Sources at a large HMO in my area say Rituxan will probably be approved for coverage, but the internal review process in the HMO ordinarily takes months! The HMO approval process for Rituxan started after final FDA approval, not a minute before. If an individual patient pushes, there would probably be earlier approval for that patient. So there may a significant ramp-up time before there is widespread coverage, if this HMO is any indication.
