Build Health MD

Build Health MD offers two membership tiers: Premium and Basic. Both include primary care and chronic condition management. Premium membership adds guaranteed same or next day visits, body scans, EKG, lung study, skin exam, cryotherapy, and urine check. Membership requires an initial three-month commitment but carries no long-term contract after that. Annual members receive their last month free.

No. Build Health MD does not require insurance. The practice recommends pairing membership with a high-deductible health plan or a healthshare for broader coverage. Membership itself does not function as health insurance.

FSA and HSA funds may apply toward your Build Health MD membership. The practice recommends checking with your plan administrator to confirm eligibility for your specific account.

Dr. Nachiappan uses a root-cause framework she calls Measure, Practice, Build Health. She starts with a comprehensive physical and tracks a wide range of metrics using an InBody body composition scanner and hospital-grade equipment. From there, she works with each patient on goals and lifestyle changes designed to prevent and manage chronic conditions over time.
