Cut the Red Tape Because Patient Care Can’t Wait
It’s time to fix broken prior authorizations.
When insurance companies get between patients and their physicians, three things happen:
Patient care gets delayed.
Doctors get buried under red tape.
Health care gets more expensive.
That’s why Alabama physicians and patient advocates are working together to fix prior authorizations. Prior authorizations require doctors to get insurers’ approval beforepatients can get the medical tests, medicines and other treatments their doctors say they need.
“Imagine forcing a patient with a severe illness to wait days or weeks for authorization from an insurance company to start treatment. Now imagine a doctor having to employ multiple back-office personnel just to manage that insurer-imposed burden. Patients are left waiting for approval of necessary care and physicians are drowning in red tape.”
Dr. George Koulianos, a physician in Mobile
