The Healthcare Liberty Lab Podcast

What If The Healthcare Revolution is Already Here?

I just had a conversation that made me genuinely excited about the future of healthcare. It also reminded me that there’s a lot of work that still needs to be done. My guest Brian Reid, health policy expert and former science writer for Bloomberg Health spent years covering the FDA, followed by 20 years of PR, and now runs his own consultancy while writing the Cost Curve newsletter- a fascinating publication covering the technical bits of the business of healthcare - which is how I found his work and decided I had to invite him on. What he shared wasn't just another doom-and-gloom take on our "broken" system. It was something much more complex: including proof that we're already fixing it, even as entrenched interests are actively working against us. Let me show you what I mean. The $60 Billion Shell Game There's a program called 340B that perfectly captures everything wrong with healthcare today. Created in 1992 to help vulnerable patients get cheaper drugs, it now generates $60 billion annually for hospitals. Here's the scam: * Hospitals buy drugs at massive discounts (i.e. a $50 drug for 10 cents) * They give those drugs to insured patients * Then bill the insurance the full $50 (or maybe $500 since they make it up as they go along) * They pocket the $40+ difference * And there’s zero oversight on where the money goes You might be thinking… well, okay, but at least it’s helping uninsured or more vulnerable patients, right? Well, no actually. Brian shared that there’s no evidence of that. Uninsured and lower income patients often still pay “full price.” So you also might be wondering why am I telling you this awful story and pretending it’s good news, but here’s the exciting part… You are reading about it right now. Instead of it flying under the radar as it has for the past 30 years, people are talking about it. A lot. It’s not just me. Even better, solutions are being highlighted. And not just for 340B. We’re beginning to pay attention to corrupt practices in many areas of healthcare that previously would have gone completely unnoticed. Brian put it perfectly: "Complexity has been weaponized. Complexity is a barrier to access." It isn't incompetence. It's intentional. Every confusing form, every price you can't comparison shop, every procedure that mysteriously costs different amounts at different places – it's all designed to extract maximum profit while keeping you confused and compliant - but the scheme is cracking as more and more of us are waking up. The Beautiful Counter-Revolution But here's where it gets exciting. While the old guard plays their shell games, entrepreneurs are building the future. Mark Cuban looked at the pharmaceutical pricing mess and said "screw this" – then launched Cost Plus Drug Company to sell medications at transparent prices. Pharmacists are leaving the corporate chains to start consulting practices, giving families the medication guidance they actually need. Direct Primary Care doctors are cutting out insurance middlemen entirely, offering unlimited access for monthly fees. Telehealth platforms are connecting patients directly with specialists, bypassing geographic gatekeepers. And it’s not theory. It’s happening right now. The Information War Complexity isn't just annoying – it's expensive and hurtful. When you don't understand the system, you make worse decisions. When you can't comparison shop, you pay more. When the system is opaque, you get ripped off. But here's the thing: You can fight back with information. Every term you learn arms you against exploitation. Every price you comparison shop is a vote against the old system. Every time you choose transparency over complexity, you're funding the companies leading the revolution. The Trade-Offs They Don't Want You to See Brian dropped this truth bomb: "There's no tooth fairy." Every healthcare solution involves trade-offs. Want cheaper care? You'll have to do more work to find it. Want unlimited access? You might pay premium prices. Want government-controlled costs? You'll get fewer innovations. The establishment pretends these trade-offs don't exist. Politicians promise more for less. Insurance companies claim better coverage at lower costs. It's all BS. The entrepreneurs building the new system? They're honest about the trade-offs: * Direct Primary Care: Lower cost and more access, but you still need something to help with catastrophic events. * Transparent drug pricing: Better prices, but fewer locations or you wait for shipping. * Telemedicine: Convenient access, but there’s no real physical examination. Honesty about trade-offs is how you know who's actually trying to help you. The Innovation Explosion (Despite the Resistance) Here's what makes me optimistic: The medical breakthroughs are so good that even the broken system can't stop them. Gene therapies are curing "incurable" diseases. AI is revolutionizing drug discovery. The free market is fixing access and pricing. Yes, the old system tries to gatekeep these innovations. Insurance companies deny coverage. Pharmacy benefit managers extract their cuts. Hospitals mark up prices 400%. But the companies providing real value are so good that they’re breaking through anyway. We are seeing patients transform their lives with medications that seemed impossible five years ago. That's not happening because the system works – it's happening despite the system being broken. Your Role in the Revolution You don't have to wait for Congress to fix anything. You can start opting out today. Become Healthcare Literate Yes, it's annoying that you have to learn this stuff. But every term you understand is money in your pocket and power in your hands. Vote with Your Wallet Choose employers with transparent health benefits. Support businesses that post clear prices. Use services that respect your time and intelligence. Ask Uncomfortable Questions When your hospital can't explain a bill, demand answers. When your insurance denies something, ask for written justification. When prices don't make sense, make them explain the math. Build Your Own Safety Net Find direct-pay doctors. Research cash prices for procedures. Build relationships with consulting pharmacists. Create backup plans that don't depend on the broken system. The Compound Effect Here's what gets me excited: Every person who opts out makes the system a little less profitable. One employer choosing transparent pricing forces competitors to follow suit. One patient comparison shopping pressures providers to post real prices. One person learning to navigate the system teaches ten others. One entrepreneur solving a healthcare problem inspires a hundred more. The old system depends on your confusion and compliance. Every act of clarity and choice weakens their grip. The Future We're Building Brian mentioned we're in a "thousand flowers blooming" moment. Not all these experiments will succeed. The entrenched interests will fight back. Some innovative companies will get bought out and neutered. Some regulations will try to protect the status quo. But enough flowers will bloom to change the landscape forever. Ten years from now, you'll look back at today's healthcare system like you look back at taxi medallions before Uber. Expensive. Inefficient. Propped up by regulation. Actively hostile to customer needs. Your kids will ask why hospitals were allowed to buy drugs for $10 and charge patients $50 with no oversight. They won't believe the answer. The Revolution is Personal This isn't just about policy abstractions. It's about your family getting honest care at fair prices. It's about your community having access to real innovation instead of corporate theater. It's about your future being healthier because you refused to accept b******t as normal. The healthcare revolution is happening. The old guard is fighting it. The question is: Which side are you on? Ready to join the healthcare revolution?

