Health Insurance is Rigged & Controlled by the Big Companies w/ Donvan Ryckis of Ethos Benefits   - AZ TRT S06 EP10 (272) 6-15-2025              What We Learned This Week Health Insurance is primarily run by the Big 4 - BUCA: Blue Cross United Healthcare, CIGNA, Aetna To Insurance Co's – Premium = Revenue, and they are not going lower profits, so no incentive to lower costs Health insurance employer group plans can be broken down into 4 Parts Network PPO is what people typically think of when they think of health insurance There have been revisions to the Healthcare Act passed in 2021   Guest: Donovan Ryckis, Ethos Benefits https://ethosbenefits.com/   https://ethosbenefits.com/documentary/ https://businessofbenefitspodcast.com/   Our Ethos is Simple: Fiduciary First. Act in the best interest of those we serve—no matter the cost. ‘Ethos' represents the guiding principle, character, or spirit of a person or organization. It's the ‘why' that drives decision-making and fuel's purpose. Our Ethos is deeply rooted in the story of our Founder, Donovan Ryckis. Over a decade ago, Donovan, a fiduciary Series 65 securities advisor specializing in retirement and pension planning, was approached by a client facing a dire situation. The client's publicly traded broker claimed there was no solution for a staggering 37.5% health insurance renewal increase—a cost that threatened the business and its employees. With no prior experience in health insurance markets but guided by his unwavering fiduciary principles, Donovan took on the challenge. The result? He mitigated the risk entirely, delivering a solution 12% below the current rate. This allowed the business to thrive and ensured hundreds of employees wouldn't have to choose between basic necessities and skyrocketing health premiums. That moment sparked a revelation. The fraud, waste, and abuse Donovan had fought in retirement planning paled in comparison to the challenges in healthcare. He saw an opportunity to bring transparency and fiduciary principles to an industry in desperate need of change. Donovan pivoted his career, becoming one of the first fee-based health insurance advisors in the nation. By removing all conflicts of interest in broker compensation, he laid the foundation for what is now the leading innovative employee benefits agency in the country, delivering higher quality care at a significantly lower cost to employers nationwide.       Notes:   Ethos Benefits deals with employee benefits, with a primary focus on group health insurance   Per Donovan ‘Employee benefits are rigged'   Insurance company premium equals revenue. There is no incentive to lower cost, as it would lower profits.   ACA Obamacare passed in 2010, and it capped profits for insurance companies at 20%   Insurance Co's are working to expand their pool to make more profit   Health Insurance guarantees inflation keeps going up, so family of 4 could spend 35K a year   For a business, healthcare cost and employee benefits are a top 3 P&L expense   Ethos strategies can create a 30 to 40% reduction on premium impact to lower costs for a business   The HQ is in Florida, but they are a virtual office with agents and clients nationwide   Healthcare finance and delivery + Improving employee benefits     Seg 1   Donovan's bio, he was a financial advisor with a Series 65 license before he got into health insurance. Around 2014 he moved into health insurance seeing an opportunity for better service.   Typically you see agents who are working for the health insurance company and not really working for the employer companies they are selling to.   Health insurance is primarily run by the Big 4 – BUCA: Blue Cross United Healthcare, CIGNA, Aetna.   Health insurance employer group plans can be broken down into 4 Parts:   1.    TPA or third-party administrator 2.    Network PPO or HMO 3.    Pharmacy benefit RX 4.    Insurance that covers the caps the limits on the stop loss   PPO is your primary network and open on using referrals HMO is a non-preferred network typically has less offerings and tight on referrals   Ethos Benefits helps employers to break up the four parts of a group plan and customize   Network PPO is what people typically think of when they think of health insurance.   Network and the Big 4 health companies have a tighter deal with doctors and contract prices. A lot is pre-negotiated with a set of rates, which is the point of a PPO. This is where you get larger claims and they run in the system of healthcare.     