*** *** is a member. This letter is in response to the correspondence we received from your office on December 2, 2015. Thank you for the opportunity to address *** *** concerns as expressed in Complaint ID ***. Upon reviewing this concern, we verified that the plan requires prior authorization for the medication in question. The previous prior authorization was valid from July 7, thru October 7, 2015. They are only approved three months at a time. Our Specialty Guideline Management made three attempts to obtain the required documentation to complete the prior authorization process from the prescriber without success. This caused for the initial order to be cancelled. In efforts of resolve this issue, we contacted the prescriber again. Based on information provided, the prior authorization was denied. An appeal was then initiated and the medication was approved to allow continuous coverage thru December 31, 2015. Per the specialty pharmacy, the medication is no longer needed but the approval has been entered to allow the out of pocket claim to be approved as well. We have contacted the *** *** ***y that filled your prescription locally and asked them to reprocess the claim. The total that should be paid is $30.00. *** *** will need to take the receipt and method of payment used to the pharmacy to obtain a refund.

When I spoke to *** last Friday, I was in agreement of her calling back this week but not to have a follin hours was not what I expected. They should have resolved this matter by now since it is extremely clear the package was never delivered to us. This matter is between the Post Office and CVS and my mother's funds should not be delayed any further. This is not acceptable.Regards,
