The prior authorization process has a corner of hell called peer-to-peer where you have to call and talk to a physician outside your specialty who works for the company
Finding time for them is a PITA
In my experience these are always immediately approved because you have jumped through the hoops

I did my first peer-to-peer for acute rehab placement and was shocked by how fast it was approved it once explaining why it was essential. To me, the worst part was keeping our patient who was medically ready for discharge hospitalized longer when they could have been getting skilled rehabilitation.
