ProPublica is launching an investigation into how health insurers use prior authorization and its impact on patients. The newsroom is asking the public to share experiences of denied or delayed care, aiming to determine whether the process still leads to treatment delays and harm. Readers can submit their insurance denial stories to help guide the reporting.
Why now: Prior authorization denials are a persistent source of frustration for patients and doctors, and the call for public stories invites people to share their experiences.
