Are we headed for a healthcare train wreck? The warning signs are flashing: skyrocketing premiums, looming Medicaid cuts, significant reductions in home health funding, and major insurers experiencing substantial stock losses. These aren't isolated issues but symptoms of fundamental structural flaws in our healthcare system.
Rita E. Numerof, co-founder and president of Numerof & Associates, returns to TCNtalks with a powerful analysis of the healthcare industry's trajectory and a bold vision for transformative change. As an "equal opportunity critic" with over 30 years of experience spanning the entire healthcare ecosystem, Numerof offers a uniquely comprehensive perspective on why our current system is failing and what must change.
Host Chris Comeaux and Rita explore the pressing issues facing the healthcare industry and the train wreck they foresee in 2026 and 2027, but this may be the opportunity to finally fix healthcare for our country. From policy reform to consumer empowerment, with her extensive experience, Rita offers a visionary perspective on how to reform healthcare, despite its complexities, and to truly create meaningful change.
