Request Appeal for Drug Coverage

Who May Make a Request

Your prescriber may ask us for an appeal on your behalf. If you want another individual (such as a family member or friend) to request an appeal for you, that individual must be your representative. Contact Us to learn how to name a representative.

Because we, WellCare, denied your request for coverage of (or payment for) a prescription drug, you have the right to ask us for redetermination (appeal) of our decision. You may ask for a redetermination after the date of our Notice of Action.

A Medication Appeal Request Form (PDF) may be printed and faxed to: 1-866-388-1766.

You may also call us for a coverage determination at 1-888-846-4262 (TTY 711). We’re here for you Monday through Friday, 7:45 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. HST.

Important Notes: Expedited Decision

If you or your prescriber believe that waiting for a standard decision could seriously harm your life, health, or ability to regain maximum function, you can ask for an expedited (fast) decision. If your prescriber indicates that waiting could seriously harm your health, we will automatically give you a decision. If you do not obtain your prescriber's support for an expedited appeal, we will decide if your case requires a fast decision. You cannot request an expedited appeal if you are asking us to pay you back for a drug you already received.

CHECK THIS BOX IF YOU BELIEVE YOU NEED AN EXPEDITED DECISION.
If you have a supporting statement from your prescriber, attach it to this request.

Please explain your reasons for appealing. Enter any additional information you believe may help your case, such as a statement from your prescriber and relevant medical records. You may want to refer to the explanation we provided in the Notice of Action.

Signature of person requesting the appeal (the enrollee, the enrollee's prescriber, or representative) and date are required upon submission.
