Pros I did enjoy it being easier to complete prior authorizations for medications electronically especially compared to faxing. Cons I did not like how faxes were still sent to us with the authorization key, which means that we still need to flip through the faxes. Review Source SK Sanaa K. Clinic Manager Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Simplifies Prior Authorizations but Has Some Delays" February 7, 2025 4.0 A helpful tool for managing medication approvals, making the process easier, though it’s not always as fast as needed. Pros Streamlines the prior authorization process, reducing paperwork and improving communication between providers and pharmacies. Cons Occasional processing delays and system glitches can slow down approvals. Review Source NZ Nazifa Z. Patient Care Advocate Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great platform with room for improvements" April 1, 2025 3.0 Overall the experience is great. It has made submitting prior authorizations and medical work more efficient and effective but there is room for more emprovements. Pros It helps with submitting prior authorizations so much easier. Customer support is very helpful and can help you when you are stuck. Cons It can be difficult to use it for beginners and needs to be trained. It can sometimes provide misinformation like even if prior authorization was submitted successfully, it stated that it was not submitted. If submitting authorizations has issues, it does not make it clear what the issue is. Too many questions asked which makes it difficult. Review Source AH Abigail H. Clinical Director Mental Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Useful medication Prior Authorization submission platform." August 21, 2023 5.0 A useful platform for medication prior authorization submission that saves time. Pros Cover My Meds is more convenient than calling each individual insurance to submit medication prior authorizations. Cons Cover My Meds is a useful platform, most of the issues I have with it are not with the platform itself.One mild irritation is that if a pharmacy submits and sends you a prior authorization and inputs the provider's information incorrectly, it will update the provider's information to the wrong information on your end as well. It is an easy fix, however, and is due to user error (just not on my end). Review Source Eugene M. Manager Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great platform that needs some.work" October 3, 2018 4.0 Pros Great for keeping track of PAs and sending to patients Cons No formulary data base, formulary Restrictions or process for non formulary alternatives would be very helpful Review Source OE Olivia E. Patient Care Coordinator Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Easy to use when it works" February 7, 2025 3.0 Pros I like that our clinic is able to submit prior authorizations without contacting insurance. Cons There have been multiple instances where a prior authorization has had issues submitting online and we have had to contact patients' insurance providers. Review Source GV Gayle V. RN Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Do Not Use" February 20, 2024 1.0 It used to be very good but I will avoid using this system at all cost. Pros Online is it. There is not else I can really positively comment on Cons Now it is basically everything. Software upgrade is not an upgrade. Current customer service individuals do not know what they are doing. Review Source Larry K. PA-C Medical Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "PA-C" October 5, 2018 1.0 very poor. Pros None, another layer for medical practice to jump through for prior auth's. This program in no way makes it any easier or beneficial to the provider trying to get medications approved. It would be of some use if it gave an alternatively preferred drug that we, as the provider's, could select or like the previous MD noted give the guidelines needed to get the drug we wanted to use approved. This does not improve the process in any way shape or form. Cons as noted above, from a provider stance, this does not improve the prior auth process at all. Review Source Jim H. Pharmacist Pharmaceuticals Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "I only use covermymeds when we have to do a prior authorization for a patient on a medication." September 18, 2017 3.0 Not having to send prior authorizations by hand. Pros The thing I like most about covermymeds is that it sends prior authorization requests automatically. This saves me a lot of time to have to either call or fax a request. Cons The thing I like east about the product is the fact that I can't print a copy of the request sent to the doctor , or at least I can't figure it out. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Pharmacy Technician Retail Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Covermymeds was somewhat a great program to use in a pharmacy setting " June 12, 2018 3.0 It was easy to just type instead of getting put on hold from the doctors office when we needed to get a prior authorization for a patient for their medications Pros What I like about covermymeds is that we can send MD any prior authorizations that require attention from the pharmacy. Cons We still have to input patients information such as insurance and policy number. Sometimes MD update fax number and it takes a long time to process back. Review Source MS Melinda S. Office Manager Mental Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Cover my meds" June 15, 2021 4.0 Our office likes the convivence of use, but could be tweaked for easier use. Pros Fairly easy to use, you dont have to talk with anyone, or be on a delayed hold, all you do is fill out the form and send. Turn around is normally quick but it depends on the insurance carrier. Cons Depending on the insurance carrier, it can sometimes be difficult to find the forms on line while trying to obtain a prior auth. Review Source JR Jessica R. Office Manager Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Obtain Medication Authorization Quickly" February 13, 2020 5.0 This software is well known at our office and used regularly as our preferred method of medication prior authorization. Pros The process to obtain medication approval is fairly simple and does not take too much of our precious time. Cons We do not always receive notifications for these prior authorizations through our EHR software which means we are relying on our faxes to make it through. It would be great to see these come through our EHR only but this could be the pharmacy’s preference. Review Source dE danielle E. Registered Nurse Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Awesome!" December 6, 2018 5.0 Has been a game changer, so much time freed up not waiting on hold and faster response which makes patients happy! Pros No more waiting on hold for 30 or 40 minutes to get authorizations!!! So easy to use once you get set up, which is also easy. I love this program!! Cons I like everything! Only question is how to delete patients from the dashboard after approval, but I'm sure that's an easy fix. Review Source BM Bill M. Physician Assistant Medical Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Prior Authorization Made Easy" September 20, 2019 5.0 Pros The easy and speed of initiating and completing a prior authorization. Also, the ability to get a real time decision on the prior auth. It saves your information and auto populates it. Cons Occasionally it will become hung up when waiting for a response/decision and you will have to log out and log back in. Review Source TS Tamara S. MD Medical Practice Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "operator dependent? " December 16, 2018 2.0 1) there s a tendencey for pharmacists to just start a prior auth when the insurance will pay for a perfectly good alternative medication - so a lot of needless and time consuming requests are sent in so only one in 20 requests are actually usefull 2) very hard to get on - something about the password system does not work so each time we need a new and different passwords -and need to call customer service yet again 3) I finally asked them to stop sending requests - my staff can use it if they want but for me it is mostly just a waste of time Pros sometimes it works customer service people seem ok though sometimes innefectual occasionally we dsid get a prior auth done this way! Cons not able to get on the site reliably and they did nto stop sending e mails until I really insisted several times Review Source MA Michael A. Physician Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Another middleman and doing it poorly" March 1, 2022 1.0 Horrible. Pros Nothing. It’s potentially dangerous causing major delays in my pstients getting their medication Cons Just adds another layer of paperwork. Doesn’t work well causes major delays for my patients Review Source JT Jordan T. Pharmacist Pharmaceuticals Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great PA Solution" January 9, 2017 5.0 We've used CoverMyMeds for the past year or so, and it is so easy. They send you an email if you have a fax that fails and for every PA action that occurs (confirmation/approval, denials, archives, etc.) It is a free solution that every pharmacy should be using. I'd highly recommend it. Pros Ease of use, automatic faxing to physicians Cons Sometimes have to manually archive/delete items Review Source Reneisha H. Clinical Programs Manager Medical Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Useful Platform for ePAs" May 7, 2026 4.0 Overall, my experience with CoverMyMeds has been positive in a fast-paced healthcare environment. It has helped improve organization and visibility for prior authorizations compared to older manual workflows. The platform is especially useful for managing high volumes of prescription requests and communicating with pharmacies and insurance plans more efficiently. While insurance-related delays are sometimes unavoidable, CoverMyMeds helps simplify a process that would otherwise be much more time-consuming for clinic staff and patients. Pros CoverMyMeds helps streamline the prior authorization process compared to traditional phone and fax methods. It is helpful being able to submit electronic prior authorizations, track request statuses, and communicate with insurance plans within one platform. In a busy internal medicine clinic setting, it helps reduce some of the administrative burden related to medication approvals and refill requests. The platform is generally user friendly and integrates well into daily workflows for staff handling prescriptions and patient follow-up. Cons One downside is that approval turnaround times still heavily depend on the insurance company, so delays can happen even when everything is submitted correctly. Some