To amend title XVIII of the Social Security Act to require any advertisement of a Medicare Advantage plan to include information related to the rates of prior authorization denials under such plan.

This bill would require every advertisement for a Medicare Advantage plan to include information about how the plan handled prior authorization requests in its most recent completed plan year. The ads would have to state, by voice and on screen where possible, how many prior authorization requests the plan denied, how many denied requests were later reconsidered and approved, and the average number of days between the first denial and the later approval. The requirement would begin one year after the bill becomes law.
