Send us Fan MailYour health insurance only makes money when you're sick, which is exactly why GLP-1 coverage keeps getting cut, and why one former WebMD exec is building a model to flip the incentive.Ana Reisdorf, registered dietitian and GLP-1 user, sits down with Jeremy Shane, founder of Life for Health and former WebMD and Medscape executive, to unpack why the value of Ozempic, Wegovy, and Zepbound shows up 10 to 20 years from now — and nobody in the current system gets paid for that. Jeremy lays out a model that would pay GLP-1 users cash for hitting their health goals, let that money grow tax-deferred like a 401(k), and fund it entirely from dollars already being spent on sick care.IN THIS EPISODE- Why health insurers argue there's no long-term ROI on GLP-1 medications — and the Medicare data that says they're wrong- The Life for Health model: getting paid for sustained metabolic results, with the cash growing tax-deferred inside a universal life insurance policy- Why self-insured employers (who cover 65% of American workers) are the fastest path to real GLP-1 coverage- What happens to a long-term GLP-1 plan if you change jobs- Why life insurers are the only players in healthcare who profit from the absence of disease- How the 1970s split between medicine and healthcare delivery created the chronic disease crisis we're in nowABOUT THE GUESTJeremy is an lifelong entrepreneur and leader of disruptive businesses in energy, consumer health, and education. His mission is to solve chronic disease, using Life for Health, his approach to increase healthspan using life insurance, instead of health insurance. Chronic disease is a long game, involving completely different scientific and medical risks than the short-term, routine and emergency issues for which health insurance was designed. It's a radical but practically doable way to combine the best of value based care, longevity medicine, and an insurance structure that actually pays people and clinicians over time as they succeed in reversing and preventing disease.CONNECT WITH JEREMYOrder Life for Health: https://amzn.to/48JAIi1Learn More About Life for Health: https://www.lifeforhealth.comSubstack: https://hardproblems.substack.com/X: https://x.com/jeremylshaneLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeremy-shane-ba62301/SPONSORTimeline (Mitopure) — clinically studied Urolithin A that supports mitochondrial renewal and muscle health, which matters most while losing weight on a GLP-1.http://timeline.com/GLP1HUB — 20% off your orderCozy Earth — temperature-regulating viscose bamboo sheets, blankets, and loungewear for the sleep quality your GLP-1 journey depends on. 100-night sleep trial, 10-year warranty. http://cozyearth.com — code GLP1HUB for up to 20% offCHAPTERS00:00 Nobody Pays You For Being Healthy01:37 From WebMD To Life For Health04:18 The Real Value Of GLP-1s Isn't Weight Loss07:17 Why Insurers Are Wrong About The ROI09:24 Getting Paid Cash To Hit Your Goals13:54 Who Would Actually Fund This16:25 What If You Switch Jobs?19:10 The Only Company That Profits From Health22:22 Making It Affordable For Everyone25:16 Can We Reverse America's Health Crisis?29:42 How To Bring This To Your EmployerMORE FROM GLP-1 HUB📬 Get The Steady State, Ana's weekly newsletter with GLP-1 guidance from a dietitian who's on one: http://join.glp-1hub.com🎙 Subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts, and if this episode helped, leave a quick review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify - it's the single best way to help more people find the show.🌐 Shop GLP-1 essentials, meal plans, and recipes: https://shop.glp-1hub.com📷 Follow on Instagram: @glp1hub📺 Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@GLP-1hub*Some of the links shared are affiliate links.
