Dr. Patrick B’s Story
I have a patient who had an abnormal ultrasound suggestive of liver cancer. A prior authorization for an obviously necessary’s MRI to clarify. His scheduling and approval took over four weeks
Dr. Gina’s Story
I have seen patients not able to get their Depo-Provera shots in time due to need for prior authorization.
Kathy’s Story
I recently spent over 10 hours trying to get a patient’s surgery authorized.
Cheryl’s Story
[Prior authorization] is an unnerving, time-consuming process to be endured for the sake of keeping my diabetes in control and not becoming an even greater burden to the insurance companies as a result of secondary complications that result when the disease is not controlled. This does not make sense.
Jason’s Story
My insurance company is demanding that I work for it one week per year (i.e., 40 hours) to fight for the medications that my doctor and I know are in my best interest.
Kathy’s Story
If my doctor had not given me samples, (it took over two weeks for the authorization to go through) I would have possibly been dead.
