PLAN
INFORMACIÓN
As a member, you can ask Express Scripts Medicare to make an exception to our Medicare Part D coverage rules. Hay varios tipos de excepciones que puede solicitarnos.
Generally, this plan will only approve your request for an exception if the alternative drugs or covered quantities included on the plan's formulary would not be as effective in treating your condition and/or would cause you to have adverse medical effects.
Debe comunicarse con nosotros para solicitarnos que tomemos una decisión inicial de cobertura relativa a una excepción al vademécum, a las categorías o a las restricciones de utilización. Para solicitar una excepción al vademécum, a las categorías o a las restricciones de utilización, debe enviar una declaración en la que su médico avale su solicitud. Por lo general, debemos tomar una decisión en un lapso de 72 horas desde su solicitud.
If you would like to request a Medicare Part D coverage determination (such as an exception to the rules or restrictions on our plan's coverage of a drug) or if you would like to make an appeal for us to reconsider a coverage decision, you may contact us as indicated in the table below.

Express Scripts Medicare proceso de transición:
As a new or continuing member in our Medicare Part D plan, you may be taking drugs that are not on our formulary. O bien, puede estar tomando medicamentos que sí se encuentren en nuestro vademécum, cuando su capacidad para obtenerlos es limitada. You should talk to your doctor to decide if you should switch to an appropriate drug that we cover or request a formulary exception for us to cover the drug you take. For each of your drugs that is not on our formulary, or if your ability to get your drugs is limited, we will cover a temporary supply of a maximum 30-day supply at retail (unless you have a prescription written for fewer days) when you go to a network pharmacy within the first 90 days of the calendar year (or the first 90 days of your effective date if your coverage begins after the first of the year). After your first 30-day supply, we will not pay for these drugs unless your request for an exception is approved. For additional information on our transition policy or if you are a resident of a long-term care facility, please refer to the plan's Medicare Part D Evidence of Coverage.
