Transcript: Are you curious about how the&nbsp;healthcare&nbsp;system&nbsp;works&nbsp;in the U.S.? In this episode, I will explain&nbsp;the basics of the American healthcare system. There is not one universal system, but a range of&nbsp;public and private insurance options. I will lay out how these plans work so that you can gain a better understanding. And yes. Contrary to what some people assume,&nbsp;public health care&nbsp;exists in the USA.&nbsp;There are&nbsp;several public systems, both federal and state. All Americans must have health insurance or face a federal offense. Therefore, everyone should be properly insured. If someone is&nbsp;unemployed, they may be eligible for federal or state&nbsp;public insurance programs&nbsp;to help them access the necessary health care services. Let’s find out more about&nbsp;public health&nbsp;in the U.S. In 1965, the federal government created&nbsp;Medicare&nbsp;and&nbsp;Medicaid, which provided health coverage to the elders and the poorest segments of the population. What are Medicare and Medicaid? Medicare&nbsp;is a federal health insurance program primarily available to people 65 or older, certain younger people with disabilities, or people with End-Stage Renal Disease. Medicaid&nbsp;offers health insurance to countless Americans, such as eligible low-income adults, children, pregnant women, senior citizens, and people with disabilities. States must follow federal rules while running the program, which is funded by both state and federal money. Other programs, such as the&nbsp;Children’s Health Insurance Program&nbsp;(CHIP), is a federal-state partnership program administered by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. Children’s Health Insurance Program&nbsp;provides health insurance coverage to&nbsp;low-income children and pregnant women&nbsp;who do not qualify for Medicaid but cannot afford private health insurance. I hope you found this episode interesting. In the next one, I will continue talking about healthcare in the U.S. [END OF THE EXTRACT] &nbsp; Get the transcript here:

Catherine Mayer is a journalist, a best selling author and a former president of the foreign press association in London - she accidentally co founded a political party at the Woman of the World festival in March 2015. She's watched the Woman's Equality Party grow from an idea to a vibrant political force across the UK  - she is now president. 

Gender equality is good for everyone so why are women everywhere at best second class citizens. What will it take to reach gender equality?
Catherine's new book 'Attack of the 50 ft. Women' offers a tantilising preview of a gender equal future that could be ours. It's a brilliant, original book and Catherine takes us on a journey discussing global issues and debates impacting every one of us. She talks to co founder of the Women's Equality Party and actress Tanya Moodie who happens to be the reader of the audiobook. Halla Gunnarsdóttir is also involved in today's episode - a former advisor to the Icelandic government as well as Head of partnerships and policy for the Woman's Equality Party.
