A patient advocate is a licensed professional who helps patients and families navigate the healthcare system by working with healthcare professionals and insurance companies to coordinate the best care possible at an affordable cost. We help you make sense of the confusing and frustrating maze of the healthcare system by:
- Assisting with insurance forms, billing reviews and claims appeals
- Making sure the patient understands medications and treatment options
- Accompanying clients to doctor appointments and helping simplify the doctor's instructions
- Helping patients transition from a hospital to a home or other healthcare facility
- Scheduling follow up appointments and tests
- Researching and recommending treatment and care options
- Providing unbiased care options because we aren't paid by any facilities or insurance companies
