Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Local officials in Washington are in the process of determining whether the region’s largest health-care insurer should cut D.C. a piece of its pie. One local nonprofit has accused CareFirst BlueCross Blue Shield of hoarding money from taxpayers, arguing that it should share $300 million from an estimated $687 million surplus. We explore this debate and examine the obligations of insurers who do business in the region.
Guests
- Walter Smith Executive Director, D.C. Appleseed Center for Law and Justice
- Michael Sullivan Director of Media Relations, CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield
