Who is part of a medical team? Likely doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and therapists from various backgrounds. But what about translators, lawyers, income specialists? For many patients, financial, language, and legal barriers can make it difficult for them to access the care they need. In this episode, Asma will be meeting with Janet Rodriguez, an advocate and translator with a deep understanding of the medical system from a patient’s perspective. Together, they will be discussing her experiences receiving medical care, the visible and invisible barriers she had to overcome, and the people who don’t seem like obvious members of the healthcare team, including the patient.
