We recognize the drain and overwhelm that comes along with complex health challenges and persistent symptoms. We know this can sometimes feel like a full-time job and it’s nice to have someone be in the driver seat for a change. We want to relieve some of that pressure and burden by providing comprehensive medical care, support and guidance needed to be successful all by creating a one stop shop patient experience.
With our experience taking care of thousands of patients with complex health conditions, we have learned that it is important to include nutrition and health coaching in addition to clinician services.
We have designed our membership offerings with the goal of helping our patients recover their health fully and succeed at the hard work needed to make the health behavior change we ask people to do. Having a highly competent and compassionate team by your side can make all the difference between healing and suffering.
-
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 in the onboarding deep dive will be an Initial Consult and then a Case Review with your assigned clinician.
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 Initial Consult.
-
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 and nutritionists will be a key member of your care team and are included in the onboarding process and membership tiers.
-
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 and Fullscript.
Check out our supplement store on Fullscript.

The exact lab testing recommended by our clinicians will depend on your individual circumstances but may include and not limited too::
- 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.
-
Our individualized care means we take into consideration your needs, preferences, and budget. The cost of laboratory tests recommended during the Onboarding 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 Onboarding 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.
-
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.
Medicare participants cannot use their coverage to pay for care.
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 continually strive to do a better job of streamlining and optimizing the process. We will 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.
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.
-
Our combination of routine exam and related health data storage and communication services are designed to be eligible medical expenses and thus HSA/HRA/FSA eligible, but check with your tax expert or HRA/FSA plan administrator to confirm this.
-
Yes. There is a minimum charge of $50, and there may be an additional charge prorated for any staff time spent that is greater than 15 minutes.

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 have a variety of clinicians on staff as part of your care team. Some patients are best suited for ongoing treatment with a nurse practitioner (NP) or physician assistant (PA), while others are better suited with an MD as their lead clinician. After your first appointment, our team will discuss your case and will determine which clinician is the best fit. If it is determined one of our MDs is the best fit for your case, you may still have follow-up appointments with our NP or PA in between appointments with your MD, based on the availability of their schedule.

- 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.

No, we are not currently taking international patients. We apologize, but it is very difficult to order testing, supplements, and medication for international patients, so we are not able to treat patients outside of the US at this time.
If you have questions we didn't cover, we'd be happy to answer them. Please fill out the form and we'll get back to you shortly.
Tracey is amazing. She is so knowledgeable and thorough and invested in your care. Living with ongoing health issues is a challenge but I always leave our calls with a sense of renewed hope and enthusiasm. Feeling heard and knowing someone is on my side and working with me to find answers and help me live my best life–I can’t tell you how much that means.
