Webinar: Medical Advocacy & Care Coordination

Webinar: Medical Advocacy & Care Coordination

Presented By CaringTide Disability Planning

This session equips caregivers of children with disabilities and self-advocates to navigate the healthcare system with confidence. Medical advocacy means ensuring you or your child's needs, rights, and goals guide every decision, from routine appointments to hospital stays. Attendees will learn how to communicate effectively with providers, organize medical information, understand diagnoses and treatment options, and prepare for appointments. The session also covers building a care team, navigating insurance denials and appeals, advocating during hospitalizations, and knowing when to invoke your child's legal rights. Whether you are just starting your advocacy journey or looking to sharpen your skills, this session provides the tools and language to make sure your child is heard and receiving the care they deserve.
