What is a prior authorization request?

A formal request to your insurance company proving a treatment or medication is medically necessary before they agree to cover it. Your doctor usually initiates this process.

How long does prior authorization take?

Standard requests take 5-15 business days. Urgent requests must be processed within 24-72 hours. Ask your doctor to mark it urgent if your condition requires prompt treatment.

What if my prior authorization is denied?

You can appeal the denial. Ask your doctor for a peer-to-peer review with the insurance company's medical director — this often overturns denials faster than written appeals.
