What does an advocate do?

Unfamiliar with the phrase “independent patient advocate? You are not alone!

An independent patient advocate is a professional who provides support and guidance to patients and their families as they navigate the complexities of the healthcare system. Additionally, all our advocates at HEARD for Life are licensed Registered Nurses.

We are here to be your personal guide and champion. We'll help you navigate the complexities of the medical world, eliminate confusion, and ensure you receive the best possible care.

We'll be by your side to:

  • Translate medical jargon into understandable terms

  • Research and explain treatment options so you can make informed decisions

  • Schedule, prepare for, and attend appointments and coordinate care between your providers

  • Review medical bills and appeal insurance denials

  • Advocate for your rights and ensure you receive appropriate care

  • Provide emotional support and connect you with valuable resources

With our expertise as registered nurses, and our dedication as your independent advocate, you'll feel empowered and confident throughout your healthcare journey.

“Kayla was a God sent blessing to my son while struggling to understand the healthcare system when his wife was hospitalized. She bridged the gap between the doctors and himself to help understand diagnosis and treatment. I cannot recommend her services, kindness and expertise enough when in a difficult health crisis situation.”

-Lisa D.

“I don’t know how I would have gotten through this situation with [my wife] if it hadn’t have been for Kayla. I mean she even asked the doctor about a test I didn’t even know existed, let alone that I should be asking about it”
