To help you understand how Protopic may be covered by your patient’s insurance plan, Astellas Reimbursement Services (ARS) can research the patient’s coverage before treatment is started to minimize any potential disruption in their course of therapy.
ARS benefit verifications support improved patient care in the following ways:
- Research your patient’s coverage profile including prior authorization requirements or other coverage restrictions
- Investigate your patient’s cost-sharing responsibilities including the deductible, co-insurance/co-payment, out-of-pocket maximum, and benefit cap
- Outline next steps for accessing Protopic including coding, claim submission requirements, and pharmacy options
- Counsel healthcare providers by offering assistance with the appeals or grievance process
- Evaluate eligibility for, and refer the patient to, the Astellas Access ProgramSM (AAP) to help ensure that the patient will be able to start or continue their Protopic therapy
