Frequently Asked Questions

REBEL Institute of Health provides a unique approach to personalized care. Jillian has an extensive background in the traditional model of healthcare which has prepared her to be able to identify when problems are beyond the scope of solely utilizing lifestyle measures for management. She also puts an emphasis on the foundational methods of lifestyle management. This means her go-to method of treating and diagnosing does not automatically include expensive specialty testing and other extravagant measures.

Unlike traditional medicine, which often emphasizes symptom management, functional medicine seeks to understand the underlying imbalances and lifestyle factors that contribute to health issues. Integrative medicine is essentially a combination of functional and conventional medicine. It aims to enhance overall health and well-being by creating a personalized treatment plan that draws from the best of both conventional and complementary approaches.

Many insurance companies have limitations on coverage for functional medicine services, particularly when it comes to preventive care and holistic treatments that address root causes rather than just symptoms. By not accepting insurance, we can maintain our focus on individualized care, spend more time with each patient, and offer a wider range of services that may not be covered under traditional plans. We want to ensure that you receive the best possible care without being constrained by insurance policies. We can provide detailed invoices that you can submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement.
