Medicamentos y farmacias especializados

Los medicamentos especializados son medicamentos con receta que requieren un manejo, administración o monitoreo especial. These medications treat complex chronic conditions and are only available from a specialty pharmacy. Health Partners Plans works with a network of specialty pharmacies to coordinate the delivery of specialty medications for our members.

For more information about specialty medications and pharmacies, please call Member Relations at 1-800-553-0784 (TTY 1-877-454-8477).

Autorizaciones previas

Algunos servicios, medicamentos o artículos necesitan aprobación de Health Partners antes de que usted pueda recibirlos. Este proceso de aprobación se llama autorización previa. A las “autorizaciones previas” a veces se las denomina “preautorizaciones” o “precertificaciones” o “preaprobaciones”; todas estas denominaciones significan lo mismo.
