Homelessness has been rising in the U.S., and when people end up on the street, their health is at risk. This week on Health Wanted, host Laurel Bristow and guest Kelly Doran, MD, MHS, talk about housing as health care and the policies that can help lift people out of poverty.

In the Q&A, Bristow addresses timely questions on prescription drug costs, Covid vaccine availability, and Hydroxyapatite before a look at the drop in overdose-related deaths for the Sick of the Week.
