Texas Commissioner of Insurance Julia Rathgeber has appointed a committee of health care professionals to advise her on the technical, operational, and practical aspects of developing a standard form for requesting prior authorization of health care services. The Advisory Committee for the Standard Request Form for Prior Authorization of Medical Care and Health Care Services was created by Senate Bill 1216 (83rd Legislature).
“I would like to thank each of these professionals for agreeing to serve on this new advisory committee,” Commissioner Rathgeber said. “The Texas Department of Insurance depends on the public service of individuals like these to fulfill its regulatory mission.”
