Information
Medical Specialty Drug Policies: A-C

Precertification is required for designated new-to market specialty drugs. Precertification of the drug will be required on the market launch date of the drug. For details, please refer to Specialty Drugs Requiring Precertification.


Existing Policies

HMSA medical policies rely on the use of evidence-based medicine, which typically comes from peer-reviewed literature. Physicians submitting comments should include citation source material to support their positions. Inclusion of this material will help HMSA's pharmacy benefit manager and HMSA's medical directors evaluate the comment or proposed change.
 

Physicians may contact HMSA's pharmacy benefit manager by email to HMSAPAReview@caremark.com or by fax at 1-866-237-5512 for questions/comments.
