A conversation with Charles Gaba
“We need to find a way to make improvements to the system without hurting people in the process.”
In our second collaborative episode with Doctors For America, Dr. Fethke is joined by healthcare policy and data analyst Charles Gaba.
His work highlighting the numbers surrounding the Affordable Care Act (ACA) has been influential, with citations by major publications like The Washington Post, Forbes and The New York Times and by policymakers in Congress.
He’s here today to give us an overview of the ACA, from past, to present, to future - uncovering data that speaks to the state of our healthcare system.

We spoke about how his data analysis of the ACA developed and how it is helping to influence policy, how he uses data to tell the stories of real people, why healthcare reform is like a game of Jenga, and why we need to all use our voices to speak up and fight for change.
