Elisabeth Rosenthal - An American Sickness
Manage episode 496059342 series 3617148
Today I talk with Doctor and NY Times Journalist, Elisabeth Rosenthal about her seminal book An American Sickness. Why does an arthritis injection cost $19K in one hospital and $90k in another? Why does the same insurance company pay both prices without push back? Our healthcare system is a funhouse of twisted logic that only makes sense when seen through the prism of unregulated profiteering. Dr. Rosenthal and I talk about how we got here and what we can do systematically and personally to make changes for the future.