Seg 2   Pay more for healthcare in the U.S. than the rest of the world   The biggest pharmaceutical companies are in the US Pharmaceutical companies in flight prices, and also set the prices They make money through spread pricing   Employers can actually pick up their own Pharma benefit and get the rebates that the big health insurance companies are not giving them   Healthcare system is a rigged game The fraud waste and abuse extremely high in health   401(k) and retirement benefit industry is actually tighter with more disclosure than the healthcare industry   Regulated better since the creation of the Securities Act in the 1930s and updates that ran through the 1970s and beyond with things like ERISA   There have been revisions to the healthcare act passed in 2021 - started in Jan.2022   Actions had 3 disclosures: ·         Brokers comp and bonus ·         Data with gag, clauses, and full access to data upon request ·         Benchmarking for drug cost     Further Notes via Google:   The revisions you are likely referring to are part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 (CAA). While the CAA was passed in late 2020, many of its provisions, including those related to transparency in healthcare, became effective on January 1, 2022.  The three key areas of disclosure you mentioned are directly addressed within these regulations: 1.            Broker's Compensation and Bonuses: The CAA amends ERISA Section 408(b)(2) and requires service providers, including brokers, to disclose specific information to group health plan fiduciaries. 2.            Data Transparency (Gag Clauses and Full Access to Data): The CAA prohibits gag clauses, which prevent plans from providing access to their data. It also requires health insurance carriers to attest annually to their compliance with this prohibition. Moreover, the Health DATA Act, a proposed bill, would further reinforce the right of employers to access their data and hold service providers accountable for non-compliance. 3.            Benchmarking for Drug Costs: The CAA includes provisions regarding pharmacy benefit and drug cost reporting, which aims to provide greater transparency and potentially lead to better benchmarking of drug costs. The Build Back Better Act, a separate piece of legislation, also included provisions for Medicare to negotiate drug prices, further impacting drug costs and potential benchmarking.  These revisions aim to increase transparency in healthcare pricing and empower consumers and employers to make more informed decisions about their healthcare coverage.    Seg 3   Ethos works with Employers to create business plans usually with a 3 to 5 year time horizon. The goal is long-term to lower healthcare cost.   Example would be a company with 100 employees with 50 to 80% of them on the health plan (does not include dependents).   Ethos wants to keep the demands of a company low, easy transition.   Ethos handles employee Qs and healthcare navigation. Ethos is full service.   Risk handled 1 of 4 ways - Reduce, avoid, retain, transfer - Transfer to insurance   Broker wants to transfer risk Company can control costs Careful not to have too much disruption with a switch to a new company   Ex - start with pharmacy part NDC National Drug Code Run report vs costs   Pharmacy benefit mgr   Pre packaged health plan Gets co approved pharmacy benefit Save 5 - 15% on costs (30%)   Separate - parts of group plan     Seg 4   Brokers comp - incentives from big insurance companies   Opening move - edit pharmacy benefit piece   State by state - regulators and rules   Employers / employees Know the network and PPO   Nationwide covers insurance part – Stop-loss Insurance   30-40 major stop loss companies Ex: Allstate Met Life Sun Life   Stop-loss insurance for group health plans acts as a financial safety net for self-funded employers, protecting them from large, unpredictable medical claims. It is a form of additional insurance.   Healthcare risk is incredibly predictable on group basis   Overall predictable w stats, actuarial analysis   Gag clauses look at dataset from current carrier   Prescription database sets   3rd party admin are less of a concern, lots of claims   Average of 18 claims per employee per year, includes dependents   Data - review AI Claims analytics software   AI claims analytics software is transforming how insurance companies handle claims by leveraging artificial intelligence and machine learning to analyze data, automate tasks, and improve decision-making.    30 - 40% reduction in premium w Ethos     Further Notes via Google: Group Medical Plans Breakdown of the common components of a comprehensive employer group health plan, particularly within the context of a self-funded model.  Here's a more detailed explanation of each part: 1.            TPA (Third-Party Administrator): A TPA is a company that provides administrative services for self-funded health plans. This includes processing claims, handling enrollment, and managing other administrative tasks that would typically be done by an insurance company. 2.            