Think about how much more we know about COVID-19 today compared to when the pandemic first started. For example, the transmission of the virus.
I'll admit, I was disinfecting my groceries in the beginning because I didn't want my family to catch COVID. Coincidentally, we the first people I knew to get it. So why did I do this?
It was fear...of the unknown. Fear has a significant impact on human behavior. It drove me to spray Lysol on my groceries but it can also drive us to do nothing.
That is exactly what is happening in health insurance today and you can do something about it. Learn what you can do in the video above.

About the Author
Mike Kroupa, Self-Funding Insurance Expert
I grew up in a house that was constantly under construction and the experience helped me uncover one of my passions, remodeling. After running a successful remodeling business with my brother during college, I decided I wanted to keep this as a hobby. Instead, I took my advisor’s recommendation and started down the actuarial path, which ultimately led me to insurance.
Since then, I have focused my career teaching employers how to better manage their health insurance plans. I found myself frustrated year after year of doing the same thing because it didn’t feel like I was making an impact. Healthcare costs were continuing to increase, and it felt like the only options employers were left with was increasing deductibles, increasing contributions, and switching carriers.
There was a turning point for me in 2020 as I found Health Rosetta, an ecosystem for scaling adoption of practical fixes to our health care system. As my clients started adopting these fixes, I found myself getting passionate about what I was doing for the first time. Then I realized my hobby of remodeling was driving the passion because I was remodeling health plans. Even better, I was having an impact because patients (employees, spouses and children) were getting the best care they ever have and saving a lot of money in the process.
