You know, all this pre-auth stuff is just getting ridiculous. Doesn't seem to matter anymore if the doc says you need a particular medicine. Used to be a script was all you needed.
Now it's like the ins company says "OK, lets have a few of our doctors, who sit in a room & know nothing of your health issues & history, review this script & decide, based on what limited info we have, if you really need to have this medicine."

Much simpler, and cheaper, here in the UK.

Oh jeez. Especially if they keep recommending things you've already tried before. You and my mom would have a field day with this topic. She had two pills that were downright denied because they wanted to try something else instead of one that A: she knew would work (It was a refill for one of 'em) and B: she'd tried everything else with three other doctors.
Thats another thing too, who decided it would be a good idea to change doctors every one or two years? Oh yeah, get to know this doctor, they'll know all your problems within no time but- oop their time is up here! Bring in the next!
Psssshhh Sorry. This whole thing just riles me up. Its dumb
Edit:
Oh hey, guess who ranted so much she missed 5 posts?

Yeah, it is & I envy your system for that.
Ther's talk that supposedly they're going to amend the system & start negotiations with drug companies for lower rates, like in other countries.
Problem is the companies pump millions of dollars into congress to support the current system, so I'm not holding my breath on that one.
One of the companies that makes opioids filed for bankruptcy according to what my Wife said. They lost a massive lawsuit brought on by other states. The companies, years back, claimed that their product was non-addictive, & the govt never investigated & took their word on it. And that's why we have the addictive mess we have now.
