Fixing Fragmented Healthcare With Ilana Yurkiewicz

Ilana Yurkiewicz, MD, medical oncologist and primary care physician with a focus on cancer patients, and esteemed author of the book “Fragmented: A Doctor's Quest to Piece Together American Health Care,” joins the show as today’s guest of honor. Chadi and Dr. Yurkiewicz discuss her unorthodox career path and inspiration to write the book, where the fragmentation within the healthcare system can be pinpointed (layers upon layers), the many narratives and original research she adds to the book to make the story relatable and compelling, and the low-hanging fruit that can change the system for the better, among many other things.
