If your partner or relative has a health insurance plan, clarify with them what is covered and what effect their heart failure diagnosis may have on the policy.

Speak with your partner or relative&#8217;s doctor about any questions you may have in this area or go directly to the healthcare insurer.<\/li>\n<li>If necessary, seek financial assistance for treatment costs. It\u2019s essential for heart failure patients to take all their medicines as prescribed. You can speak to your doctor or nurse about this or they may be able to refer you to a social services department that can help with or advise on any financial issues.<\/li>\n<li>Look at household finances. If the person with heart failure is the main breadwinner or contributes significantly to the household income, then you and your family may well have to make some financial adjustments if they are not able to work to the extent they were before. If your partner or relative has disability insurance you may be able to make a claim on this.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s possible that a diagnosis of heart failure may raise important financial concerns for you and your partner or relative.
