So after 20 years of practice, Board Certified, MOC'd, actually caring for the patient, deciding on best care alternatives, why would ANYone interfere with that? You deny my request, fine, you have NOW taken over the care and treatment of the patient, with all the responsibilities of that care. How can you give us all the accountability, but no authority? This must change.

– Dr. M. B., Ohio
Share your story

Have you ever gone to the pharmacy to fill a prescription only to be told that your insurance company requires approval before they'll cover your treatment? Have you ever waited for days, weeks or months for a test or medical procedure to be scheduled because you needed authorization from an insurer? Or are you a physician frustrated with the administrative headaches and their impact on your patients?

Please tell us know how prior authorization has impacted you. We are looking for stories from patients and physicians to highlight and draw attention to this issue that is impacting the health of so many Americans.
