“When I needed help finding health insurance to cover my hospital bill, I turned to NADAP, and they were a beacon of hope. I scheduled an appointment, gave my information to a Navigator, and – the next thing I know – there’s a letter and a card in the mail. The process could not have been easier.”
– Karen, Client
