Functional Medicine of Idaho

About Functional Medicine of Idaho

What is Functional Medicine of Idaho?

Functional Medicine of Idaho is a multi-office practice that combines primary care, functional medicine and specialty regenerative services. It has offices in Boise, Meridian and Eagle, Idaho, and offers virtual visits. Most of its work is primary and functional care for adults and children. Weight loss, peptides and hormone optimization are among its specialty services, alongside IV therapy, sports and orthopedic medicine and PRP treatments.

The prescribers named include Dr. Mark Holthouse, FAAFP, IFMCP, MD, its chief medical officer, Dr. David Musnick, IFMCP, MD, and Amy Ray, FNP-BC, IFMCP, MSN, along with other physician assistants and nurse practitioners. The clinic does not say which of them handles weight loss. Its weight loss program offers compounded tirzepatide and compounded semaglutide, each paired with pyridoxine (B6) or cyanocobalamin (B12), filled by a 503A or 503B pharmacy partner and shipped directly to the patient. In its own words: "Our providers may prescribe GLP-1 or GLP/GIP therapies when clinically appropriate after a medical evaluation." Google shows a 4.5 rating from 300 reviews.

This listing is for its Meridian office at 2939 W Excursion Ln.

What does it cost?

The clinic lists $180 for each compounded tirzepatide option and $128 for each compounded semaglutide option. Its weight loss care levels also list medication prices starting at $160 for GLP-1 therapies and $152 for GLP/GIP therapies. These figures do not match, and the clinic does not say whether any price is monthly or per dose, or whether medication is included.

Office visits are billed to insurance for in-network patients, and medications are billed separately. Primary care has no monthly membership. Functional care requires a membership, but no price is given. Specialty care is cash pay, and its peptide prices depend on the therapy and scope of care. The clinic does not publish a consultation fee and does not state cancellation terms.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who signs the weight loss prescription and whether that person is one of the prescribers named. Ask whether the $180 and $128 figures are monthly or per dose, and why they differ from the $160 and $152 starting prices. Ask what the consultation, lab work and follow-up visits will cost, since labs and medications are billed separately at the functional care level. Ask whether a brand-name version of the medication is available, and what compounded means for the product you would receive. Ask which states your virtual visit covers, because one listing names Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Utah, Montana and Wyoming, while another names only Idaho, Oregon, Washington and Utah. Ask for the Boise office hours, the cancellation terms, and how many years the practice has been open, since none of these is stated.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want a practice where office visits can go through insurance, you are comfortable with compounded medication, and you will confirm prices, membership terms and the prescriber in writing before you commit. If you want one flat monthly price that covers everything, ask for that answer before you book.
