TIL that Prior Authorization Specialist is an actual title.
Yes, they need specialists... in prior authorizations... I guess they learn the kung fu necessary to make the authorization go through.
You're a doctor? Haha... that's not enough.
You're a pharmacist? Not enough.
A nurse? Are you kidding me?
No, you need to be a Prior Authorization Specialist.
The US healthcare system is batshit crazy.

It's all very well and good to say "you're on the wait list, if anyone cancels!" but my good man, why would anyone cancel a specialist appointment when the wait is 5 months? If my eczema is gone and my skin glows healthy radiance by the time I get in at the dermatologist, I will get my moles checked. If I break my leg on the way to the OB-GYN, I'm going to hop there.
