How can a Private Patient Advocate benefit Employers - The Cost of a Private Patient Advocate


As Alabama health insurance costs continue to rise with higher deductibles, employees are having to bear more responsibility for managing their health care. As a private patient advocate, Hughes Advocacy, can assist employees with navigating the healthcare maze, understanding the options available, and managing their efforts appropriately. It can be a complicated and stressful process for the employee and their family. To help Alabama employees adjust to these increased responsibilities, employers can offer private patient advocacy services. Some of the benefits of having an advocate for your employer include better employee focus and productivity, healthier and less stressed employees, and lowering costs.

If an employer benefit offer is not available to you at the moment, it is an out of pocket expense and can range anywhere between $75 to $450 an hour depending on the services and location. Companies in Alabama can reach out to their local advocate, Hughes Advocacy, to inquire further about this service.
