In most cases, no—and that’s on purpose. Insurance is typically designed to cover minimal screening labs, not comprehensive hormone, thyroid, metabolic, inflammatory, and nutrient panels like the Atlas 70™. When patients try to run similar testing through insurance, only the basics are often approved and more advanced markers can be denied—leading to incomplete data and surprise self-pay bills.

Primary care clinicians care deeply, but they often work within strict insurance billing rules, short visit times, and screening-only guidelines. That typically limits testing to basic panels (CBC, CMP, lipids, sometimes TSH), which can be helpful for safety screening but often doesn’t explain fatigue, brain fog, weight resistance, midlife hormone changes, or thyroid issues beyond a single TSH value.

Often, yes. When appropriate, we’ll use insurance for medications such as thyroid medication, testosterone, metformin, Contrave, phentermine, and certain HRT formulations. If something isn’t well-covered (for example, some compounded hormones or peptides), we provide clear cash pricing so you can decide what’s right for you.

Because symptoms are rarely caused by a single number. Energy, hormones, thyroid, metabolism, inflammation, sleep, stress, mood, and digestion are interconnected. A whole-body evaluation helps us diagnose more accurately, personalize treatment, reduce trial-and-error, avoid unnecessary future labs, and often lower long-term costs by getting to the root sooner.

Yes. This is not a one-off lab review—it’s the starting point of your long-term care plan at Atlas. You’ll leave with a personalized 6–12 month roadmap, clear phases and expectations, recommendations when appropriate, and a follow-up strategy so your plan can be adjusted as your body responds.
