Show Notes

In this week’s episode of The Chile Wire, we sit down with Keon Ahghar to unpack the truth behind New Mexico’s medical malpractice crisis — and how it’s putting patients’ access to high-quality healthcare at risk.

We also breakdown the policy failures that have opened the door for out-of-state trial lawyers to swoop in, file massive lawsuits, and walk away with millions — all while our doctors, hospitals, and patients pay the price. It’s a feeding frenzy that’s bleeding our healthcare system and pushing providers out of New Mexico.

Tune in to hear how we got here, what’s really driving the crisis, and what needs to change to protect patients, not profiteers.
