À PROPOS DE CET ÉPISODE
This time on Code WACK!
Got health insurance, but still can't get the care you need? Ever spent hours on hold, battling claim denials, and jumping through hoops just to get the care you already paid for with your insurance premiums?
What does it say about our healthcare system when getting treatment depends not just on your medical needs, but also how much time, money, and energy you can dedicate to fighting for it?
In her new book, Coverage Denied: How Health Insurers Drive Inequality in the United States, Miranda Yaver points out that having insurance and actually being able to use it are often two very different things.
This is the second of two episodes with Miranda Yaver.
