Unitized Transdisciplinary Care Model (UTC)

A team-based approach to treating chronic pain rooted in science, compassion, and whole-person care.

Why UTC Works

The Unitized Transdisciplinary Care (UTC) model brings together medical, behavioral, and integrative care—delivered by one team, all in one place. This unified approach gives patients consistent, coordinated support that evolves with their needs.

One Team, Many Experts

Doctors, therapists, and specialists collaborate in real time.

Monthly Visits, 
Evolving Plans

Care adapts as progress happens.

Whole-Person Focus

We treat more than pain, we treat what pain impacts.

Built on Trust

Consistent relationships, not rotating providers.

Built for people living with pain.

Our model is built for people living with chronic pain — especially those who’ve tried everything else. If you’ve been told there’s nothing more to do, this is for you.

You may be a fit if you have:

Chronic pain that’s affecting your life

like back pain, fibromyalgia, joint issues, or post-surgical pain.

Tried other treatments

but still haven’t found lasting relief.

More than one health challenge

physical, emotional, or even daily life stressors.

Concerns about medication

and want a more holistic path forward.

A desire for truly personalized care

that brings all your providers together in one place.

Barriers to care

like language, insurance confusion, or lack of consistent support.

A goal to feel better, and stay better, not just get a temporary fix.

Simple steps.
Whole-person support.

We focus on getting you back to what matters most—your family, your freedom, and your quality of life.

You’ll be introduced to your Care Concierge, who will walk alongside you throughout your care. From the very first visit, we’ll create a personalized plan based on your needs, goals, and how we can help you make consistent progress.

What types of care are available? 

Depending on your needs, your plan may include medical care, interventional procedures, behavioral health support, nutrition, and physical movement. Everything is designed to work together for you.

Do you take my insurance?

We accept most major insurance plans, including Medicare, Medicaid (where applicable), and commercial insurers. Our team can help verify your benefits and walk you through the process.

How often will I visit Lifekind Health? 

Visit frequency depends on your care plan. Some patients come weekly, others less frequently—always aligned with your goals and care milestones.
