SBS’s flagship current affairs forum Insight, fronted by Kumi Taguchi, is set to address the challenges faced by Australians living with invisible illnesses. The program will air Tuesday 20 May at 8:30 PM.
This week’s installment, “Invisible illness or “all in the mind”?”, scrutinizes how individuals with conditions not immediately apparent navigate their daily lives and the healthcare system. The discussion will consider whether these ailments are adequately understood by medical professionals and the wider community, or if they are sometimes dismissed as psychological.
Insight intends to open a dialogue on enhancing the Australian healthcare system’s capacity to diagnose, support, and treat those affected by chronic, unseen conditions. The episode will feature personal accounts, moving beyond statistics to focus on the lived realities of these individuals and the impact on their well-being. The program aims to assess the full scope of difficulties these patients encounter and explore constructive avenues for improved care.
