Health Insurance Is Bankrupting 200,000 Families/Year (Here's How To Escape) with Andy Schoonover

from The Dr Pompa Podcast · host Dr. Daniel Pompa

In this episode, Dr. Daniel Pompa sits down with Andy Schoonover to explore how a personal tragedy transformed into a mission to challenge the broken healthcare system. From an $8,000 procedure later denied as “medically unnecessary” to discovering the truth about insurance denial and hidden incentives that drive hospital pricing higher, Andy reveals why both insurers and providers profit when costs rise. He explains how paying in cash pay medicine restores direct patient-doctor decision-making, lowers bills through negotiate medical bills, and avoids the trap of medical bankruptcy. The conversation uncovers the role of PBM middlemen, the hidden drivers of medical billing corruption, and how lifestyle choices tied to fasting insulin and visceral fat can lower costs when prevention is rewarded. With stories of resilience, faith and entrepreneurship, and a clear call for healthcare transparency, this dialogue shows how community and responsibility can disrupt the old model and create a path forward.Dr. Daniel Pompa Social Media Instagram: http://bit.ly/2We1zLOFacebook: http://bit.ly/2wEKGzuTwitter: http://bit.ly/2HVr0hcWebsite: http://bit.ly/2WehpGjStore: http://bit.ly/2ETMglT-------------------👉Dr. Daniel Pompa Social MediaInstagram: https://pom.pa/instagramFacebook: https://pom.pa/facebookX/Twitter: https://pom.pa/xWebsite: https://pom.pa/websiteStore: https://pom.pa/storeGot a Question?
