Summary
HMSA is allowing early refills of maintenance medications due to Tropical Storm Calvin to ensure patients have adequate medication supplies during the emergency. This is a temporary policy adjustment for Hawaii providers to address potential supply disruptions.
Action Required
Immediately: Billing teams should verify with HMSA that early refill claims for maintenance medications will be processed without standard refill-too-soon rejections during the tropical storm period. Monitor claim processing for any unusual denials related to early refills.
