Reducing the financial burden on patients can indirectly benefit nurses by fostering a more stable healthcare environment:
1. Transparent Pricing: Healthcare institutions should provide transparent pricing for services to help patients understand their financial responsibilities. 2. Payment Plans and Financial Assistance: Offering flexible payment plans and financial assistance programs can help patients manage their healthcare expenses without resorting to emergency measures. 3. Preventive Care: Encouraging preventive care and providing education on health maintenance can reduce the need for costly treatments and hospitalizations.
