The Savvy Patient Guide is a Skill to help you become a more knowledgeable and confident patient. It focuses on three main topics: 1. A Patient’s Rights and Responsibilities, 2. Medical Terminology and 3. Tips For A Medical Visit. Get started by asking for one of these. So,
To hear Patient’s Rights and Responsibilities as put forth by the American Medical Association, say, “Tell me about a patient’s Rights and Responsibilities,” To learn more about the language of medicine, say, “Coach me about Medical Terminology,” and
To hear Medical Tips for an office visit, say, “Tell me some Office Visit Tips.” The purpose of this Skill is not to provide medical advice. The user of the Skill should consult with their physician or other healthcare providers regarding any questions they may have about their healthcare. Resource Attribution:
