Costs are skyrocketing, transparency is nonexistent, and too many people are left wondering, ‘Why is this so complicated?’ Welcome to The Benefits Playbook—where we fight the good fight for a better healthcare system. This season, we are joined by new host Kirk McConnell, Commercial Leader at Collective Health. This year, Kirk sits down with the boldest minds leading the health benefits revolution: industry disruptors, fearless benefits leaders, and healthcare changemakers who are taking real action. We’re pulling back the curtain on hidden costs, exposing the inefficiencies, and revealing the playbook for a system that actually works. If you're tired of the same old healthcare nonsense and ready to take action, join us for season 3 of The Benefits Playbook, brought to you by Collective Health. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-benefits-playbook-6571110/episodes/the-benefits-playbook-season-3/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-benefits-playbook-6571110/the-benefits-playbook-season-3.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
