Healthcare Nightmares with Monica Bryant

Cancer has always seemed like such a scary thing to talk about. As if just consuming content about it would somehow make me more likely to develop it. Now obviously that thought is absurd, but what is WAY crazier is how our lives can be dictated by for profit companies after we do get a cancer diagnosis. My guest today is Monica Bryant. Monica is a lawyer and ex-congress employee who now focuses her time and energy on being a Cancer Rights  Attorney and Co-Founder of the non-profit "Triage Cancer". She's here today to show us just how little the we understand about a system we put our money and trust into. Sorry to the international audience that this is quite United States centered, but I think you'll actually enjoy it more after hearing all the issues you don't have to deal with. I told you it would be a different kind of spooky for Halloween! Let's learn our rights in this almost cartoonish healthcare system!
