On this episode of Eggs, Marshall Darr, co-founder and CEO of StretchDollar, discusses the challenges of providing affordable and accessible health benefits for small businesses. He shares his background in the tech industry and his experiences working at companies like Gusto and Decent. StretchDollar offers an alternative to traditional small group health plans by allowing employees to use pre-tax funding to choose and pay for their own plans.

Marshall highlights the complexities and high costs of the current healthcare system in the US and the need for a more flexible and affordable solution. He also touches on the limitations of employer-based coverage and the importance of empowering individuals to make their own healthcare decisions. StretchDollar is a platform that helps small businesses provide affordable health insurance to their employees. The founders, Marshall Darr and his team, saw the need for a solution that would make health insurance more accessible and affordable for small businesses. They built a platform that allows businesses to set their budget, integrate their bank account, and invite employees to choose from a range of health plans.
