Former hospital executive discusses how to fix the health care system.
Sep 27, 2020

John Chamberlain, former executive in hospital management and physician practice management discusses why he left hospital employment and started Citizen Health to reconnect physicians and patients and simplify health care transactions.  Citizen Health is one of thirty organizations that comprise Free2Care.  John says that with Free2Care’s 8.5 million patient and physician members, “We now have a voice.” He says that the most important thing for the average Joe to understand about health care is that you do have a choice.  You can seek out low cash prices for labs and imaging; you’re unlikely to hit your high deductible anyway.  Why pay $2500 when you could get the same high quality service for $400?  John urges those working on fixing the health care system, “Never give up.  People are depending on us.”  I could not agree more!
