Elizabeth Cohen Biography

Elizabeth Cohen is Senior Medical Correspondent for CNN's Health, Medical and Wellness unit, responsible for breaking medical news and health consumer reporting across CNN platforms. In this role, she covers a wide range of health-related topics, from breakthrough medical discoveries to public health crises, communicating complex medical information in a clear and accessible manner.

Throughout her career, Cohen has demonstrated a passion for investigative journalism, holding those in power accountable and advocating for public health awareness. Her investigative pieces include: “Escape from the Mayo Clinic,” a series on a family forced to extract their teenage daughter from the renowned clinic after doctors refused to discharge or transfer her; a report on Florida Department of Health’s transfer of 13,000 very sick children from the state’s Children’s Medical Services to other Medicaid plans not offering their specialized care; and the exclusive story of Bayer Pharmaceuticals paying doctors millions of dollars to push a questionable birth control device.

Her book, “The Empowered Patient: How to Get the Right Diagnosis, Buy the Cheapest Drugs, Beat Your Insurance Company, and Get the Best Medical Care Every Time," encourages consumers to take charge of their medical care.

Cohen is the recipient of the Outstanding Alumna Award from Columbia College in New York City, where she received a bachelor's degree in history, and the Distinguished Alumni Award at Boston University where she earned a master's degree in public health.
