The sheer level of complexity of the process of signing up for healthcare deters people from signing up. That’s absurd. Trisha is back for part 2 of her interview with Vini Singh, an assistant professor in the Department of Resource Economics at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Today, Vini discusses the reasons the US has a hard time getting its citizens to accept universal healthcare. Vini also shares her ideas for fixing our healthcare system by simplifying it and improving the quality of healthcare while reducing the cost!
