Prior Authorization and Quantity Limits
|
Some drugs, and certain amounts of some drugs, require an approval before they can be covered by your patients' benefits. This process is called prior authorization.
- Drugs indicated as non-formulary cannot be approved through the prior authorization process.
- The prescribing provider should contact Wellmark’s Clinical Call Center at 800-600-8065 or refer to the CVS/caremark Prior Authorization Information page to download the Global Prior Authorization Form
 and fax to 866-249-6155 to request approval for specialty drugs requiring prior authorization. Obtaining the approval in advance will help to prevent delays at the pharmacy.
- If the drug is approved, the prescription can be filled at any in-network pharmacy.
Your patient can log in to myWellmark to check his or her benefits to see if a drug is covered.
Most prescription drugs are limited to a maximum quantity in a single prescription. Federal regulations limit the quantity that may be dispensed for certain medications. If your prescription is so regulated, it may not be available in the amount prescribed by your health care provider.
In addition, coverage for certain drugs is limited to specific quantities per month, benefit year, or lifetime. Amounts in excess of quantity limitations are not covered unless there is prior authorization criteria in place to request additional quantities and approval is granted.
Your patient's benefits certificate, coverage manual, or policy has specific information about his or her plan's prior authorization requirements.
