Podcast: ‘What The Health?’ Hurricane Harvey And Health Costs

Julie Rovner of Kaiser Health News, Joanne Kenen of Politico, and Margot Sanger-Katz of The New York Times discuss the potential health impact of Hurricane Harvey on the Texas Gulf Coast, and what impact the relief effort in Washington could have on an already jampacked September agenda. Also this week: an interview with Elisabeth Rosenthal about why medical care costs so much.

Plus, for “extra credit,” the panelists recommend their favorite health stories of the week they think you should read, too.
