How I Can Help
I can be in attendance at your medical appointments (physically or via Telehealth) and communicate with your existing and/or new MDs, PAs, NPs, etc. Knowing what questions to ask your provider at each and every visit is key. It can be overwhelming for any patient and potentially cause unnecessary stress. Let me help take some of that burden off of you and break it all down in terms you can understand after reviewing your existing medical records (with your signed consent). I can help you translate the Explanation of Benefits (EOBs) received from your insurance provider. I can call your current insurance provider to help with any home care needs, referrals such as PT/OT and ask any questions you, the patient, may have in relation to your current health insurance policy.

Why I Became A Professional Health Care Advocate
Healthcare has drastically changed since I started approximately 23 years ago. Trying to translate the complex medical jargon is one thing many of my patients and many family members ask. Having someone to help you translate and navigate is like having a nurse in the family. Asking questions is one of your patient rights as is informed consent. I realized this has always been one of, if not my favorite part of my almost 23 years in healthcare... Spending quality time with each patient to understand concerns and help each navigate a complicated healthcare system.
