Episode Description

Dan talks with Dr. Zach Rossfeld, who is running for State Representative in the 7th House district. A hospice and palliative care physician, Zach talks about what his experience as both a physician and at the Ohio Department of Medicaid has taught him about what Ohio needs on the policy level, not only health policy, but housing, education, and beyond. Above all, Rossfeld calls for a radical recentering in the Statehouse of Ohioans' immediate needs even as we build longer term capacity.

Two items mentioned in the conversation:

Fleishman, What is the Relative Value of a Baby? (registration required)

Health Policy Institute of Ohio - 2026 Value Dashboard.
