The U.S. Healthcare System is Gaslighting You

Description:

Gaslight: manipulate (someone) by psychological means into questioning their own sanity

This lively, unfiltered discussion aims to unpack current issues in the U.S. Healthcare system, and demonstrate how there may only be one way to solve it: primary care. The speakers will each bring their own unique perspectives to outline factors that have led to the current state of healthcare in the U.S., primary care's role in solving these issues, why primary care is undervalued in the healthcare system, and finally, how to fix it. Between those wanting to learn more about the U.S. Healthcare system, and those who are interested in creating change, this panel will inform listeners how we can break up with the old, manipulative healthcare system and finally get the treatment we all deserve.
