NPR interview on racial disparities and Medicaid expansion
Listen to this episode of The Full Story from NPR station WSHU, where I join the conversation for a live interview with Ron Ropiak. Skip straight to the heart of our chat, recorded minutes 29 through 43, in this lively, thought-provoking talk show.
Issues in Healthcare
Religious exemptions for the measles vaccine, flare-ups of sexually transmitted diseases, and a lack of equity in Medicaid coverage for cancer treatment…We explore a spectrum of health concerns in our area, with guests:
- Michael Gormley, Albany reporter, Newsday
- Shay Ingersoll, disease intervention specialist, and Lynn Sosa, M.D., deputy state epidemiologist and TB/STD control programs coordinator, Connecticut Department of Public Health
- Blythe Adamson, Ph.D., MPH, health economist, Flatiron Health, and lead author of a Yale study on Medicaid expansion and equity in cancer care
Thank you, staff at The Full Story, for inviting me to join you live.
