Tiffany Auvil: The No Bs Guide for Caregivers, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

The healthcare system wasn't built for you. It was built for billing codes, productivity metrics, and risk management, not the family member who suddenly has to figure out a diagnosis, an insurance plan, a hospital discharge, and a denial letter, all in the same week.

Tiffany Auvil knows. She spent twenty years inside the healthcare system as a registered nurse and healthcare leader. Then she became the family caregiver, navigating two cancers, two and a half years of treatment, and a clerical error that nearly cost her husband months of life he didn't have to spare.

The No BS Guide for Caregivers is the book she wishes someone had handed her on day one. Written for spouses, adult children, siblings, and partners caring for someone they love through serious illness, it cuts through the fluff and tells the truth about how the U. S. healthcare system actually works, and how to make it work for you.

Inside, readers will find practical, said-out-loud guidance on how to talk to doctors and actually be heard, what to do when insurance denies a claim, how to read a hospital bill and an EOB, when to ask about hospice, how to recognize when something feels off, and how to take care of yourself when nobody else is going to. The book also includes a complete toolbox of checklists, scripts, worksheets, and quick-reference guides that readers can pull out and use in the moments they need them most.

If you've been thrown into caregiving with no training, no map, and stakes you can't afford to get wrong, start here. You are not alone.
