Why use TrueMed if I can just go to my doctor and get a letter of medical necessity?

On almost all insurance plans, the copay for a doctors visit is usually $30 or more.

• TrueMed takes 3 minutes; going to a doctor’s visit takes an hour plus.
• We have heard in many cases that doctors won’t prescribe exercise because 90% of doctors in the US didn’t take one class on nutrition or exercise’s impact on disease. In many major practices, doctors are only able to prescribe what their guidelines tell them to in the computer – which isn’t exercise.
• You might spend more time and money making a doctor’s visit to try and get your letter of medical necessity and they may not be willing to provide it.
• TrueMed provides customer support on the reimbursement process and a guarantee it will go through.

If you have a doctor that will write a letter of medical necessity for exercise so you can get reimbursed by your HSA/FSA then you don’t need to use TrueMed. We recommend you contact your HSA/FSA to ask questions about their specific process.

Additional information and resources:

• When we say you can save 30% – 40% that is the amount you save by reimbursing yourself with tax-free HSA/FSA funds. Your savings is equal to your income tax rate.
• You do not need to change how you pay for your membership at Standard Strength – TrueMed enables you to reimburse your payments with HSA/FSA funds – and you simply need to do it once per calendar year. In fact, we cannot accept HSA/FSA cards because those types of cards have restrictions on where you can use them and the charges don’t go through. Just keep paying for your membership as you always have with your current card on file and submit to be reimbursed by your HSA/FSA.
