Prior Prescription (RX) Authorization Forms

The prior prescription authorization forms are used by a doctor’s office to make a request to an insurer or government office if a drug is covered by the patient’s health insurance. The form should list the patient’s name, types of symptoms, and the reason for the drug’s medication over other approved types. After the form is complete it can be emailed or faxed and usually an answer is given between 10 and 14 business days.
