In this episode of Something More with Chris Boyd, we welcome back Dr. Jordan Grumet to explore his new book, The Healthcare Heist, and unpack the root causes behind rising costs and declining patient experience.   Drawing on his background as a physician and financial expert, Dr. Grumet explains how the modern healthcare system has evolved from a community-centered model into one heavily influenced by third-party interests. Insurance companies, pharmaceutical firms, and other stakeholders\u2014many driven by profit rather than patient care\u2014have reshaped incentives in ways that impact both costs and outcomes. The result? Patients and providers often feel caught in a system that doesn\u2019t fully serve either of them.   Beyond diagnosing the problem, this conversation dives into what meaningful change could look like. From understanding the role we all play as patients, to exploring how storytelling and collective awareness could drive reform, this episode offers a thoughtful and balanced perspective on one of the most pressing issues in our lives today.   If healthcare is something you\u2019ve ever worried about\u2014whether it\u2019s affordability, access, or long-term planning\u2014this discussion will challenge your thinking and give you a clearer lens on where we go from here.   Listen to our other conversation with Dr. Jordan Grumet: SMwCB - The Purpose Code \u2013 Dr. Jordan Grumet If you enjoy thoughtful conversations about money, life, and what really matters, be sure to like, subscribe, and share.   Jordan Grumet, MD | Author, Speaker, Coach   Jordan Grumet\u2019s Podcast, Earn & Invest ","author_name":"Something More with Chris Boyd","author_url":"http:\/\/somethingmorewithchrisboyd.libsyn.com","html":"
