FAQs

  • We currently see patients virtually in Florida and Missouri.

  • We do not accept insurance or Medicare. However you can use your FSA and HSA plans if you are enrolled in them to pay your medical bills. Some insurance carriers also may cover the cost of lab tests ordered.

  • You have unlimited access with both Dr. Rathod and Katie through direct messaging in your patient portal. We do ask that you allow 48 hours for replies and understand that we do not work weekends or holidays.

    Recurrent messaging may necessitate an office visit. Prescription solutions to a quick medical problem will incur an acute visit charge.

    As a patient you will also have access to Dr. Rathod & Katie’s monthly Live Q&A sessions where you can bring any non-sensitive questions, meet other patients and listen to questions you may not have thought of yourself. It’s a fun way to be a part of our FAIM community.

  • Once labs are requested and ordered by Dr. Rathod the labs will ship kits directly to you with detailed instructions to complete in the comfort of your own home. If labs such as bloodwork are requested, these can be completed at a local Quest or LabCorp near you. If Functional labs require bloodwork, this will be setup through a local phlebotomy site.

    Please note, all requested labs must be completed before your follow-up appointments, so we encouraging you to complete labs promptly.

  • The first step is always scheduling your Discovery Call, where you will virtually meet with both Dr. Rathod & Katie.

    Depending on which services you have purchased, your first New Patient appointment with Dr. Rathod and/or your Initial appointment with Katie will be scheduled. At the end of each appointment, we will schedule your next visit based off your individualized plan.

    Of course, this may be subject to change and we ask for a 48 hour notice. Please note, that this means for Monday appointments, we need a cancellation by the previous Thursday. You will have access to reschedule appointments through your patient portal.

  • Yes, Dr. Rathod is a fully licensed practitioner who can prescribe medications and specialty pharmacy drugs in her field, Rheumatology, such as Enbrel, Humira etc. Please note she no longer prescribes any controlled substances for pain, fatigue, ADHD and sleep.

  • Yes! As we are a virtual office, we cannot conduct full physical exams and therefore, cannot serve as your primary care. Often patients choose to work with us in addition to their PCP to provide a Functional Medicine perspective. This is okay with us, but we are still required by law to not title ourselves as primary care providers.

  • Yes, but since FAIM does not accept insurance this means you will not be reimbursed for the visit. Therefore, it is best to keep your rheumatologist and work with Dr. Rathod as your consultant. She will work with you to try and get your disease under control or even help you get rid of the inflammatory response to minimize the need for drug therapy, if possible.

  • Prescriptions and surgery work as the tools of the average practitioner. LIFESTYLE changes are what serve as our medicine. These types of changes are difficult to make alone. Katie serves as Dr. Rathod’s team consultant, keeping you on track with your medical prescription to change lifestyle.

    Read more about why health coaching works here.

  • We are similar in many ways, but each of us come with a different set of tools that we consider invaluable. FAIM Health uses health coaching with every patient to help you establish the lifestyle that allows you to regain your health.

    FAIM Health opened in 2022, however, unlike many new Functional Medicine practices, Dr. Rathod brings to you her expertise of over 30 years in medicine, with over 20 years in integrative medicine and practicing Functional Medicine in the last 10+ years.

    We think you will see and feel what sets us apart after one meeting, which is why we offer a free Discovery Call.
