Hoag Functional Medicine Options

Hoag Functional Medicine offers two program options. Please review the details of each. Our team is happy to answer any questions and help choose the right option for you.

FAQs

Do you take insurance?

Yes. We take PPO and Medicare insurance. Insurance covers the basics, like annual labs, office visits, and annual physical exams. It does not cover the initial set-up fee, the monthly program maintenance fee or the membership fee.
The one-time initiation fee of $1,495 is not covered by insurance. This cost covers program benefits like an assigned clinical care coordinator, personalized health history analysis, nutrition plan, and fitness evaluation from our exercise physiologist.
The monthly program fee of $495 is also not covered by insurance. This cost covers ongoing consultations with our functional medicine nutritionists, exercise physiologists, and other lifestyle management protocols. It also gives you exclusive access to other program benefits like email and phone support, discounts to supplement regimens, and other personalized wellness plans.
There may also be additional lab testing and imaging that your insurance may not cover. Our clinical care coordinator will give you more detailed information on out-of-pocket costs.
What is included in the initiation fee and why can’t that be billed to insurance.

The initiation fee covers the gathering of your health information and review with a member of our Functional Medicine team. It also includes your food plan with a Functional Medicine Nutritionist and assessment time with an Exercise Physiologist.

FAQs

How involved is the patient in making decisions about their treatment plan in the functional medicine program?

You are involved in every decision along the journey. Both the program and membership require commitment, dedication, and a willingness to change your lifestyle.
How long does it take to feel better or to start seeing results?

Everyone is different. It depends on each patient’s level of dysfunction, commitment, and consistency with lifestyle changes.
What conditions are most common among your patients?

We help with a variety of conditions. The most common conditions we see are gastrointestinal, autoimmune, hormone, thyroid, performance optimization, infertility, and biohacking.
Will I need to continue seeing my other specialists?

Yes, but we work with your specialists as needed.
What is one thing most people don't know about Functional Medicine?

Functional medicine is founded in science. Even though many sources describe it as holistic or alternative medicine, it is science-based. The main difference is that we treat systems rather than the traditional medicine approach of treating symptoms.
