Our Lightning Round touches on nursing home arbitration (resources herehere, and here), the decline in the number of FDA warning letters, EEOC wellness program regulationsingle payer, and the resilience of the exchanges.

Our conversation with Lewis focused on the history of empowered patients and American health libertarianism. Activists played a major role, as his fascinating article AIDS Activists, FDA Regulation, and the Amendment of America’s Drug Constitution shows.
