#15 Medication’s Prior authorization, All what you need to know
With Marian Haze, CPTh & Marilena Grittani, RPh
This is a packed with information episode.
We discussed at length topics that only pharmacists and pharmacy technicians know, and I got a great one to have this chat: Marian Haze.
Some of the most relevant points she made are:
- What are pharmacy technicians and what is the difference between the pharmacist, the clerks, and the technician.
- What legally is allowed for each one of these employees to do.
- What are prior authorizations and why do you get them.
- Who is responsible to get your medication approved by the insurance, and what you can do to get it done faster.
- Why the insurance denies you medications and how to work around that.
- Tips and tricks to get your medication faster.
- Among a few more details of the complicated process of a prior authorization.

“I just do it because I want to make it better for them because, I feel like that the kind of position that I would want to be in, I would want someone to take care of me and explain things to me even if it’s over and over and over again”
