Defy Medical Physical?

[Vince Carter]

I find that my insurance covers it almost totally as long as my clinic inputs it as an annual wellness exam and I ask my favorite Nurse Practioner to fill in that form, if she asks I say it's for work. I made the mistake of last year calling it a work physical and got billed for the full amount.

One alternative is to have a regular annual physical at your PCP and ask for the records. No need to mention anything other than you would like to keep these records. By law you have the right to have access to your medical records

My clinic actually has a self-service portal, I think most do now days.

Fortunately, my PCP knows that he doesn't know TRT and was happy to refer it out. He's a rare breed.

However, and before saying this I should state that I am a HUGE fan of Defy and think their model should be the future of medicine, but - the name does not do them any favors in this regard. I think their care is top notch and have zero complaints about them, but when medical professionals see a name like "Defy Medical", I'm not surprised that some raise an eyebrow.

I never use the words "Defy Medical", I always say that Dr. Justin Saya is directing my TRT care. They never bat an eye.

Interesting observation.

CVS minute clinic worked for me. Defy sent me a plain physical exam form with no mention of Defy.
I told the lady I needed it for jiu jitsu but I suggest just saying karate or tae Kwon do. She did not know what jiu jitsu was and said oh no, we can’t do MMA. I had to explain. Thankfully I explained to her in detail the difference and she obliged.
