HEMLIBRA Coverage
Benefits Investigations
HEMLIBRA Access Solutions can conduct a benefits investigation (BI) to help you determine if a Genentech medicine is covered, if prior authorizations (PAs) are required, which specialty pharmacy (SP) the health insurance plan prefers and if patient assistance might be needed.
Potential outcomes of a BI:
- Treatment is covered
- PA is required
- Treatment is denied
A BI may be initiated once the SMN and PAN are submitted to HEMLIBRA Access Solutions.
These can be downloaded from Forms and Documents or submitted online via My Patient Solutions.
The completion and submission of coverage- or reimbursement-related
documentation are the responsibility of the patient and health care
provider. Genentech makes no representation or guarantee concerning
coverage or reimbursement for any service or item.
Prior Authorization
HEMLIBRA Access Solutions can help you identify if a prior authorization (PA) is necessary and offer resources as you obtain it for your patient. PA support may be provided once the SMN and PAN are submitted to HEMLIBRA Access Solutions.
If your patient’s request for a PA is not granted, your Field Reimbursement Manager (FRM) or HEMLIBRA Access Solutions Case Manager can work with you to determine your next steps. You can find more tips like this in Forms and Documents.
