What is a Patient Advocate?

Patient advocates are independent experts who work for you and your family. They'll help your young adult child navigate healthcare or coverage and make sure they get what they need. 

Get Peace of Mind Knowing You're Prepared

When your child turns 18, you can't legally get involved in their care without their permission. Most young adults aren't ready to manage on their own, but many won't ask their parents for help.

That's where we come in.

With our Healthy Launch package, we'll help you make sure your family is prepared for any medical or mental health issues that could arise.

What We Can Do For You and Your Student

How your advocate can help:

We do NOT give advice. When it comes to decision-making, you, your child, and their medical team know best. While we can help students identify the factors to consider in their decisions, we do not share our own opinions. Our role is to empower patients to make the right decisions for themselves.
