I wanted to create this post to cover my favorite content creators when it comes to learning more about things within the health care industry in an enjoyable and conversational way.
While there aren’t a ton of quality health care newsletter writers (there need to be more), the ones currently available are must-reads if you’re interested in the health care industry.
- My primary goal in writing the Healthy Muse and in highlighting quality health care writers is to get more people involved in the health care conversation. I want people to learn more about what’s going on in health care, to be informed voters, and to be advocates for themselves when it comes to their own personal health care.
- Almost 100% of the content that these writers produce end up in the Healthy Muse newsletter’s Top Reads section. They’re that good.
If you know of any more health care newsletter deep divers that should be listed in this post or the Healthy Muse’s healthcare newsletter directory, please feel free to reach out.
Here are my picks for the 5 best health care newsletter deep divers. Instant-subscribes, in my honest opinion.
