S1E2: Disrupting the Status Quo of Healthcare host Dr. Nick talks to Brian Klepper, PhD, CEO of Worksite Health Advisors.

Our healthcare system is broken – it is working as it was originally designed but costs have ballooned to levels that are economically unsustainable and the outcomes have slipped. The most recent Commonwealth report, Mirror Mirror 2021: Reflecting Poorly, compares 11 high-income countries healthcare systems and their outcomes with no two systems alike in the way they deliver care. The analysis looked at multiple performance measures across five domains. Despite the US spending far more of its gross domestic product on health care than any of the other countries is ranks last in all categories except one. We, the people, the citizens of this country are not getting the value we want or could get from the healthcare system.

Your better pill to swallow is to stop accepting status quo and the expectation that healthcare insurance costs must continue to rise. A thriving healthcare market system is like every other business marketplace where we expect and see costs continue to decline and efficiencies rise. Help is available to assess your individualize company needs, understanding your employees and finding the solutions to fit. Step outside the traditional insurance marketplace. Insist on a reduction in spend that is not linked to a reduction in benefits or cost shifting to your employee’s portion of the healthcare insurance spend.
