Sachin H. Jain: Medical debt is a scourge in our society and its impact on patients extends far beyond their wallets to their health.
Sachin H. Jain, CEO of the Scan Health Plan, shared on LinkedIn:
“Medical debt is a scourge in our society and its impact on patients extends far beyond their wallets to their health. My Care Oregon colleague Eric C. Hunter and I share our perspective on the issue in Fierce Healthcare. We write:
“It’s easy to think of medical debt as a financial problem. But it’s not. It’s a health problem, and organizations whose missions are to care about the health of the communities they serve should join in our commitment to alleviate the burden of medical debt that plagues too many Americans. But the best way to fill a hole is to stop digging. As healthcare leaders, we must do everything we can to equip people with the products and information to keep them out of debt in the first place.”
What is your organization doing to keep patients out of crippling medical debt?”
