The Regulatory Relief Coalition (RRC), of which the AANS and the CNS are leaders, sent a letter to Sens. Roger Marshall, MD (R-Kan.), Ben Ray Luján (D-N.M), Roger Wicker (R-Miss.) and Joe Machin (I-W.V.) in support of the Electronic Prior Authorization for Prescription Drugs Act (S. 4349). This bill would establish a secure electronic prior authorization process for prescription drug plans in the commercial market. By providing a secure electronic transmission of these requests, this bill would streamline the process, reduce administrative burdens on health care providers, and ensure that patients receive timely access to necessary medications.