Network (PPO or HMO): This refers to the group of doctors, hospitals, and other healthcare providers that the health plan contracts with to provide services to its members. The network defines where employees can go to receive care and often dictates the level of coverage they will receive (e.g., in-network vs. out-of-network benefits). ·                                             PPO (Preferred Provider Organization): Offers more flexibility, allowing members to see out-of-network providers, though with higher out-of-pocket costs. ·                                             HMO (Health Maintenance Organization): Typically requires members to stay within the network for covered services, except in emergencies.                 Pharmacy Benefit (RX): This component manages the prescription drug coverage for the plan. It includes negotiating drug prices, processing claims for prescriptions, and managing the plan's formulary (list of covered drugs).                 Stop-Loss Insurance: This is a crucial element for self-funded employers. It protects the employer from catastrophic claim costs. If an individual employee or the entire group's claims exceed a certain threshold (the "attachment point"), the stop-loss insurance kicks in to cover the excess costs, limiting the employer's financial liability.  Additional Considerations: ·                     Data Access: Self-funded plans often provide employers with greater access to claims data, which can be used to analyze healthcare costs, identify trends, and implement strategies to improve employee health and manage costs. ·                     Benchmarking: Employers can use claims data and industry benchmarks to compare their plan's performance to similar organizations and negotiate better rates with providers and other vendors. ·                     Wellness Programs: Some employers offer wellness programs to encourage employees to adopt healthy behaviors and potentially reduce healthcare costs. ·                     Essential Health Benefits (ACA Compliance): Group health plans must comply with the Affordable Care Act (ACA), which requires them to cover a list of essential health benefits, such as outpatient care, emergency services, hospitalization, and prescription drugs. ·                     Other Benefits: Group plans can also include other benefits, such as dental, vision, life insurance, and long- and short-term disability insurance.  Understanding these different parts is essential for employers to effectively manage their group health plan, control costs, and provide valuable benefits to their employees.      Investing Shows: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Investing-Stocks-Bonds-Retirement       ‘Best Of' Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Best+of+BRT      Thanks for Listening.

After months of litigation in a federal district court, a key decision recently came out in the legal fight over 340B drug rebates. 340B Health Vice President of Legal and Policy Amanda Nagrotsky updates us on the development.Court deals a blow to drugmakersD.C. district court judge Dabney Friedrich ruled on May 15 that manufacturers cannot unilaterally implement rebate models for 340B, agreeing with the Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA) that the agency effectively has preapproval authority over rebates. In her decision, the judge cited early results from a 340B Health survey finding that shifting 340B to a rebate model would divert significant hospital resources from patient care. Drugmakers have already appealed the ruling.Some bright spots for drugmakers in this decisionAlthough the decision largely went against pharmaceutical companies, the judge ruled that the 340B statute does not categorically prohibit rebates, leaving the door open for government approvals of rebates. The judge also agreed with drugmakers' assertions that HRSA should consider how rebate models could improve 340B compliance and how requiring the sharing of data through rebates could aid in drug company audits of covered entities.Will HRSA stop all rebates from proceeding?Despite this decision, the legal fight over rebates isn't over yet. The judge found that, for three of the manufacturers in these cases, HRSA has yet to issue final decisions with respect to their proposed rebate models. In the case of Sanofi, the judge found that HRSA failed to adequately explain the legal basis for rejecting the drugmaker's rebate model, and she directed the agency to reconsider its decision and explain whether and how it would violate the 340B statute. HRSA sent rebate guidance to the White House for approval earlier this month, though as of recording this episode it was not known what that guidance would say.ResourcesRead Our Analysis of the First Federal Court Decision on Rebates340B Health Continues Court Fight Against Rebates

