An integrative model of medicine is one that draws upon multiple medical knowledge bases: from allopathic medical practice and from complementary and alternative medical (CAM) practices. The integrative model expands a doctor’s or therapist’s so-called toolbox of options from which to choose for a patient.

Functional medicine is a systems-based approach to treating illness that focuses on identifying the root cause of a patient’s presenting problem. Our doctors apply this model to treat our patients’ mental health by looking at not only psychological factors that may be impactful, but also by taking a clinical history and physical examination, measuring inflammation, examining food sensitivities, and considering genetic factors. 

There is common ground between integrative medicine and functional medicine. Our philosophy is that both should be practiced with the following approaches to care:

• Collaborative. A patient’s care team starts with the practitioner and the patient, but may also expand to include family members, other medical practitioners, and therapists. The care team can be as small or big as the patient wants.
• Holistic. We look at body, mind, spirit and community factors that may influence the manifestation of illness.
• Evidence-based: Our providers make their recommendations to patients by drawing upon their clinical experience, incorporating patient values, and consulting the best available research information.
• Individualized. While there are accepted health guidelines and recommendations to follow, there is no a “one size fits all” approach to healthcare. We aim to discover what will work best for a patient at a personalized level.

The No Surprises Act was passed by the U.S. Congress and went into effect on January 1, 2022. Under this law:  You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your health care will cost.  Under the law, health care organizations need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services.  This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees. Make sure your health care organization gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care organization, and any other organization you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.

If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.    For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 1-800-985-3059.
