CBS News Radio began offering the KHN Health Minute to its more than 700 affiliate stations weekly on Jan. 12. The brief segments will include a broad range of health stories and consumer information reported by KHN\u2019s nationwide team of health reporters. Listeners can expect stories ranging from navigating medical bills and debt, to changes in health care delivery and policy and public health. A signature focus of the minutes will be on what all the changes and policy debates that people hear about actually mean for them.<\/p>\n

In the first KHN Health Minute<\/a>, hear how noise pollution affects health and why an optimistic outlook may help people live longer.<\/p>\n

The collaboration is the latest product of an ongoing partnership between CBS News and KHN.<\/p>\n

\u201cExpanding on KHN\u2019s partnership with CBS, I\u2019m thrilled to offer the network\u2019s radio listeners across the country the KHN Health Minute,\u201d said KHN Editor-in-Chief Elisabeth Rosenthal. \u201cIt offers a fun, fast and informative way to keep up with the latest and most important health care news.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery day health news is in the headlines as we battle new and emerging threats. Our listeners will benefit greatly with this topical information that is both accessible and actionable,\u201d said Craig Swagler, vice president and general manager of CBS News Radio. \u201cThe powerful audience reach of the radio medium connects on-the-go listeners with health information they need and can use instantaneously.\u201d<\/p>\n
