What if a medication I’m already taking is not “preferred” on the Drug List?
Humana will cover a one-time, temporary supply of your current drug. After that: • If the Drug List includes other drugs that treat the same condition, Humana requires you to try those drugs before we cover the drug you already take. For example, if Drug A and Drug B both treat your medical condition, Humana may not cover drug B unless you try Drug A first. If Drug A does not work for you, Humana will cover Drug B. This process is called “Step Therapy.” • If no other options are available on the Drug List, your doctor must obtain approval from Humana before we cover the prescription. This process is called “Prior Authorization.
