system within 30 days of dispense date.
- Pharmacy
Vendor and Point-of-Sale Devices:
- Point-of-sale
claims must be submitted to CBCA Rx through a pharmacy computer
system or point-of-sale device. Please contact your pharmacy
system or point-of-sale software vendor with any questions
about how to submit point-of-sale claims.
- Point-of-sale
claims submitted to CBCA Rx must be transmitted through
a communication network. All claims must be submitted in
NCPDP Version 3.2 (3A) format unless otherwise stipulated
by CBCA Rx.
-
CBCA
Rx will identity whether a claim has been accepted or
rejected. If the claim is accepted, CBCA Rx’s claim processing
system will identify the amount paid and the co-pay to
be collected. Our claim processing system will provide
additional informative messages when possible (e.g., the
quantity allowed is less than submitted). If the claim
is rejected, CBCA Rx’s claim processing system will identify
the reason(s) for the rejection.
-
All
claims received at CBCA Rx by the last business day of
the processing cycle will be processed in the current
payment cycle. Checks will generally be disbursed within
three weeks of processing and will be mailed to the pharmacy
by CBCA Rx.
-
PCN
(Processor Control Number)
When
submitting claims through point-of-sale, the pharmacy
is not required to submit a Processor Control Number.
Your switch may require one.
-
BIN
Number
When
submitting claims through point-of-sale, the pharmacy
is required to submit a BIN number (Bank Identification
Number) to route the claim properly to the CBCA Rx Claim
Processing System. The BIN number for CBCA Rx is 006160.
Your pharmacy service department or software vendor will
need this number to properly submit claims to CBCA Rx.
-
Reversals
If
a claim previously accepted through point-of-sale must
be resubmitted, the pharmacy must first submit a reversal.
A reversal should also be submitted when a member fails
to pick up a filled prescription. There is no time limit
for the submission of reversals.
-
Compounds
CBCA
Rx will be establishing enhanced guidelines for compounding.
Until the credentialing requirements are in place, any
store submitting a claim for compounds will be remunerated
according to the following standards:
All
claims for compounded prescriptions that contain a legend
ingredient can be sent to CBCA Rx through the on-line
system. Use the NDC number of the most expensive legend
drug when submitting a compounded prescription claim.
Indicate through your software that the prescription is
a compound through the use of the compound code. The NDC
numbers, medication names and quantities of the individual
ingredients in the prescription must be maintained in
the pharmacy's records and the pharmacy may be subject
to audit of these compounded prescriptions.
-
Prescription
Log
The
pharmacy shall have the member sign a prescription log
for all CBCA Rx prescriptions dispensed.
-
DEA
Number
CBCA
Rx uses the DEA number as part of its drug utilization
management programs. To provide the best quality service
to our Clients, CBCA Rx requires that pharmacies input
the DEA number on all submitted claims. CBCA Rx plans
to utilize another standard physician identifier as soon
as a new industry standard is available.
-
The
pharmacy provider is expected to substitute generic drug
products when appropriate and within the state laws and
regulations.
-
The
pharmacy provider is required to submit an accurate Dispense
as Written (DAW) code.
-
The
pharmacy provider is expected to display all Drug Utilization
Review (DUR) alerts to the dispensing pharmacist.
-
The
pharmacy provider is expected to facilitate member counseling
regarding medication use, storage, and potential adverse
effects.s
-
The
pharmacy provider is expected to notify CBCA Rx within
48 hours of any change regarding the pharmacy or pharmacists
license.
Troubleshooting
If
the pharmacy system or point-of-sale software is unable to
make a connection with the CBCA Rx claims processing system,
the pharmacy should contact the communication network vendor
(or chain headquarters if the pharmacy chain has a direct
line to CBCA Rx). If no problem is found through the efforts
of the communication network, please contact CBCA Rx at 1-800-383-8737.
If
clarification is desired for reasons provided for a claim
rejection, contact CBCA Rx at 1-800-383-8737. Please have
your pharmacy's NABP number and prescription number available,
as well as the member’s ID number when calling. This telephone
number should be used for any questions related to pharmacy,
prescriber, or member eligibility.
Adjustments
Through
internal quality control procedures, a pharmacy may discover
it has been incorrectly paid for a prescription. The prescription
may have been filled but not picked up by the member, or an
inadvertent billing error may have been made. DO
NOT send a refund check to CBCA Rx. Please notify CBCA
Rx of the overpayment and an adjustment will be made to a
future pharmacy check for the amount in question. CBCA Rx
will need the following information to make the adjustment:
*
Pharmacy NABP #
*
Member Name and Date
*
Dispense Date
*
RX number or NDC Number
In
summary, when an overpayment is discovered by the pharmacy,
contact CBCA Rx at 800-383-8737.

