Ep 58: The Doctor Is In: Elisabeth Rosenthal On Managing Your Medical Costs




HerMoney with Jean Chatzky show

Summary: It only takes a one-night stay in the hospital to understand how healthcare has become a $3 trillion industry in the US. Even getting lab work done out-of-network can put this into perspective. And don't even get us started on prescription drug costs. Help is here in the form of Dr. Elisabeth Rosenthal, author of the new bestseller: An American Sickness: How Healthcare Became Big Business and How You Can Take It Back. Then, Kelly and I talk about choosing the best credit card, financial planning for single women and exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Please take a few minutes to give us your feedback and take our HerMoney survey (http://bit.ly/2oI9SPk).
