Listen "Knock Knock Eye: Why Did UnitedHealthcare Go After Dr. Elisabeth Potter?"
Episode Synopsis
We’re marking 100 episodes by getting real about a moment that I've feared all my life. The moment where they asked if there was a doctor onboard this plane!
Also: we talk about Dr. Elisabeth Potter, a breast cancer surgeon who stood up to UnitedHealthcare after they told her how to do her job—and then punished her for it. It’s infuriating. But it’s also revealing.
Takeaways:
There was a medical emergency onboard my latest flight.
Dr. Elisabeth Potter tried to do what was best for her patient. UnitedHealthcare had other ideas.
There’s a quiet war happening between doctors and insurers—and it’s not just about money.
Reaching Episode 100 made us reflect on where we’ve been, and the messy, human parts of medicine we still need to talk about.
