Do you accept insurance?
As a Functional Medicine specialist, I am not a Medicare or Medicaid provider, and do not participate in or accept assignment from any third party insurance plans.
About Insurance Billing
When medical practices bill health insurance companies directly, the doctors are required to become participating providers. The doctors must sign a contract that allows the insurance company to determine which services they will and will not provide and how much they can charge for those services. In general, insurance companies do not place a priority on preventive or wellness services. They are heavily invested in the conventional model of health care that too often rely on drugs, procedures, and surgeries. Most doctors and clinics cope with the requirements of being participating providers by keeping their office visits very brief, so that they can see many patients within a given time frame.
Unfortunately, I have found that I cannot be a participating provider in the insurance networks and provide the time intensive and well researched care that I do. As a physician who practices functional medicine, I am firmly committed to prevention, wellness, and natural solutions to health problems. As such, my practice does not lend itself very well to insurance company policies.
