Episode Synopsis

For many cancer survivors, the hardest part comes long after treatment ends. Follow-up surgeries, complications and insurance hurdles can resurface years later — and the financial and emotional toll can feel never-ending. In this episode we meet Chris, a breast cancer survivor who faced another obstacle when her trusted surgeon stopped accepting insurance just before a critical follow-up surgery. Suddenly she was on her own to manage complex claims, mounting bills and endless paperwork. That’s when Quantum Health Care Coordinator Bobbie Cornwell stepped in, guiding Chris through every step.
