Telehealth FAQs

What is functional medicine?

Functional medicine focuses on treating root causes of health issues rather than just symptoms.

How can telehealth help?

Telehealth allows convenient access to consultations from home, making it easier for parents and children.

What does Functional Autism specialize in?

How can I schedule a telehealth consultation?

If you would like telehealth functional medicine services for your child and you live in the following states: AZ, CO, CT, FL, ID, NM, OR, UT, VT, and WA please request a visit here, you will receive a confirmation email with INTAKE paperwork and consents to fill out before your appointment, please keep an eye out!

Please Note: Patients (children) need to be present during virtual appointment and must be physically located in the one provider's licensed states at time of visit.

Schedule Appointment

Do you take insurance?

Functional Autism is a "cash pay" telehealth practice and does not contract or coordinate billing/approvals with any insurance companies. However, depending on your insurance plan you may be able to use your insurance for certain medications, labs, or imaging for "out of network" providers.

Cash pay options with transparent pricing are always available and often times much more affordable than co-pays/coinsurance costs.

FSA/HSA IS ACCEPTED FOR PAYMENT

Functional Autism offers telehealth consultations (available to patients located in AZ, CO, CT, FL, ID, NM, OR, UT, VT, and WA) tailored for children and young adults with autism. Treatment protocols can include Leucovorin and Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) when clinically appropriate. Functional lab testing options include the Organic Acids Test (OAT), MTHFR gene testing, GI-MAP comprehensive stool testing with parasitology, heavy metal testing, and mold (mycotoxin) testing.

Family nurse practitioner Dr. April Lam also supports protocols for co-occurring conditions including PANS/PANDAS, OCD, ADHD, MCAS (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome), EBV (Epstein-Barr Virus), EDS (Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome), and ARFID (Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder).
