Sky-high insurance premiums. Surprise medical bills. Drug prices that keep going up. Why does healthcare in America cost so much — and how did we end up here?
Dr. Cedric Jamie Rutland, a critical care physician and BuzzRx Medical Advisor, joins Mosheh for a wide-ranging conversation that breaks down the real reasons healthcare is so expensive in the U.S. They explore how pharmacy benefit managers quietly shape what you pay, the unintended consequences of the Affordable Care Act, and why insurance coverage often feels arbitrary.
Then, a deep dive into GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy: how they work, what they actually do to your body, and whether they’re the future of weight loss and preventative care. Dr. Rutland also shares why having insurance — even if you’re healthy — still matters more than many realize.
