Resources and Roadblocks in Healthcare
As patients navigating the healthcare system, I think we are oftentimes more aware of cracks in the system than those who make administrative decisions. We know what areas are lacking and where more resources are needed because we’ve experienced what it’s like to not have them.
In your healthcare/chronic illness experience, what have some of these roadblocks been? If you could provide tips to those in management, your clinic, or to an insurance company, what would you tell them? In an imaginary perfect world, what resources would you like to have access to that don’t exist currently?

Oof, this is a great question. There’s so many unnecessary hurdles within our healthcare system. One that comes to mind are prior authorizations. I don’t know if I have any tips, but moreso I wish that a doctor’s order would override what is deemed medically necessary by insurance companies!
