What physicians are saying about prior authorization. 

See what experts are saying

We're urging Congress to enact common-sense prior authorization reforms into law.

George A. Williams, MDSenior Secretary for Advocacy, AAO

The state of play for prior authorization puts the insurer — not the physician — in the driver's seat for patient care, and that is wreaking havoc on patient safety and well-being.

Deborah Dyett Desir, MDPresident of ACR (2024)

The rampant overuse of prior authorization continues to cause inappropriate delays and denials of medical treatments that our seniors need.

Russell R. Lonser, MD, FAANSPresident of AANS/CNS (2023-2024)

Prior authorization, by definition, creates delays in care and bureaucratic barriers for physicians — which is why it is so troubling that many insurers now require prior authorization for large categories of procedures with no evidence of overuse or inappropriate use.

Barbara Jung, MDPresident of AGA (2024)

Prior authorization often results in delays in care, which causes needless pain, delays in treatment, and suffering for patients and is a significant problem in today's delivery of health care.

Terrance A. Cronin, Jr., MD, FAADPresident of AADA (2023-2024)

Key to our advocacy efforts is
sharing the impact of prior authorization on patients and clinicians and sharing those stories with policymakers and the public.
