Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield uses this general request for prescription drug prior authorization or a step therapy exception when no drug-specific form applies. The multi-region version covers members in western and northeastern Pennsylvania, central and southeastern Pennsylvania, western New York and northeastern New York, and a separate version serves Delaware. A prescriber meets it when a Highmark member's drug needs approval.
The prescriber completes the whole two-page form.

Prescription Drug Medication Request Form
If your copy of the form is a fillable PDF, upload it once and Vero Documents fills it from the visit note and the chart, ready for you to review and sign. Download, print, or email the finished form, with the patient’s consent.
A form is listed only after its name and number were confirmed on the issuing agency’s or insurer’s own website, or in the form itself. Each entry links to that source. The list was last checked in October 2026. Forms and their requirements change without notice, so check the official page for the current version before you complete one.

Highmark lists it for western and northeastern Pennsylvania, central and southeastern Pennsylvania, western New York and northeastern New York. Delaware has its own version, and West Virginia paper prior authorization forms were removed because state law requires electronic submission.
Highmark's pharmacy prior authorization forms page states that all prior authorization requests must now be submitted through its provider portal, Availity. The form remains posted, so it can be used to gather the drug, diagnosis and history details before entering the electronic request.
