What is health system navigation?

Health navigators help people get from place to place in a healthcare system that can often be difficult to understand. And in Canada, no two health systems are exactly alike!

And while our health navigators’ role is not to physically help people to get from point A to point B, their job is to help individuals navigate the twists and turns involved in managing a diagnosis – something many people learn isn’t as straightforward as it should be. 

Access to care, resources information and more can often be convoluted or lead to dead ends. When patients have trouble moving through the healthcare system, they sometimes give up, go without, or can even inadvertently be led astray. Any one of these scenarios can ultimately hinder a person’s ability to receive treatment or the care they need.

What do I get with a HealthNavigator subscription?

When you purchase a HealthNavigator one-year subscription for only $49.99, you’ll get unlimited access to Health Information Specialists by phone from 8:00am-8:00pm ET, Monday to Friday to assist you with health inquiries.