03: CBCA Rx IDENTIFICATION CARD
CBCA
Rx has many clients and several different eligibility cards.
Below is a sample card:


Members
of most plans are provided with a Membership Identification
card. Each family member may be listed on the card, each family
member may be issued his or her own card, or only the cardholder's
name may appear on the card.
When
filing a claim for services, it is important to see the ID
card and the name of the member who will be using the prescription.
The presentation of an ID card does not guarantee eligibility
for a prescription benefit. Eligibility can only be determined
through the on-line adjudication process or by approval from
CBCA Rx or CBCA Rx's representative.
For
cards with multiple service logos and information, please
note the above logo to represent CBCA Rx pharmacy services.
These
are some of the fields that generally appear on the card to
help the pharmacist identify the plan and the member.
GROUP
NUMBER: An EIGHT-digit number designated by
the Plan Sponsor or CBCA Rx MUST
be submitted by the pharmacy.
CARDHOLDER
ID NUMBER: (The subscriber identification
number). The cardholder ID number may be followed by a two-digit
suffix. This suffix should be included when submitting claim
information.
CARDHOLDER
NAME: The subscriber name associated with
the cardholder ID number.
COPAY:
Please refer to the Specific Plan Sponsor Information.
If
unable to process the claim electronically, please call the
Help Desk at 1-800-383-8737 to ascertain eligibility. Ensuring
that the member receives their prescription efficiently is
a primary concern of CBCA Rx.
WORKER’S
COMPENSATION PROGRAM: Please refer to the
Worker’s Compensation Section of this Manual.

prior authorization is needed: "75" with message
"Prior Authorization Required."
Please

facilitate the process by contacting the CBCA Rx helpdesk
at 1-800-383-8737. If this is not possible, please refer the
member to CBCA Rx’s helpdesk at 1-800-383-8737.

decisions will be communicated to the member. At the member’s
request and under specific arrangements, the pharmacy will
be notified directly.

07: PHARMACY AUDIT REQUIREMENTS
As
the prescription drug benefits manager for various customers,

pharmacy audit functions to ensure program integrity.
Audit
Considerations:

Section
08: COMPLAINT AND APPEALS PROCEDURE
CBCA
Rx maintains two separate procedures for resolving complaints
and formal grievances. While CBCA Rx prefers to resolve complaints
in an informal fashion, it recognizes that occasionally a
matter may not be resolved to the satisfaction of a member
or Provider. If that happens, the following are the steps
to take:
Complaints
A)
Denial of Urgent Services - This
procedure is to be used:
1) If a member has been denied needed, medically necessary and
potentially covered services AND
2) You or the Member believes that serious medical consequences
will arise in the near future (within 7 - 10 days) on the basis
of that denial.
You
(or the Member) should call Provider Relations and explain
the problem. CBCA Rx, or its agents, will collect the relevant
information from you and any other providers. CBCA Rx will
then review the matter. You and the Member will be notified
in writing of CBCA Rx's decision within five (5) business
days of the receipt of all the information necessary to decide
the issue, whichever is earliest.
B)
Other Complaints
Every
Member and every Provider may use this process to resolve
other types of complaints that have not been resolved informally.
For a Provider, this process is not appropriate for use in
credentialing and re-credentialing matters. The procedure
as described in this section is appropriate to use for the
following types of problems (the following is not an exhaustive
list):
-
The
patient will not follow medical instructions, and the Provider
wishes to terminate a relationship with the patient;
-
The Provider is unable to obtain records from another Provider
necessary to perform services;
-
The Provider is not receiving the reimbursement he/she believes
is required;
-
The Provider has experienced difficulties obtaining required
information from CBCA Rx or its agents;
-
CBCA Rx has denied prior approval for what the Provider
or patient believes to be an indicated, but not emergency,
service or referral.
These
complaints should be made by calling or writing the CBCA Rx
Provider Relations (or Member Services) Department. CBCA Rx
will investigate and a determination will be reached within
five (5) working days. This decision will be communicated
to you in writing within five (5) working days after that.
If
you or the patient is not satisfied with the resolution of
issues raised in this way, you may appeal using the formal
appeals process.
Formal
Appeals Procedure
This
Appeals Procedure is to be used after efforts to resolve a
problem informally, and then through the above procedures,
have not been successful in resolving the concern to the satisfaction
of the Member of the Provider. An appeal should be made within
120 days after the discovery of the problem leading to the
complaint.
- An
appeal must be requested in writing to CBCA Rx, Attn.:
Prescription Benefit Management, 675 Foxon Road, Suite
204, East Haven, CT 06513. The letter should contain a
statement of the problem, an explanation of why the earlier
efforts at resolution were not satisfactory, and a statement
of and rationale for the outcome you are seeking.
- Your
appeal will be presented to a Committee established by
CBCA Rx. If you wish to appear before the Committee in
person, please include that request in the letter of appeal;
CBCA Rx will then notify you of the date and time during
which the Committee will consider the appeal.
- If
the appeal concerns a denial of urgent services, the Committee
will decide your appeal within three (3) business days
of the receipt of the appeal. CBCA Rx will then notify
you immediately in writing of its decision. Otherwise,
the Committee will decide the appeal within fifteen
(15) business days of the receipt by CBCA Rx of
the appeal. CBCA Rx will notify you in writing of its
decision, and the reasons for it, within five (5)
business days of the decision. This letter will also describe
further appeal rights.
- In
all cases, unless otherwise determined by law, all final
appeals will be held with CBCA Rx’s client. This reflects
CBCA Rx’s client ultimately of establishing and interpreting
plan rules.

