Will insurance cover testosterone replacement treatment?
In some instances of low testosterone levels, most insurance will cover replacement therapy. For most insurance carriers, coverage for testosterone replacement treatments depends on the level of testosterone in your system. Finding this can be as easy as taking a small blood sample.
We will run a simple blood test showing your testosterone levels, this is best when done in the morning. Insurance companies understand that hormone levels peak at certain times of the day. And most insurance companies will cover replacement therapy when you qualify for low levels in the morning. With two separate blood tests, done on different days, you will most likely be covered if your levels are below 350ng/dL – depending on your insurance company.
