Part D Coverage Decisions and Appeals A coverage decision is a decision we make about your benefits and coverage, or about the amount we will pay for your drugs. Here are examples of coverage decisions you may ask us to make about your Part D drugs: Asking us to cover a Part D drug that is not on our list of covered drugs (i.e., the formulary attached) Asking us to waive a restriction on our coverage for a drug (such as limits on the amount of the drug you can receive) Asking to pay a lower cost-sharing amount for a covered, non-preferred drug You ask us whether a drug is covered for you and whether you satisfy any applicable coverage rules. (For example, your drug is on our list of covered drugs, but we require you to get approval from us before we will cover it for you). You ask us to pay for a prescription drug you already bought. This is a request for a coverage decision about payment. If you disagree with a coverage decision we have made, you can appeal our decision. If you would like to file an appeal or request an exception to a recent coverage determination, see your Evidence of Coverage for detailed instructions.
