Coverage and prior authorization
Brand glaucoma and dry-eye drops often need a prior authorization or step therapy. Plans also limit how soon you can refill a bottle, which can be a problem if drops run out early. We check what your plan allows, tell your eye doctor’s office what the plan needs, and follow it through for you. For post-surgery drops, ask your surgeon to send prescriptions before your procedure so there’s time to sort out any coverage issue.
Questions
My glaucoma drops run out before my plan lets me refill. What can I do?
Tell us. We’ll check your plan’s refill rules and, when needed, contact your eye doctor’s office about the prescribed quantity or a refill override.
Can you help me understand my post-cataract drop schedule?
Yes. Our pharmacists can go over which drop to use when, how long to wait between them and how the schedule tapers, based on your surgeon’s instructions.
