They believe that employers are too focused on retention rates and are not willing to put in the effort to explore and implement alternative options. Moreover, David and Emma believe that employers should dedicate the same effort to healthcare as they do to their core business. They argue that while the core business unit may be challenging and competitive, employers have had to make innovative decisions and value propositions to be successful in that area. Therefore, they suggest that employers should apply the same level of dedication and resource allocation to healthcare because it is equally important and costly. They believe that if enough employers prioritize healthcare and make informed decisions, it can lead to positive changes in the healthcare system.QUOTES“I think that they don't consider doing the hard thing when it comes to health care financing as part of their responsibility when it comes to being good leaders.” - Emma Fox"Nothing pisses me off more than an employer who's not willing to do the right thing because they're getting pushback from people who don't understand what the right thing is." - Emma Fox"Sometimes you got to make people emotional on this. And oftentimes it's just a negative emotion that's going to get them to change something considerably so radically." - David Contorno“Put the right insurance in place by asking the right questions, by working with the right people, by paying people in a way that's aligned with those outcomes. And if enough employers did that, the system would change.” - David ContornoSOCIAL MEDIA LINKSDavid ContornoLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dcontorno/Emma FoxLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/emmamariefox/WEBSITEE-Powered Benefits: https://www.epoweredbenefits.com/Emma Fox: https://emmamariefox.com/
