San Diego attorney Kenneth VanDerBeck combines his legal expertise and medical background to advocate for fair healthcare access, raising awareness of critical gaps in the system.
SAN DIEGO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / November 28, 2024 / Attorney Kenneth VanDerBeck, a respected advocate for healthcare rights, is raising awareness about the challenges many Americans face in accessing essential healthcare services. With a unique background in law, medicine, and firefighting, VanDerBeck brings a compassionate approach to legal practice, focusing on justice and community support. He emphasizes the need for stronger legal protections for patients and underserved communities, particularly as 27.5 million Americans remain uninsured, according to recent census data.
"Access to healthcare should be a right, not a privilege," VanDerBeck states. "When people have to choose between medical treatment and basic living expenses, it's clear that something is deeply wrong. I want to use my legal skills to help bridge this gap, ensuring that everyone has the support they need."
VanDerBeck's experience in the medical field has given him unique insights into healthcare-related legal cases, enabling him to understand clients' medical and ethical concerns with empathy and depth. Through his volunteer work with the Red Cross and Newbreak Church, VanDerBeck has seen firsthand how healthcare barriers impact communities.
"It's heartbreaking to see patients who are overwhelmed by the cost of healthcare and lack access to legal advice," VanDerBeck explains. "Studies show that nearly 40% of adults in the U.S. avoid seeking treatment due to financial constraints. This issue affects not only individuals but entire communities, and it's something we urgently need to address."
To encourage change, VanDerBeck advocates for increased resources, community support, and accessible legal assistance for those navigating complex healthcare issues. He is committed to educating the public about their rights and encouraging other attorneys to support this cause, believing that collective action can lead to meaningful reform,
"Knowledge is power," says VanDerBeck. "When people understand their rights, they're better equipped to advocate for themselves. My goal is to empower patients with both knowledge and legal support, creating a safer and more just healthcare system."