Section
09: WORKERS COMPENSATION
Workers
Compensation claims are processed on-line as other claims.
For
new injuries, claimants with established claims will present
a card. The prescription will have a sticker on the back.
This is the compensation guarantee of payment and provides
on-line billing information. For assistance, contact the Help
Desk at 800-383-8737.
Coverage
for Workers Compensation is determined by the outcome of the
injury claim. Coverage may be indefinite or as short as a
few weeks.
Each
injury claim is assigned an appropriate drug class coverage.
This may not always meet the Claimant’s needs. Please contact
CBCA Rx at 1-800-383-8737 or refer the claimant to CBCA Rx.
In
the event that the claimant and the medical provider designate
a drug as related to the nature of the injury, verbal approval,
from sources other than CBCA Rx, does not guarantee payment.

Section
10: FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q.
What is CBCA Rx’s BIN number?
A.
The BIN number for all CBCA Rx Plans is 006160.
Q.
What is CBCA Rx’s processor control code?
A.
CBCA Rx does not require an access code to process claims;
however, the switch or the chain headquarters might require
these to process.
Q.
What is my pharmacy’s access code for CBCA Rx to process
claims electronically?
A.
The CBCA Rx HelpDesk Associates do have an abbreviated list
of chain access codes. If you are contracted and do not know
your pharmacy’s access code, you can contact the CBCA Rx HelpDesk
or your software vendor for assistance.
Q.
Is my pharmacy a Contracted Pharmacy?
A.
Many independent pharmacies are contracted with CBCA Rx, but
may not realize they are in our network. This may occur when
that pharmacy is a member of an organization that is contracted
with CBCA Rx. For any non-participating pharmacy, upon contract,
CBCA Rx will facilitate an immediate 30-day processing opportunity.
A contract will be forwarded the following business day. Each
pharmacy that receives a newsletter has had claims processed
through CBCA Rx.
Q.
What is the correct relationship code for this member?
A.
Relationship code refers to the cardholder, spouse, and dependent.
It is independent of the person code; e.g., all dependents
may have the same relationship code.
Q.
What is the correct person code for a family member?
A.
Person Codes for family members usually follow a set pattern:
Cardholder is always "01"; Spouse is always "02";
dependents are numbered "03" to "99".
Usually, the dependents are numbered according to the age
of the dependent. The oldest dependent will start at "03".
The person codes assigned to the dependents within a specific
family are not reassigned when an older child is no longer
a dependent as defined by the plan parameters.
Q.
What does "Invalid Date of Birth" message mean if
the correct date of birth has been submitted?
A.
Always check the relationship code submitted. A cardholder
must be entered as such and submitted as a cardholder. Relationship
coding is primary in checking appropriate eligibility. If
a provider software has multiple linking requirements, oversight
of the multiple links may lead to submission of incorrect
data.
