No. Actually not cheaper. My Xyosted is 100% covered by insurance.
My new doctor is out-of-state and can't write prescriptions for California. The drugs are shipped to me--also from out-of-state. I'm paying for everything (drugs, needles, lab tests). My TRT has gone from "free" to "spendy". I might be able to get some reimbursement for some of it (like some of the lab tests). But I doubt I'll get help on anything else.
Looking at the big picture--this is really pretty stupid. The insurance company would save a lot of money by approving my switch from Xyosted to syringe injecting. I will try to reach out to them and explore what it might take to get coverage, but I'm not holding my breath.
