UnitedHealthcare - Outpatient Hospital - Oncology Specialty Pharmacy Requirement

Now begins June 18th!

The sourcing requirement for outpatient hospitals to obtain certain oncology supportive care medications for our commerical plan members will go into effect on June 18, 2021, not June 7, 2021 as previously announced in March and April 2021.

New specialty pharmacies

We’ve added two new sourcing pharmacies that can be used for the oncology specialty pharmacy requirement.

Please refer to the Specialty Pharmacies for Oncology Supportive Care Medications list for the indicated specialty pharmacies and oncology supportive care medications that must be obtained from a specialty pharmacy.
