213. How The Government Ruined Healthcare, Health Insurance Is A Scam & How To Fix It - Shawn Needham R.Ph


Listen Later

The future of healthcare is not government insurance programs. Right now, if you go to the doctors, they are overwhelmed and spend time about 10 minutes with patients before rushing to the next patient. They typically only treat your symptoms and never dive deep into the root causes of your health problems. They also hide behind the guise of "insurance codes" and charge astronomical prices and hidden fees for certain procedures that could potentially leave people broke. Worse, people like myself actually believed that having insurance meant I was getting the best prices for medical procedures, not realizing that if I simply went to private hospitals and paid cash, I would not only get better quality care, but a way cheaper price.

Shawn Needham is the author of in Sickened: How the Government Ruined Healthcare and How to Fix It. We dive into the book and ways that you can escape the government insurance programs, but still ensure that you won't be gouged by ridiculous prices, and receive top-quality care. If you want to learn Shawn’s 6-Step framework go grab it.

Shawn and his wife Janet, (also a pharmacist) own Moses Lake Professional Pharmacy, is currently a Clinical Assistant Professor for the University of Washington School of Pharmacy, and teaches the Advanced Compounding Course. He has spoken on topics across the nation from hormone replacement, to innovative pain therapies, and marketing a pharmacy. Shawn has a passion for helping patients achieve optimum health via hormone balancing and nutrition.

Shawn believes the movement toward natural, proactive health is already in motion. It's time to educate those around us that there IS a better way to achieve the best health of our lives... at an AFFORDABLE investment. The best health insurance we have is not something we can buy in a policy. The best health insurance we have is taking care of ourselves.
