TPPF's Brooke Garner on Transparency and Affordability in Women's Healthcare | Texas House Testimony

Brooke Garner is a Healthcare Deputy Campaign Director at the Texas Public Policy Foundation, where she advances patient-centered healthcare reforms. After personally facing delays and obstacles to timely care, Brooke became committed to restoring a model that prioritizes patient choice, affordability, and transparency in Texas. Brooke Garner details 3 gaps in women's healthcare and suggested solutions.  First, preventative care is not reaching women early enough. Second, health insurance or coverage is not translating into healthcare. Third, restrictions that are supposed to save money only appear to save money because we don't calculate the downstream cost or the downstream harms.
