ACTION ALERT: Step Therapy/Fail First
We are looking for information on how step therapy, or "fail first" treatments, have affected our community. Step therapy is a form of prior authorization in which an insurance company requires a patient to demonstrate unsuccessful treatment, or "fail first", on certain medications before they receive coverage for the medication their doctor recommends. If you, your loved one, or your clients have experienced step therapy or fail first, we want to hear from you! Complete this short, 2 minute survey by Friday, 9/29/23 to be entered in a raffle to win a $25 Macy's gift card!
