  • Much needed, well done!

    This podcast is the resource we have been waiting for! Getting good, understanding healthcare as a woman can be so hard - and now I feel so seen. The “after visit anxiety” is something I feel so hard. This is a salve for the nausea I feel getting ready to go to my doctor. I needed this.

Q: What types of costs are patients typically on the hook for paying, given their insurance plans?
