Talking to Your Doctor

Do your employees know how to talk to their doctor?

It could help them take charge of their health and save money.

Health care can be complicated and even confusing. The best way for consumers to avoid being overwhelmed by uncertainty is to become health care literate. This doesn't just mean learning big words, it also means knowing how to talk to doctors so you have a better understanding of how to follow recommendations, take medications correctly and take charge of your health.

"When people don't understand the information given to them by their doctors, they are more likely to be in poor health," says Danielle Freeman, Network Education Representative. "That is why it is important for everyone to know how to talk to their doctor."

Consumers who talk openly with their doctor and get the most from their appointments may also save money for their health plan and reduce their out-of-pocket costs. By being engaged and more proactive with their health, your employees can avoid issues that are more complex and the need for additional care.
