In America today, patients can shop for almost everything—except healthcare. Yet
healthcare is one of the most important and expensive decisions families make, and it
remains one of the most confusing marketplaces in our country. Patients deserve to
understand pricing, choices, and the incentives that influence medical decisions. We
The Patient is a grassroots movement dedicated to helping families understand the
healthcare marketplace and restoring the patient-physician relationship!
4E Path to Patient Power
Educate
Help patients understand how the healthcare marketplace works — including pricing, incentives, and the forces influencing medical decisions. 4E Path to Patient Power Empower
Empower
When patients understand the system, they gain the power to ask three simple questions:
How much does it cost?
Do I need this?
Is this decision based solely on the physician–patient relationship?
Engage
Patients can transform healthcare by joining the movement, sharing their stories, educating others, and making informed healthcare decisions for their families.
Encourage
By supporting one another, patients, physicians, employers, and communities can work together to restore transparency and trust in healthcare because they now understand the marketplace.
