Prior Authorization

Prior authorization is needed for certain medications. If you have questions on a particular drug, please contact Customer Service or visit express-scripts.com to perform a coverage check. Please have your doctor call Express Scripts at 1-800-417-8164 to go through a clinical review on your medication if it is subject to prior authorization.
Prior Authorization is a program that helps you get the prescription drugs you need with safety, savings and — most
importantly — your good health in mind.
It helps you get the most from your healthcare dollars with prescription drugs
that work well for you and that are covered by your pharmacy benefit
. It also helps control the rising cost of
prescription drugs for everyone in your plan.
The program monitors certain prescription drugs to ensure that you are getting the appropriate drugs for your disease
state. It works much like healthcare plans that approve certain medical procedures before they’re done, to make sure
you’re getting tests you need: If you’re prescribed a certain medication, that drug may need a “prior authorization.” It
makes sure you’re getting a cost-effective drug that works for you.
For instance, prior authorization ensures that
covered drugs are used for treating medical problems rather than for other purposes.
Formulary
When you have a prescription filled, your plan will cover the use of formulary and non formulary products. If you use one of the non-formulary (or non-preferred drugs on the list) it will be covered at a higher copay.
For a copy of the formulary, please call Express Scripts at 1-877-586-3115 or visit express-scripts.com to perform a
coverage check.
