What is Crossfit Precision Care?
CrossFit Precision Care is a primary care service, built by and for the CrossFit community, that provides an individualized, proactive, and data-driven approach to lifelong health.
Doctors and health coaches from CrossFit Precision Care use precise genomic and biomarker testing to help each person build a plan that will protect and improve their health. The result is a fully personalized and comprehensive health optimization plan, covering diet, exercise, sleep, supplements, chronic disease risk, and other lifestyle factors.
- Data-driven, cutting edge, personalized plan, driven by your biometrics, biomarkers, genetics & lifestyle, to help you maximize your health, happiness & performance
- Doctors & health coaches who understand CrossFit, your goals & your lifestyle
- A deep dive and ongoing check ins with your health team to keep you educated, motivated & track progress
- Primary care coverage to manage both complex and everyday health needs
- The support of the CrossFit community on a whole new level
How does CrossFit Precision Care work?
CrossFit Precision Care is based on several core principles:
- CrossFit training and CrossFit-trained doctors and health coaches are the best guides on the path to good health.
- Each individual’s health plan should be based on their unique genes and biomarkers, not cookie-cutter tips and formulaic advice.
- Health recommendations should keep pace with current scientific research and best practices instead of obsolete models and defunct data.
- Doctors should help each patient build a proactive plan to keep them healthy as they age rather than pushing pills and procedures after a crisis.
- Effective healthcare should involve ongoing and measurable improvement, all trackable on an interactive dashboard for patients to follow.
Who is this for?
CrossFit Precision Care is for anyone who is looking for a comprehensive, data-driven approach to their health — whether you want to prevent disease, optimize an aspect of your health, or just feel your best every day. Our vision is to enable your vision of health.
Why is CrossFit launching this?
In a recent survey, members of the CrossFit community said their top priority in selecting a healthcare provider was finding someone who understood their unique body and health needs, as CrossFit Precision Care was designed to do.
Chronic disease is more rampant than ever in the U.S., with over 60% of Americans affected. We know the CrossFit prescription works, and we’ve heard feedback from affiliates and members alike asking for a more comprehensive offering from CrossFit. By emphasizing that the foundation of fitness includes nutrition, sleep, recovery, disease risk factors, and more, we can provide true health to our community and to the world.
Who is involved with this product?
CrossFit Precision Care was developed by Dr. Julie Foucher and other CrossFit-trained physicians at Wild Health, a genomic-based precision care platform that has been seeing patients and delivering this method of care, with incredible patient outcomes, since 2018.
Who will be providing my care?
You will be placed into a care team with a doctor, health coach and care coordinator. Our care teams are composed of people passionate about changing healthcare, and they’re also a part of the CrossFit community, including affiliate owners, coaches, and athletes just like you!
Is this primary care?
Yes! We take responsibility for your overall care and health. If you get sick, we can often address your concerns via telemedicine, but if you need a physical exam, we may refer you to an in-person provider or you can select another primary care doctor to address that issue. We can still serve your “precision” needs beyond standard primary care by partnering with your local doctor. Studies show a routine physical exam is not necessary unless there is a specific reason for it — so we leave that part up to you.
Is this in person care?
No, this is a fully digital service delivered through telemedicine. You will be communicating with your care team via video calls and messaging in your patient portal.
Will this be covered by insurance?
While direct primary care, such as CrossFit Precision Care, is not yet covered by insurance, it is covered by Health Savings Accounts (HSAs), and many members choose to lower their insurance costs by increasing their insurance deductibles once they join CPC. Consult your benefits advisor for more details.
Can I join CrossFit Precision Care if I already have access to primary care via insurance?
Yes! CrossFit Precision Care not only provides robust primary care coverage; it also offers much more, including a holistic, data-driven and personalized approach to your health. By using your genomic test results, extensive bloodwork, and lifestyle consultations, it provides more personalized recommendations and insights than most patients receive in a traditional primary care setting.
Is CrossFit Precision Care intended to replace my health insurance?
No. This service is not meant to replace insurance. CrossFit Precision Care is fully digital and will not cover your needs if you require specialist visits, urgent care, or emergency room visits. If you’d like to move your primary care needs to CrossFit Precision Care, we recommend you maintain a baseline level of insurance, such as a catastrophic health insurance plan, to account for emergencies.
What's the added value of this service versus my existing primary care?
While we can serve as your primary care providers, we go far beyond traditional primary care. Your CrossFit Precision Care plan is different from traditional primary care in a number of ways:
1) Your precision care plan is personalized based on your unique DNA and biomarkers, so it’s built just for you.
2) We offer an array of extensive testing, including analysis of bloodwork, microbiome, epigenetic age, and more.
3) You receive a fully comprehensive health plan – with diet, sleep, supplement recommendations, and more.
4) You can track all your health metrics in one place and be educated, engaged, and in control of your own health.
5) You get access to a health coach to help you along your health journey.
6) We focus on prevention and optimization, not just taking care of you once you’re already sick, so you can truly maximize your health and longevity.
How does this work?
It’s simple - think of it as a centralized hub for your health, happiness and performance. Here’s a basic rundown of how it works:
- Select the level of care that’s right for your lifestyle and personalize your plan to your needs and budget.
- We’ll collect inputs through an intake questionnaire, bloodwork, genetic biomarkers, wearable data and more.
- You’ll receive fully personalized recommendations on diet, movement, recovery, sleep and more - all tailored to your biomarkers & goals.4) Meet with your health coach & doctor to track progress against your health plan and cover your ongoing health needs.
- Meet with your health coach & doctor to track progress against your health plan and cover your ongoing health needs.
Where will this be available?
CrossFit Precision Care will be available to more than 50% of U.S. residents at launch before expanding to the rest of the country in 2022. Launch states include California, Colorado, Florida, Kentucky, Massachusetts, New York, Tennessee, and Texas. We hope to expand the service globally following that U.S. rollout. Sign up for our waiting list and you’ll be notified when we’re available in your area!
Why are you only launching in eight states?
Physician licensure varies on a state-by-state basis, and we’re working hard to expand licensing for our physicians as well as hire physicians licensed in all 50 states! If you’re a doctor licensed in additional states and interested in joining CrossFit Precision Care, please apply to work with us here.
Why isn’t this available internationally?
Healthcare regulations and requirements vary dramatically across different countries, and it will take additional time to navigate those complexities for our non-U.S. rollout. We are committed to sharing this service with the CrossFit community worldwide, and we appreciate your patience as we work toward that goal.
Should I still join the waitlist if my state isn't on the list?
Absolutely. Not only will you receive access to exclusive health content and events; you’ll also help us prioritize which states to expand to next!
How much does Crossfit Precision Care cost?
We have plans from $99-299/month so you have the flexibility to meet your needs and your budget. You can see full details here.
What is included in my plan?

I signed up for the waitlist. When will I get access?
We appreciate your interest in the service and your patience in waiting! We plan to continuously expand the number of participants as we move into early 2022, and we will keep you updated on our progress.
Can I join CrossFit Precision Care if I have preexisting conditions?
Definitely. Our service is designed to help prevent, slow, or even reverse chronic disease. In fact, our partners at Wild Health have seen results such as a 17% reduction in HbA1c in diabetic patients and a 52% decrease in inflammation (a common indicator of many chronic conditions).
Can you work with my existing doctors?
Absolutely. We are happy to share reports, notes, labs, and anything else you need with your existing team of doctors and to partner on helping you live your best, healthiest life.
What if I need speciality or in-person care?
We’re happy to refer you for specialist or in-person care if necessary for follow-up care! Eventually, we hope to build a network of specialists who are part of the CrossFit Precision Care community.
