Welcome to Kentucky Health Advocacy

Our current healthcare system is designed for insurance companies, hospital systems, and efficiency metrics. Not for patients with complex medical conditions who need time, attention, and someone who actually coordinates care.

Right now, you get 15 minutes with your doctor. Maybe 30 if it’s a new appointment. Barely enough time to describe your symptoms, let alone investigate them thoroughly.

You're referred to multiple specialists, but no one tells you why or for what. Each specialist focuses on one piece of the puzzle, but nobody is looking at the whole picture.

Without medical knowledge, the system overwhelms you. You don't have hours to spend researching subspecialties, sitting on hold with insurance companies, or tracking down records from five different offices. You don't have the background to know which symptoms matter or what questions to ask.

That’s why Kentucky Health Advocacy exists

If you're here, you've probably experienced this:

You've been to multiple doctors. You've described your symptoms over and over. You've had tests that came back "normal" while you still feel awful. You've been told "it's probably stress" or "let's try this medication and see what happens." You've been referred to specialists without clear direction about who to see or why. You've fought with insurance companies over denied claims. You've spent hours on hold, researching online, and trying to coordinate care between providers who don't communicate with each other.

And through it all, you've probably thought: "Why is this so hard?"

The American healthcare system wasn't designed for patients—it was designed to be navigated by healthcare professionals.

The system assumes you know:

• The difference between a rheumatologist, an immunologist, and an oncologist.

• How to interpret your own lab results and imaging reports

• What questions to ask to get the care you actually need

• How to get your different doctors to actually talk to each other

The system also assumes you have:

• Hours to spend on hold with insurance companies and scheduling offices

• The energy to research specialists and coordinate appointments while feeling sick

• The confidence to advocate for yourself when providers dismiss your concerns

• The ability to translate medical jargon and understand complex treatment options

• A primary care doctor with time to coordinate everything

And here's what the system never accounts for:

You're exhausted. You're worried. You're trying to work, take care of your family, and keep your life together while also being your own case manager, insurance expert, medical records coordinator, and healthcare researcher.

It's not sustainable. And it's not fair.

This is why I’m here

To give you what the current healthcare system can't or won't provide.

To be the person who has time to dig deep into complex symptoms and actually investigate what's wrong.

To coordinate fragmented care so you're not managing five specialists who never talk to each other.

To help you navigate insurance barriers so denied coverage doesn't mean you give up on necessary treatment.

To take the administrative burden off your plate so you can focus your limited energy on healing, not on fighting bureaucracy.

That's what we do here.

How Kentucky Health Advocacy is Different

✓ 60-90 minute initial consultations so I have time to understand your complete story

✓ Whole-person evaluation that considers your physical, emotional, and social well-being

✓ Active care coordination including specialist referrals, appointment scheduling, and provider communication

✓ Ongoing partnership rather than episodic, disconnected appointments

✓ Transparent communication in language you can understand, not medical jargon

The Bottom Line

You're dealing with enough. You shouldn't also have to become an expert in healthcare navigation, insurance policies, and medical administration just to get the care you need.
