Patient Advocate Certification Board (PACB)

The Patient Advocate Certification Board (PACB) is an organization that certifies professionals who support and guide patients through healthcare systems. These certified advocates help individuals understand medical options, advocate for their needs, and navigate complex healthcare environments. Certification ensures that advocates possess the necessary knowledge, skills, and ethical standards to provide quality support. The PACB aims to professionalize patient advocacy, ultimately improving patient experiences, outcomes, and satisfaction by establishing recognized qualifications for advocates.
