Prioritizing your health starts here. “Your primary care provider knows your health story better than anyone, and is your best resource for staying well and getting connected to specialized health services. Our offices are taking extra measures to keep you safe when you visit, and our new Care Advocacy service makes it easier than ever to traverse your health journey with personalized assistance.” — Lei Gong, MD, AdventHealth Medical Group Family Medicine at Celebration

We get it. The past year has been highly irregular. Many of us have gotten used to skipping formerly normal activities, from joining friends for a sporting event to hosting family on the holidays — and that’s been a smart strategy for staying well. But there’s one thing that’s definitely not something you should put off doing if you want to be healthy, and that’s seeing a medical professional when you need to. We talked to the experts at AdventHealth about why it’s important, easy — and safe! — to visit your medical provider today, and here’s what we found out. Find out what a Care Advocate can do for you. AdventHealth Medical Group’s primary care providers recently rolled out an all-new service for their patients called Care Advocacy. This service connects you to an expertly trained person who talks you through every step of your health care journey, whatever you might need. It’s like having a trusted friend with clinical expertise who works with your primary care physician to provide you with personalized, on-the-go assistance. Your Care Advocate can be your single point of contact for: • Scheduling requests • Administrative forms • Prescription refills • Referrals • Clinical questions To be eligible for this unique service, you need to be 18 years of age or older, have a primary care provider who is part of AdventHealth Medical Group, and have an AdventHealth account (which you can create at AdventHealth.com or via the AdventHealth app). Of course, the AdventHealth patient portal is also available as a self-service access point for all your health information, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
