The current prior authorization process leads to unnecessary delays that is detrimental to patient care! We need prior authorization reform now! @IBDMD @DocCohenIBD @UChicagoIBD @UChicagoGI @CrohnsColitisFn #IBD

With ease of starting IL23 for IBD (good insurance coverage, bridge program). Should we stop trying to dose escalate Stelara? There are substantial delays with appeals process (months) and extra work needed to appeal! #GITwitter #IBD.

We have observed significantly higher rates (almost 30%) of acne with upadacitinib (JAKne) than in clinic trials (~7-8%). We found younger age, upadacitinib dose and female gender being risk factors for development! @amelia_kellar @IBDMD @Klein_Jeremy.
Grateful to be a part of this important work led by @IBDPharmD @IBDMD examining incidence and risk factors for development of acne in IBD patients treated with upadacitinib @Klein_Jeremy @UChicagoIBD.

One of the biggest challenges we have been encountering for #IBD care are the increasing role of quantity limit PAs! Although we are getting medications approved they are requiring a separate PA for the dose. These are leading to significant delays in care! #GITwitter.

IBD PharmDs can be an important member of the care team! This study shows delays in therapy if a PharmD is involved 🤔. The value an IBD PharmD brings ensures safe, effective, and timely initiation and continuation of therapies! #IBD #PharmD #GITwitter.
