Have you ever left a doctor’s appointment with a whole plan to tackle some health issue you’re facing, only to get a call later saying someone at your insurance company, who may or may not be a doctor, needs more information before they’ll approve coverage for this thing your doctor is certain you need?
That is the dreaded prior authorization, and it’s the topic of this week’s Healthcare Triage.
