Benefits Investigation
Genentech Access Solutions can conduct a benefits investigation to help determine if a Genentech medicine is covered, if prior authorizations are required, which specialty pharmacy the health insurance plan prefers, and if patient assistance might be needed. The potential outcomes of a benefits investigation are:
Both the Prescriber Service Form and the Patient Consent Form must be received before Genentech Access Solutions can begin helping patients.
Forms can be found by going to genentech-access.com, selecting the prescribed medication, and selecting the “Forms and Documents” option. The forms can be submitted via fax to the number listed on it or online via My Patient Solutions.
Prior Authorization Assistance
Genentech Access Solutions can help identify if a prior authorization is necessary and offer resources as healthcare professionals obtain it for patients. Both the Prescriber Service Form and the Patient Consent Form must be received before Genentech Access Solutions can begin helping patients. If the request for a prior authorization is not granted, a field reimbursement manager or Genentech Access Solutions specialist can work with healthcare professionals to determine next steps.
