Medication prior-auths have become the bane of my practice. 30-50% of prescriptions are now bounce backs requiring prior auths. With the radiology prior-auths, at least the chart note can faxed by my office staff which helps with the authorization process. With the medication auths, the office staff has no idea about the ICDs that can be utilized (which are not listed in the note)/prior medications used etc to get an auth. How are you dealing with this? Thank you in advance for your responses.
