Why don’t consumers trust their insurance carrier? Hmmmm… I think it’s pretty obvious.

Short YouTube conversation (Andy Neary and another speaker) about widespread consumer distrust of health insurance. Main claim: consumers feel insurers act in their own financial interest rather than for members, driving trust to a low point; Andy Neary cites Joe Rogan’s popular podcast comments (“health insurance sucks”) as evidence of negative public perception and influence.

In the end of the day, consumers don't trust their insurance because they feel that insurance is always, so to speak, in it for themselves.
Well, you talk about the lack of trust from the consumer. I mean, if you don't think that's a reality, go listen to a Joe Rogan podcast. I've heard him say several times, health insurance sucks. It doesn't cover anything. And he's got hundreds of millions of followers. So the lack of trust for health insurance right now, I would say is at an all time low. Which is why we have to do a better job building plans that are built for the member, not for the bottom line.
