WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND

Our healthcare system has become a long and winding road, full of bumps, pot 
holes and unexpected turns. Many Americans find, for example, that Medicare and 
insurance plans are complicated and confusing; hospitals and staff can feel 
cold and intimidating; communication between professionals and with the patient 
and their loved ones is fragmented; and treatment options and follow-up care 
are inadequately explained. Navigating this unpredictable terrain can be 
exhausting, even treacherous, especially for those who have not planned well 
ahead of time and/or are trying to find their way alone when ill or hurt.

With a good road map, a reliable set of tools, good communication skills and a 
trustworthy companion, however, the road may still be bumpy but it will be much 
more manageable than it would without this preparation. This webinar is 
designed to help participants prepare for this inevitable journey into the 
health care system, whether for yourself or someone close to you. 

NOTE:  You MUST register in advance for the webinar via Zoom.us

This FREE webinar is being supported and underwritten by Janice Blanchard,

Hope to “see” you on the webinar!
