Prepared Patient is a series of monthly print and eNewsletters intended to help Americans participate more fully in their health care. Each month The Prepared Patient explores a new topic to prepare readers for productive encounters with the health care system: whether understanding the need for check-ups, to managing their own chronic diseases, to getting the most value from doctor-patient interactions.
