Patient Advocates

Our Certified Patient Advocates provide support for those patients that have difficulty obtaining, understanding, and using meaningful information needed to make sound healthcare choices.

Specialists are patient advocates that help patients identify the information necessary to:

  • Interpret medical and related financial documents
  • Prepare insurance appeals and fight denials
  • Choose between care alternatives
  • Interact with providers, insurance companies, and benefit plan managers
  • Protect patient interests under the Patient Bill of Rights

Develop your own business by helping patients manage their healthcare experience. As an advocate you could be self employed, work from home, control your schedule, and still be that patient advocate.
