If you receive care at a non-profit hospital, you must be offered financial assistance if you cannot afford to pay. If you participate in a government program, such as Medicaid or Medicare, those programs' websites can offer guidance about coverage for the care you need.
Your hospital may also have a patient advocate on staff who can help guide you through your coverage or your financial assistance options. You can also find your own guide through the Patient Advocate Foundation.

It is important to remember that you are a partner with your Interventional Cardiology Specialist as you find the right treatment plan for you. You have a voice in your healthcare decisions, and it is important to communicate your goals and preferences clearly to get the highest quality of care.
Ways to advocate for yourself during appointments include: preparing questions in advance to ask your doctor, bringing someone with you to listen and take notes, asking your Interventional Cardiology Specialist to clarify when you do not understand something, and being honest when you have concerns.
If you are unsure about a recommended treatment, tell your doctor you want to seek a second opinion. A quality Interventional Cardiology Specialist will not take offense at this; rather, a good doctor wants to get as much information as possible to make the right treatment choice. If your Interventional Cardiology Specialist does question your interest in a second opinion, it may be a sign that another Interventional Cardiology Specialist may be a better fit for you.
