Those facing serious health challenges are often left to navigate the financial maze of healthcare alone, adding stress and worry that can prolong or prevent healing. A Financial Patient Advocate can help lift that burden. By sorting out the details of your medical bills, medical debt, and health insurance coverage, we allow you to focus on your recovery and the care of your loved ones. A Financial Patient Advocate only works for you. That means no healthcare provider or insurance company will influence our goal to get you the best care at the most affordable price.
How Can a Financial Patient Advocate Help me?
Our Financial Patient Advocates help clients navigate a variety of medical insurance and medical billing issues. For example:
- A client’s critical medication is deemed “medically unnecessary” and therefore denied by insurance. We can help with that.
- Another client receives an unexpected medical bill that doesn’t make sense. We can help with that.
- Do you simply not want to spend your valuable time comparing explanations of benefits, medical bills, and medical coding to ensure you are not being overcharged each month? We can help with that.
- Are you too sick to manage your medical bills and health insurance coverage alone, but don’t want family and friends to have to do it for you? We can help with that and many more billing issues.
