For Pharmacy Services
To better serve our providers, business partners, and patients, the Cigna HealthcareSM Coverage Review Department is transitioning from PromptPA, fax, and phone coverage reviews (also called prior authorizations) to Electronic Prior Authorizations (ePAs). ePAs save time and help patients receive their medications faster.
