About Advocacy Services

The unfortunate truth is that you do need an advocate in the medical system. Like any industry, mistakes can be made. When a mistake is made in the healthcare industry, there can be severe consequences both for your health and finances. Advocacy services are beneficial when:

• • You need help with medical bills.
  • You are in charge of a loved one’s care.
  • You want to explore different treatment options.
  • A recent diagnosis requires a second opinion.
  • You want to ensure safety during an upcoming hospital stay.
  • You are concerned about a family member’s care.

Navigating the complicated world of healthcare is challenging and time-consuming. For many people, they are their own advocates as they follow up with doctors, work with insurance, and ensure proper care. While difficult on a small scale, it becomes overwhelming when you are advocating for a loved one or dealing with a chronic, serious illness.

At Discover Health, we find insurance is one of the more intimidating aspects of healthcare. It’s incredibly stressful to receive a bill for hundreds or thousands of dollars and time-consuming to call insurance and your doctor to work it out. Discover Health understands the ins and outs of insurance and how claims are handled. We work with your insurance and your doctor to make sure your bills are accurate.

Who Needs Advocacy Services?

It’s the unfortunate truth that sick and vulnerable people can get lost in the medical system. Many families turn to medical advocacy services for dependent loved ones who have disabilities or elder family members. It can already feel draining and nerve-wracking to be responsible for the care of this person, especially when healthcare is a big part of their quality of life. A medical advocate steps in to ensure that person is receiving the necessary care and insurance is handled properly, taking that pressure off of you.

Advocates also help independent individuals who are deep in the medical system due to a chronic illness, a recent diagnosis, or an extensive treatment plan. We work with you, your doctor, your insurance, and your pharmacist to make certain you are receiving the correct care.
