Sick By Design
How American Healthcare Prioritizes Profit Over HealthBy Nachole Johnson
Length11h 58m
About this audiobook
America's healthcare system isn't broken—it's working exactly as designed.
As a nurse practitioner, I've spent over 25 years on the wrong side of a system built on racism and perfected by greed. A system that profits more when you stay sick than when you get well. A system that ties your health to your employer, bankrupts you for getting cancer, and fights preventative care because there's no money in keeping you healthy.
On December 4, 2024, UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was assassinated on a Manhattan sidewalk. Within hours, the internet exploded—not with mourning, but with memes. Thoughts and prayers—DENIED. The nation's response revealed something the healthcare industry hoped we'd never say out loud: we know exactly what they're doing to us, and we're done pretending it's acceptable.
From its origins in segregated hospitals to the assassination of a healthcare CEO, Sick by Design exposes the predatory machine that masquerades as medicine.
