Do you take insurance?

We do not file insurance directly: that gives the doctor greater flexibility in how she practices and enables her to spend more time with patients. Additionally, insurance companies would not reimburse many of the treatment modalities she offers anyway.

We could provide – upon request – coded invoices which patients could self-submit to private insurance companies. (We cannot provide such documentation for those who have government insurance such as Medicare, Medicaid, TriCare, and CHAMPVA; Dr. Roberts opted out of those programs to give her greater flexibility in how she practices and avoid having to conform to rigid practice guidelines.)

Success obtaining reimbursement depends on a variety of factors, including the condition for which you are seeing the doctor, your insurance company, and the details of your policy. For more information about the likelihood of receiving reimbursement for Dr. Roberts’ services, please contact the members helpline listed on your insurance card.

Does Dr. Roberts accept Medicare?

Dr. Roberts does not work through Medicare; that gives her greater flexibility in how she practices and the therapies she offers.

We have many patients with Medicare, but they usually have a primary care provider (PCP) as well. They usually see their primary care provider for services that Medicare would cover, such as DXA/DEXA bone density scans and routine bloodwork, and see Dr. Roberts as an adjunct for conditions such as alpha-gal syndrome, for bio-identical hormone replacement therapy, etc.
