Our Approach
We aren't bound by the rules that insurance companies, hospitals, and medical offices require their in-house patient advocates to to follow because we work directly with you, acting squarely in your interest. We can go farther to help you with your health, family, school, work, and beyond.
Our Story
Patient Providers was born of a need for support at the intersection of crisis intervention and benefits counseling several years ago, with the help of IMAlive.org. People in crisis have options. Find the options, resolve the crisis. Now we've made it our life's work to find those options. We believe that hope has power and suicide is preventable.
Why Hire An Advocate?
We act squarely in your interest to help you do more living and less fighting. Here are just a few examples of how we can help.
How does your situation affect you, and those around you? What supports do you need? What are you eligible for? What if you work but you're still behind on medical bills?
A navigator can help you understand your disease process, its impact on your lifestyle, and help you gain control of all the factors regarding your care. This includes accessing the best possible community life, supports at work and school, and beyond.
A client has been in and out of the emergency room with their disabled adult child, but the family physician won't take them seriously, and refers their daughter for a psychological evaluation.
An advocate can attend the next doctor visit, preparing questions, taking notes, and helping the family plan their next steps in finding their child's care.
Even the strongest self-advocates can tire out over time. Family members can fall into compassion fatigue. For chronic patients the paperwork never ends.
An advocate can help you exercise your rights wherever they aren't being protected. Whether it's at home, school, work, medical care, or in the community, you have a rights involving pain control, building access, education, communication, and more. Reclaim your time and energy by sharing the load.
