Health:Further

20 - Making Healthcare Better Means Fixing Our Trust Problem


Listen Later

In episode 20 of Health:Further, we'll be covering some interesting topics, including:
  • Walgreens teaming up with Pearl Health, a primary care enablement tech company, to expand its efforts in value-based care.
  • The steep rise in health insurance costs, with experts predicting the biggest increase in over a decade, which could have a major impact on businesses and their employees in 2024.
  • An advisory panel to the FDA unanimously agreed that a common decongestant ingredient found in many over-the-counter cold medicines is actually ineffective. This could potentially lead to a ban on the ingredient phenylephrine and the removal of hundreds of products from store shelves.

And many more! Please check out our Episode Resources below:
