How to Effectively Work with Your Healthcare Team

Susan Baumgaertel · October 13, 2024

Are you frustrated by the crazy medical arena these days? Do you struggle to get timely appointments, understand test results, or even access the electronic patient portal? 

This webinar recording is for you! 

In “How to Effectively Work with Your Healthcare Team,” I give a rundown on how to improve communication, garner respect, navigate disagreements, and strive for the coveted human touch when advocating for yourself. 

I also share tips and tricks to better access care and communicate with all members of your healthcare team about the following issues: 

✅  Getting an appointment 

✅  Your doctor is running late 

✅  Testing 

✅  Getting results 

✅  Seeing a specialist 

✅  Communication between physicians 

✅  Treatments 

✅  Pharmacy & medications 

✅  Insurance & billing 

✅  Relatives & advocates 

✅  Urgent care & after hours care 

✅  Online & portal navigation 

✅  Phone calls

We all need to be better advocates for ourselves and our loved ones when it comes to accessing good medical care.
