New Directions in Health Care

A new podcast examines what the lack of insurance coverage has meant for racial and ethnic minority groups in this country and how the Affordable Care Act might change that. It also looks at resources designed to educate patients about their health and their coverage. Producer Sandy Hausman interviews Pamela Riley, M.D., assistant vice president for Delivery System Reform at The Commonwealth Fund, and Cara James, director of the Office of Minority Health at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
