290 per test—sometimes totaling $1500–$2000 after insurance adjustments. Paying out of pocket is typically far less expensive and allows you to know your upfront cost.
Are these all the labs I need?
This intake panel is a solid starting point for the most common complaints that can be addressed with Functional Medicine but is by no means comprehensive. Each test is included because it directly informs an initial treatment plan. Additional labs I recommend depend on the history, exam and symptoms.
