What"s Health Got to Do with It?

WJCT Public Media

What"s Health Got to Do with It? is a weekly talk program that examines where healthcare intersects with daily life, and will help guide the listeners through an increasingly convoluted medical bureaucracy. These days, health is a lot more than Googling the latest medical breakthrough or seeing your doctor. Staying healthy when you are well and getting healthy when you are sick means knowing how to interact and navigate an incredibly complex healthcare system.
