why does nobody talk about Canada
why does nobody talk about Canada — that is what I am asking, and I have already read the wiki twice.
Formulary criteria are revised, and plan renewal is a natural point at which a previously refused request may succeed without anything about the applicant changing.
Nothing here is medical or legal advice. The pharmacist and the prescriber are the people who can act, and both are faster than a forum.
Read the special authorization criteria and wrote the application against them line by line. Approved first time after a previous refusal.
Research-use-only material is not approved for human use and nothing here should be read as a recommendation to use it.
best — the order this archive was captured in
Quantity limits restrict how much may be dispensed in a period even where coverage exists. They are a distinct barrier and require a distinct request.
Not convinced. A rejected claim at the counter is not a denied authorization and the next step differs.
Not convinced.
Adding the fastest step — ask the pharmacist. They can usually check in minutes.
the same product can be covered in one province and not the next
Quantity limits restrict how much may be dispensed in a period even where coverage exists.
Agreed — write the application against the published criteria rather than around them.

the exception drug status route exists in several provinces
The pharmacist sorted in five minutes what the phone line had not managed in a fortnight.
Has your plan renewed since the last time you applied?
Agreed on keeping every form and date. When something goes wrong the paper trail is the whole case.
National regulatory approval establishes that a product may be sold. Whether any plan pays for it is a separate decision, and public drug plans are administered provincially.
Pharmacy staff name removed. The pharmacy can stay in a pricing post.
Cosigning on quantity limits. They stop as many people as outright denials do and get discussed far less.
Kept every form and reference number. When they had no record of a submission, I did.
ask the pharmacy what the cash price is, it varies
I would not read one pharmacy’s cash price as the going rate. The spread is real.
