What is a Prior Authorization?
Certain medical services and supplies require approval before they will be covered by your plan. Prior authorization, also called prior approval or preauthorization, is the process where a qualified health care professional reviews and determines if a service is medically necessary. Your Summary of Benefits indicates which services, supplies or medications require prior authorization. All prior authorization requests are coordinated through your doctor’s office. Your doctor must ask for and receive approval before you receive certain care. Priority Partners will review the service, drug or equipment for medical necessity. If prior authorization is not given, then coverage for care, services or supplies may be limited or denied. Any costs for denied services that were the result of an in-network provider failing to receive prior authorization are not your responsibility. For more information on prior authorization guidelines through your Priority Partners plan, refer to your Priority Partners Member Handbook.
What is a Referral?
A referral is a written order from your primary care doctor (PCP) giving you permission to see a specialist or receive certain medical services. Before you can see a specialist and be covered for that care, you will need a referral from your PCP. For information on getting a referral for care, refer to your Priority Partners Member Handbook.
How do I find out more information about medication prior authorization?
Some medications require prior authorization from your plan before they can be dispensed by your pharmacy. This helps us ensure that your prescriptions are medically necessary. To determine if a medication requires prior authorization, look at the Pharmacy Formulary. Medications that require prior authorization are listed in the formulary as “PA.”. Your doctor can request these medications by submitting a prior authorization request. Information about covered medications, medication prior authorization requirements and pharmacy plan benefits are available here.
If I pay the full price for a prescription, will Priority Partners reimburse me?
Yes, as long as the prescription is on the list of medications covered by Priority Partners. Within two weeks of purchase of the prescription, you may be eligible for reimbursement at the retail pharmacy. You may also submit your prescription receipts for reimbursement within 180 days of the date of service. For additional information, call Priority Partners Customer Service at 800-654-9728.
When do I call Priority Partners Customer Service?
Call Priority Partners any time you have a question or need help with your health care. Some examples of when to call are: to change your primary care doctor, to add a newborn and mom on the baby’s date of birth, to verify enrollment eligibility, or to get a new ID card.
Finding Care
How do I search for a provider?
Click “Search a Provider” in the left column under Quick Links or, under the My Health Plans tab in the top navigation bar.
Why aren’t there any results when I search for a provider?
First, make sure you are spelling the provider’s name correctly. If you are not sure of the spelling, type in the first three letters and a list of all doctors with a last name starting with those letters will be displayed. You can then browse the list manually. Your search may also be too narrow, meaning there are no providers with your selected criteria within your network. Broaden your search by typing “%%” in a field or leaving it blank. This will generate all providers within those fields. Your search may also be too broad, meaning there are far too many providers with your criteria for a list to be generated. You can narrow your search by selecting an option in a field. A list will find and display only those doctors that fit your criteria.
How do I change my doctor?
You can change your primary care doctor (PCP) by logging into your member portal. You can also call Priority Partners at 800-654-9728.

Do I need to contact Priority Partners before going to the emergency room?

However, if you have a problem after normal business hours that is not a medical emergency, you can receive services at an urgent care center. Directions on how to find a center are provided in the “Where can I find an urgent care center?” question below.
What is a Site of Service?
Site of service is a term used to indicate the facility in which you receive care. Many surgical procedures can be performed safely in an outpatient hospital setting, such as an ambulatory surgery center (ASC). Certain procedures require prior authorization when performed in an outpatient hospital setting. For information on covered outpatient services, refer to your Priority Partners Member Handbook.
Where can I find an urgent care center?

Members can only use transportation services for these eligible medical appointments:
- Confirmed, same-day urgent care visits with a primary care doctor
- Visits to a specialist more than 30 miles away if there is not a provider close to your home

There are no limits on the number or frequency of rides, as long as they are for medical appointments and meet all qualifications.
Can someone accompany me for rides, such as a caretaker or family member?
Of course. Members are welcome to have someone ride with them. In some cases, children are permitted to accompany you. However, the number of children is limited to seat availability, and members who bring children must have appropriate booster seats.
How do I request transportation service?

