This episode dives into the significant political question posed by Ronald Reagan during the closing moments of his 1980 presidential debate with Jimmy Carter: 'Are you better off than you were four years ago?' Ken Woodward explores the context of the 1980 political climate, marked by economic difficulties, high inflation, unemployment, and international issues such as the Iran hostage crisis and concerns about U.S. global standing and nuclear threats. Reagan's question, which became iconic in U.S. political discourse, was noted for its simplicity, personal relevance, emotional resonance, and strategic timing. The question invited voters to reflect on their circumstances rather than abstract policies, ultimately contributing to Reagan's landslide victory. The episode details six crucial lessons for crafting influential questions, emphasizing audience perspective, engagement, simplicity, timing, self-reflection, and a call to action. Listeners are encouraged to consider how such questions have shaped their decisions and to apply these insights in personal and professional contexts. This Curated Questions episode can be found on all major platforms and at CuratedQuestions.com . Keep questioning!

Is it easier for you to go and buy things in the stores than it was four years ago? Is there more or less unemployment in the country than there was four years ago? Is America as respected throughout the world as it was? Do you feel that our security is as safe, that we're as strong as we were four years ago? Where do you feel it in your body? What emotions come to the surface? What pictures race through your mind? Would it kill you to stop chewing your food with your mouth open? What is your number seven? What comes to mind? Did you feel the knee-jerk need to answer right away when your politician asked? Did you actually do the homework to determine what factors were most important to you, then look at data vice depending on emotion? Is it any easier to see why someone in a different circumstance may answer differently than you? How did the question affect your answer when the opposing politician asked it? Did you use the same metric for the candidates or give your preferred candidate extra leeway? What famous questions continue to pop up in your world?…

Den Bishop is president of Holmes Murphy, one of our C2 associate firms. He’s also, according to Scott, “the smartest guy in health care.” OK, we know we’re setting the bar pretty high here, but Den has a keen grasp on what’s wrong with health care today and how to change it. This much is clear: Employers cannot continue to shoulder the ever-growing costs of health care. So, what’s the answer – single payer? All-payer? Medicare for all? Or none of the above?…

In January 2018, Amazon, Berkshire Hathaway and JP Morgan Chase announced they were partnering to change the way benefits are delivered to their employees. We’re still waiting for details, but Scott and Anne Marie believe this partnership of three of the world’s leading organizations might just be able to achieve its goal of simplified, high-quality transparent health care at a reasonable cost. It wouldn’t be the first time a major employer has made a dent in health care delivery; way back in 1915, Henry Ford founded a hospital for his workforce that today is a nationally recognized health system. So what changes might this bombshell announcement hold for the US health care system? If their combined technology can produce simpler, faster and more transparent health care, then Scott says there is hope.…

Alex Frommeyer's strategy for dental care is hitting home and bringing the tech. Frommeyer is a founder of Beam Dental, a plan with perks. Members get a full dental care package and regular replacements shipped to their homes.

If you’re going to offer dental coverage, Frommeyer says, it makes sense to encourage dental hygiene.

Casey Albertson and Brent Walker of PatientBond talk with Scott McGohan about the power of psychographics to increase engagement and change behavior. Psychographics pertains to people’s values, lifestyles, attitudes and personality. It’s the “why,” the deep-seated motivations, behind our behavior.

If access, utilization and lifestyle choices are impacting your claims costs, then primary care could be the solution. Dr. Amy Mechley of Integrative Family Care of Cincinnati says her Direct Primary Care model is the answer many self-insured employers need.

When physicians and patients have a one-on-one relationship, it cuts down on emergency costs, it ensure proper medication and compliance, and it can even replace the need for a wellness initiative. Dr. Mechley tells Scott McGohan her medical journey and experiences that led her to the concept of Direct Primary Care, and the results that employers can expect after just one year.…
