Integrative medicine is a patient-centered, healing-oriented approach that considers the whole person – body, mind, and spirit – including all aspects of lifestyle. It emphasizes the therapeutic relationship and makes use of all appropriate evidence-based therapies, both conventional and complementary. The goal is to address the root causes of illness and promote optimal wellness by combining modern medical treatments with scientifically-supported complementary modalities such as nutrition, acupuncture, mindfulness, and massage therapy.

Both functional and integrative medicine are holistic, patient-centered models that focus on identifying and addressing the root causes of disease. The primary distinction lies in their framework and emphasis.

Integrative medicine is a broad umbrella that emphasizes blending conventional Western treatments with complementary, evidence-based therapies. It focuses on the whole person and the therapeutic partnership.

Functional medicine operates as a specific systems-biology based framework within integrative medicine. It often uses in-depth laboratory testing to understand the body’s underlying biochemical imbalances and focuses heavily on creating individualized dietary, lifestyle, and supplement protocols to restore physiological function.

Aspect

Integrative Medicine

Functional Medicine

Primary Focus

The whole person (mind, body, spirit) and the synergistic combination of conventional and complementary therapies. 

Identifying and correcting the root causes of disease through a deep understanding of each patient’s biochemical individuality and genetic makeup.

Core Approach

Healing-oriented, emphasizing the therapeutic relationship and using all appropriate evidence-based tools from multiple traditions.

A systems-biology based approach, heavily focused on how physiology, genetics, and environment interact. Often involves advanced diagnostic testing.

Diagnostic Emphasis

Comprehensive patient history and standard diagnostics, with openness to a variety of assessment tools. 

Heavy utilization of specialized functional lab tests (e.g., comprehensive stool analysis, hormone panels, organic acid tests) to map metabolic pathways and imbalances.

Therapeutic Tools

Includes a wide array: pharmaceuticals, surgery, acupuncture, massage, mindfulness, physical therapy, etc.

Primarily centers on personalized nutrition, lifestyle modification, nutraceuticals, supplements, and stress management; may refer out for other manual or mind-body therapies.

Relationship

The overarching philosophy and model of care. 

Often considered a specialized, in-depth methodology that is frequently practiced within the broader integrative medicine model.

In practice, these fields are deeply interconnected, and many practitioners are trained in and utilize both approaches to provide comprehensive care.

Insurance coverage for integrative medicine varies significantly by provider, plan, and state. While many insurers now cover certain evidence-based complementary therapies like acupuncture or chiropractic care for specific conditions, comprehensive integrative medicine consultations and some therapies may be out-of-network. Coverage often depends on:

  1. medical necessity,
  2. provider licensure, and;
  3. a service being coded as a covered benefit.

To determine your coverage, it is recommended to contact your insurance provider directly with specific CPT codes for the services you are considering and verify in-network status with the integrative medicine practitioner.
