Did you know...When calculating the units for a drug authorization, Molina requires the waste to be included in the requested authorized units.
Example:
- Pt is receiving 705mg Herceptin, SDV is 150mg HCPC unit 10mg, auth should be for 75 units q 21 days
- Form does not indicate this information is needed. Buy and Bill is available, but also not indicated on the form.
Did you know... Drugs added to the authorization list for DOS after October 1, 2018: C9014, C9015, C9016, C9024, C9028, C9029, J0565, J0604, J0606, J1428, J1555, J1627, J2326, J2350, J 3358, J7210, J7211, J9022, J9023, J9203, J9285, Q2040
