Health care in the United States can bankrupt you, demoralize you, and, sometimes, even kill you. Health economist David Smith knows this all too well. Growing up in a Mormon community in Utah, he lost his father, sister, and brother to the same deadly epidemic, and he’s devoted his career to exploring whether their deaths were preventable.
On The Cost of Care, a new podcast series from Lemonada Media supported by the Commonwealth Fund, Smith and a host of patients, medical experts, and policymakers reveal why the world’s wealthiest nation has one of the most expensive and worst-performing health care systems. And he and his guests discuss how we can fix U.S. health care, together.
