Dau Health Insurance

News for medicare members, and why working with a local broker is the best route to go.

—————————————

GoHealth just announced they are filing for chapter 11 bankruptcy in an attempt to reorganize the company & the ownership.

Experts state the biggest reasons for the companies failure were:

1.) Trying to scale without profitability in place first (bad)

2.) Massive debt to mask 😷 number 1 ( also bad)

3.) The complete lack of emphasis on anything other than mass enrollments at the largest volume possible.

Flip peoples plans even if they weren’t a better fit, run suspect marketing campaigns that overpromised & underdelivered on what they could actually qualify for, & zero focus on long term member service or experience.

All of that, equals disaster. Their stock went IPO in 2020 at $21 a share. Today, it’s around $0.30 a share. That’s a 98% tank. This company is done.

And to be honest, they should be. Because along with a few other similar companies like them, they did more damage to the Medicare market than can be fathomed.

The lesson? Relationships matter. Trust matters. Long term customer service & experience matters. All of which, the independent agent gives to clients everyday. You can’t replace that with fancy PE & investor money if the product being offered is bad enough.

It's a beautiful day to be outdoors supporting a worthy cause.

Working the Mid-Autum festival with on this Sunday talking about Health Insurance. I got visited by three cuties!

In medical school, we aren’t taught that there are ways to prevent Alzheimer’s disease, when, in fact, we have a lot of power over the direction our brain function will take. However, we’re now learning that the disease starts in the brain 20 to 30 years before the first signs of memory loss! ⁠
⁠
This is why we should all be thinking about prevention. ⁠

Here’s the bad news/good news.

Eating sugar and refined carbs can cause pre-dementia and dementia. But cutting out the sugar and refined carbs and adding lots of fat can prevent, and even reverse, pre-dementia and early dementia. Sugar causes pre-diabetes and diabetes, which often leads to significant memory loss.

Chronic stress takes a toll on your body and brain. Stress shrinks the hippocampus, the memory center of the brain. So, find your pause button daily and make time for stress relief. Relaxation isn’t a luxury if you want to prevent or reverse dementia. Whether that involves deep breathing, meditation, or yoga, find something that helps you calm down.

Lack of sleep can cause impaired brain function, leading to CRAFT syndrome, which stands for “can’t remember a _____ thing.” Studies show poor sleep becomes a risk factor for cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s disease. Aim for at least 8 hours of quality sleep every night.

We now know that physical activity can prevent and even slow down the progression of cognitive decline and brain diseases like dementia. Even a 30-minute walk can help. You might want to incorporate high-intensity interval training or weight lifting if you're already more active.

Happy 4th of July! Today is a reminder of the many sacrifices made by brave individuals who fought for our freedom. We honor their memory by enjoying our friends& families, barbecues, beaches, and pools, all while remembering the true cost of freedom.
