Why Should I Become a Patient Member?

Our organization represents a partnership between patients and healthcare providers, focused on protecting the sanctity of the doctor-patient relationship as the foundation of healthcare.

Today's healthcare system has become too confusing and stressful for both patients and doctors. We’re here to help guide you through it.

Sadly, the anxiety of having a medical problem these days is often not the illness, but navigating through the “big business” insurance system. Instead of focusing on finding the best doctors to get better and be healthy, we struggle with phone calls and stare at the computer screen trying to understand our narrowed network insurance benefits and pharmaceutical plans.

The prior authorizations for procedures and surgeries you need are harder to obtain, keeping your medical records and referrals organized for each doctor is challenging, and the continually changing healthcare laws are confusing. We are all lost in the insurance and hospital industry jargon and the myriad of obstacles which are designed to deter us and to maximize profits, instead of focusing on our patients' health.

The New Jersey Doctor-Patient Alliance is now putting the patients and doctors back in the driver's seat by providing useful resources and information to help guide you through this complex and ever-changing environment.
