Maneuvering the healthcare system is a challenge for the majority of people. The Institute for Healthcare Advancement (IHA) said that “over 80 million U.S. adults have trouble understanding information from their healthcare provider.” This inequity can lead to decreased preventative care visits and lack of understanding in diagnosis and / or medication management, which leads to increased hospitalizations and healthcare costs.
