Say Ah!’s Health Care How-to’s are effective tools for navigating the healthcare system and advocating for high-quality care. These tools help millions of Americans who are managing complex care with limited support.
Why These Cards Matter
Older adults are often most affected by the complexity of our health care system. With over 80% managing a chronic condition and only 3% having proficient health literacy, it’s more important than ever to provide tools that support clear communication, informed decisions, and self-advocacy.
These tip cards are based on community research, created with input from patients, caregivers, and frontline professionals, and tested for clarity and usability.
