[QUOTE="Jason Sypolt, post: 169754, member: 13328"] Right. If the medication (or medications) are not controlled then they could be called into your local pharmacy for a call-in fee that helps to cover the cost of paperwork and working with the pharmacy. You would be responsible for any cost for those medications. If your insurance covers then great. If they don't - and many are refusing coverage for TRT ancillaries, then you are left paying the cash price or using GoodRx. Most people order through the compounding pharmacies that we use because the cost is lower than the GoodRx price for name-brand medications, and the medications are shipped right to your door as a convinience. HCG is a good example of a cost comparison. Most insurance plans won't cover it at all because it is classified as a specialized fertility drug by many of them. The cost of 12,000iu of HCG from Empower is about $80. Name-brand Novarel which only comes in vials up to 10,000iu is $293.04 through GooxRx right now - nearly 4x the cost. Pregnyl, which is often out of stock and also only 10,000iu is slightly less. It is worth noting that HCG is also a controlled substance in several states now. Defy cannot call in prescriptions for controlled substances across state lines. [/QUOTE]
