035 The Pitt Continued
from Cinemental Hosted by Marieve Herington
Is your wallet screaming every time you visit the doctor? You're not alone! In this continuing discussion of The Pitt, we're scratching our heads (and maybe pulling our hair out) over why healthcare is so poorly funded. Could a magical single-payer system be the answer to our prayers? We're breaking down the potential benefits of single-payer in plain English (no medical jargon guaranteed... mostly!). And let's be honest, navigating an emergency room can feel like auditioning for a dramatic TV show – where's Noah Wyle when you need him?! We're tackling the real issues and offering ideas on how to make emergency rooms better for everyone. Subscribe for your weekly dose of mental health and cinema (with a sprinkle of dark humor). Cinemental is a podcast where we discuss mental health in film and television. What did they get right? What did they get wrong? And what do you need to know about mental health.
