Dr. Dan Morhaim and I provide an episode of our series from Defining Health Equity we call, “Dr. Dan from Inside the ER.”  Dr. Dan is virtually (6) guests in one – 40 years of front-line clinical experience, including as an emergency room physician – cannot get more frontline than that, healthcare entrepreneur, a former 24-year state legislator, author, national speaker, and professor.
 
In this episode we provide data around clinical outcomes demonstrating what happens when the "bottom line" supercedes clinical care.   Be sure to "fact-check" us as is our policy to cite the data, not the "opinions:"
