This bill supports pre-authorization for 12 clinical visits without the hassle of requesting additional visits from providers. If you’re a clinician working in New Hampshire, please support this bill.

Pre-approval! SB 480 is ready to support. Take the time to advocate!

YOUR ADVOCACY IS NEEDED!

SB480, Limiting certain prior authorization requirements for physical therapy, occupational therapy, and similar rehabilitative services, is a bill that would require insurance companies allow 12 visits before asking for authorization. Currently, insurance companies often require the clinician to submit the evaluation prior to continued treatment being authorized. The approval process can legally take up to 30 days before authorization is approved.

This bill would prevent that gap in care, and assure that clients receive the services they need in a timely manner without the fear of denial.

It is a bipartisan bill, which will help support successful passage HOWEVER, that is not a guarantee. We are asking you to reach out to the committee members now to let them know that you support SB480. If you have an anecdote that is appropriate to share, personal stories have impact.

Go to: nhota.org/advocacy to read the bill and for resources for the health committee with a sample letter to advocate!
