Grievances (or Complaints)

A grievance is a complaint you file with Granite Alliance. If you contact us with a complaint, we will file a grievance on your behalf. Your grievance (or complaint) could be about any of the following types of items:

You are unhappy with the quality of care you received

You believe someone did not respect your privacy or shared your information

You are unhappy with the customer service you received

You experienced long wait times for the pharmacist or on the phone with Customer Service

You are unhappy with the service received at or cleanliness of the pharmacy

You believe the information we provided was hard to understand

You believe we were not timely in our decision-making process

Any other type of issue that may cause you concern

What is not considered a Grievance?

If you are looking for approval on coverage of a medication, that would be considered a coverage determination. If you have already requested a coverage determination and it was denied, you are then able to submit an appeal or a redetermination. These processes themselves would not be considered a grievance.

How do I file a Grievance?

You have the right to file a complaint up to 60 days after the event has occurred. There are several ways that you can contact us to file a grievance. You can also use these methods if you wish to request an aggregate number of grievances, appeals, and exceptions filed with Granite Alliance.

When you contact us to file your grievance, either via phone or in writing, please have the following information available:

  • Your name
  • Your address
  • Your phone number
  • Member ID
  • Details about the grievance
  • Date the incident occurred
  • Your signature (when in writing)
  • If your Appointed Representative is filing a grievance on your behalf, also include a completed Appointment of Representative Form.
