  • Follow-up: Prior authorisation: what the criteria usually require Replied, post #10 · Access › Insurance & coverage · 7 Jun 2026 · 3 likes I disagree with the reply above, and I think the disagreement is substantive rather than terminological. The distinction being drawn does not survive when you look at…
