This episode exposes the flaws of the American medical system and why it often feels like doctors and insurance companies are more focused on managing illness rather than preventing it in the first place. Preventative medicine—simple, proactive steps that could protect your long-term health—is often overlooked because insurance rarely covers it. Instead, the system waits until you’re sick and feeling crappy, when treatment is more complicated, more expensive, and sometimes too late. This conversation will open your eyes to why the current model keeps patients dependent and what needs to change to truly prioritize true health over disease management.
