HealthChoice Medicare Supplement Plans With Part D
Transition Supply of Medication 

A transition supply of medication is a temporary, 34-day supply that is made available to provide enough time for you to make a transition to a drug that is listed in the HealthChoice Medicare Formulary or to request a prior authorization. This one-time supply is available when:

• You enroll in a Medicare supplement plan
• Your physician writes a new prescription for a drug that is non-formulary
• Your newly prescribed medication requires a prior authorization or has quantity limits
• Your medication is no longer covered
• You enter or leave a hospital or other setting such as a long-term care facility

Other situations may qualify for a transition supply, and under some circumstances, this 34-day supply can be extended. In rare instances, such as when a medication is excluded or when a medication is covered under Part B, a transition supply is not available.
