Frequently Asked Questions

Standard primary care visits, basic labs, and preventive care are billed through insurance when applicable. Encompass Care currently accepts Aetna, Anthem, BlueCross BlueShield, Medicare (CO), and Medicaid (CO). Cigna and United Healthcare are pending — check back for updates. Functional medicine programs, GLP-1, and HRT programs are self-pay by design. This allows for extended visits, deeper interpretation, and ongoing support without insurance-driven time constraints.

Unlimited sick and acute visits, annual wellness exam, medication management, basic labs at cost, portal messaging, care coordination, priority scheduling, and GLP-1 and HRT management — all included in the $225/month membership. You pay separately for medication at cost. A one-time $150 intake fee applies at your first visit.

Yes. Both are available without a primary care membership. Non-members pay an oversight fee ($125/month for GLP-1 active phase, $150/month for HRT) plus medication at cost. For patients on both services, membership at $225/month typically pays for itself quickly — and includes full primary care on top of it.

The Root Cause Review provides clarity and direction — it identifies patterns and outlines a starting point. RESET and REBUILD provide the structure to act on that: follow-up visits, protocol refinement, accountability, and adjustments over time. Insight creates direction. Ongoing structure creates change. Your Root Cause Review investment is credited toward whichever program you choose.

No. You can start anywhere. Many patients join as primary care members first and move into a functional medicine program when they're ready. Others start directly with RESET or REBUILD. The programs have no required sequencing — you enter wherever makes sense for you.

Basic labs are ordered through Quest Diagnostics and billed to your insurance or at transparent self-pay rates. Advanced functional testing (GI-MAP, DUTCH, Organic Acids) is billed separately through the testing company. You'll always have clear cost expectations before anything is ordered.
