A case of expedited care: Wellworth's timely intervention
Christopher, 63 years old, Manhattan
SITUATION
Christopher, a trustee at a New York City hospital, experienced an accident while traveling to Michigan, requiring urgent neurological consultation and an MRI due to the severity of his injuries. His wife, at home in New York City, was alerted of the situation and faced a sudden medical crisis.
As a trustee of a hospital board, Christopher has an extensive network within the medical field. However, despite his wife’s best efforts and numerous calls, she struggled to secure a quick appointment for her husband's consultation and MRI. Time is of the essence, and the lack of immediate access to healthcare services heightened her anxiety.
