Is there a big revolution about to start in healthcare?
We think yes. And we saw it – thanks to a directive by President Trump – that requires hospital transparency when it comes to patient billing.
Even if you are not a fan of this President, you need to hear this podcast.
Because – we think -- this is game changing -- when it comes to your healthcare and healthcare costs.
We will speak to the doctor who spoke at the White House with the President -- about the executive order.
Her name is Dr. Elaina George.
So the executive order forces hospitals and payers to release information based on their privately negotiated rates. Plus, providers would have to give patients estimates of their out-of-pocket costs before a procedure.
Elaina is an ear nose and throat specialist in Atlanta. Her book is one we recommend. It is Big Medicine: The Cost of Corporate Control and How Doctors and Patients Working Together Can Rebuild a Better System. You can get the book here. http://drelainageorge.com/ -
Medicare and Social Security are going broke.
That is the word from the trustees.
A big reason is healthcare costs.
And it should scare you.
We have to reduce healthcare costs.
One way to do that is to stay healthy. Make sure you use preventative care. Understand that 90% of what ails us can be cured or controlled by lifestyle changes like exercise, diet, sleep, and stress reduction.

Why Medicare for all is going to remain a hot issue. What you need to know.
Let's bat around some thoughts on Medicare for all, so people can see a wider view of the issue. Because we are getting a lot of notions both for and against – and not a lot of reality or facts.
We’ve been hit with a ton of media about Medicare-for-All. Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders is pushing it – even on a Fox News town hall. And Medicare for all is getting traction from a sizable percentage of Americans. Some polls have it at 50-percent. But other polls show it at 10-percent if it means getting rid of all private insurance – which leads to my stand – which is – it’s ok as a choice but not a mandate. Tell me what you are seeing.
First of all, it’s not Medicare for all.... It’s actually Single Payer Healthcare
JD: But it doesn’t have to be. Look at the majority of Americans who want to keep their private employer insurance. -
We’ve talked about Health City Cayman Islands. We told you it is one of the world’s top destinations for medical tourism – especially for Americans since it is so close in the Caribbean. But in this episode, instead of just hearing from us, we will talk to someone from Health City Cayman Islands.
Hi, everyone. John Daly here along with Jud Anglin. And our guest today is Mary Jones. She is the director of the US region for Health City Cayman Islands.
Mary tells us more about the philosophy of Health City Cayman Islands and why it will save you thousands on medical procedures. -

The political fight over Obamacare. And the resulting healthcare evolution we see developing. What does it mean for you? We have the unbiased perspective from behind the scenes that the media is not telling you. And in the short term it is not pretty. But we have advice.
Hi everyone. JD here with JA on the HCSP.
So you’re hearing about repeal of Obamacare. 20 red states are going to federal court to repeal Obamacare. The trump administration is joining them. Legislatively, President Trump is backing off his own repeal until after 2020 as GOP senate realizes they can’t run on it. -
Out of network could mean out of pocket – unless you know some healthcare secrets.
Hi, everyone. John Daly here along with Jud Anglin.

It’s about a woman who was almost forced to pay 12-thousand dollars out of pocket for her son’s tonsillectomy – even though she had insurance.

Welcome to the Healthcare Secrets Podcast.
Hi, everyone. John Daly with Jud Anglin.

Jud, the last time we spoke about whether medical tourism is right for you.
And today we will get into how to plan the logistics of a medical journey outside your area.

But before we get to them, talk about why planning is so important to a good outcome. -
This is one of the best books -- about the worst of the healthcare industry. It’s called
An American Sickness, by Elizabeth Rosenthal.
Jud, we both have read this. And we have both seen exactly what she’s talking about. The American people are being hoodwinked and scammed by the healthcare industry. That doesn’t mean all people in the healthcare industry are evil, but it certainly means they are stuck in a system that is working purely for profits and not for your healthcare outcomes.
It was released in 2017 is a real shocker about what goes on behind the healthcare industry’s closed doors.
She lays out the “Economic Rules of the Dysfunctional Medical Market.”
Although there are 10 rules, we’ll discuss only the first 3 here...
Let’s go through them.
1. More treatment is always better. Default to the most expensive one. Some people will say this is because of malpractice suits.
The second economic rule of a dysfunctional medical market is -- A lifetime of treatment is preferable to a cure. She documents a researcher at Harvard medical school who believed she was only steps away from curing diabetes. And yet -- no pharmaceutical company or nonprofit would step forward – to fund her research -- including the juvenile diabetes Association.
