2 Member education What are quantity limits? Taking too much medicine or using it too often isn t safe. And it may even drive up your health care costs. That s why this program limits the amount of medicine that s covered by your plan for a certain length of time. For example, a drug may have a limit of 30 pills per 30 days. If you refill a prescription too soon or your doctor prescribes an amount that s higher than usual, your pharmacist will tell you. The drug won t be covered at that time. Your doctor can request we cover the amount of medicine prescribed. If your doctor thinks you have a medical reason to get the larger amount, he or she can request that we cover the drug. Requesting approval is called prior authorization. Here s how it works: First, we ll need to know a little more about your health. Your doctor calls or faxes the information to us. If the information meets your plan s guidelines, the request is approved. Your doctor or pharmacist lets you know the prescription can be filled. If we need more information, we may contact your doctor directly. If the request is denied, you and your doctor will receive a letter explaining how to appeal it.
