Frequently Asked
QuestionsQ: What Is Allergen Immunotherapy?
Allergen Immunotherapy is a 100% natural medication and the most reliable and effective means of desensitizing your body to allergens, the substances that can cause an allergic reaction. In some people, the immune system thinks allergens are foreign or dangerous. Known as antigens, these substances may be foreign substance from the environment, such as chemicals, bacteria, viruses, or pollen, or may be formed inside the body, as with bacterial toxins or tissue cells. Both cause the immune system to produce antibodies against it, and when an antigen attaches itself to your body’s cells, you experience a bad reaction depending on your sensitivity to that specific antigen. Through proper testing and treatment formulation using Allergen Immunotherapy, your body will learn to build its immunity to these allergies, lessening their effects and improving daily life. Most treatments you receive do not interfere with prescribed allergy treatments and our allergy technician and your physician may explain this process in more detail.
Q: How Long Will The Immunotherapy Treatment Last?
Patient treatments typically last for 2 to 5 years however patients can experience relief within the first months of treatment.
Q: Who Can Be Tested?
Patients of any age can be tested for food and environmental allergies.
Q: Which Allergies Do You Test For?
Our solutions test for both common environmental and food allergies.
Q: How Is Immunotherapy Administered?
We have subcutaneous immunotherapy which can be offered in the practice. Depending on the state and insurance, some patients may be able to be trained to self administer at home, increasing compliance and convenience.
Sublingual drops can also be purchased by the patient for around $50 per month for treatment.
Q: How Long Does This Test Take?
Fingerstick testing just takes a few minutes. Allergy testing takes a little longer as the patient must wait for a skin response.
Q: Are Immunotherapy And Allergy Testing Covered By Insurance?
Most private insurances reimburse for allergy testing and treatment as well as federal payers. Reimbursements vary from state to state and plan to plan. Check the coding with your billing staff.

Alergies In
AmericaPrevalence
An estimated 50 million Americans (1 in 5) suffer from some type of allergy, including indoor/outdoor, food and drug, latex, insect, skin, and eyes. The overall number of allergy sufferers has been increasing since the early 1980s across all age, sex, and racial groups, and many people have more than one type of allergy.
Allergy is the 5th leading chronic disease in the U.S. among all ages, and the 3rd most common chronic disease among children under 18 years old.
Indoor and Outdoor Allergies – Approximately 40 million Americans have indoor/outdoor allergies as their primary allergy, including allergic rhinitis, seasonal/perennial allergies, hay fever, and other nasal allergies. The most common indoor/outdoor allergy triggers are: tree, grass and weed pollen; mold spores; dust mite and cockroach allergen; and cat, dog, and rodent dander. Approximately 10 million people are allergic to cat dander, the most common pet allergy.
Skin Allergies – Approximately 7% of allergy sufferers have skin allergies as their primary allergy, including atopic dermatitis, eczema, hives, urticarial, and contact allergies. Plants such as poison ivy, poison oak, and poison sumac are the most common skin allergy triggers, however skin contact with cockroach and dust mite allergen, certain foods, or latex may also trigger symptoms of skin allergy.
Morbidity
Allergies are the most frequently reported chronic condition in children, limiting activities for more than 40%.
Each year, allergies account for more than 17 million outpatient office visits, primarily in the spring and fall. Seasonal allergies account for more than half of all allergy visits.
Skin allergies account for more than 7 million outpatient visits each year.
Food allergies account for 30,000 visits to the emergency room each year.
Exposure to the latex allergen is responsible for over 200 cases of anaphylaxis (severe allergic reactions) annually.
Social And Economic Costs
The annual cost of allergies is estimated to be nearly $14.5 billion.
Nearly 85% ($12.3 billion) is for direct costs, including $1.3 billion for doctor office visits and $11 billion for medications ($7 billion prescription, $4 billion over-the-counter).
Indirect costs of allergy (missed work or school, lost productivity, death, etc.) account for approximately $2.2 billion (15%) of the total annual cost of allergies in the U.S
For adults, allergies (hay fever) is the 5th leading chronic disease and a major cause of work absenteeism and “presenteeism,” resulting in nearly 4 million missed or lost workdays each year and a total cost of more than $700 million in total lost productivity.
