open for business
As we work through this public health emergency, our primary goal is to keep everyone as safe and healthy as possible. Our continuity plan is allowing our employees to stay out of harm’s way with remote work capabilities. For our clients, that means they will still receive the service and support they’ve come to expect from Navitus. For members, that means that our best-in-class Customer Care Center will remain open 24 hours a day, seven days a week to answer questions and address their concerns.
Medication availability
Over the past few weeks, many of the member calls into Customer Care have been about potential drug shortages. We are carefully monitoring potential shortages of both specialty and non-specialty medications. While the situation is fluid, Navitus has contingency plans in place to update coverage for alternative products, should that become necessary.
POTENTIAL covid-19 TREATMENTS
While no validated treatments for COVID-19 have been identified, Navitus is monitoring existing and emerging studies. As we learn more about which products could be used, we will review utilization management strategies to allow for appropriate use.
