Part 2 of ACP-Medicine Forward series on solutions to #FixPriorAuth happening now w/ amazing lineup! @gabrieldane, co-founder w/ @EricTopol of @MedicineForward, kicks off the mtg w/ comments about urgency of #MedTwitter #advocacy & activism to protect dr-patient relationship.
Dr. @ShikhaJainMD is orienting audience to the amt of time #MedTwitter spends doing prior auth & peer-to-peer calls, in many cases w/ insurance company "peers" w/ no training in the specialty. Some could not even pronounce the tumor type or drug name. #DenialOfCare #FixPriorAuth
Dr. @ShikhaJainMD says that she cares for a patient with #cancer whose insurance company only allow 4 CT scans LIFETIME for their #cancer, which prevents her from assessing how well the treatment is working. This is absurd & MUST be fixed. #DenialOfCare #FixPriorAuth #MedTwitter

Judge Bastian, in EDWA, just ruled from bench in Washington v. Azar, "conscience rule" #DenialOfCare case, Washington's motion for summary judgment GRANTED, fed gov's DENIED. Rule vacated. Written opinion to follow "later."
Judge agreed with NY's Judge Englemayer decision that (1) it is appropriate to decide on the MSJ; (2) exceeds HHS's statutory authority; (3) rule is arbitrary & capricious for reasons in SDNY opinion; (4) unconstitutional in certain respects.
Judge Bastian said his written opinion will focus on issues in this case that Judge Englemayer didn't address. Also (w/parties' agreement) he said it's no longer urgent to get opinion by Nov 22 when rule was originally set to take effect (just in way of when to expect it).
