Paul Wilson is the editor-in-chief of BenefitsPRO Magazine and BenefitsPRO.com. He has covered the insurance industry for more than a decade, including stints at Retirement Advisor Magazine and ProducersWeb.
This episode of the #RockstarsRocking podcast features Ryan Lavarnway, former 10-year MLB veteran, World Series champion, Olympian, author, and keynote speaker out of the Denver Metropolitan Area.
In this episode of the ShiftShapers podcast, we explore the complex world of pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) and their impact on health care costs, sparked by the Johnson & Johnson lawsuit.
Facing economic fluctuations, rising overhead costs and consumer expectations, benefits brokers and advisors have the unique challenge of meeting the consumer where they are today and navigating this evolving landscape on behalf of the companies that they serve.
During a session at the upcoming BenefitsPRO Broker Expo, we'll discuss why we should continue to promote DPC options for employers and how seven main tenets of DPC are revolutionizing the health care industry.
