All other costs are out of pocket and not subject to insurance billing including care coordination, some specialty labs, nutritionist, health coach and exercise physiologist time.

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 or the monthly program maintenance 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.
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. Due to our contracts with insurance companies and Medicare, we are required to bill insurance for all visits with Dr. Judd, your Functional Medicine practitioner.
No. The success behind the program is rooted in the comprehensive team approach.

We have a hybrid model, so we can utilize your insurance, collaborate with your primary care physician, and specialists. If you already use Hoag hospital or other Hoag physicians, you can use the same patient portal, and your records are in one spot.
You are involved in every decision along the journey. The program requires commitment, dedication, and a willingness to change your lifestyle.
Yes, but we work with your specialists as needed.
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.
Dr. Judd sees patients as a specialist only and does not take on primary care patients.
