As far as Aetna and their plans, at least some cover Eliquis. For example, the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aetna.com\/content\/dam\/aetna\/pdfs\/aetnacom\/individuals-families-health-insurance\/document-library\/pharmacy\/archive-drug-guides\/Feb_2025_Advanced_Control_Plan_Aetna.pdf\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2025 Advanced Control Plan<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> covers a 5 mg oral tablet and a 2.5 mg oral tablet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prior authorization with the health insurance company is often needed. In short, they want to know the underlying diagnosis or reason for the treatment. \u201cThe criteria for a prior authorization for Eliquis usually is either treatment for DVT or pulmonary embolism,\u201d says Dr. Deepak Khanna, DO, an internist and family medicine physician at UPenn and the founder of dandRX, an FDA-approved anti-dandruff shampoo. \u201cOr especially in those patients who are recently postoperative, they usually require a 30- to 45-day Eliquis dose to prevent a DVT.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If a patient has <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.accessdata.fda.gov\/drugsatfda_docs\/label\/2025\/202155s039s040lbl.pdf\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">DVT<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, it may show up in ultrasound imaging or D-dimer blood test results. There is generally no special preparation required to get accurate results on a D-dimer test.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eliquis can prevent other conditions, too, he continues, such as a stroke in patients who have a history of multiple strokes. However, this would be an off-label use.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how-to-get-approved-for-eliquis\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to get approved for Eliquis<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Healthcare providers are in charge of getting patients approved. \u201cTypically, when I am tasked to do a prior authorization \u2026 It involves me calling the prior authorization phone number,\u201d Dr. Khanna says. \u201cI explain to them the rationale for why the patient needs this medication and why no other medication would be beneficial for this patient.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s why healthcare providers are needed here: They affirm the medical necessity for an individual patient to get Eliquis. \u201cIf Eliquis is indeed what this patient requires in order to treat their medical condition successfully, I usually go out of my way to make sure that the patient gets the dose,\u201d Dr. Khanna continues.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Medical professionals are also helpful in that they create different treatment plans when problems occur. For example: \u201cIf the patient requires an anticoagulation medication like Eliquis, but the prior authorization is denied, then I will look at alternatives like Coumadin,\u201d Dr. Khanna says.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have additional questions or want more information or tips on getting approved for Eliquis, talk to a medical assistant or medical provider. Most practices aim to provide thorough service that leads to the highest patient satisfaction.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how-much-does-eliquis-cost\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How much does Eliquis cost?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/eliquis-without-insurance\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Without insurance<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, Eliquis typically costs $398 for 28, 5 mg tablets at state-licensed pharmacies.
