The Patient Advocate Certification Board

The Patient Advocate Certification Board (PACB) is an organization that certifies individuals who work as patient advocates. Patient advocates help patients navigate the healthcare system, understand their rights, and make informed decisions about their care. The PACB sets standards for education and experience in this field, ensuring that certified advocates are knowledgeable and skilled. By earning certification, advocates demonstrate their commitment to helping patients receive the best care possible and through ethical practices, ultimately enhancing the patient experience and quality of healthcare overall.
