Clinically Emergent Requests (Patient-Specific Priority 1 Items)
Patients requiring emergent care come in during all hours of operation, and this freeze will not affect your ability to care for these patients. To submit a Clinically Emergent request, please follow the established CQVA Rapid Approval process, which begins at the local hospital:

-
Submit items to the Clinical Quality Value Analysis (CQVA) email ummscqva@umm.edu.

Include “Priority 1 Indication” and the product information in the email subject.
