New #priorauth requirements for GI endoscopy procedures will hurt our patients. UnitedHealthcare, don't implement the prior auth program on June 1 and cause more obstacles to care!

A staggering 8️⃣0️⃣ % of physicians report that #priorauth can lead to treatment abandonment. We don’t need a program that will cause more delays to GI patient care! I’m writing UnitedHealthcare to tell them to stop new prior auth requirements – have you? ow.ly/rnHq50Nq9OR

One of my favorite resources for patients and care givers to understand living with chronic liver disease...Check it out!

Today is Living Donor Day. #DonateLife #LivingDonorDay Won't you consider saving a life while you are still alive? Kidney and liver transplant candidates who are able to receive a living donor transplant can receive the best quality organ much sooner, often in less than a year.
