Some medicines, procedures, and treatments require prior authorization. A prior authorization is an approval your healthcare provider needs to get from your health insurance company before you can get certain medicines or begin particular treatments. Without prior authorization, your insurance plan may not pay for your medication or treatments and you would be responsible for the full cost.

Your healthcare provider’s office will usually submit the information required for a prior authorization to your insurance company for you. Currently, prior authorization requests are processed within 14 days, and within 72 hours if the need is urgent.

If your prior authorization is denied, don’t despair. You may just need to work more closely with your healthcare provider to appeal the decision. Or, check for more resources from the medication’s website.

Once approved, keep a record of your prior authorizations in case you need to make the request again in the future.