The Real Problem with Private Practice Isn't What You Think

I had a fascinating conversation with Dr. Dan Neissany, a former physical therapist turned practice optimization consultant, that reframed how I think about the challenges facing private practice clinicians today. What emerged wasn't the typical "doctors are bad at business" narrative we hear so often, but something far more nuanced and actionable. The Rules Changed Mid-Game It's not that physicians can't run businesses. It's that someone went around back and changed all the rules after they started. The system that once worked- where you could see a reasonable number of patients and keep the lights on- has been systematically undermined. Reimbursements are declining, denials are increasing and the result is physicians having to see 20%+ more patients just to make the same income they made before. Which creates, essentially, a “burnout” trap. A doctor seeing 52 patients in one day with 10 surgical cases the next day might technically be capable of handling that load, but as Dan asked: "Do you want to do it? And how long can you do it for?" The real issue isn't capability- it's sustainability. When your passion for medicine starts to fade because you're drowning in volume, what then? By the time most physicians realize they need help, it's often too late. What Actually Needs Measuring Here's where the conversation got really practical. Most private practices are flying blind when it comes to basic metrics that could dramatically improve their operations. Dan highlighted several key areas: Daily Metrics: * Cancellation and no-show rates (many practices don't calculate this) * Schedule fill rates * Patient flow efficiency Weekly/Monthly Metrics: * First-pass claim acceptance rates * Denial reasons and patterns * Patient retention rates * Revenue per visit The shocking reality? Many established practices have been around for 10-15 years but have only a handful of online reviews. They have no social media presence. They're essentially invisible to potential patients making decisions in 2025. The Missing Infrastructure What struck me most was Dan's point about getting outside help. Unlike other business leaders who surround themselves with experts in different areas, many physicians feel they need to master everything themselves. "You take the CEO of any company, they're not expected to be the expert at web design and cybersecurity... The skill set that they need is the ability to listen to the people who are experts at those things and then make the best decisions." Clinicians are smart and well educated. They have these executive functioning skills. What they often lack is knowing there's a framework of trusted experts they can build around their practice - and using them. The Opportunity Hidden in the Crisis Rather than just complaining about everything wrong with the system, Dan advocates for a different approach: Instead of focusing on everything that's going wrong... let's look at the opportunity here. But it isn’t about accepting a broken system- it's about building resilience while working toward systemic change. The practices that thrive are those that: * Build systems early rather than waiting until they're overwhelmed * Use data to identify revenue leakage they didn't know existed * Create authentic connections with patients through modern channels * Develop leadership teams that can handle business operations while physicians focus on patient care The Social Media Blind Spot One of the biggest missed opportunities Dan identified is social media presence. Not silly dancing videos, but authentic content that shows the personality and culture of the practice. When patients are choosing between five similar practices with similar reviews, the one with an active, authentic social media presence often wins. It's free marketing that builds trust before patients even walk through the door. The Bottom Line The narrative that "doctors are bad at business" is not only wrong- it's harmful. Physicians are dealing with a system that's been deliberately stacked against private practice success. The solution isn't to become MBAs; it's to build the right support systems and focus on what actually moves the needle. As Dan said: Healthcare is still business. If you're not making money, nobody's staying open... It's like you don't want to treat it as business but newsflash if you're not making money you're closing down or you're going to be forced to sell. The physicians who will thrive are those who acknowledge this reality while staying true to their mission of excellent patient care. They're not selling out- they're building sustainable practices that can weather whatever changes come next. This conversation reminded me that the best solutions often come from stepping outside our industry silos and learning from unexpected places. Sometimes the insights we need are hiding in plain sight- we just need the right lens to see them.

