A $2,000 Voucher and 600 Patients: The Math Behind Fixing Care | Ep. 59

🤔 Did you know that 30-50% of Americans lack access to primary care? That's a staggering number! Bradley Bostic sits down with Matthew Holt (The Health Care Blog) for a blunt diagnosis of what’s broken in U.S. healthcare — and a concrete, numbers-driven proposal to fix it. Holt doesn’t just complain. He names incentives, calls out the money flows, and lays out a primary-care “voucher” model designed to cut downstream costs while making primary care a top-tier, high-status job again. If your organization is still treating primary care like a loss leader and “leakage” like a KPI, this one will sting (in the right way). Timestamps 00:00 – 01:20 HLTH 2025 setup + dark humor about “keeping subscribers alive” 01:20 – 05:30 Holt’s blunt system diagnosis + “nonprofit” and executive pay critique (UPMC example) 05:30 – 08:45 Primary care access crisis + why the ER becomes the default front door 08:45 – 10:50 “Leakage” + the referral-engine reality inside employed primary care 10:50 – 13:15 The concierge-for-all voucher model (the simple math) 13:15 – 16:30 Bradley connects it to value-based care + incentive shifts 16:30 – 18:10 Wrap: fewer complaints, more solutions + where to follow Holt What you’ll hear Why the U.S. system is expensive by design — and why consumers carry the anxiety. The uncomfortable truth about “nonprofit” health systems, executive comp, and transparency. How primary care got turned into a referral engine for high-margin services. Holt’s two-step path to reform — including a “concierge-for-all” model with simple math behind it. Where this intersects with value-based care… and where today’s versions still fall short.
