University of Georgia Research Reveals Disparities in Medicare Advantage Mental Health Prior Authorization

University of Georgia Research Reveals Disparities in Medicare Advantage Mental Health Prior Authorization

Research from the University of Georgia indicates that Medicare Advantage (MA) beneficiaries in socially vulnerable counties face more restrictive prior authorization (PA) requirements for mental health services. A cross-sectional analysis of 2,945 U.S. counties in 2022 found that counties in the highest decile for socioeconomic vulnerability had overall PA rates that were 7.2 percentage points higher compared to the lowest decile. This disparity was most pronounced for psychiatric services, showing a 16.9 percentage point gap. Conversely, mean monthly premiums in these vulnerable counties were significantly lower, dropping from $29 in the first decile to $8 in the tenth. The study also revealed that the most vulnerable counties offered five fewer plans with less restrictive PA policies and four more plans with more restrictive policies. These findings suggest that existing structural barriers to mental health care are compounded by these more stringent PA requirements in vulnerable communities.
