While Jason’s experience is positive and the history of the insurance world is totally relevant, I wondered if Jason had a solution for the affordability of insurance? People still need health insurance for the rare but catastrophic medical problem. DPC is a great answer for 80% of the issues but it still fails to answer the 20% or really, the 5% of issues that do happen occasionally, and what insurance should be for.
There aren’t a lot of affordable options right now. The best case, long-term fix scenario would be disconnecting health insurance from employment. In the meantime, healthshares and short-term insurance are the most affordable by far.