As healthcare systems grapple with persistent staffing shortages and rising patient volumes, the need for streamlined, tech-enabled workflows has become urgent. A 2024 time-motion study across four hospitals found that clinical pharmacists spend over 80% of their time on clinical activities, with nearly 12% dedicated to face-to-face patient interaction. That leaves less than 20% for administrative and logistical tasks like inventory management, highlighting the opportunity for automation to further maximize clinical value. Omnicell's push toward an “autonomous pharmacy” seeks to rebalance this equation by automating routine operations and freeing up clinicians for patient-facing care.Can real-world automation and AI truly relieve cognitive burden without removing the human touch from healthcare?This second episode in a two-part Highway to Health series, hosted by David Kemp, features Omnicell's Randall Lipps, CEO and founder of Omnicell, and Nish Parekh, SVP and Chief Product Officer. They discuss how robotics, RFID, and predictive analytics are transforming medication workflows while restoring human connection in clinical care.Key Takeaways:The Autonomous Pharmacy Vision: Omnicell aims to automate repetitive pharmacy tasks, allowing over 200,000 pharmacists to reengage directly in patient care.Real-World AI and RFID in Action: The lab's MedTrack OR system uses RFID to track anesthesia meds in real time, solving inventory blind spots and reducing manual counts.Collaboration is the Catalyst: Every solution stems from customer-driven feedback. The Innovation Lab is not a showroom—it's a collaborative workspace to solve “big, hairy” problems.Randall Lipps is the founder, chairman, and CEO of Omnicell, where he has led the company from a single-product startup to a global leader in pharmacy automation and medication management. Drawing from his background in airline operations and logistics, he pioneered Omnicell's vision of the Autonomous Pharmacy, now serving over 5,000 hospitals and 40,000 pharmacies worldwide. Lipps also serves on several healthcare and digital health advisory boards and is recognized for his leadership in automation, innovation, and operational efficiency.Nish Parekh is a healthcare technology executive and current SVP and Chief Product Officer at Omnicell, where she leads global product strategy, innovation, and marketing. Her career spans leadership roles at IBM Watson Health, Epic, and AppliedVR, with a focus on AI, digital therapeutics, and advancing pharmacy automation. A recognized voice in health tech, she has been featured in Fast Company, spoken at SXSW and CES, and was named one of the Top 50 Women Leaders in Health Tech.

EP. 215: I sat down with Brad Hart, owner of Forest Park Pharmacy in Fort Worth, to expose the shocking truth behind pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) and how they're driving up drug prices. What I learned about vertical integration in the healthcare system, where insurers own the PBMs and the pharmacies, honestly left me furious. Brad breaks it all down, from Medicare waste to the skyrocketing cost of specialty drugs, and we talk about real solutions like compounding pharmacies and direct-to-consumer options. This is a must-listen if you've ever wondered why your medications cost so much—and who's really profiting. Topics Discussed:  What are pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) and how do they increase drug prices? How are health insurance companies profiting from vertical integration in the pharmacy system? Why are independent and rural pharmacies struggling to stay open? What impact do PBMs have on Medicare spending and prescription drug costs? How can consumers save money on medications without relying on insurance?

In this episode of the PrimeRx Podcast, David Kirkus breaks down one of the most pressing challenges facing today's pharmacy industry—pharmaceutical tariffs. With increasing trade tensions and new policies taking shape, pharmacies across the country are bracing for the potential ripple effects on drug pricing, supply chain stability, and patient access. David unpacks how tariffs on imported Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) and finished medications—especially from countries like China and India—are creating vulnerabilities in a system already strained by global disruptions. Listeners will gain a practical understanding of how these policies could impact everything from acquisition costs and pricing models to patient outcomes and inventory reliability. The conversation also highlights regulatory and legislative responses, and what pharmacies can do now to prepare. From strategic sourcing to investing in automation and domestic partnerships, David offers clear-eyed guidance for navigating today's trade turbulence.
