When Your Moral Compass Has Better GPS Than Your Insurance Network
This episode takes a bold stand for a concept often left behind after the annual ethics training: integrity. From a 19th-century shipwreck survivor refusing to sell out his story to Rosa Parks refusing to give up her seat, we explore how standing up for what’s right has always been uncomfortable, unpopular—and often unprofitable. Naturally, that brings us to today’s healthcare industry, where "ethical pricing" is apparently a mythical creature and major players keep pharmaceutical rebates as secret as Area 51.
Listeners will enjoy a tour through the tangled world of rebate hoarding, price inflation, and "transparency" that only a legal team could love. It's a reminder that moral courage isn’t just for history books—it’s also for employers who are tired of footing the bill for an industry that can’t spell “value-based care” without an asterisk. Whether you're a broker, a benefits manager, or someone who’s ever stared at a $300 Band-Aid on an EOB, this episode offers real talk, corporate clap back, and a gentle push to start demanding better—preferably before 2028.
