Insurance Prior Auth: What to Prep

Many plans require prior authorization. Before your visit, gather BMI history, diagnosis/comorbidities, tried methods (diet, activity, meds, counseling), recent vitals, and your plan’s criteria. During the visit, confirm the exact GLP-1 and dose, step-therapy rules, and who submits the PA—then calendar a follow-up.
