The Collapse of American Health Care and Pathways to Community Self-Determination
Welcome to Relocalizing Health, where we dig deep into the heart of America's healthcare crisis and the opportunities that can rise from its collapse. In this Solo Episode, host Dave Chase confronts the uncomfortable truth: our healthcare system is not just broken, it's on the brink of collapse, with skyrocketing costs, staggering waste, and millions of Americans falling into medical debt.
But it's not all doom and gloom. Dave Chase shares a personal story of loss and regret that fueled his mission for meaningful change, and he draws on history and proven models to show us how collapse can pave the way for better, more equitable healthcare. From community-owned health plans to bold policy solutions like the proposed Community Self Determination Act, he reveals two real pathways to transformation, grounded in local control, transparency, and an unwavering focus on true wellbeing.
If you're ready to learn how communities are already reclaiming their health (and their financial futures), and how we can move from fear to action as this system unravels, this episode is your essential starting point. Let’s explore how we can turn crisis into an opportunity for lasting, positive change in American healthcare, one community at a time.
