Decent

I loved connecting with my friend Nancy Giacolone yesterday on her podcast Recipe For Success. Check out this clip: I believe every team that wants the best health benefits should work with an advisor or broker, and Decent is on a mission to find the ones like Nancy who understand the value of Direct Primary Care. We also talked about Decent's plan, our origin stories, and the value of writing a user guide to help people deal with you (mine lives at nicksoman.com!)

Excited to share Nick Soman's recent Q&A with Dave Chase, Health Rosetta-discovering archaeologist! 🏥💡 Dave's insights on transforming healthcare are truly inspiring. A few key takeaways: 1️⃣ Health Rosetta has improved benefits for thousands of employers, eliminating high deductibles and co-pays. 2️⃣ They're reinvesting $1.5 trillion in wasted healthcare costs into social determinants of health. 3️⃣ Dave emphasizes building new models that make existing ones obsolete, rather than fighting the current system. 4️⃣ He dispels the myth that healthcare is inherently expensive, pointing out that actual clinical services only account for about 25% of healthcare spending. Dave's passion for creating a more equitable and efficient healthcare system is contagious. His work proves that positive change in healthcare is not only possible but happening right now.

Can I get a nurse? 15 years ago in this picture I was paralyzed from GBS and needed help for myself. Now I'm fully recovered and need your help for others. Decent is hiring a fully remote Care Navigator (LVN/LPN), reporting to our Director of Care Management and fellow nurse Julia Colf, and there is a direct through line between what we're looking for and my experience as a patient. If you want to apply, please email julia@decent.com. You can read more about the job here: https://lnkd.in/gFSHbekg Nurses: I know you are the beating heart of healthcare. I know you are sharper, stronger, and scrappier than people understand. I know when everyone says healthcare is broken, you feel that, carry it, battle it. We need all of that here. Nothing feels more electrifying than finding your people. We are looking for you, to help take care of our members and lend your strength and your voice to what we're building for patients nationwide. Everyone: most nurses are not on LinkedIn. So we'll send you $2000 and two bottles of whiskey if you refer someone we hire, and we'll throw in a bottle for anyone you refer who we interview. Please share this post, or send it to a nurse (LVN/LPN) you know and love as a compliment. If they want to work with me, even better. If there are other places we need to be looking, let me know that too. I'm pushing the call button, we need help.
