What Apple Health Covers for Low Testosterone
Apple Health (Washington Medicaid) covers testosterone replacement therapy when there is a documented medical diagnosis of hypogonadism (low testosterone). Coverage includes:
- FDA-approved testosterone cypionate (generic injection) — typically $0–$5/month at pharmacy
- Required lab work (testosterone levels, CBC, metabolic panel)
- Follow-up physician visits for monitoring
- Prior authorization (PA) assistance — Revive handles this for you
Coverage varies by Apple Health managed care plan (Molina, Community Health Plan, UnitedHealthcare Community Plan, Coordinated Care, etc.). Our team will verify your specific plan at your first visit.

Apple Health TRT Coverage FAQ
Does Apple Health (Medicaid) cover testosterone therapy in Washington?
Yes. Washington Apple Health covers testosterone replacement therapy when medically necessary — meaning you have a confirmed diagnosis of hypogonadism with low testosterone levels documented by lab testing. Coverage applies to FDA-approved testosterone formulations (cypionate, enanthate) dispensed at your local pharmacy. Prior authorization is typically required.
How much does testosterone cost with Apple Health?
With Apple Health coverage, testosterone cypionate injection typically costs $0–$5/month at major pharmacies (Costco, Walgreens, CVS, Walmart). Apple Health generally has low or no co-pays for generic prescription drugs. Compare this to telehealth companies charging $100–$200/month for the same or inferior treatment without insurance coverage.
Does Revive accept Apple Health insurance?
Yes, Revive Low T Clinic accepts Apple Health (Washington Medicaid) plans at our Kirkland, Redmond, and Federal Way locations. This includes Molina Healthcare, Community Health Plan of Washington, UnitedHealthcare Community Plan, Coordinated Care, and Amerigroup. We verify your specific coverage before treatment begins.
What's the difference between Apple Health and Medicare for TRT?
Apple Health is Washington's Medicaid program — for lower-income individuals and families who qualify based on income. Medicare is the federal program for adults 65+ (and some younger people with disabilities). Both can cover testosterone therapy when medically necessary, but the coverage rules, co-pays, and prior authorization requirements differ. Revive accepts both.
Can I get TRT if I'm on Apple Health and don't have a primary care doctor?
Yes. You don't need a referral or established primary care relationship to be seen at Revive. Our physicians are licensed to diagnose and treat hypogonadism, order lab work, and prescribe testosterone. If your Apple Health plan requires a PCP referral for specialist visits, we can guide you through that process — but many Apple Health plans allow direct specialist access.
Real TRT. Real Coverage.
Don't pay $150+/month at a telehealth company when your Apple Health plan may cover the same or better treatment at Revive. Book a first visit and let us verify your coverage.
