YOUR BEST HEALTH CARE NOW

SHOW GUEST: Frank Lalli

Inspired by his viral New York Times article, prize-winning investigative journalist Frank Lalli details how he mastered the ins and outs of health care—and how you, too.. When Lalli began researching the cost of the drug to keep his cancer at bay, he contacted over 16 different institutions and received bewilderingly different answers and was quoted prices ranging from $571 to just $2 a day. He eventually acquired the drug for free. YOUR BEST HEALTH CARE NOW is an accessible guide to today’s health system, the book gives readers the tools to make smart decisions that could save them hundreds—if not thousands—of dollars. Whether readers want to get all of the free preventive services they qualify for or negotiate over tens of thousands with a surgeon, if they’re looking for an effective $4-a-month generic drug or the best price for a costly brand-name, or if they recently enrolled in Obamacare and feel worried about high insurance deductibles and rising premiums, YOUR BEST HEALTH CARE NOW shows the way to take charge of one’s wellbeing.
