Welcome to Relocalizing Health, where we shine a light on the reality behind America's healthcare crisis and offer practical, local solutions you can start implementing today. In this episode, Dave Chase dives deep into the staggering 342% increase in healthcare costs since 1999, exposing why traditional benefit packages keep getting worse despite annual "kabuki dance" negotiations between employers, brokers, and insurance carriers.

Through real-world stories, like Bryce Heinbaugh, an Ohio benefit advisor who transformed from feeling part of the problem to helping thousands in his community, Dave Chase reveals how deliberate, grassroots actions can change the game. Learn about the transformative power of community-owned health plans, transparent pricing, advanced primary care, and keeping healthcare dollars local.

If you're an employer tired of wasteful spending or a benefit broker fatigued by the status quo, this episode uncovers actionable ways to reclaim what matters most: high-quality, affordable care for your people and real economic value for your organization. It’s not about disruption for disruption’s sake, it’s about restoring common sense and dignity to healthcare, right where you live. So tune in as we bust myths, share inspiring case studies, and invite you to join the movement to relocalize health.
