Curing America's Unpayable Trillion Dollar Healthcare Debt

In this edition of The Onco’Zine Brief Peter Hofland talks with Robert Goff about Medical Debt. Goff is one of the co-authors of a new book (“End Medical Debt: Curing America’s $1 Trillion Unpayable Healthcare Debt”) about the subject. He co-authored the book with Jerry Ashton and Craig Antico. In today's show Hofland and Goff talk about the problem of medical debt and how we got here. They talk about the impossibility of making insurance coverage broad and affordable when the cost of medical services is so prohibitive. And finally, they talk about how "RIP Medical Debt," the organization he represents, helps to empower donors to forgive the billions in oppressive medical debt - while, at the same time, helping people to benefit from medical debt relief.
