Uninsured by Choice Podcast
Share
The healthcare system is broken, and we’re done pretending it isn’t.
Exploring why people are opting out of traditional insurance, how they navigate care without it, and the alternatives creating a smarter, more human way forward.
People don't discover great healthcare through flashy advertisements.
They hear about it from friends.
Neighbors.
Family members.
Patients who finally found a doctor who knows them.
Sometimes the most powerful recommendation is simply someone saying, "You should check this out."
Who first introduced you to an alternative way of thinking about healthcare?
After being told she could lose her job while pregnant, and worried about losing access to the care she thought only employer-sponsored insurance could provide, Dr. Maryal Concepcion's career became the beginning of something bigger.
Instead of letting fear win, she wondered if there was another way... That journey led to Direct Primary Care, the launch of My DPC Story, and a mission to help physicians and patients realize they have more options than they think.
Sometimes the experiences that challenge us the most become the catalyst for meaningful change.

What people really need is access to care when they need it most.
