    About this ebook

    Have you ever visited a doctor with a nasty pain, or a scary-looking spot, and been told it was nothing to worry about, but you believed the doctor was wrong. Or maybe a healthcare practitioner gave you a one-size-fits-all recommendation, and you knew it didn't fit you. Was there a time when you had to forego an important medication because your insurance didn't cover it and you couldn't afford to pay for it out-of-pocket. Better Healthcare for Less: An Underground Guide to Advocacy offers 25 hands-on strategies for getting the healthcare you need and deserve, in a medical system where an uninformed patient can fall through the cracks.
