Melissa Shares Medical Insurance Advice With Cancer Patients (VIDEO)

Melissa:

If you don’t understand something make sure that you get it clarified. Make sure that you have somebody like a caregiver in the room with you when you are talking with a doctor writing things down so that you have information documented. I would definitely say you need to be your own health advocate. That’s extremely important because if you don’t, then you may just get lost in the health care system and not get the right treatment that you need.