Your Eyes Are Screaming

Most people think all eye doctors do is fix blurry vision with glasses. Turns out, that's totally wrong. Today I’m sharing a conversation I had with Joel Ciolek— Stanford Professor and one of only 80 ophthalmology physician associates in the world. After hundreds of rejections to work in the specialty he loves, he carved out a position that barely existed and built something remarkable. Joel has since created a professional society. He teaches at medical schools worldwide. He proved that innovation is still possible in healthcare - even when everyone tells you ‘no.’ But most importantly, what he has learned about eyes will change how you think about your health. Your eyes aren't just for seeing. They're diagnostic windows into every major system in your body. Heart disease. Diabetes. Brain tumors. High blood pressure. Autoimmune disorders. All visible through your eyes- often before symptoms show up anywhere else. Joel has literally saved lives during routine eye exams. But here's the problem: If you don’t know this, you might be approaching eye care all wrong (or avoiding it all together). The Category Mistake Costing You Time and Money Joel points out that most people think all eye problems are "vision" problems. They're not. Here's the distinction that you need to understand: * Vision concerns = glasses, contacts, routine “read the bottom line” checkups (optical) * Medical concerns = pain, redness, infections, sudden changes (health) Have a red, painful eye? That's a ‘medical’ issue. Not a ‘vision’ issue. You benefit from knowing the difference because otherwise: * People end up with chronic disease that worsens undetected for years because they don’t understand the value of ophthalmology in preventative care. * Or they waste hours in emergency rooms because they don’t know how or when to get help for their eyes. * Others avoid care all together because they think they need "vision insurance" for what is actually a medical problem. Whether you have traditional insurance, CrowdHealth [https://www.joincrowdhealth.com/?referral_code=RYDERLAB], or pay cash, understanding this distinction gets you to the right provider faster, and often cheaper. "Essential Eye Health" In 3 Steps Step 1: Establish a relationship before you need it Don't wait for problems. Find an eye doctor now so you know who to call and where to go if you need it. Don't have one yet? Literally Google "ophthalmology" + your city. If it's urgent, most will see you quickly if you can get there. Here's what Joel told me: Just about every eye clinic has 24/7 on-call coverage for emergencies. "If you have established care with an eye clinic, honestly, I would call them before you go to the ER because even if it's after hours, every eye clinic is going to have an on-call ophthalmologist... you're going to be able to get a hold of someone that's no different than your ER provider calling that on-call ophthalmologist." Step 2: Learn when it’s important to act quickly * Sudden vision loss * Severe or deep eye pain * Flashing lights or curtain-like vision changes * New floaters with flashes These are "call/be seen immediately" situations. Not "wait and see." One benefit to having an established relationship with an eye doctor is that you can ask them what would constitute an ‘emergency,’ and they want you to do if that happens. Step 3: Think systemic, not just vision Your eyes reflect your entire body's health: * High blood sugar shows up in eye blood vessels * High blood pressure damages the retina * Cholesterol plaques appear in eye arteries Once the damage starts reaching a critical mass, these warning signs can be observed and more importantly can allow you the opportunity to do something about it - before it’s too late. Take home message: Regular eye exams aren't vanity- they're actually early warning systems for your whole body. Your eyes are talking to you. The question is… are you listening? Short and sweet this week, but I want to know: Have you had to seek emergency care for an ‘eye issue’? Did you know the difference between medical problems versus vision problems?

