Dennis rolls into the studio smelling slightly like the outdoors and questionable life choices, while Stephanie immediately reminds him she is not, under any circumstances, a “camping person.” After a brief detour through glow sticks, freezing tents, and childhood trauma involving nature, the two dive into a wild but shockingly practical topic: health sharing plans.
Are they insurance? (No.)
Do they act like insurance? (Kind of.)
Can they save people thousands and make hospitals rethink their billing nonsense? (Oh… absolutely.)
From $180,000 hospital bills cut down to $53,000 to the infamous duplicate billing game, Dennis and Stephanie break down how health sharing works, who it’s good for, who should run far away, and how businesses can add it as a cheaper option without ticking off the Affordable Care Act police.
Whether you’re trying to save money, trying to understand the disaster that is American billing codes, or just here for Stephanie roasting Dennis for smelling like camping — this episode is for you.
