Episode 27: Stop Using Health Insurance Industry Language

January 31, 2020 by Joe Sparks

Episode 27: Stop Using Health Insurance Industry Language is now available on Podbean, Apple Podcasts (formerly iTunes), Google Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher and Tune In.

My guest, Ben Palmquist, is the Health Care Program Director for the National Economic and Social Rights Initiative (NESRI). He does research, communications, and strategy to help grassroots organizations build power to win universal, publicly financed health care and to transform our economy and public policies to meet everyone’s needs and put people ahead of profits.

Do not miss this episode as Mr. Palmquist describes how we use language developed by the health insurance companies to describe a publicly financed health care system.

Here is the link to the article mentioned in this podcast, “Parroting the Right.”
