There’s more to health than medicine, a doctor and a hospital. How do we shift healthcare to include overall wellbeing? Dr. Jeffrey Kaibin Lin, a physician at the Los Angeles Department of Health Services, shares his experience working in a Transitions Clinic and the services they provide to those returning from incarceration with Health2049 podcast co-host Bisi Williams. He envisions a completely open access, equitable universal healthcare system that is driven by compassion.
