These days, health is a lot more than Googling the latest medical breakthrough or seeing your doctor. Staying healthy when you are well and getting healthy when you are sick means knowing how to interact and navigate an incredibly complex healthcare system.

What's Health Got to Do with It? is a weekly talk program that examines the intersection of healthcare and daily life. It helps guide listeners through an increasingly convoluted medical bureaucracy.

Whether it's accessing treatment, sustaining good health, finding the right doctor, getting insurance coverage, or seeking a cure, literally, everyone has a compelling healthcare story, and What's Health Got to Do with It? will give voice to these stories, which extend beyond medical science and the healthcare system, and extend into our daily lives.

The hour-long program is interview-based, with listener engagement via calls, emails, and social media, which will allow for the host and production team to access and create a community that is locally (and sometimes beyond)-focused and solution-driven on healthcare problems. Each episode will be based on a topic or theme, which will be examined from multiple angles.

What's Health Got to Do with It? is hosted by Dr. Joe Sirven, an engaging practicing physician journalist who is an expert in all facets of healthcare.
