Getting started with Phoenix Health Compass
Welcome. Phoenix Health Compass helps you navigate the healthcare system with confidence — whether you are preparing for surgery, planning a recovery, or supporting a loved one.
What you can do here
- **Find trusted providers and hospitals.** Search verified directories with quality signals like patient safety scores, CMS star ratings, and disciplinary history.
- **Build your Health Binder.** A private, browser-based place to organize medications, questions, appointments, contacts, and equipment. Nothing is uploaded unless you choose to share it.
- **Get personalized recovery guidance.** Use the AI Recovery Planner to translate a discharge plan into a day-by-day checklist you can share with your family.
- **Ask Phoenix.** Our AI navigator answers your healthcare questions with plain language and links to authoritative sources — never diagnoses.
Recommended first steps
1. **Explore the Recovery Hub** to browse topics that match your situation. 2. **Create your Health Binder** and add anyone you help care for (spouse, parent, child). 3. **Save the providers or hospitals** you are considering so you can compare them side by side. 4. **Invite a caregiver** from the Family page if someone else needs access to your household plan.
If anything is unclear, use the Ask Phoenix button in the header — it is available on every page. For medical emergencies, always call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
