Check out the latest episode of the Pulse of Healthcare, as Dr. John and Peter discuss the growing dilemma employers face as healthcare costs continue to rise at an unsustainable pace. Despite mounting pressure on budgets, many brokers still funnel employers toward the same Big Box health insurance carriers—often overlooking newer, more innovative plan options from smaller, regional insurers that can deliver better value.
