About this listen

 On December 4th, 2024, the CEO of UnitedHealthcare was murdered in broad daylight, sparking a nationwide debate about the role of insurance in our lives. How did we move from a community-focused insurance to the for-profit system we have today? In this episode, we look back at the origins of insurance—when communities were at the heart of providing support and protection. Before modern insurance, communities would share resources, and care for one another in times of crisis. Over time, the focus shifted from mutual care to corporate profit, leaving many without the support they need. In this episode, we explore how this transformation has impacted the healthcare system and discuss how we can return to the roots of insurance: a community-centered approach. Join us as we envision a future where insurance is truly about supporting one another, and learn how we can rebuild a system that benefits everyone. In the next episode, we’ll dive into practical ways to restore community-centered insurance and healthcare. Subscribe and be part of the movement for change.
