Did you know?
Research shows that at least 80 million Americans unwittingly suffer from healthcare illiteracy. The astounding annual consequence of this $108 to $238 billion epidemic wreaks havoc on our already strained healthcare system. Health illiteracy's ripple effect has an even more profound impact on fellow patients, families, and essentially everyone else involved in care.
Mission
The Patient Better Project’s mission is to enrich lives and better the healthcare experience by teaching people how to prevent medication misuse, escape unnecessary inpatient and outpatient care, avoid longer hospitalizations, and bypass superfluous trips to the emergency room.
