Next Steps After a Diagnosis - Web Video

AHRQ just released a short Web video called Next Steps After a Diagnosis, which features information from the recently released AHRQ publication of the same name to help patients who have been diagnosed with an illness to learn more about their condition and treatment options. It aims to help patients not only find information and resources but also deal with the various physical and emotional aspects of a diagnosis. The video provides individuals with important questions they should ask their doctor when they receive a diagnosis and information to help them understand their disease or condition, how it might be treated, and what they need to know before making treatment decisions.

The video is a great resource to share with those patients who may have difficulty reading English, or who prefer information delivered visually. The printed document that the video is based on is available in both English and Spanish.
