Each podcast will explore a different aspect of health or health care. Or a different country’s health care system as it compares to ours in the US. As a veteran reporter - I want to know why so many Americans still don’t have access to the comprehensive health care so normal in other advanced countries? How are health systems dealing with higher costs and changing demographics? And if, after the disastrous response to COVID 19, the US and other nations are now prepared for another major public health crisis.","podcastLogo":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/imglogo/image-logo/15203272/Conversations.jpg","podcastShareLogo":"https://d2bwo9zemjwxh5.cloudfront.net/image-logo/15203272/Conversations_1200x628.jpg?s=a3582accc9dad88a99aea9b83f3fee7d&e=jpg","podcastUrl":"https://stephanishelton.podbean.com","podcastCanSearched":true,"feedUrl":"https://feed.podbean.com/stephanishelton/feed.xml","theme":"elegant","podcastDeepLink":"https://www.podbean.com/pw/pbblog-7h46b-e7fbc8?from=usersite","removePodbeanBranding":"no","brandingLogo":null,"timeZone":{"timeZoneId":15,"gmtAdjustment":"GMT-05:00","useDaylightTime":1,"value":-5,"text":"(GMT-05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada)","daylightStartTime":"Second Sunday Of March +2 Hours","daylightEndTime":"First Sunday Of November +2 Hours","timezone":"America/New_York"},"podcastDownloads":null,"totalEpisodes":35,"showComments":true,"iOSAppDownloadLink":null,"customizeCssUrl":null,"androidAppDownloadLink":null,"showPostShare":true,"showLike":true,"author":"Stephani Shelton","enableEngagementStats":true,"shareEmbedLink":"https://admin5.podbean.com/embed.html?id=pbblog-7h46b-e7fbc8-playlist","language":"en","sensitivitySessionExpireTime":86400,"podcastApps":[{"name":"Apple Podcasts","link":"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/conversations-on-health-how-we-get-there-with-stephani-shelton/id1649241707","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/apple-podcast.png","title":null},{"name":"Podbean App","link":"https://www.podbean.com/pw/pbblog-7h46b-e7fbc8?from=usersite","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/podbean-app.png","title":null},{"name":"Spotify","link":"https://open.spotify.com/show/0dU2YbzJBMbxP2Ue6FTa4R","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/spotify.png","title":null},{"name":"Amazon Music","link":"https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/9c933737-f7ab-4030-91a0-dfb44f333b54","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/AmazonMusic.png","title":null},{"name":"TuneIn + Alexa","link":"https://tunein.com/podcasts/Health--Wellness-Podcasts/Conversations-on-Health-How-We-Get-There---with-S-p2141899/","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/tunein.png","title":null},{"name":"iHeartRadio","link":"https://iheart.com/podcast/106256672","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/iHeartRadio.png","title":null},{"name":"Podchaser","link":"https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/conversations-on-health-how-we-4928450","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/Podchaser.webp","title":null}],"components":{"base":[{"id":"MainStyle","val":"light"},{"id":"Font","val":"Avenir"},{"id":"SecondaryFont","val":"Avenir"},{"id":"PlayerColor","val":"#8fc31f"},{"id":"PlayerStyle","val":"player1"},{"id":"PlayerWave","val":"show"},{"id":"Favicon","val":null},{"id":"CookiesNotice","val":"hide"},{"id":"CookiesNoticeContent","val":"

Conversations on Health: How We Get There

How do ordinary people navigate the complexity of what passes for the US health care “system”? Through conversations with ordinary people and health professionals, this podcast will try to make some of the connections for you – delving into the mix of private insurers, doctor groups, regional hospital systems, Medicare, Medicaid, the Veterans Health Administration and supposedly, a federal and state public health system- which together are considered the US health “system”. I hope you’ll enjoy the podcasts which will be quite wide-ranging. Look for new ones on the 3rd Tuesday of each month unless otherwise announced, And please, DO subscribe so you won’t miss any. Thank you so much!

The podcast is available as a video on YouTube

We start the 2024 season by celebrating the podcast's first year and a half. A fast review of some of the widely varied subjects and guests. Some are experts on health care systems. Others just people trying to navigate the way the privately-driven US system works. Or for many – doesn’t work. Maybe you’ll find one or two conversations you missed?
