The demand for integrative medicine in primary US hospitals has been increasing. To meet this demand, a number of hospitals have been trialing integrative medicine programs and investigating the result on patient care. A number of studies and reviews have detailed that these types of programs have been well received with positive outcomes. When an integrative medicine clinic was implemented in a large California community hospital, 160 patients were recruited to investigate the effects of the clinic on their overall health. The researchers concluded that clients reported substantial improvements in their symptoms and that an integrative health clinic could co-exist with a traditional major western medical center. The main limitation was that the trial was not controlled and thus they could not make any definitive statements about the outcomes.

Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) is the popular name for health care practices that traditionally have not been part of conventional medicine. In many cases, as evidence of efficacy and safety grows, these therapies are being combined with conventional medicine. Thus, the term alternative has been dropped and replaced with newer terms, such as complementary and integrative medicine, integrative medicine and health, or just integrative medicine.
