What is a letter of medical necessity, and how long does the approval process take?Updated 15 days ago

The items in your Truemed Letter of Medical Necessity (“LMN”) are now qualified medical expenses in the same way a visit to the doctor’s office or pharmaceutical product is.


There are thousands of studies showing food and exercise is often the best medicine to prevent and reverse disease. Food, supplements, and other wellness purchases qualify as medical expenses if they treat, prevent, or manage an illness, and a doctor substantiates the need. Your Truemed LMN satisfies all IRS requirements to make your wellness spend fully reimbursable.

 Think of it as Truemed confirming:

  • What condition you’re managing (such as bone loss related to menopause, weight, or aging)
  • Why Bondia™ is part of your care plan
