Seniors shouldn’t have to fight insurers for timely care. Urge Congress to #PassTheSeniorsAct and reform MA prior authorization. #FixPriorAuth
Regulatory Relief Coalition retweeted
Yeah... @RepGregMurphy came with receipts @UHC. And as the younger people say, he left absolutely no crumbs. 🔥
A physician. A patient. A Member of Congress. Three perspectives, one unmistakable message: Patients deserve better.
This isn't a soundbite. Dr. Murphy walks the walk. He champions bipartisan legislation that puts patients first and pushes his colleagues to act.
Keep cooking, Dr. Murphy. 🔥🧠 #Fixpriorauth

Health insurance companies should work for patients, not stand in the way of their care. As a physician, I’ve seen how insurance denials can delay treatment and put patients in difficult positions. Our health insurance system needs serious reform that puts patients first and ensures Americans can access the care their doctors recommend.
