Appeal a decision
Prescribers, delegates, and designates can appeal an EAP decision through SADIE to provide additional relevant clinical information when a notice of decision has been issued and a request has not been approved.
For more information on requesting appeals, see the SADIE User Guide, Chapter 18. Videos and other supports can be found at SADIE Training Aids.
