North Carolina: Watch Your Back

from Dual: The True Cost of Care Hosted by New Disabled South

In Episode 10 of Dual: The True Cost of Care, we meet a seventy-year-old person in North Carolina navigating co-pays, insurance claims, and nursing home care after a lifetime shaped by trauma, loss, and care decisions made without her consent. In a state where many decisions about their life and care were taken from them, this seventy-year-old’s story speaks to resilience and the realities of aging in the South. As we uncover the true cost of care in North Carolina, this episode asks a direct question: who are our care systems really protecting?
