Rising hospital and drug costs, especially for GLP-1 medications like Wegovy, are pushing premiums even higher.
Without policy action, affordability will remain out of reach for many.

Insurance systems sometimes feel like obstacle courses disguised as “coverage.” Long phone calls. Confusing plan details. Endless paperwork. Denials that make no sense & patients aren’t the only ones stuck; providers spend hours fighting the same maze.
This is why understanding health policy matters

These aren’t abstract rules on a government website. They shape who gets care, how quickly, and whether a family can actually afford treatment. The more we talk about it, the harder it becomes to ignore. Save this for the next time you’re stuck on hold… again. 🫠

Prior Authorization was designed to reduce unnecessary care but in practice, it often delays urgent treatment and exhausts both patients and providers.
You’ve likely experienced it if:
📌 Your prescription was denied, even though your doctor approved it
📌 Your MRI got postponed for “review”

📌 Your doctor seemed frustrated at the system, not at you
This process is under scrutiny nationwide because the cost isn’t just in paperwork. It’s in delayed diagnoses, denied access, and in some cases... real harm.
The policy is complex. The consequences are personal.

Medicare’s COVID-era telehealth flexibilities expired on Sept 30, 2025 creating confusion and new barriers to care.
That means:
🚫 Patients with chronic illnesses may need to drive hours for appointments.
💻 Small rural clinics could lose funding without telehealth visits.

Telehealth isn’t a luxury it’s a lifeline. When policies dry up, so does care. Two bipartisan bills aim to make these flexibilities permanent & invest $50B in rural health but experts question if it’s enough to prevent future care gaps
