Beginning June 1, 2023, UnitedHealthcare plans to implement a burdensome, new prior authorization program for many GI endoscopy procedures for Commercial plans in almost every market.
This prior auth program is poorly designed and will cause delays of care for high-risk individuals. Patients don’t need more obstacles to care and you don’t need more red tape.
Tell UnitedHealthcare to stop new prior authorization requirements! Here's how you can get involved:
Learn how this program would hurt patients care and add red tape for physicians.
A poorly designed #priorauth program will delay GI patient care and add red tape for physicians and staff. @UHC, @askUHC — reconsider your GI endoscopy prior auth program!
New #priorauth requirements for GI endoscopy procedures will hurt patients. @UHC, @askUHC — reconsider your GI endoscopy prior auth program. Don't cause more obstacles to care for the highest-risk people in our community!
A staggering 8️⃣0️⃣ % of physicians report that #priorauth can lead to treatment abandonment. We don’t need a program that will cause delays for patient care! I wrote @UHC @askUHC to tell them to reconsider their GI endoscopy prior auth program – have you? https://t.co/lTA5e0qmo2
