Are We The Only Ones

Mad About Healthcare


Listen Later

You shouldn’t have to be lucky to survive the American healthcare system. And yet, too often, that’s exactly what it takes.

Through lived experience, sharp analysis, and the kind of unfiltered honesty that only two women who've navigated the system firsthand can offer, Kathy Wilson and Rai Lithiluxai connect the dots between everyday indignities and the systems that keep them in place,

This conversation spans stillbirth, Medicaid, private insurance bureaucracy, and the emotional labor of being a woman in a healthcare system built by and for men. From New York to Ohio, from waiting room hierarchies to medical billing negotiations, the stories are personal but the problem is political.

They break down:

* Access to the American healthcare system

* What it takes to negotiate a $50,000 medical bill down to something survivable

* Why maternal care differs wildly, even within the same zip code

* How grief, pregnancy loss, and reproductive healthcare are still taboo

Kathy and Rai want to hear from you and are wondering, are we the only ones who are mad about healthcare?
