Enrollment in Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona Advantage depends on contract renewal. You can ask BCBSAZ Advantage to make an exception to our coverage rules. There are several types of exceptions that you can ask us to make. You can ask us to cover a drug even if it is not on our formulary. If, this drug will be covered at a pre-determined cost-sharing level, and you would not be able to ask us to provide the drug at a lower cost-sharing level. You can ask us to cover a formulary drug at a lower cost-sharing level. For example a drug is covered in 4; you can ask us to cover it at the cost-sharing amount that applies to drugs in 3 instead. This would lower the amount you must pay for your drug. You can ask us to waive coverage restrictions or limits on your drug. For example, for certain drugs, BCBSAZ Advantage limits the amount of the drug that we will cover. If Last :
your drug has a quantity limit, you can ask us to waive the limit and cover a greater amount.
