Frequently Asked Questions
-
This deep dive health investigation is our chance to get to know you and your health history in detail, from the time you were born until the present moment. We order foundational lab studies, review the data, and interpret these labs with you. The first two appointments will be an Initial Consult with our nurse practitioner (90 minutes) and then the Case Review with your clinician (60 minutes).
You will also meet with both our nutritionist and health coach at least once to get started on key lifestyle changes (these will both be 60-minute Initial Consults).
Your monthly membership plan will begin one month after your 90-minute Initial Consult.
-
Yes. All changes must be requested through your patient portal or by calling us. You can do so by sending a secure message or calling (510) 849-6500. Any change will be reflected on your next month’s bill.
All memberships, both month-to-month and annual plans, are recurring and will automatically renew after the end of each paid membership period unless cancelled or changed.
-
All clinician visits (physician and nurse practitioner) included in your membership are 30 minutes. You can schedule longer visits if you desire. For example, if you are a member of the Recover plan, this includes four clinician visits for 30 minutes each. If you want, you could also use this time for two 60-minute visits, or one 60-minute visit and two 30-minute visits.
If you use all of the visits included in your membership and want to add more before your membership renews, you can purchase additional Clinician Credits. These will not expire at the end of the membership year.
Clinician Credits can be purchased in bundles of four credits, where one credit is equal to fifteen minutes of clinician time. Membership discounts apply for example:
- Sustain: $600 for four credits
- Recover: $510 for four credits (15% discount)
- Rebuild: $480 for four credits (20% discount)
You can use these credits in any combination, for example:
- Four credits for a 60-min visit
- Three credits for a 45-min visit
- Two credits for a 30-min visit
- One credit for a 15-min visit
-

The cost of labs, supplements, devices, and medications are not included, however, some tests and medications may be covered by your health insurance.
We will provide a list of recommended laboratory studies and you can check your insurance plan coverage (PPO insurance frequently provides at least partial coverage for routine blood work at labs like Quest and LabCorp, but coverage is highly variable depending on your plan). Any labs not covered by your insurance will need to be prepaid to CCFM (most functional medicine labs are in this category). If medications are not covered by your insurance we can help you find discounts through companies like www.goodrx.com, or other pharmacies. Note there is a $100 administrative fee for lab kits. Supplements can be ordered through our partners, Wellevate and Fullscript.
Check out our supplement stores on Wellevate and Fullscript.

-
CCFM is a specialty consultation clinic. We recommend that all patients maintain a relationship with a primary care provider. We do not provide after-hours and on-call services and are not able to provide urgent care or emergency services. If you have an emergency, we recommend that you seek care at an urgent care or emergency room.
For female patients, we also recommend that you maintain a relationship with an OB/GYN as we do not provide women’s health care such as pap smears.
-
We believe that a care team approach with clinicians, nutritionists, health coaches, and patient care coordinators is the best way to help you recover your health.
Our Health Coaches will be a key member of your care team. As a member of the Recover and Rebuild memberships, you will meet with your coach for initial hour-long consultation and three 30-minute follow-up visits. After that, you will have easy contact via asynchronous communication by text and portal messages.
If you need additional longer visits, you will have the option to purchase additional support bundles. A bundle of four Lifestyle Credits for support from your nutritionist or health coach is $180 (before plan discounts are applied). The discounts included in your membership plan will be applied when you purchase the bundle.
-
If you use all of the coach or nutritionist appointments included in your membership and want to add more before your membership renews, you can purchase additional Lifestyle Credits in bundles of three. These will not expire at the end of the membership year.
Lifestyle Credits can be purchased in bundles of four credits, where one credit is equal to fifteen minutes of support time. Plan discounts apply for example:- Sustain: $180 for four credits
- Recover: $153 for four credits (15% discount)
- Rebuild: $144 for four credits (20% discount)
You can use these credits in any combination, for example:
- Four credits for a 60-min appt
- Three credits for a 45-min appt
- Two credits for a 30-min appt
- One credit for a 15-min appt

