Florida Matters More Podcast: Healthcare For The Uninsured

Listen

SUBSCRIBE!

In this podcast, WUSF's Robin Sussingham, Stephanie Colombini and Julio Ochoa break down the recent Florida Matters Town Hall that was recorded in front of a live audience in St. Petersburg.

The topic was healthcare for the uninsured, and it came about after a series of stories that Julio produced on the free clinics around the Tampa Bay area.

We discuss the common perception that people without insurance use the emergency room a lot, and that's driving up the cost of care. But is that really the case?
