Testimonials
Cherie M., FL
"With breast cancer common in my family, I was told I needed a breast MRI after receiving irregular results on my annual mammogram. I contacted Health Advocate and inquired about going to the local teaching hospital in my area and mentioned my concern about out-of-pocket costs. My Personal Health Advocate did some research and found a smaller hospital 15 miles away that had similar quality scores and a lower cost structure than the teaching hospital. My test results were negative, and my costs were $500 lower."
Mary T., IL
"Following a surgery, I received a large bill from a non-participating anesthesia group and a Medical Bill SaverTM service rep negotiated an arrangement that reduced my bill by $1,245!"
Rob S., AL
"I was recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and needed support to help managing blood sugar testing, refilling medications as well as eating right and staying active. I called NurseLine and got connected with a “Diabetes Coach”. After a few sessions, my blood sugars are under control, I’m enjoying a healthy diet and try to squeeze in 30 minutes of walking 5 days a week."
