Welcome to MyHealthIndependence.com. Visiting this website is the first step on your road to health independence. The checklists on this site are intended to assist you in obtaining the best possible medical care.
There are a number of factors that contribute to suboptimal care for patients today. Time pressures may prevent you and your doctors or other health care providers from spending enough time with each other. Anxiety or confusion may make it difficult for you to communicate effectively with your doctor and get the maximum benefit from your limited time together. If you can maximize this time, you may be able to receive better health care with better results, and your long-term out of pocket costs may be lower as well.
You may need to work with more than one healthcare provider to meet all your health goals. Using the checklists here, you can participate more effectively in your own treatment and preventive care. We hope the information provided here will support your efforts to live a healthier, happier, wealthier and more fulfilling life.
