Candid Conversation: Soaring Health Care Costs

A key goal for Fort Worth's quality of life: affordable health care costs.

Rising health care costs are not a unique Fort Worth phenomenon — communities throughout the country are struggling to support each other through this crisis. Nevertheless, the responsibility of finding a solution has been left on the shoulders of local organizations, nonprofits and medical practices to best serve their patients amid rising prices. On Feb. 18, our panel of leaders will discuss what they see as the best solutions to rising costs of medical tests, surgeries and prescriptions for all Tarrant County residents.

Moderator:

Ismael M. Belkoura, health reporter, Fort Worth Report
