Episode 2: “Falling Through the Cracks” 

In Episode 2 of Dual: The True Cost of Care, we focus on Jen in Kentucky, who, like millions of people living with disabilities across the South, must navigate the complex and often contradictory rules of Medicare and Medicaid to access basic care.

Question for you: How do you define accessible, equitable health care?

Join us next week for Episode 3, where we will visit Michael in South Carolina.
