Dave Chase on Rethinking Healthcare and the Opioid Crisis

I thought that was a very interesting take on the opioid crisis.
Have you ever wondered how our healthcare system might be fueling the opioid crisis? In this eye-opening episode of The Addiction Podcast - Point of No Return, hosts Joanie Sigal and Jason Good sit down with Dave Chase, author of The Opioid Crisis Wake-up Call. Chase brings a fresh perspective, arguing that the healthcare industry’s outdated practices have led to an overdependence on opioids for managing chronic pain.
He emphasizes the need for a shift towards integrated healthcare practices that address underlying health issues and offer alternative approaches to detox and withdrawal. Throughout the conversation, Sigal and Good explore examples of successful healthcare models that prioritize patient well-being over profit. This episode not only challenges listeners to rethink their views on healthcare but also provides practical insights into how we can tackle the opioid epidemic more effectively.
