(Up to 40 allergens – including pollens, dust mites, pets, molds):

-
Monitor progress: Ensure that your treatment is working effectively and address any potential issues.
-
Provide ongoing care: Adjust medications, therapies, or lifestyle recommendations based on your current health status.

Answer questions: Clarify any doubts you might have or provide additional information about your recovery or next steps.

$475
An oral food challenge is a closely monitored visit where we safely test your response to a specific food. You’ll be cared for every step of the way, with medical supervision and emergency precautions in place. The process usually takes up to three hours and helps us confirm whether a true food allergy is present—or rule it out with confidence.
$900
Patch testing helps identify topical substances like fragrances or metals that cause delayed skin allergies, often responsible for chronic rashes or eczema. Small amounts of common allergens are placed on the back and worn for several days, followed by brief in-office checks over the week to see how your skin reacts. This allows us to pinpoint triggers and create a personalized plan to help your skin heal.
$300
If you notice a sudden worsening of your allergy or asthma symptoms, or if you experience any unexpected or concerning reactions, please contact us as soon as possible. Prompt evaluation can help prevent complications and keep you safe. Examples can include asthma exacerbation or an eczema flare. (Urgent visits are included in the membership plan.)
For any severe or life-threatening symptoms, please call 911 or visit the nearest emergency room immediately.
$50
To better understand your breathing and evaluate conditions like asthma, we may recommend simple, non-invasive tests such as spirometry (also known as pulmonary function tests.) Spirometry measures how well your lungs are working by assessing airflow and lung function. This test provides valuable information that helps us tailor your treatment plan for better breathing and overall respiratory health.
$75 Initial prior authorization submission
$75 Appeal if authorization is denied
$125 If peer-to-peer review with insurance physician is requiredSome medications and biologic therapies require prior authorization from your insurance company before they will approve coverage. Unfortunately, this process often involves significant back-and-forth communication with insurers, submitting detailed clinical documentation, responding to additional requests, and sometimes completing multiple rounds of appeals or peer-to-peer reviews.
At Inspire Allergy & Asthma, we are committed to advocating for our patients when insurance approval is required. However, managing prior authorizations requires dedicated physician and staff time coordinating with insurance companies. To keep our pricing transparent and sustainable, fees apply when our team completes this work on your behalf. While we work hard to support patients through this process, insurance companies ultimately make the final decision regarding medication approval and coverage.
This process is commonly required for biologic medications used to treat severe asthma, eczema, chronic sinus disease with nasal polyps, and other allergic conditions, such as Dupixent®, Xolair®, Nucala®, Fasenra®, or Tezspire®.
Patients receiving biologic therapies often find that our membership model provides the best overall value, as prior authorization submissions and ongoing biologic coordination are included in membership services.
$300/hour
Phone or text support after the two-week communication period following your visit will be charged in 10-minute increments, prorated to $300/hour. A follow-up visit may be recommended depending on the complexity of the question.
$10 per page per form
We know that managing allergies and asthma often comes with plenty of forms! Our team is happy to help with school, camp, or action plan paperwork related to your care. Because these forms take time and attention to complete accurately, please allow a few business days for processing.
$50 / injection
Biologic treatments are used for patients with severe asthma, food allergies, chronic hives, or nasal polyps that don't respond well to standard therapies. If prescribed, you can choose to receive these targeted injections at our clinic under medical supervision to ensure safety and effectiveness.
Cost dependent on service
In addition to our core allergy and asthma services, we offer select evaluations and care options on an individualized basis. These may include areas such as medication or vaccine allergy evaluations, mast cell–related symptom assessments, immune system evaluations, or other specialized consultations. Services are considered thoughtfully based on your symptoms, goals, and clinical history, and are discussed together prior to scheduling to ensure the right approach for your care.
