Prescription & Prescriber Information

Do you need an Expedited (Fast) Decision?

If you have a supporting statement from your prescriber, attach it to this request.

  • If you or your prescriber believe that waiting 7 days for a standard decision could seriously harm your life, health, or ability to regain maximum function, you can ask for an expedited (fast) decision.
  • If your prescriber indicates that waiting 7 days could seriously harm your health, we’ll automatically give you a decision within 72 hours. You can’t ask for an expedited appeal if you’re asking us to pay you back for a drug you already have.
  • If you don’t get your prescriber's support for an expedited appeal, we’ll decide if your case requires a fast decision.
Explain why you think this Drug should be covered
  • Attach any additional information you think may help your case, like statement from your prescriber or medical records.
  • Include a copy of the Notice of Denial of Medicare Prescription Drug Coverage.
  • Your prescriber will need to explain why you can’t meet our plan’s coverage rules and/or why the drugs required by the plan aren’t medically appropriate for you.
