ALL STUDENTS PLEASE READ!!

Coronavirus Update
Good afternoon Students,
After careful consideration following the Governor's recommendations of re opening of businesses, I have decided for the health and safety of our students and staff that we will NOT have classes in person for the rest of the 2019/2020 school year. You will be continuing your ONLINE learning sessions. PPATKS cannot ensure safe social distancing or adherence to the person numbers limitations. Therefore, we would rather err on the side of caution instead of taking the risk of making some ill.
All groups must complete the classes online as shown in the schedule below. Groups 4,5 and 6 will need to complete a 3rd online session which is not shown here. Additionally there are some students who have required make up time. We will be reaching out to you to discuss this make up time in the very near future.
PPATKS will remain proactive with our communication as we work closely with various state and local agencies. As always, please call our office at (316) 267-8508 should you have questions on this matter.
Respectfully,
John Clark Training Director

Cigna is extending prior authorizations (PA) for covered medications:

For customers with Cigna Integrated Medical-Pharmacy benefits:
• Customers with an active Cigna Pharmacy prior authorization that expires between April 1 – June 1 will automatically have the prior authorization extended for 90 days. For example, an authorization set to expire on April 15 will now be applicable through July 15.
• PA extensions apply to both specialty and non-specialty prescription medications, and includes specialty medications covered under Cigna medical benefits.
• Customers do not need to take any action; the prior authorization expiration dates will be updated by Cigna in our system.
We understand customers may not be able to keep routine physician visits and well exams, and extending prior authorizations for medications will help ensure customers have uninterrupted access.
