Please note that some visits may require at least one 30 minute follow-up visit for test result discussion, usually via telehealth. We are happy to discuss the price of a package of visits suited to your condition. We are also planning to offer integrative care programs in these areas in the near future consisting of medical as well as nutritional therapy, and health coach education and support.
Cancellation Policy
To ensure efficient use of our time and resources, please provide at least twenty-four (24) hours' notice for cancellations or reschedules. Otherwise, a fee equal to fifty (50) percent of the cost of the scheduled visit will be applied and charged immediately. Subsequent missed appointments may be charged the full cost of the missed visit, based on our current fee schedule, and, in certain cases, may result in discharge from the practice.
Grace Period Disclaimer
At TārāMD, we strive to provide all our patients with exceptional care and attention. To ensure the smooth functioning of our appointments and to respect the time of both our patients and medical professionals, we kindly request that you arrive early and adequately prepared for your scheduled appointment.
Importance of Punctuality
Arriving on time for your appointment, whether in-person or via telehealth, is crucial for maintaining the efficiency of our medical services. It allows us to provide you with the full attention and care you deserve, as well as minimizes any inconvenience caused to other patients who may have appointments scheduled after yours.
Please be advised that if you arrive more than 10 minutes late for your appointment, it may be necessary to cancel or reschedule your visit. In such cases, our standard cancellation fee (refer to cancellation policy) will be applicable. We understand that unforeseen circumstances may arise, and we encourage you to contact us as soon as possible if you anticipate being delayed.
Commitment to Quality Care
Our commitment to providing high-quality healthcare remains paramount, and we appreciate your cooperation in adhering to our appointment policies. Should you have any questions or require further clarification regarding our grace period and cancellation policy, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Testing Costs
We do not charge for blood draws or urine collection during your initial or any follow-up appointments. We strive to send the tests to the in-network lab based on insurance coverage, usually Quest or Labcorp. It is the patient’s responsibility to find out which lab is the preferred lab provider on their plan.
The cost of your appointment includes the service fee for any lab work performed during the visit. For follow-up lab work, you have the option to have it completed at a lab of your choice. If you prefer to have lab work done at TārāMD outside of a scheduled follow-up visit, a $50 service fee will apply.
Some advanced testing options, such as functional hormonal testing (e.g., DUTCH or ZRT tests) or certain genetic tests, are not covered by insurance. These tests are recommended only if they are specifically indicated for you and are not part of routine testing. We will discuss any associated costs with you in advance. Participation in these tests is entirely optional, and we are committed to working with standard testing options to the best of our ability if you prefer not to proceed with advanced testing.
If you choose any of these tests, a follow-up appointment—either in-person or virtual—will be required to review and discuss the results. Depending on the complexity of the tests and the findings, more than one follow-up appointment may be necessary.
Please note that if these tests are completed prior to your first visit, they will not be discussed during your initial appointment. Our providers require significant time to thoroughly review the results and prepare for an in-depth discussion with you.
Supplement Costs
As a convenience to our patients, we have partnered with Fullscript, a virtual supplement dispensary of medical-grade supplements manufactured by vetted companies which meet higher standards for safety and quality. We are able to provide our patient community a discount of 15% from what you would pay for the same products as a retail customer. Supplements are not covered by insurance, but FSA/HSA funds may be used when purchasing through Fullscript. You are under no obligation to purchase these products from Fullscript and may buy them elsewhere, being certain that this decision will in no way affect the quality of care you receive from us. We do not have commercial or financial agreements with any supplement manufacturers.
