I transform caregiver strain into organizational strength through empowering their family caregivers. My Gram’s healthcare and my Mom's caregiving situation is the inspiration for PACE - Patient Advocacy At PACE, women affected by chronic illness are transformed into a Powerful Patient Partner that confidently manages the care for yourself and your loved ones. Women will feel valued and empowered
in your care & treatment. I'm Tiffany Matthews, founder & CEO of PACE. I am a board certified patient advocate, consultant and educator. I'm also a former social worker & healthcare insider. I am a patient and a parent of a child with chronic illness. P4 teaches women to be in charge of their own care through increased health literacy, patient advocacy methods and learning to advocate for themselves and their loved ones in the system. PACE is a patient advocacy firm in the Greater Philadelphia region and serves clients virtually throughout the United States. Patient advocacy is the practice of championing the cause for a patient's wants and needs during their healthcare journey. The patient is first. Our broken system gives rise to the need of the patient advocate. Patients can confidently manage their healthcare if they learn the skills and the mindset & behavior changes they need to know. You can get that here at PACE. Healthcare is a business - we are customers. P4 empowers women with the skills that can change, even save, their lives.

My family had been pressured for quick decisions about her life-or-death to keep with the "profits over patients” principle our healthcare system embraces. My family was bombarded with information and pressured to make serious life-or-death decisions quickly - when what we wanted to do focus on Gram. High-pressure decisions, overwhelm with information - that is the business of healthcare. Sadly, we have a payer system that supports "profits before patients."
