As drug costs rise, reduced coverage has deadly consequences

Season 2025 Episode 355 | 6m 46s

The rising cost of health care is among Americans’ biggest worries, according to recent year-end polls. Insurance coverage for prescription drugs has been decreasing as their prices have been increasing. As PBS Wisconsin’s Marisa Wojcik reports, not all health plans are created equal.
