## Understanding Your Severe Asthma Biologic (Dupilumab, Omalizumab, etc.) Denial

Biologic medications for severe asthma, such as omalizumab, dupilumab, and others, are often denied because insurers say you have not met exact lab criteria, have not failed enough inhalers, or your asthma is not severe enough. These denials ignore how dangerous uncontrolled asthma can be.

## Common Reasons for Denial

- ! Does not meet blood eosinophil or IgE thresholds
- ! Insufficient trial of high-dose inhaled corticosteroids and other controllers
- ! Asthma not documented as severe or uncontrolled
- ! Non-formulary biologic requested when a different one is preferred

## How We Help

We help you explain your asthma history, ER visits, oral steroid bursts, and test results so that an appeal clearly shows you meet guideline-based criteria for a biologic and that ongoing uncontrolled asthma is unsafe and costly.

## Some Types of Evidence We Can Use For Supporting Your Appeal

*✓* Uncontrolled asthma is associated with frequent ER visits, hospitalizations, and impaired quality of life.

## Frequently Asked Questions

Frequent symptoms, night awakenings, multiple ER or urgent care visits, hospitalizations, or repeated steroid bursts are all signs of uncontrolled asthma. Your appeal should list these events and any limitations on daily activities.

Many biologics require lab values such as eosinophil counts or IgE levels. If you have those results, include them and have your doctor explain how they match the criteria. If results are borderline, your doctor can still explain why treatment is appropriate.

Yes. Your clinician can explain why the prescribed biologic is the best choice for you, based on your phenotype, comorbidities, prior response, or side effects with others.
