A prior authorization (PA), sometimes referred to as a “pre-authorization,” is a requirement from your health insurance company that your doctor obtain approval from your plan before it will cover the costs of a specific medicine, medical device or procedure.

Once approved, the prior authorization lasts for a defined timeframe. You may be able to speed up a prior authorization by filing an urgent request. If you can't wait for approval, you may be able to pay upfront at your pharmacy and submit a reimbursement claim after approval.

Your doctor can initiate the prior authorization process by calling Express Scripts toll-free at 800‑417‑8164 or by fax at 800‑357‑9577. If you plan to fill your prescription at a retail pharmacy, consider completing the prior authorization with your doctor before you go to the pharmacy.
