What Is a Patient Advocate?
A patient advocate is a trained professional that helps you or your loved one navigate the complex system we call health care. It is like having a parent, or sibling that happens to be a health care professional in your family. Advocates help answer your questions in a way you can understand and help you to make the best decision for you and your unique personal situation. Independent health advocates work for YOU, not the insurance company or large health care corporation. A patient advocate can save you critical time and money by helping you get the right care and answers you need when you need it.
