In more than a decade of training and clinical practice as a psychiatrist, I've become increasingly disillusioned by the American healthcare system. It prioritizes profit over progress at the expense of OUR health. The average American spends almost twice as much on healthcare as the next highest spending country, yet our life expectancy drags four years behind other industrialized nations and ranks OUTSIDE the top 50 in the world. The system is a disaster, yet it's broadcast as 'the greatest healthcare system in the world.' Renegade Psych wants to return medicine's focus to PROGRESS OVER PROFIT, and limit the influence and power of the pharmaceutical industry and big business entities, whose primary motivations are financial in nature. This conversational podcast is released monthly via SERIES on particular topics. There are 8-12 SEGMENTS, or episodes, per topic. I interview internationally-recognized experts in their fields AND relatively unknown, up-and-coming healthcare providers. Hopefully, we can educate patients AND providers about our medical system (especially mental health), so they can make better and more informed healthcare decisions.

    48.1 Philanthropic Funding of Research by Elizabeth Lukens, DO student

    Join me as I read a monologue by a 3rd-year DO student (Pikeville, KY), Elizabeth Lukens, about ways to secure unbiased and unattached funding in order to remove financially motivated entities from designing studies and interpreting data sets in a way that is biased towards their ultimate financial profitability goals.  In Elizabeth's mind, there are better ways to independently decipher the truth by promoting evaluators disconnected from potential bias to explain how the data and methodology should be interpreted.
