DRUG PRIOR AUTHORIZATION LIST
This list does not apply to members of ConnectiCare Exchange Plans and
most ConnectiCare® SOLO Plans using the Freedom Drug List.
In an effort to promote the appropriate use of certain drugs and to help better manage the cost of expensive
drugs, the ConnectiCare Pharmacy & Therapeutics Committee has developed a list of prescription drugs that
require prior authorization. Prior authorization requests must be faxed to ConnectiCare’s Pharmacy Services
department at 860-674-2851 or toll-free at 800-249-1367 by the prescribing physician’s office. POS members
receiving out-of-network care are responsible for initiating this process. When submitting a request for Prior
Authorization, please use a Prior Authorization form which can be obtained from ConnectiCare.com or by
calling ConnectiCare at 800-251-7722. If the prescribed drug is approved, the prescription will be filled as usual
at a participating pharmacy or administered by a provider (where appropriate).
Note: Self-administered medications (i.e. interferons), even those not on this list, may not be dispensed for self
administration and billed through the medical benefit by a provider. They must be dispensed through a
participating pharmacy.
(*) prior authorization is not required within the first 90 days of membership with ConnectiCare.
(M) physician-administered drug, usually billed under the medical benefit.
The information in this document does not apply to members with ConnectiCare VIP Medicare Plans,
ConnectiCare Exchange Plans and most of ConnectiCare® SOLO Plans.
To find a drug, click on a letter and browse the table alphabetically.
