Today we're talking about how medical financial literacy is vital for you to maintain financial stability throughout your life here in the US in celebration of Financial Literacy Month.
Medical financial literacy is becoming increasingly important as healthcare costs rise. According to a recent study, nearly 60% of Americans have struggled to pay medical bills, and one-fifth have delayed or skipped needed care due to cost.
Medical financial literacy can assist you in avoiding financial difficulties associated with healthcare. It can also assist you in making educated decisions about your health and well-being.
Virgie Bright Ellington, MD is joining me today to discuss the tools you need to stop spending money you don’t owe and save yourself from becoming a victim of a predatory healthcare system.
Dr. Virgie is a long-time internal medicine physician and medical billing expert, but it wasn’t until she became a cancer patient facing incredibly high and unfair medical bills that she took her insider industry knowledge and put it to work.
In her upcoming book, What Your Doctor Wants You to Know to CRUSH MEDICAL DEBT, Dr. Virgie shares her secrets to help individuals, families, and military veterans protect themselves against America’s #1 cause of debt and bankruptcy – medical bills.
Listen to our podcast NOW and learn how to crush your medical debt.
