This episode concludes our conversation about private health insurance. First, we answer a listener question, and define universal coverage, single-payer healthcare, and “Medicare for All”. Then, we discuss different depictions of private health insurance on television, on shows like One Day at a Time, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and High Maintenance. Characters make job and marriage decisions for health care, navigate bureaucracy, and struggle to understand the system. How relatable and true are these depictions? We discuss. Last, Brooke and Cori briefly discuss media that feels like it was tailor-made for them.