-
We are unable to take international patients at this time. If you live outside of the US, please fill out the form at the bottom of this page and you will be added to the waitlist for when we start taking international patients.
-
Our clinician visits can frequently be reimbursed as an out-of-network provider on many insurance plans. We will provide a superbill (including ICD-10 codes for diagnosis and CPT codes for services performed) that you can submit to your insurance for possible out-of-network reimbursement. We recommend that you call the member services number on the back of your insurance card and ask them what your out-of-network coverage is since reimbursement varies depending on your individual plan.
Some labs, such as LabCorp and Quest, can bill your insurance for the tests ordered, however, CCFM cannot guarantee the amount of coverage you will get. Contact your insurance plan for more details.
At CCFM we are working hard to do a better job of streamlining and optimizing the process and hope to have a system in place soon where we can submit superbills on your behalf. Furthermore, we continue to investigate ways to bill for services like remote patient monitoring (RPM) for use and management of data from devices like the Oura ring, Apple watch, Fitbit, Garmin, etc. Medicare participants cannot use their coverage to pay for care.
If you would like assistance submitting the claim to your insurance company, we recommend using Medical Bill Gurus. They do not charge anything up front, will help ensure your claim is submitted for maximum reimbursement, and their fee is 20% of what your reimbursement is.
-
We can complete prior authorizations for medications we prescribe for a $75 fee. We do recommend you first contact your insurance to find out your copay/deductible amounts will be as sometimes the medications are never covered.
www.goodrx.com is a great resource to see what the self-pay price for the medication might be, as many often end up being less than the $75 + your copay/deductible.
-
Yes, the fees/costs should be reimbursable with your FSA/HSA/HRA. Please check with your plan to confirm.
-
The exact lab testing recommended by our clinicians will depend on your individual circumstances but may include:
- Blood tests for specific conditions, such as high cholesterol, hypothyroidism, vitamin markers, autoimmune disease, gluten and food sensitivity and stealth infections.
- Advanced stool testing to screen for parasites, fungal overgrowth, bacterial infections, intestinal inflammation, dysbiosis and a deficiency of beneficial gut bacteria.
- Breath testing for gastrointestinal bacterial imbalances, such as small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO).
- Urine organic acids testing to screen for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, fungal overgrowth, problems metabolizing fat or carbohydrates, B-vitamin status, methylation issues, detoxification capacity, oxidative stress and neurotransmitter metabolism.
- Saliva or serum hormone testing for adrenal and sex hormone status.
- Genetic testing for methylation and mold susceptibility.
-
Our individualized care means we take into consideration your needs, preferences, and budget. The cost of laboratory tests recommended during the Assessment process can range from $500 – $4,200. Supporting you in this process is our top priority—all testing is customized specifically for you and we also offer flexibility by staggering the tests over time for affordability. This cost does depend on the complexity of your condition, level of diagnostics required, and what your insurance may (or may not) cover. The cost of some testing includes a test administration fee.
-
The fee for supplements that are prescribed as part of your treatment plan during the Assessment process is typically $170 – $2,300. This can be customized based on budgetary constraints. This cost depends on the protocol(s) recommended to treat your condition, and these estimates represent 1-4 months of treatment.
Ongoing supplement fees during follow-up care vary considerably depending on the patient and treatment plan, but average $150–$350/month.
-
We are passionate about using cutting-edge technology and wearable devices to help gain deeper insights into your lifestyle habits, symptoms, and as adjunct tools to your recommended treatment plan. Some of the technology we use with our patients include:

- HeartMath biofeedback
- Home sleep monitoring devices
- Ooler sleep system
- Infrared saunas
- Apps (Cronometer food tracking, Calm, Buddhify, Insight Timer, Breathwerk, The Tapping Solution, Pzizz, f.lux, and more)
We will use your current data from devices you own, and or recommend systems to use if you are interested. These devices and apps are not required, but are an exciting part of our care system. Device costs are extra and your responsibility.