The $80,000 Surgery That Cost $27,000 (And Only $500 Out Of Pocket)

Most people think they understand healthcare. They don't. They think insurance protects them financially. It doesn't. They think being "uninsured" means being screwed. Wrong again. I just spent an hour talking with Bridget Babione, Head of Operations at CrowdHealth, and what she told me will make you question everything you believe about healthcare in America. The stat that should terrify you. Medical debt is the number one cause of bankruptcy in this country. And the majority of Americans who declare bankruptcy due to medical debt actually HAVE health insurance. Read that again. Having insurance didn't save them. It took funding out of their family budget month after month, and then failed them when they needed it most. Meanwhile, there's a parallel economy of healthcare happening right under your nose. Cash-pay patients getting better care, at lower prices, with a team of patient advocates and actual transparency. The $80,000 Heart Surgery Story Bridget and I chatted about a CrowdHealth member who needed a heart ablation procedure. His local hospital quoted $80,000. Instead of accepting that price like a good little consumer, CrowdHealth helped him shop around. They found an excellent surgeon at a top facility. Flew him first class. Put him up in a nice hotel. Covered all his travel expenses. Total cost to the crowd: $27,000. He got great care, a weekend vacation with his wife AND saved the Crowd $53,000. Total out of pocket for the member: $500. No surprise there. Because ‘health events’ (outside of pregnancy) are always a max of $500 out of pocket. This isn't some weird edge case. This is what happens when you actually shop for healthcare like you would for anything else you buy. Why Doctors Love Cash-Pay Patients When you pay cash, something magical happens: * No insurance company dictating treatment protocols * No "Do A, then B, then C even though A & B are unnecessary" * You start having real conversations about what you actually need * And you support doctors who remember why they became doctors I've sewn up countless wounds in the ER and urgent care. I have no idea what any of those patients were billed. The billing company looks at my notes and bills "maximally" because they're playing games with insurance companies. When someone pays cash? The whole dynamic changes. But what about those financial consent forms? Everyone wants to know what to do about those iPad forms at the ER. Here's what Bridget told me: Instead of signing your name, just write "won't sign." That's it. No one's paying close attention anyway. And if you already signed? You didn't sign your life away. There was no agreement on a specific price, which means they can only charge you a "reasonable cost" - not whatever number they make up. The Cancer Patient Getting Top $0 Treatment Three CrowdHealth members are currently fighting cancer. All three have qualified for ‘Manufacturer Assistance Programs’ That means they're getting their cancer medications for free. Not because they're broke. Because the drug companies have to provide charity care. Most people don't know these programs exist, but the Crowd does, and they hired a service to help members apply. And if they didn't qualify? No big deal. They would pay $500 and the submit to the Crowd for funding. Because that's what community actually looks like. We take care of each other. The Real Revolution Isn't Technology Everyone thinks healthcare will be disrupted by some app or AI breakthrough. They're missing the point. The revolution is happening already through community. Through people taking responsibility. Through transparency instead of the current shell game. CrowdHealth members save money every month compared to traditional insurance. They get better care. They know exactly what they're paying for. And when someone needs extra help - like the family who just adopted a 3-year-old from Africa and needs specialized testing - the community steps up voluntarily. No bureaucracy. No forms. Just humans helping humans. What This Really Means This isn't just about healthcare. This is about taking back control from systems designed to extract maximum profit while delivering minimum value. This is about building real community in a world that's become increasingly isolated. This is about what happens when you stop accepting "that's just how things work" as an answer. The Questions You Should Be Asking * Why are you paying $800/month for insurance that still leaves you with $5,000+ deductibles? * Why don't you know the price of medical procedures before you get them? * Why are you not shopping for healthcare like you shop for everything else? * Why are you accepting a system where the majority of medical bankruptcies happen to insured people? Listen to the Full Episode I barely scratched the surface here. Bridget breaks down exactly how CrowdHealth works, what happens in emergencies, how they handle pregnancy and cancer, and why this model actually makes financial sense. The old system is broken beyond repair. The new one is being built by people who refused to accept broken as permanent. Which side of history will you be on? Until next week.

