Kate Gallagher works with the Patient Advocate Foundation to learn what issues patients face, how they deal with these, issues, what gaps exist in accessing equitable health care and what impact does financial toxicity have on people’s live. Kate and her colleagues provide the information critical to understanding both individual experience and bringing about important improvements to our health care system.
