How I Can Help
When a health plan denies a treatment, medication, or service, the letter often raises more questions than it answers. I help patients, families, and caregivers understand what the plan decided, why, and whether an appeal is worth pursuing.
I review your denial against the plan's own coverage criteria and the rules it must follow, then give you an honest opinion, including when an appeal isn't the right step. When one is warranted, I prepare it with your physician's support and track it through decision, including independent external review.
I work with prior-authorization denials for medical, pharmacy, behavioral health, and home care services. I don't take inpatient or urgent (72-hour) cases. My practice follows four principles: wisdom, justice, courage, and temperance. I don't promise outcomes; I promise careful preparation and honest communication.

Why I Became A Professional Health Care Advocate
In 2020, my newborn son spent eleven days in the NICU. For eight of those days, he carried the wrong diagnosis and received the wrong care. He was not improving. Every intervention had been attempted and every measure had been maxed. When his labs revealed his insulin levels were five times the normal range — levels consistent with an adult, not a newborn — the team continued the same course without further investigation. When I asked when his labs would be repeated to track that finding, I was told they would not be.
That was the moment I had a choice. I chose to rise.
I contacted the head of the NICU at a neighboring hospital where I had previously worked. I requested an endocrinology consult directly. Within hours, an endocrinologist reviewed his chart and said what no one had said in eight days: this was classic hyperinsulinism. With the correct diagnosis and treatment, she said, he would have been home in three days.
He was home shortly after.
That experience did not make me angry at the system. It made me clear-eyed about it. The system is imperfect — but it is the one we have, and every person within it deserves to access the care they are owed. What most people do not know is that when they feel defeated, when they have been told no, when every measure seems exhausted — there are still steps that can be taken. There is still a path forward.
Most people simply do not know it exists. That is why I do this work.
