EP. 266: Check out Knew Health: www.knewhealth.com/share/drtyna. Use code DRTYNAPOD for 20% OFF for a year!
I sat down with Danielle Drori of Knew Health to have an honest conversation about the realities of health insurance, rising healthcare costs, and why more people are exploring alternatives to the traditional system. After my own frustrations with insurance, I wanted to bring Danielle on to answer the questions I know so many of you have been asking.
We discuss how health sharing works, how Knew Health differs from traditional insurance, what is and isn't covered, how pre-existing conditions are handled, and why preventative care should be a priority instead of an afterthought. We also dive into bloodwork, telehealth, maternity coverage, alternative medicine, and how taking ownership of your healthcare can give you more freedom, flexibility, and control over your health.
