Prior Authorization List
The physicians and pharmacists who serve on the Pharmacy & Therapeutics (P&T) Committee are
responsible for reviewing all new medications as they come to market. With each agent, they consider
whether a medication should be covered under the prescription benefit. In addition, they may recommend
quantity limits and prior authorization to ensure appropriate use.
When making a recommendation, the P&T Committee focuses on the medication's overall health benefit
as well as the cost. The P&T Committee will consider FDA recommendations, manufacturer package labeling
instructions, and published clinical recommendations, such as the Journal of the American Medical Association
(JAMA). The P&T has elected to prior authorize the following products:

Last Updated: Thursday, July 01, 2010
As of October 31, 2006, Innoviant's general prior authorization form was removed from our Web site in
favor of customized forms for specific prior authorization programs. To initiate a prior authorization,
please call the number on the back of your ID card. We're available to help 24-hours a day, seven days
a week.
A customer service representative can fax a prior authorization form to the prescribing physician. When
the physician returns the completed form, a clinical review of the documented information is completed
within two business days. The clinical decision is documented in writing to the physician. A copy of
the letter provided to the physician is also provided to the member.
