Physician-led strategy consultation at YEARS in Berlin

Provider comparison, Europe

Fountain Life exists only in the US.In Europe there are three models.

Dallas, New York, Orlando, Naples, Houston, with Miami announced: every location is in the US, as of 24 August 2026. If you want that depth in Europe, the choice is between one-day diagnostics, a multi-night stay, and a fast scan. The difference is your time budget, not the technology.

  • US locations only
  • Three European models
  • With sources
  • GOÄ instead of a subscription

The short answer: an annual subscription that presumes travel.

Fountain Life works with annual memberships in several tiers, including CORE, APEX, Executive Health and a family package. The value is not in the initial work-up alone but in the ongoing guidance from physicians and coaches across the year. That is a strong model if you live within reach of one of the clinics.

Calculated from Europe the maths changes. A care model with appointments spread across the year requires several transatlantic trips, and the cost recurs annually. On top of that, the service is not billed under GOÄ, so partial reimbursement through German private health insurance is structurally impossible.

So the relevant question is not who has the longer list. It is whether you want a care relationship or a solid data baseline you act on yourself.

Fountain Life and three European alternatives

The first row is Fountain Life itself, as a reference. The three below stand for three models rather than three price brackets: one day, several nights, one hour.

Calculate over five years, not over one appointment

An annual subscription and a one-off programme cannot be compared on list price. The subscription continues, the programme does not. If you want to measure change over time you repeat a programme every one to two years, and that comparison only works if the panel stays identical.

So add three items together: the service itself, the travel including working time, and the share your private insurer may reimburse depending on your policy. With a US provider the third item disappears and the second recurs.

And one question that rarely gets asked: what happens to your data? At YEARS, from the Evolve programme upward 70 samples are cryopreserved, and clients can voluntarily join a prospective clinical registry. That is not a sales argument but a decision you should make deliberately.

Frequently asked questions

No. On its own website Fountain Life lists locations in Dallas, New York, Orlando, Naples and Houston, with Miami announced as coming soon, as of 24 August 2026. All of them are in the United States. For clients in German-speaking Europe a membership therefore means transatlantic travel, and because the model is built around ongoing care, it does not stop at one flight. If you want that diagnostic depth in Europe, a physician-led clinic such as YEARS in Berlin bundles the same procedures into a single day and bills under the German medical fee schedule.

Fountain Life works with annual memberships in several tiers, including CORE, APEX, Executive Health and a family package. You pay yearly and receive an initial diagnostic work-up plus ongoing guidance from physicians and coaches. YEARS charges one-off programme prices for a defined diagnostic run in a single day. After that you decide yourself whether and when to return. One is a care relationship, the other a data baseline. Both are legitimate, but they solve different problems and commit very different amounts of money over time.

Three clearly different models. First, physician-led one-day diagnostics: YEARS in Berlin, with 87 to more than 230 biomarkers, whole-body MRI and liquid biopsy from the Evolve programme upward. Second, the multi-night stay: Lanserhof, with locations at Tegernsee and on Sylt in Germany and in Lans in Austria, a medical base package plus a holistic concept across several nights. Third, the fast scan: Neko Health, nearest locations London and Stockholm, under an hour per appointment. Which one fits depends on how much time you want to invest and whether you are looking for guidance or findings.

With a physician-led clinic in Germany, yes, at least in part. YEARS bills all services under the German medical fee schedule (GOÄ), so privately insured clients can be reimbursed for a substantial share depending on their policy. The exact rate depends on the contract and should be clarified beforehand. With a US provider that route does not exist structurally: the service is not billed under GOÄ, and standard US insurance generally does not cover preventive programmes of this kind either. The full amount is therefore out of pocket.

Not by the biggest number. Providers count different things: data points, biomarkers, examinations. A single imaging test can generate hundreds of data points, which does not make a panel of 87 laboratory values smaller. Four questions work better: which procedures are actually included, particularly imaging and cancer detection? Who interprets the values, and how much physician time is allocated to it? Does the panel stay identical across years so a series is comparable? And what does it cost over five years rather than over one appointment?
