How I Can Help
I work with Individuals and families of all ages and all medical conditions that require collaboration, support and guidance. I advocate directly on your behalf with all insurance companies.

I have extensive knowledge of Traditional Medicare, Medicare Part C (HMO), and Medicaid.

I assist with finding food resources, transportation, medication assistance programs and many other benefit programs in your area including any extra benefits available to you by your health insurance company.

I help complete all social service benefit applications, follow-up until approval or denial and assist with appeals as requested.

Advanced Directives are very important to have completed prior to making care decisions. You want to ensure your autonomy and wishes are in order. I can help get these documents completed with you and/or with family.

If needed, I can guide you to appropriate legal services as needed for your specific situation.

I assist with initiating guardianship and helping families understand the process while promoting family inclusion for prospective ward.

I obtain appropriate medical equipment and devices for you and your loved one’s safety at home or in community living.

I provide transparent and honest guidance regarding how Home Health Care/Palliative Care/Hospice Care can affect your care and how benefits are utilized in these programs so you can plan ahead.

Why I Became A Professional Health Care Advocate
My father was diagnosed in 2023 with colorectal cancer and required surgery and chemotherapy. He had just retired from work. I went with him through various appointments and chemotherapy.

Although my father was well enough to ask questions and advocate for himself when needed; it was eye opening from a family member point of view how staff did not ensure patient understanding during appointments and instead relied on computer programs such as MyChart for any after visit information.

When my father’s COBRA insurance payment was late; he nearly did not receive treatment even after verifying payment was made. I realized having an advocate who only works for their client to ensure all options are given and for patients understand their options both medically and financially, is priceless and should be given as soon as possible.
