Midlife straight talk alert! Hitting midlife means health scares become reality—for you or someone you love. Rebecca Bloom, lawyer and 26-year patient advocate, wrote "When Women Get Sick" after navigating her mother's breast cancer journey and helping thousands of other cancer patients do the same in a healthcare system that wasn't built for women. Look, no one wants to think about illness and disease. But when the sh*t hits the fan, you want to know how to get, afford, and keep the health care, insurance and workplace benefits needed to help you survive. We cover must-know info like—How do you choose insurance that protects what matters? What's your script when bills are wrong? How do you turn your doctor into an ally? What creative solutions exist beyond insurance? How do you appeal denied coverage successfully? Why should you "assume partnership" with HR? Listen in for a conversation on being a smarter patient—knowledge is power and peace of mind!
