Less than one in seven American adults have the skills to manage their own healthcare1. It’s the reason:
- 45% of Americans don’t receive the recommended care they need2
- Half of chronically ill patients receive inadequate care3
- Half of patients don’t understand their doctor’s advice
- Studies show that poor health literacy drives up costs to the health-care system and worsens patient outcomes4
- Up to half the spending on healthcare could be avoided if patients received the right care at the right time