requests may require additional clinical documentation or duplicate submissions depending on the payer. There can also be occasional issues with status updates not reflecting in real time, which may lead to extra follow-up from clinic staff. Review Source JA Jeffrey A. physician Medical Practice Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Cover my meds should be "not cover my meds"" March 25, 2026 3.0 Generally horrible. We have to hire extra staff for the administrative burden. The questions generated are irrelevant. For example, they ask several times for medications "Is this a narcotic" when they already know it is not. Why are they wasting clinician time? Pros nothing, stands in the way of getting medicine covered. I really fundamentally do not like anything about CoverMyMeds at all. Cons Asks too many irrelevant and repetitive questions. Often provides minor, random and capricious reasons for unnecessary denials of medications for patients. Creates unnecessary bureaucratic burden for providers. Essentially prevents numerous patients from getting not just more pricey medications; but often simple refills or very basic generic medications. Does not integrate well with our EMR. Yet another "middle man" between patients, their physicians and pharmacies that provides NO VALUE. Does not do anything to improve health care quality or outcomes Review Source UN Uyen-Vy N. Pharmacist Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good program, but can potentially integrate better with McKesson" May 1, 2025 5.0 We have had a decent experience. I personally like the older format because it was easier to use. Pros I like how easy it is to send prior authorization forms to providers Cons While it does integrate to some extent with McKesson Enterprise pharmacy system in terms of sending prior authorizations, I wished it was more functional where we can just access all prior authorization histories from McKesson instead of having to log in separately. Review Source RK Ronald K. Physicia Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "If you have time to throw away.." October 7, 2025 1.0 Terrible. I waste so much time on it. It needs to be worked on by someone with experience, knowledge and training in how to design a web site. Pros You only log in once a day. Where there is a person, they can find out why the application isn't working. Cons The Chat is worthless. It's slow, doesn't answer questions, defers to a person who isn't there. The system is malfunctioning easily 50% of the time. It gives instructions to go to parts of the website that aren't there. it's archival system is primitive and they give forced choices that are not adequate. It repeats questions it has asked. it asks for research studies to back a statement. The size of upload files allowed is small in light of the requests it makes Review Source Frank P. Office Manager Mental Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Very smooth, and free for medical providers." August 15, 2022 5.0 Very, very satisficed. Pros This platform is the premier go-to choice for pharmacy prior authorizations. Medical providers (e.g. physician offices) can use it at no charge. Filling out a form is takes far less time than waiting on hold to speak with someone from the insurance company on the phone, who will wind up asking the same questions or filling out the same form. The system can often get a response instantly, or within minutes. Cons Some insurance companies (e.g. Georgia Medicaid) are not yet integrated with covermymeds. This is not really shortcoming for covermymeds, though. Some insurance companies need to take the initiative to become integrated. Review Source JK Jenna K. Authorization Specialist Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Web Portal is useless now" February 1, 2024 1.0 Not worth the headache, call your requests in Pros This used to be one of the best platforms to submit authorizations on, now it is useless and you are not able to complete the process Cons We are no longer able to complete our requests on this platform. Every single request comes back with various errors and provider support has no answers Review Source Kit Yue W. Psychiatrist Mental Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great product but needs updating" December 9, 2019 4.0 Pros It is a free product that helps physicians manage the ever-increasing number of inane medication prior authorizations. Cons In Massachusetts we are now having to use a Standardized State Form for many of the insurances, and CoverMyMeds has not updated their software to make this form available. Although it shows up as the correct form, when you click on it, you get one associated with the pharmacy-benefits manager, which is the one from last year. I have chatted twice with their help desk, with no update to the website. Review Source JC John C. Nurse Practitioner Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Easy to use, efficient, almost does the PA for you!" May 28, 2022 5.0 Overall, nothing but good experiences using this platform. 10/10 rating and will always use it. Pros What I like most is how quick CoverMyMeds is to alert you that an Rx needs a PA, the ease of filling out the PA and the response time (within minutes!) Cons There is truly nothing bad I have to say about cover my meds. It has never not worked for me Reason for choosing CoverMyMeds Platform I used it at a prior practice.
