Coverage determination is the process by which Jefferson Health Plans decides whether a Part D drug prescribed for you is covered. It also decides the amount, if any, you are required to pay. An initial coverage decision about your Part D drugs is called a coverage determination.

About Coverage Determinations

You can ask Jefferson Health Plans for a coverage determination if the following apply:

  • You need a drug that we don’t cover or need us to waive a rule or restriction we have on a drug in our formulary. Learn more about exceptions.
  • You want us to cover a drug on our formulary and you believe you meet any rules or restrictions we have for this drug.
  • You want us to pay you back for a drug you already got and paid for.

You, your prescriber or an authorized representative can make a request for a coverage determination or exception, and for exceptions, we also need a statement from your prescriber supporting your request.
