A structured, lab-guided program for clients who want their metabolic foundation measured and optimized in service of cognitive performance and long-term brain health — comprehensive baseline panels, a clinician-built plan, staged re-testing, and a quantified before/after. This is the transacting program built on MindForge Functional Medicine.
MindForge doesn't bill insurance — by design. Direct-pay is what makes an individualized, intensive program possible rather than care shaped by billing codes. HSA/FSA and financing options exist, and a written Good Faith Estimate precedes any commitment.
The program shape: comprehensive baseline (laboratory panels across metabolic, inflammatory, nutrient, and hormonal domains + cognitive baseline) → your Neuro-Performance Plan: targeted interventions with clear rationale → structured follow-through with clinician check-ins → re-test against your own baseline at defined milestones. Duration and investment: individualized within that structure — your exact quote comes precisely, in writing, with your baseline results and a written Good Faith Estimate, before you begin.
Who it's for: performing professionals treating cognition as infrastructure · brain-longevity clients building a measured prevention practice · post-program patients converting recovery into optimization. Who it's not for: anyone seeking treatment for an active medical condition — that's clinical care, it starts at the Discovery Day, and we'll tell you so on the call.
Start: 15-minute call — program inquiry, scheduled live with a person.
Frequently asked questions
How is this different from an annual physical?
Depth, purpose, and follow-through: panels chosen for performance and brain-health decisions, a plan you execute with clinician support, and re-testing that proves movement.
Do you prescribe?
Where findings warrant medical intervention, the medical team manages it within scope or refers — the program is optimization, not disease treatment.
Can I use HSA/FSA funds?
Often — and a Letter of Medical Necessity path applies where appropriate; see ways to pay.
