Why Health Insurance Needs Transparency w/ Ty Wang, Co-Founder & CEO, Angle Health
Episode Description
Nearly half of all Americans get their health insurance through a small business. Most of those businesses have no idea why their premiums go up every year and no real power to do anything about it.
Ty Wang, Co-Founder and CEO of Angle Health, joins host John Driscoll to discuss why legacy insurers benefit from keeping small businesses in the dark on costs, and how rebuilding the health plan stack from the ground up on modern, AI-native infrastructure is finally making transparency and customization possible for the employers who have always needed it most.
