Policy Summary
Coverage for certain high-risk or high-cost medications, particularly controlled substances, requires prior authorization to ensure effectiveness and safety. Patients must obtain approval from Humana before filling prescriptions, or they may face out-of-pocket costs for medications without prior authorization. Key limitations include the potential denial of coverage based on safety concerns, alternative treatment availability, or specific therapeutic criteria.
