How to submit prior authorization requests for drugs managed by AIM when the drugs are prescribed for non‑oncology diagnoses

AIM Specialty Health^® manages authorizations for medical oncology drugs for most members. They don’t manage those drugs when prescribed for non-oncology diagnoses.

When prescribing these drugs for non-oncology diagnoses, don’t submit the prior authorization to AIM. Instead:

• For Blue Cross fully insured commercial members and UAW Retiree Medical Benefits Trust members with Blue Cross non-Medicare plans: Fax all clinical documentation to the Blue Cross Pharmacy Help Desk at 1-866-915-9187.

Note: This requirement doesn’t apply to the UAW Retiree Health Care Trust (group number 70605) or the UAW International Union (group number 71714).

• For BCN commercial members: Fax all clinical documentation to the Blue Cross Pharmacy Help Desk at 1-877-402-7695.
• For Medicare Plus Blue℠ and BCN Advantage℠ members: Call the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan and Blue Care Network Pharmacy Clinical Help Desk at
  1-800-437-3803.

To determine which drugs this applies to, see the following drug lists:

• Medical oncology prior authorization list for Blue Cross commercial fully insured and BCN commercial members
• Medical oncology prior authorization list for UAW Retiree Medical Benefits Trust PPO non-Medicare members
• Medical Drug and Step Therapy Prior Authorization List for Medicare Plus Blue and BCN Advantage members

We’re updating these drug lists and other documents to reflect this requirement.
