reyesbrian+FollowWill Cheaper Drugs Hurt Rural America?Everyone wants lower drug prices, but the new 'Most Favored Nation' plan could have a dark side. Sure, tying U.S. drug costs to what other countries pay sounds like a win for our wallets, but experts warn it might hit rural communities hardest. With small pharmacies and hospitals already struggling, slashing prices could mean fewer meds and less care for people outside big cities.

herreradennis+FollowRoseland Hospital’s repeated failures put lives at riskA tragic incident at Roseland Community Hospital has reignited concerns about patient safety in Chicago’s South Side. After a man in mental health crisis was left unmonitored in the ER, he left and later was charged with killing his wife. This isn’t an isolated case—Roseland has received multiple “immediate jeopardy” citations for dangerous lapses, including preventable deaths and neglect.
