Episode 1 - Medical School Part I: Hurricane Katrina & Backroom Politics
Dive into the crumbling American healthcare system and take a look under the (very dusty) rug of its infrastructure.
What is happening in our healthcare system? Why is it failing? Who is profiting from it? What can we do to enact change to make it better?
Join cohosts internal medicine physician, Doctor Elisha Yaghmai, M.D., & independent journalist, Jo O’Hanlon, as they search for answers.
In this episode, they discuss the current state of the healthcare system in the United States (especially in-light of the Covid-19 pandemic) and the start of Elisha’s story of discovering the brokenness of the U.S. healthcare system.
The first time Elisha saw the cracks of the system was as a medical school student in New Orleans when Hurricane Katrina hit. His university was more concerned with tuition retention than helping stranded students resume their education and training, and backroom politics began to take a toll.
