This is US healthcare and what we face everyday. Deny care for our patients while paying themselves unbelievable bonuses.
To make a tough day even tougher, @UHC is denying a study I need on a patient. The study and process in question is one that I wrote the guidelines for. Level I. Do better “insurance” companies 30min on the phone & now they’re rescheduling me for a “ #PeerToPeer “ tomorrow

ArMA tirelessly advocated against the repeal of the Sunrise Review Process. When the bill passed out of the legislature, we petitioned Gov. Hobbs for a veto, & we were heard. We are grateful to Gov. Hobbs for listening to AZ's physician community & acting to protect patient care.
