What it does
Existing federal law requires a group health plan and a health insurance issuer offering group or individual health insurance coverage to provide for a coverage appeals process, which includes both an internal review and an external review process, that applies if an enrollee receives an adverse benefit determination for a drug that is included on the health plan's formulary drug list.
