The Conversation About Healthcare Advocacy

The healthcare system can be difficult to navigate — between the technical terms, the insurance and the after care for patients. Healthcare advocates offer support as they guide you down the path to making the best decisions for you.

Dianne provides examples of how healthcare advocates can be a benefit to anyone at any point in their life.

Dianne discusses:

• The future of healthcare advocates
