1 Drugs That Require Step Therapy (ST) In some cases, HealthNow New York Inc. requires you to first try certain drugs to treat your medical condition before we will cover another drug for that condition. For example, if Step-1 and Step-2 drugs both treat your medical condition, we may not cover the Step-2 drug unless you try the Step-1 drug first. If the Step-1 drug does not work for you, we will then cover the Step-2 drug. You will need authorization from HealthNow New York Inc. before filling prescriptions for the Step-2 drugs shown in the chart below. HealthNow New York Inc. will only provide coverage after it determines that the drug is being prescribed according to the criteria specified in the chart. You, your appointed representative, or your prescriber can request a review by calling Member Services at (TTY only, call 711). We are open October 1 - February 14 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., 7 days a week and February 15 -September 30 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday - Friday. Calls to these numbers are free.
