“Appointments, records, insurance queries and follow-ups can take time and attention during illness or recovery. We help bring structure and continuity to these practical details, so patients and families can focus on health, recovery and each other.”

Alison founded the Patient & Family Journey Support service after 15 years in healthcare operations and administration across the UAE, USA and Europe.

FAQs

Common questions

See all FAQs
Is AA Health Central a clinic or medical provider?

No. AAHC is an independent, non-clinical service. We don’t diagnose, prescribe or give treatment advice. We help you navigate, organise and coordinate care with your own doctors and healthcare providers.

Who usually contacts you: patients or families?

Both. Many enquiries come from family members: adult children supporting a parent, spouses, or relatives living overseas. We can work with a designated family contact, with the patient’s authorisation.

What happens in the first conversation?

It is a free call of 15–30 minutes. We listen to your situation and needs, and confirm whether AAHC is the right fit. We don’t review records or make recommendations at this stage.

Do I need an assessment before support begins?

A paid, non-clinical assessment may be required for complex, project-based or ongoing support. It helps us understand your coordination needs and develop a written support plan. Straightforward, one-off requests may not require an assessment. We’ll explain what is needed during the introductory conversation.
