Clearing the FOG with co-hosts Margaret Flowers and Kevin Zeese

Since the Affordable Care Act passed in 2010, there has been an unprecedented consolidation in the healthcare industry.

We speak with Dr. Anna Reed about the way this is playing out in Maryland and putting children and the poor at risk. For more information, visit www.ClearingtheFOGRadio.org.
