Championships R Us is the Official Sponsor of National Patient Rights Week!

Undeniably, every single American, at one time or another, will be treated by a medical professional. Whether it’s during childbirth, death or the major/minor illnesses that happen in between; medical care is a natural part of life. Unfortunately, medical error is the 4th leading cause of death. Prior to COVID, medical error was the 3rd leading cause of death. Americans have had serious issues with their medical care way before COVID existed. Yearly, over 12 million adults receive some sort of misdiagnosis. These costly mistakes contribute to about 10% of unnecessary patient deaths.

Polling shows that most Americans don’t even know that they have patient rights. Most people have heard of HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act). These same citizens are surprised to know that their patient rights extend far beyond HiPAA. These rights are guaranteed to all as they are written into law. National Patient Rights Week was founded in 2021 by America’s #1 Patient Advocate Coach & author of The Dumb Patient & The Dumb Patient Meets COVID, Taajah M. Phenezy. National Patient Rights Week is strategically celebrated May 13-19. It falls behind National Hospital Week and National Nurses Week.

The purpose of National Patient Rights Week is to educate Americans so we can save lives. Studies have routinely shown that when a patient is knowledgeable and informed in making decisions with their medical care, the results are better for hospitals, physicians, nurses and patients. Everyone wins!
