Dr. Sanjay Gupta: Why It Costs So Much to Get Sick

Thought Leader: Sanjay Gupta
October 17, 2025

Since the 1990s, healthcare has been at the heart of America’s political debate and it’s still being contested today. Why is our health system so complicated? And how can we fix it? To help demystify it, Dr. Sanjay Gupta talks to Elisabeth Rosenthal, the doctor turned health journalist who wrote, An American Sickness: How Healthcare Became Big Business and How You Can Take It Back. She’s currently senior contributing editor at KFF Health News.

Dr. Sanjay Gupta brings unparalleled credibility, experience, and clarity to the stage as one of the world’s most trusted voices in health and medicine. As CNN’s chief medical correspondent and a practicing neurosurgeon, he has reported on every major health crisis of the last two decades—from the frontlines of natural disasters and war zones to the global Covid-19 pandemic.

Event audiences benefit not only from his deep medical expertise, but also his unique ability to communicate complex topics with clarity, empathy, and relevance. Whether discussing brain health, crisis response, or the intersection of media and medicine, Dr. Gupta delivers insights that are timely, actionable, and deeply resonant for groups of all kinds.
