In recent years, health insurers have faced criticism for prior authorization requirements, where an insurer must approve a medical service before a patient receives it to ensure coverage.

Health Affairs has collected a panel of experts to discuss the current state of prior authorization and how prior authorization processes and regulations affect drugs/pharmaceuticals, oncology/cancer care, and opioid use disorder treatment plans.

Speakers include:

A. Mark Fendrick, The University of Michigan's Center for Value-Based Insurance Design (Moderator)
Ravi Gupta, Johns Hopkins School of Public Health
Michael Anne Kyle, Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania
Christina Andrews, University of South Carolina Arnold School of Public Health
