Prior authorization is a process that prevents medical care, with an average turnaround time of eternity.^[1][2] It is as painful as drinking pure capsaicin. For that reason, no health care provider ever does it; it causes dyspnea. Official scorecard: insurers 1, health care practitioners 0, patients 0. Let us put in this way: not even God Himself can figure out prior auth.^[3] To undertake the process of a prior authorization is to suffer a death by infinite paper cuts.