Do I need prior authorization to qualify for transportation services?
No prior authorization from your health care provider is needed. When you call for transportation services, a Priority Partners representative will ask a few questions to see if you qualify for services. Your doctor may also reach out to Priority Partners to request transportation services for you, although no referral is necessary.
What other transportation options do I have?
Members who need transportation services should first consider these questions:
- What have I done in the past to get to my medical appointments?
- Have I contacted my local health department to ask about transportation services?
- Is there someone in my household who can give me a ride?
- Do I have friends or family members outside of my household who can take me?
- What have you done to explore other options for transportation when it was needed?
Members who have explored these options and also meet the eligibility requirements can request transportation services through Priority Partners at 800-654-9728. Members may find additional transportation services help at 211md.org or findhelp.org.
Vaccine Information
What is a vaccine or immunization?
A vaccine is a type of medicine that is usually given to you as a shot with a needle. The medicine in the shot protects your body from one or more diseases. When you get this medicine, your body learns how to fight the disease so that you will not get sick from it. This is called “immunization.”
Is there an age restriction for vaccines?
Your doctor can determine if you should receive a vaccine based on CDC recommended guidelines.
Why does my child need vaccinations?
Vaccines help the people who get them because they prevent them from getting diseases or infections that could make them sick or even kill them. They also help the vulnerable, unvaccinated people around them because it reduces the spreading of diseases and infection if most people are vaccinated and are not contracting them in the first place.
Are vaccines safe?
Yes. Vaccines are very safe. If any side effects occur from vaccinations, they are very minor, such as soreness where you received the shot, fussiness; or a low-grade fever. Serious side effects, like allergic reactions, are very rare, and doctors are trained to treat them.
My child doesn’t like shots. Is there another way to get vaccinated?
Some vaccines can be taken by mouth or sprayed into your nose. Talk to your doctor to see whether this is an option. Most of the time, you will need to have the shot with a needle. It may sting for a moment and be a little sore, but it is much better than taking the risk of getting sick. Putting a cool, wet wash cloth where you got your shot can help make it feel better.
Why do we get the same shot more than once?
Some vaccines take more than one dose to give you full protection. Other vaccines stop working after a while, so you need to get them again. Make sure that you get every dose of all of your vaccines. This is the only way to make sure that you are protected from the disease.
Why do vaccinations start so early?
Babies and young children need to be vaccinated because they are more at risk for diseases. These diseases can also be much more serious for infants and young children.
How do I know which vaccines my child needs?
Talk to your child’s doctor about what vaccines they need. You can also look at these charts that tell you what vaccines your child needs based on how old they are.
Where can I get a flu shot?
Priority Partners members can receive a flu shot at their primary doctor’s office or at one of many flu network pharmacies, including CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, Rite Aid, and more. Find a nearby pharmacy.
Can the flu shot give me the flu?
No, the flu shot cannot cause flu illness. The viruses contained in flu shots are inactivated (killed), which means they cannot cause infection.
Are there different types of flu shots?
There are different types of flu shots, and the CDC recommends you receive whatever is available at your pharmacy or doctor’s office. However, the CDC does not recommend the intranasal flu vaccine, FluMist.
How much does it cost?
You will not be reimbursed for flu vaccines paid out of pocket. Please make sure to go to one of our vaccine network flu pharmacies where your flu vaccine will be free!
Find a pharmacy in our vaccine network where you can get the flu vaccine.
Which brands of the flu vaccine are covered at network flu vaccine pharmacies?
All standard Trivalent and Quadrivalent available brands of the flu vaccine, including FluMist (nasal spray), are covered at network flu vaccine pharmacies. Please be advised that FluMist is not recommended by the CDC.
Fluzone intradermal, sort needle vaccine, and the Fluzone High Dose formulations are not covered at the retail pharmacy.
If you have questions about the flu, read more about it at www.cdc.gov/flu.
What other vaccines can I get at the pharmacy instead of my PCP’s office?
Shingrix is a vaccine against the Herpes Zoster that can be administered by your doctor or your pharmacist at a vaccine network pharmacy. A prescription is needed when you obtain the vaccine from a pharmacy.
Adult pneumococcal vaccine, for pneumonia prevention, can be administered by your doctor or your pharmacist at a vaccine network pharmacy. A prescription is needed when you obtain the vaccine from a pharmacy.
Members may obtain vaccines from a network provider or below vaccines from a network pharmacy. The list below identifies vaccines available at a vaccine network pharmacy at no cost.
Vaccine | Use | Copay when administered at a Vaccine Network Pharmacy | Recommended Age |
---|---|---|---|
Flu Vaccine | Flu prevention | $0 | Age 19 and over |
Shingrix | Shingles prevention | $0 | Age 50 and over |
Adult Pneumococcal | Pneumonia prevention | $0 | Age 19 and over |
Asthma Medication
Is the asthma medication prescribed to my child safe?
Yes, asthma medicines are safe when given by your child’s doctor. Be sure to follow the directions from your doctor and pharmacist. Do not give your child extra medicine or inhaler puffs unless your child’s doctor tells you to.
Are steroid inhalers safe?
Steroid inhalers are different than the muscle-building steroids sometimes abused by athletes. This medicine is breathed in, so it only goes to the lungs. There may be a slight slowing of growth for children by using a steroid inhaler, but this is rare. The benefit of your child breathing better is worth it for most parents.
How do I pay for it?
You do not need to pay for this medicine. It is covered through your child’s Priority Partners benefits. There is no copay for pregnant adults or children under the age of 21.
How can I get a ride to my child’s doctor?
If you do not have a way to get to your child’s doctor, Priority Partners can help you get a ride. Please call 888-500-8786 for information.
How do I remember to fill the prescription each month?
Talk to your pharmacy about getting reminders. Most pharmacies will send refill reminders to you by call, text, or email when it is time to get a refill.
Does my child need to take their asthma medication?
Yes, your child needs to take their asthma medicine as long as their doctor tells them to. Do not stop taking the medicine without first talking to your child’s doctor. Your child may not have any asthma symptoms, but the medicine helps to keep it that way.
I lost the prescription for my child’s asthma medication. What do I do?
Call your child’s doctor to get a new prescription. Sometimes, they can send the prescription to your pharmacy, or they may want to see your child in the office if they haven’t had a visit recently.
What else can I do to help my child breathe easier?
Avoid things that worsen your child’s asthma. Things that can make asthma worse are called triggers. Triggers can be dust, mold, animal fur and saliva, pollens and grasses, smoke, or perfumes. Your child should not avoid exercise. Exercise is important for your child’s health.
How can I obtain a nebulizer?
