John Stenson & Barbara Gniewek - Real Fun With Actuaries & Insurance!

Have you ever wondered what actuaries really do? And where they retire? Either way, you will want to join me today with, not one, but TWO interesting guests! John Stenson & Barbara Gniewek are a newlywed couple, recently located to the lake and both spent their careers in the health insurance industry. We will learn a lot about the industry, the big changes in the last few years and the challenges of keeping it going, particularly in terms of Medicare sustainability. We talk about the increase in longevity and what keeps health care administrators up at night, trying to figure out how to keep it going.And, of course, since John is an actuary by profession, we'll talk about the role of an actuary, what they really do and who they do it for! And how they can be so accurate? We even talk about why it's a good sign that several actuaries choose to live here at Lake Oconee!Finally, the story of what "lured" this couple to the lake is a sweet journey, you don't want to miss it! These stories are what makes our "Lure of the Lake" podcast so much fun!
