Participants in a recent study reported being afraid to talk with their doctors about their medical conditions. Worried that they might receive poorer care if they question their doctor’s opinion, they didn’t ask about their prescribed health plan.

This morning we talk with Dr. Margaret Moon from the Berman Institute for Bioethics at Johns Hopkins about the doctor-patient communication gap.
