Currently, Vytal Health does not accept insurance as a form of payment. We believe it is important to work for our patients, not for their insurance companies. That’s why we do not accept insurance and are able to provide the level of care that our patients want. Many of our patients choose to pay for their care using HSA/FSA dollars.
However, we will work to find ways to utilize your insurance when we can for things like labs, ultrasounds, prescriptions, and referrals.
With telemedicine on the rise, some individuals are finding coverage for telemedicine services and we are happy to provide you a superbill (paperwork to submit to your insurance) to file a claim for out-of-network reimbursement.

Currently, Vytal Health is able to treat in a total of 34 states. The states we are NOT able to treat in include: AZ, CO, CT, DC, HI, ID, KS, ME, MD, MA, NH, NM, PA, RI, UT, VT. This doesn’t mean that we can’t work together in the future! Check back often for updates.
Vytal Health physicians are not able to see patients covered by Medicare, Medicaid or other government medical payment programs. Medicare requires us to bill them directly for your care at Vytal Health. Even if you WANT to pay for your services yourself, you are not allowed to do so.
All our consultations are done over video visits (much like FaceTime or Skype). We respect your time. There is no need for you to drive long distances, interact with multiple clinic staff, and sit in a crowded waiting room.
The most important skill that functional medicine physicians have to uncover the underlying root causes of your health problem is their ability to listen, and this can be conveniently completed via video visits.
In order to keep our price for care as low as possible, we forgo those crowded waiting rooms and multiple staff.
And another perk of video visits is that you get living-room access to experts from across the country who have years of experience helping people, just like you, regain their energy, improve their sleep, get rid of their brain fog, lose weight, and feel healthy! If your physician believes you need to be seen in person for an exam, they will help you arrange for this form of care.
