Subscriber segment: Behind the Front Lines

“But how do we create systems and insurance systems and primary care systems that give people access so that we have more wellness and not a sick care system. I think we have a sick care, not a health care system.

So I would love to see us do something around that. And that would mean even Caribbean, for example, doing a better job. Of bringing the people who do use bush medicines and bush teas, doing more research on those things, and really making that information available and accessible to people who are poor and have issues with pain.
