BCBS Vitamin Approval

Did anyone esle have to get a prior approval from ANthem Blue Cross Blue SHield for the vitamin subscription through Nascobal? The clinic is saying most of the time if they require a prior authorization then they won't approve it but not trying to get my hopes down. Also, Nascobal said it would be $488 per month if I were to pay it myself.

Thanks!
