Harlan discusses the problem of "financial toxicity"—how medical bills can wreak havoc in vulnerable patients' lives. Howie reflects on the protests in Iran and the precariousness of the freedoms we enjoy in the United States. And they are joined by Ingrid Nembhard of the University of Pennsylvania to discuss her work on the organizational factors that shape patient care.
