Understanding Your Emgality for Migraine Prevention Denial

Emgality is often denied until patients have failed a long list of older preventives. Appeals can show that you meet criteria and that Emgality is needed to reduce disability and emergency visits.

Common Reasons for Denial

  • ! Not enough failed preventive medications documented
  • ! Migraine frequency not clearly recorded
  • ! Insurer prefers a different CGRP antibody
  • ! Quantity limits or duration limits