The Mental Health Industrial Complex Is Stealing Your Agency

You're sad. You go to a doctor. They give you a pill. You take the pill for 40 years. You die. This is the modern mental health system in action. And it's destroying lives. The Medication Assembly Line I just had a conversation with Susan (the "Rogue Psychologist") that should terrify every thinking person. Here's what Susan revealed after 27 years of practice: * She's worked with 3,000+ patients * Only 2 physicians refused to prescribe medication when consulted * Kids are getting cocktails of psychiatric drugs thrown at them * There's no protocol to get anyone off these medications Read that last point again. There is no standard protocol to get you off psychiatric medication. You know what that means implicitly? Once you're on, you're expected to stay on. Forever. The Numbing of America Here's the part that should make you angry: These medications don't just treat "chemical imbalances" (a theory with shaky scientific support). They numb your natural responses to a life that isn't working - which is okay on a temporary basis or in extreme circumstances, but that’s not how we use them. We’ve made it ‘the standard of care.’ Here's a story that perfectly illustrates this broken system: A woman was prescribed Zoloft during an unfulfilling marriage and career. The medication didn't fix her issues- it helped her tolerate them. For 17 years in a state of chemical-induced mediocrity. Only when a foreign doctor in a foreign country asked the obvious question- "Why are you taking these medicines? There's nothing wrong with you"- did she stop. And realize she'd been avoiding the real work of building a life worth living. That woman, was me. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Discomfort is the signal, not necessarily the problem Here's what Big Pharma doesn't want you to understand: Psychological discomfort is information. * Feeling trapped in your job? Your brain is telling you something. * Anxious about your relationships? Pay more attention perhaps something needs to change. * Depressed about your life direction? That's not a ‘chemical imbalance’- that's clarity. But instead of helping you decode these signals, the system hands you a pill to numb the emotional pain and make them go away. Susan puts it perfectly: "How do you learn anything if you don't feel discomfort?" The Real First Steps (That No One Talks About) Before you even consider medication, Susan recommends a radical approach: treating yourself like a worthy, complete human being. The basics that actually work: * Get your vitamin D levels checked and optimized * Exercise 30 minutes daily (even just walking) * Clean up your diet- eat whole foods, more protein * Rule out medical conditions causing symptoms * Prioritize sleep * Take an honest assessment of what might need to change in your life. These aren't sexy. They don't make pharmaceutical companies money. They take time. But outside of severe, or emergency situations - they work. The N=1 Approach Susan treats every patient as "an experiment of one." She asks: * What's the context of these symptoms? * What story is this person telling themselves? * What environmental factors are contributing? * How can we measure progress scientifically? This is the opposite of the checklist mentality that dominates modern psychiatry, where symptoms get you a diagnosis and a diagnosis gets you a prescription. I'm not anti-medication. Neither is Susan. Sometimes people are so destabilized they can't even participate in therapy or life. In those cases, medication can be a bridge- temporarily- while they develop coping skills. But here's the key: it should always be considered temporary with a plan to reassess. The problem is that reassessment never happens. There's no protocol. No regular evaluation of whether you still need chemical support. The questions your doctor won't ask If you're considering psychiatric medication (or currently taking it), demand answers to these questions: * What are the long-term studies on this medication? * What's the plan for eventually getting me off this? * How will we measure if this is actually helping? * What non-pharmaceutical options have we explored? * Are we treating symptoms or root causes? If your doctor can't answer these, find a new doctor. The ‘wise mind’ solution Susan mentions a concept from dialectical behavior therapy: the "wise mind." Imagine a Venn diagram: * Circle 1: Rational thought * Circle 2: Emotional awareness * Overlap: Wise mind The goal isn't to eliminate emotions or live purely rationally. It's to access both, pause, and make thoughtful decisions aligned with your actual goals. You can't develop wise mind while chemically numbed. Breaking free The mental health industrial complex profits from your dependence. They make money when: * You stay on medication forever * You believe you're "broken" and need fixing * You avoid the discomfort that leads to growth * You outsource your agency to "experts" You get your power back when: * You treat discomfort as information * You address root causes, not just symptoms * You take responsibility for your mental health * You develop actual coping skills that work for you The Real Work Building mental resilience isn't about avoiding discomfort—it's about learning to move through it skillfully. This means: * Facing anxiety-provoking situations gradually (exposure therapy) * Developing emotional regulation skills * Creating a life aligned with your values * Building physical and mental practices that support well-being It's harder than taking a pill. It takes longer. But it actually works. Your Move The system wants you medicated and manageable. Your soul wants you awake and agentic. Choose wisely. The discomfort you're feeling might not be a chemical imbalance to fix. It might be your authentic self trying to break free from a mindset that's too small for you. Listen to it. What's your experience with the mental health system? Have you found ways to reclaim your agency? Share in the comments—your story might help someone else break free. And if this resonates, please share it. Susan writes under the name: Rogue Psychologist [https://substack.com/profile/43637065-rogue-psychologist]. Follow her there!
