Believe it or not, there was health news that didn’t suck in 2025.
An Arm and a Leg host Dan Weissmann breaks down how two states passed laws aimed at protecting people from things like medical debt, insurance delays and denials, and corporate profiteering.
In Maine, lawmakers unanimously voted to remove medical debts from credit reports. While a nationwide court ruling has cast doubt on the new law’s future, a consumer rights attorney tells Weissmann why she remains optimistic.
And a law in Oregon aims to prevent corporations and private equity firms from gobbling up medical clinics, raising prices, and, sometimes, delivering worse care.
Plus, the team behind An Arm and a Leg has some good news of its own to share.
