Why is this not covered by insurance?

Although there is much evidence that lifestyle and metabolic changes can impact cancer outcomes, there are few large scale randomized clinical trials to confirm these benefits. This means that they are not considered “standard of care”, are not included in most cancer treatment guidelines, and therefore are not covered by insurance.

Exceptions

There are a few exceptions to this, including:

  • Medical weight loss programs
  • Physical therapy
  • Rehabilitation for specific complications related to treatment
