*The information provided here is intended for informational purposes only and is not a comprehensive description of potential coding requirements for the Pfizer Oncology product. Coding and coverage policies change periodically and often without warning. The healthcare professional is solely responsible for determining coverage and reimbursement parameters and accurate and appropriate coding for treatment of his/her own patients. The information provided in this section should not be considered a guarantee of coverage or reimbursement.
The sample form is intended as a reference for billing and coding of the Pfizer Oncology product. This form is not intended to be directive or to replace clinical decision-making, and the use of the recommended codes does not guarantee reimbursement. Healthcare professionals may deem other codes or policies more appropriate and should select the coding options that most accurately reflect their internal guidelines, payer requirements, practice requirements, practice patients, and the services rendered.
We’ll coordinate with a patient’s insurer to determine the PA requirements, where and how to submit requests, and typical turnaround times. After your office submits a PA request, we’ll follow up with the insurer on behalf of the patient to track the progress and status, upon your request.
Patient Access Navigators may be able to help address specific access issues—in person or over the phone. They can help provide education about access and reimbursement resources and can help address Pfizer Oncology patient cases you have sent to Pfizer Oncology Together.
