Understanding Your Aimovig for Migraine Prevention Denial
Aimovig is often denied due to strict step-therapy rules or incomplete documentation. A focused appeal can show that you meet standard criteria for CGRP therapy.
Common Reasons for Denial
- ! Fewer than required trialed preventive drugs documented
- ! Migraine days per month not clearly stated
- ! Insurer prefers a different CGRP agent
- ! Issues with prior authorization timing
