First-Time Listener? Be sure to listen to Part One of this interview by clicking HERE . At US VetWealth , we often talk about exploring alternative solutions to the Survivor Benefit Plan. Today, we’re taking that same mindset and applying it to healthcare. Meet Kris and Larry, the partners behind PatriotCare — an organization offering an alternative to TRICARE and traditional health insurance. While PatriotCare’s website highlights “Healthcare Benefits for Small Businesses & Independent Contractors,” this conversation reveals so much more: the heart and mission behind their work for the military community. In this second and final part of our interview, you’ll hear: * More real-life scenarios on how available, affordable, and accessible PatriotCare is * The term “medical cost sharing company” and how it’s different from a traditional health insurance company * What Kris’ late father impressed upon him, working in life insurance for 65 years * …and more! If you’re ready to explore new opportunities and ideas beyond the military and make more confident choices for your next chapter, this episode is for you. This concludes our conversation with Kris & Larry from PatriotCare — thanks…
