What Sets You Apart?

Happy New Year!

Sometimes, there comes a point in our lives when we need to make a change.

It might be drastic. Or it might be as small as buckling our seatbelt before the car’s reminder bell goes off. 

Either way, this change is part of your story, and part of what sets you apart from the other 330 million US Citizens.

How are you, or your parents, or your grandparents going to get the care they need?

It’s called Healthcare. 

One Healthcare system, called Medicare, government insurance,  says it’s going to run out of money by 2026.

But what is more frightening is that baby boomers (you, your parents or your grandparents) need to make a change…

This is the year that baby boomers meet the halfway mark. (born between 1946-1964)

This is the year that 50% of baby boomers are now on Medicare and 50% are not. 

Do you know what this means for you?

Our government insurance, Medicare is cutting out or denying medical care to you and those you care about.

LET’S DO TRUE STORYTIME!

I had a patient come in with a cough.  After 2 different antibiotics, he was no better. 

He is 70 and could not remember when he last had a chest x-ray so I ordered one. 

The chest x-ray showed cancer.

When I talked to a Medicare physician (hired by a health care company to distribute medical care for only Medicare patients) about this frightening and fatal diagnosis and how upset I was that no one caught this sooner, his reply was simple…

“We are told not to find things…it’s an added expense to the system. I would have just given him another antibiotic and sent him on his way or I would be fired.”

Make a change, ask the right questions, find the right doctor. 

In my next message… I’ll show you how….

About the Author

Do you feel frustrated with your medical care? Do doctors spend 5 minutes with you, push you out of the office, with you wondering what's going to happen? Does your insurance deny paying? You're not alone. I'm frustrated, too. This is a growing trend in healthcare. Having seen pre-insurance medicine (yes, my dad was an old country doctor), I grew up watching him spend time with his patients, giving them the best care he had to offer. I saw families trust him to help them through hospitalizations and the next crisis. As a patient advocate, my job is to see that you get the right diagnosis, the right treatment plans, and the right supplies and education to make good decisions about your health. More importantly, I will teach you the tricks of the healthcare trade. We need more healthcare consumer protection, especially for chronic illnesses like diabetes. This is what I am passionate about. I make it happen every day with thousands of patients who now know what I know about beating the healthcare system and getting the best patient care...Patient Best.
