Pour un médicament non encore listé, une demande motivée est soumise au pharmacien, qui engage une procédure. Sur le net : "step-edit is an electronic (PA) process", where PA stands for "Prior-Authorization" --- D'où 'step-edit' = Electronic Prior-Authorization Process. Voir à 'step-edit medication', 'Prior-Authorization', etc. |

EXPLANATION OF TERMS IN YOUR FORMULARY
You will see these words next to some drug names:
Pharmacy Exception (PE) - a drug that requires prior approval before the Plan will cover it, and when the patient meets the established criteria. The doctor must submit a Pharmacy Exception Form. The doctor can submit the request by fax, phone, or regular mail.
Step Edit (ST) - a drug that requires a prescription history of specific drugs in the pharmacy claims or data system, and these specific drugs must be taken during a given time frame. After the specific drugs have been taken within the given time frame, online coverage of the newly-prescribed drug occurs at the pharmacy. Step Edits make it easier to access drugs that would normally require a Pharmacy Exception.
Specialty Edit (SP) - a drug that requires the first prescription to be written by a specialist. The specialist does not have to submit a Pharmacy Exception. Online coverage of the drug occurs at the pharmacy.
Medical Exception - a drug that is not on the Plan's formulary. Non-formulary drugs require an Exception to the formulary due to the patient's allergy, Patient has adverse reactions to all formulary drugs
