Politics & Reform (1:40 – 2:50): Assessing the latest reform efforts and how policy can best serve consumers.

Avik: “You’ve got to have an individual market in which people can have a robust set of options in terms of the health insurance they buy…”

The Relationship Between Insurers and Consumers (2:51 –  7:35): How insurers can empower consumers to make well-informed healthcare decisions, based on individual needs. 

Avik: “If we can move to a system where you’re able to capture the rewards as a consumer for staying healthy…that’s when the consumer is really going to start to thrive.”

Providers, Value-Based Care, and Consumers (7:36 – 9:12): Market-based solutions that increase options to consumers, while also improving value of care for all Americans. 

Avik: “I would say that the best way to capture value is to make the individual market work, and have that product, that market, expand and cover more people.”

Creating a Consumer-Driven Healthcare System (9:13 –  17:32): Avik provides his vision for a consumer-driven healthcare system, built on consumer freedom and market competition.

Avik: “Let people have the choice. Let the market serve these different consumers who have different desires of what they want their healthcare system to look like.”
