Immune Health & Autoimmunity Assessment for Functional Medicine Practitioners
A structured, evidence-informed screening tool that evaluates immune function through the lens of functional medicine. Helps practitioners identify infection susceptibility patterns, autoimmune risk factors, and gut-immune connections — in about 3 minutes, before the first appointment. Patients receive an instant, personalized health archetype report upon completion.
What This Assessment Covers
Infection Susceptibility
Evaluates frequency, severity, and duration of infections — respiratory, sinus, urinary, and skin — as indicators of innate and adaptive immune function. Distinguishes between acute infection patterns and chronic low-grade activation.
Autoimmune Pattern Recognition
Screens for family history of autoimmune conditions, personal history of diagnosed autoimmunity, and symptom clusters suggestive of undiagnosed autoimmune processes — joint pain, rashes, fatigue, multi-system involvement.
Gut-Immune Axis Assessment
Identifies connections between digestive health and immune function — food sensitivities, gut permeability symptoms, antibiotic history, and microbiome disruption patterns that drive systemic immune activation.
Pre-Appointment Screening
Send the assessment link in booking confirmations or reminder emails. Patients complete it before they arrive, so you walk into the appointment with a structured immune profile — not a scattered history of "I get sick all the time."
Instant AI-Generated Report
Patients receive a personalized health archetype report immediately after completing the assessment. The report explains their results in plain language, builds trust, and primes them for your consultation.
Sample Questions
Each question is designed to be patient-friendly while gathering clinically useful data. Here are three examples from the immune assessment:
How often do you get sick?
- · Rarely — once a year or less, and I recover quickly
- · Occasionally — 2–3 times a year, normal recovery
- · Frequently — 4+ times a year, and it takes me longer to recover
- · Constantly — I feel like I catch everything going around
- · I rarely get acute infections, but I have chronic symptoms
Do you have a family history of autoimmune disease?
Yes — parent or sibling (Hashimoto's, RA, lupus, MS, celiac, etc.) · Yes — extended family · Not that I know of · I'm not sure
How long does it take you to recover from a common cold or infection?
3–5 days — normal recovery · 1–2 weeks — longer than average · 2+ weeks — it lingers · It often turns into something worse (sinus infection, bronchitis)
How It Works
Each immune health assessment follows a structured three-step flow that transforms infection history and autoimmune risk factors into an organized clinical picture. It is designed to capture enough immunological data for archetype mapping without overwhelming the patient.
Patient Completes
The patient answers 8–12 questions about infection history, autoimmune risk factors, digestive health, and inflammation symptoms. Takes about 3 minutes on any device.
Archetype Is Generated
The assessment maps responses to three evidence-informed immune archetypes: Immune Deficiency Pattern (Frequent Infections), Autoimmune / Hyper-Reactive Pattern, or Gut-Driven Immune Dysfunction.
Practitioner Reviews
Results are available in your Brevlix dashboard before the appointment. Use them to prioritize labs (ANA, CRP, food sensitivity panels, nutrient status) and structure the treatment plan.
Clinical Use Cases
From immune-focused functional medicine practices to general integrative clinics, practitioners embed immune screening into patient workflows in several key ways.
New Patient Intake
Send the assessment link alongside intake paperwork. By the time the patient arrives, you have immune history, infection frequency data, family autoimmune history, and a preliminary archetype — the first appointment starts with targeted lab priorities, not scattered history-taking.
Pre-Consultation Screening
For discovery calls or initial consultations, the assessment acts as a filter. Patients who complete it are pre-qualified and pre-educated about functional medicine approaches to immune health, making the consultation more productive.
Treatment Progress Tracking
Re-administer the assessment at 3- or 6-month intervals. Track shifts in infection frequency, symptom burden, and archetype changes — quantifiable data for patient progress reports and treatment plan adjustments.
Group Program Enrollment
Use the assessment as an enrollment gateway for immune restoration group programs. Stratify participants by archetype — Immune Deficiency types need different protocols than Autoimmune types.
Patient Intake Workflow
Adding immune health screening to your intake flow is straightforward. Most practices have the assessment running in a single afternoon — here is the typical setup sequence:
Generate Your Assessment Link
From your Brevlix dashboard, choose the immune health assessment and customize your branding, booking link, and widget appearance. Copy the unique assessment link or embed code — no coding or developer help required.
Add to Booking Flow
Paste the link into your booking confirmation email, intake form, or appointment reminder. Most EHRs and scheduling platforms (Acuity, Calendly, Practice Better) support adding custom links to automated emails.
Embed on Your Website
Copy the Brevlix embed script and paste it onto any page — your homepage, a dedicated "Work With Me" page, or a services listing. The assessment renders as an interactive widget that matches your branding.
Review Before the Appointment
Completed assessments appear in your Brevlix dashboard. Review the immune profile, archetype result, and root cause directions before the patient arrives. Walk into every appointment with a data-informed clinical picture.
How practices use this today: Functional medicine practitioners send the immune assessment link in Calendly confirmation emails, embed it on Squarespace intake pages, and include it in Practice Better onboarding sequences. Patients complete it at home, on their phone, before the appointment — so the first visit is about solutions, not history-taking.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I edit the assessment questions?
The assessment questions are maintained by Brevlix and updated based on functional medicine research and practitioner feedback. You can choose from 12 pre-built health topics and customize your branding, booking link, and widget appearance to match your practice.
What does the patient see after completing the assessment?
Patients receive an instant, personalized health archetype report based on their responses. The report explains their results in accessible language, highlights relevant health patterns, and includes a clear next step — typically booking a consultation with your practice.
Can I embed this assessment on my website?
Yes. Brevlix provides an embed script — copy and paste onto any page. Works with Squarespace, WordPress, Wix, and custom sites. Practitioners frequently add it to their autoimmune program enrollment page or send it in pre-consultation email sequences.
Can an assessment help identify autoimmune patterns before diagnosis?
It screens for patterns — multi-system symptoms, family history, and gut-immune dysfunction — that raise clinical suspicion for autoimmunity and help practitioners decide when to order antibody testing. It cannot diagnose autoimmune disease but can flag patients who warrant further investigation.
What's the difference between screening and diagnosis?
Screening identifies patterns and risk factors — it tells you who to test and what to look for. Diagnosis requires lab work, imaging, and clinical correlation. This assessment is a screening tool that makes the diagnostic process more efficient.
