This is episode 17, “Every Shift I Would See Patients Struggling for Their Care.”
My guest, Jonathan Michels, discusses how he came to support Medicare for All.
Jonathan Michels started working in a hospital transporting patients. He became a radiology technician and is currently taking premed courses for entry into medical school. Mr. Michels also works as a freelance journalist.
As a radiology technician, Mr. Michels discovered that people were often stressed about paying for medical care. This led him to become active in Students for a National Health Program and led him to co-organize a protest against the American Medical Association’s position against single-payer.
Do not miss episode 17 as Mr. Michels explains how his experiences caused him to become an activist for Medicare for All.
