Proof Required?
Anthem Blue Cross is facing a class action settlement related to prescription drug denials. If you were a member of an Anthem Blue Cross health plan and had a prescription drug claim denied, you may be entitled to compensation as part of this settlement. The lawsuit alleges that Anthem Blue Cross improperly denied coverage for certain prescription drugs for members of grandfathered health plans — plans that were in place before the Affordable Care Act took effect. These denials may have left members paying out of pocket for medications their plan should have covered. If you had an Anthem Blue Cross grandfathered health plan and experienced a prescription drug denial, this settlement could put money back in your pocket. Read on to find out if you qualify and how to file your claim.

Who Is Eligible?

You may be eligible to file a claim if you:

  • You were enrolled in an Anthem Blue Cross grandfathered health plan (a plan in place before the Affordable Care Act)
  • You had a prescription drug claim denied by Anthem Blue Cross under that plan
  • You may have paid out of pocket for a medication that should have been covered
  • The specific eligibility dates and covered states are pending — check back for updates as more details become available

How Much Can You Get?

The specific payout amounts for this settlement have not yet been publicly confirmed. Compensation will likely depend on the number of valid claims filed and the nature of each member's denied prescription drug claim. Class action settlements involving insurance denials can result in meaningful reimbursements for affected members, potentially covering out-of-pocket costs paid for denied medications. As more details about the settlement fund and payout structure become available, we'll update this page. In the meantime, it's worth filing a claim to protect your right to compensation.

What is the Anthem Blue Cross prescription drug denials settlement about?

This settlement involves allegations that Anthem Blue Cross improperly denied prescription drug coverage to members of grandfathered health plans — plans that existed before the Affordable Care Act. If your drug claim was denied and you paid out of pocket, you may be eligible for compensation.

What is a grandfathered health plan?

A grandfathered health plan is a health insurance plan that was in existence before the Affordable Care Act (ACA) was signed into law on March 23, 2010, and has not made significant changes since then. These plans are not required to comply with all ACA provisions, which is at the center of this dispute.

Do I need proof to file a claim in the Anthem Blue Cross settlement?

It is not yet confirmed whether proof of a prescription drug denial is required. However, it's a good idea to gather any documentation you have, such as denial letters from Anthem, pharmacy receipts, or Explanation of Benefits (EOB) statements, in case proof is needed when you file.
