MSSNY is advocating for multiple pieces of legislation (such as A.2352, McDonald/S.7470, Hoylman and A.3789, Weprin/S.7297, Hoylman) to reduce excessive prior authorization hassles imposed by health insurers on physicians seeking to provide needed care for their patients, and we need your input.
Pervasive and overwhelming prior authorization demands can cause unnecessary delays in needed care for patients. Delay in authorization of prescriptions, tests or procedures can cause needless anxiety for patients already stressed by uncertainty regarding their condition, particularly those with chronic conditions who have complex medical needs, and their health depends on following strict treatment plans.
Physicians, please help us in these advocacy efforts by taking a moment to complete a survey to help us further define the impact that excessive prior authorizations are having on your patients’ ability to access to needed care, and please send a letter to your legislators Prior Authorization Reform urging that they enact these prior authorization reform bills this year!
