Healthcare Triage: RAND and the Moral Hazard

I never dreamed I’d get to make a YouTube video about the RAND HIE, but that’s the awesomeness of Healthcare Triage:

As we’ve explained in previous episodes, insurance is complicated. Even John gets confused (watch the video!). But there’s a reason we have all these deductibles, co-pays, and co-insurance. It’s because of the moral hazard, and a very important research study known as the RAND Health Insurance Experiment. Watch this episode and learn all about it.

We just passed 50,000 subscribers, but we need more! Please watch and share! We need support to keep this going!
