Prior authorization is not "ensuring evidence-based care." It's health insurance companies paying themselves to deny your care.

On Care Talk, authors of the new Ban Prior Authorization report - Emma Freer & Hannah Garden-Monheit (American Economic Liberties Project) - join Laura Packard to explain how we went from a narrow tool to 99,290 clinicians' worth of paperwork, why AI is making denials worse, and why 71% of voters want a ban.

Dr. Madhury "Didi" Ray, preventative medicine physician and leader at Doctors for America, separates fact from fear in this episode with show host, cancer survivor, and health care advocate Laura Packard of Voices of Health Care Action.
