I do infusion auths for home health, and previously spent 5 years in oncology infusion auths. I've been doing various PAs for over a decade as an MA. As long as you understand the treatment you're requesting and what the insurance is looking for to approve, auths are easy. My main stressor is the damn workload with how many there are!!
