Another View on Health - Medicare and Medicaid

Each 4th Friday of the month, Another View spends time talking about health issues of particular interest to the African American community. On the next program, we talk about Medicare and Medicaid - two federally funded health insurance programs with two very different outcomes. What is the responsibility of government and the patient when it comes to lowering health care costs? How do these programs fit into the Affordable Healthcare Act? Do we need to continue both programs? Join us for a robust discussion on the pros and cons of Medicare and Medicaid with our resident health expert, Dr. Keith Newby. Plus, Lisa Godley profiles a school principal and a documentary producer, both of whom have ties to Norfolk and are a part of the PBS documentary, 180 Days: A Year Inside an American High School. It's all on Another View, Friday, March 22 at noon on 89.5 WHRV-FM or stream us at whrv.org.
