Guest Dan Weissmann is the host of the podcast An Arm and a Leg, where he takes one of the most enraging, terrifying, depressing aspects of American life—the cost of health care— and produce a show that's entertaining, empowering and useful. Topics discussed on today's show: How to negotiate your medical costs, securing health care when you leave a job, and the importance of shopping around for health care.
More about Dan: Before creating An Arm and a Leg in 2018, partly as a response to his own family's quest for affordable health care, Dan worked in public radio. He's been a staff reporter for Marketplace and Chicago’s WBEZ, and has done stories for outlets like 99 Percent Invisible, Planet Money, Reveal, Code Switch, Morning Edition and All Things Considered.
