This tool is NOT for submission of Ig use review requests for the following: Rho (D) Immune Globulin and WinRho SD injections for the prevention or treatment of Rh incompatibility Specific hyperimmune serum globulin after exposure to Botulinum, Cytomegalovirus, Diphtheria, Hepatitis B, Measles, Rabies, Tetanus, Vaccinia, or Varicella-Zoster Any Ig product for prophylaxis against disease (for example, GamaSTAN SD [Grifols Therapeutics Inc., Research Triangle Park, NC] for hepatitis A prophylaxis) Note: Please see the following related document for additional information: DRUG Administration of Immunoglobulin as a Treatment of Recurrent Spontaneous Abortion Please check all of the following that apply to the individual: Immune Globulin (Ig) therapy for the treatment of an individual with the following: A.

Autoimmune Neutropenia D. Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP) (Please check the following that apply): Initial Authorization: As initial trial (up to 12 weeks) for Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP) and the clinical presentation is not consistent with other polyneuropathies (for example, IgM neuropathy, hereditary neuropathy, diabetic neuropathy) (Please check the following that apply): Proximal muscle weakness or sensory dysfunction caused by neuropathy and nerve conduction studies (NCS) confirm there is electrodiagnostic evidence of demyelinating neuropathy in at least 2 limbs Distal muscle weakness and results of diagnostic testing meet a recognized set of diagnostic criteria as established by the American Academy of Neurology (AAN), or Inflammatory Neuropathy Cause and Treatment (INTAC). (If checked, please indicate which criteria used and which diagnostic tests meet): Reauthorization: Clinically significant improvement in neurological symptoms is documented on physical examination. (If checked, please note improvements): Has been on treatment for less than 1 year Has been on treatment for at least 1 year and continued need is demonstrated by documentation that attempts on an annual basis to titrate the dose or the interval of therapy result in worsening symptoms.
