Welcome to Impact Healthcare, where we are committed to making a significant impact on the health benefits industry with our innovative ideas and game-changing strategies. In this insightful episode, hosted by Lester J. Morales, CEO of Next Impact and Transparent Health Benefits, we'll explore the mindset that's needed to drive change in health benefits and its impact on our lives.

Lester shares his personal journey and the inspiration behind this podcast. Having lost both parents to cancer and witnessed the financial hardships they faced despite having health insurance, he's motivated to transform the healthcare landscape.

We understand that navigating the healthcare system can be challenging and overwhelming, especially when you're trying to balance your health needs with your financial resources. That's why Lester challenges the status quo by questioning the high compensation of insurance company CEOs, while everyday families struggle to afford healthcare. He likens the current system to giving out participation trophies, where everyone gets rewarded regardless of performance.

Health insurance isn't broken; it's designed to prioritize profits over people. Lester calls for demanding more, changing the system, and aligning incentives to improve outcomes. He urges employers, advisors, and anyone touched by the healthcare system to change their mindset, take control of their healthcare future, and stop waiting for someone else to fix things.

If this episode resonates with you, we encourage you to share it widely. Together, we can create a community of fighters striving to improve healthcare. Don't forget to subscribe to the Impact Healthcare podcast on your favorite platform to join the movement!
