In this episode, Dr. Matthew Weiner takes a bold look at the future of healthcare — predicting that by 2030, the current U.S. healthcare payment system could collapse under its own weight.

But instead of doom and gloom, he explores why this shift might actually improve patient care, reduce costs, and finally force the system to prioritize quality over profit.

You’ll learn:

  • Why hospitals can profit more from complications than success
  • How the current model discourages innovation and improvement
  • What a better, more effective system might look like
  • And how this could impact patients using GLP-1s, bariatric surgery, and other obesity treatments

If you’ve ever wondered why healthcare feels broken — and what it might take to fix it — this episode is for you.
