- Mental health, ADHD, anxiety, and the limits of medication-only care
- Why relationship-based medicine leads to better outcomes and lower costs

America doesn’t have a healthcare system — it has a sick care system.
In this powerful episode of the Broken Healthcare Podcast, host Ray Kober sits down with Dr. Kyle Rickner, a pioneer of the Direct Primary Care (DPC) movement and co-founder of Primary Health Partners, to expose why U.S. healthcare is failing patients and doctors — and what it will take to fix it.
Dr. Rickner shares his journey from being an employed physician inside a hospital system to breaking free and helping build a multi-state Direct Primary Care network that puts doctors and patients back in control.
If you’ve ever wondered:
This episode will change how you think about healthcare forever.
Direct Primary Care (DPC) is a membership-based healthcare model where patients pay a flat monthly fee for unlimited access to their doctor — no insurance billing, no copays, no rushed visits.
Patients get:
✔ Longer appointments
✔ Same-day or next-day access
✔ Direct communication with their doctor
✔ Transparent pricing
✔ Better outcomes at lower cost
Doctors get:
✔ Autonomy
✔ Time with patients
✔ Freedom from insurance bureaucracy
✔ A sustainable career

Tiffany Ryder walked into the studio like she walks through life — calm, confident, and not here for anybody’s nonsense. A former NFL cheerleader turned physician assistant, Tiffany has seen the best and worst of America’s healthcare system, and this episode hits on everything people wish they could ask their doctors but never do.
Tiffany grew up in rural Louisiana with almost no access to care. Later she found herself working with wounded veterans at Walter Reed, studying medicine in Germany, and eventually serving on the front lines of emergency medicine — right through COVID.
In this conversation, we get into:
• why so many patients get bad advice
• the stuff you’re not told about vaccines, Tylenol, metabolic health & chronic disease
• what really happens behind the scenes in emergency rooms
• how she reversed prediabetes and PCOS with lifestyle changes her doctor never mentioned
• why she believes you are the only true advocate for your health
• how politics has hijacked medicine — and the cost of staying silent
• what she learned treating wounded service members
• the culture of “diagnose & prescribe” that keeps people sick
• her transition from NFL cheerleader to PA
• and what she’s working on through her Substack, Signal and Noise
Tiffany keeps it real. She doesn’t sugar-coat and she’s doing something incredibly rare in this space:
She’s using her press access to cover FDA and HHS to actually ask the questions most people are afraid to touch.
This episode is packed with perspective, data, lived experience, and a level of honesty that’s rare in healthcare conversations. If you care about your health, your kids, or the future of medical transparency, this one’s worth every minute.

Part 3 of 3 - Woody Waters
This is the final chapter — an unfiltered, eye-opening conversation with Woody Waters, co-founder of Reference-Based Pricing and Imagine360
In this finale, Woody and Ray pull no punches. They uncover why real healthcare reform will never come from Washington — and why business leaders must take control of their plans, their costs, and their people’s wellbeing.
Woody reveals why Imagine360 had to bring every solution under one roof — handling balance bills, claims, and member advocacy in-house to deliver the service excellence employers and employees deserve. You can’t rely on the same system that broke healthcare to fix it.
He also shares a shocking discovery: after hiring a consultancy to survey brokers and producers, over 70% claimed to be experts in Reference-Based Pricing — but only three could accurately explain how it works. The takeaway? The market is flooded with noise, and true expertise is rare.
In this episode:
- Why healthcare reform starts with leadership, not legislation
- How Imagine360 solves every issue under one roof — and why that matters
- The shocking truth about “RBP experts” who don’t understand the model
- Why owning a TPA became mission-critical for lasting change
- How empathy, transparency, and courage drive real reform

America spends $5 TRILLION on healthcare… and ranks DEAD LAST. Ask yourself WHY?!
The Senate hearing on the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) agenda was a circus — and what happened to Robert F. Kennedy Jr. proves just how broken our system is.
I feel it’s my personal duty to bring you the facts the media won’t. In this video, I break it all down:
- Why I stand with RFK Jr. after watching the abuse he took in this hearing
- The shocking truth from CommonwealthFund.org — the U.S. spends $5 TRILLION on healthcare yet ranks dead last worldwide
- A live screen share of OpenSecrets.com showing six-figure campaign donations — conflicts of interest that drive healthcare costs through the roof
- The ugly reality of PAC money and agency corruption
- Why we’re being lied to about what’s possible in healthcare — and how we can actually cut costs in half while getting better care
You’ll also see a raw, unfiltered clip of the Senate grilling — the kind of footage you won’t find on the news or any mainstream outlet.
Healthcare shouldn’t be political. But as long as money and corruption run the show, we’ll all keep paying the price.

Part 2 of 3 – Woody Waters
In this powerful second installment of Broken Healthcare, host Ray Kober continues his deep, unfiltered conversation with Woody Waters, the founder of Reference-Based Pricing and a pioneer determined to expose what’s really happening inside America’s healthcare system.
Woody pulls no punches as he reveals how corruption, greed, and broken incentives have turned healthcare into a profit machine — one that’s stacked against patients, families, and even well-intentioned brokers.
In this episode:
- The brutal truth about how big insurers, PBMs, and politicians keep costs sky-high
- Why companies like Coca-Cola and Delta could change everything — but won’t
- How business leaders can fix what the government can’t
- The shocking story of how one mother’s fight against hospital overbilling changed everything
- And the unsung heroes behind Woody’s mission: military spouses, teachers, and social workers — empathetic people who left everything behind to help patients fight back against an unfair system
“You can’t teach empathy,” Woody says. “That’s why we hire people who already care — military spouses, former teachers, social workers — people who understand what it means to serve.”
This is the human side of healthcare reform — the real people behind the fight to take back control from corporate greed.

The U.S. healthcare system is broken—and today, we’re pulling back the curtain on one of the most misunderstood programs driving billions of dollars in drug pricing.
In this episode of Broken Healthcare, Ray Kober sits down with Thomas Johnson—an attorney by trade and Executive Director of the Alliance to Save America’s 340B Program (ASAP 340B)—to uncover the truth about how the 340B drug pricing program, originally designed to help underserved communities, has ballooned into a $120+ billion system with little oversight.
Thomas’s career is rooted in public policy and advocacy. While working with the Medical Society of DC, he helped get the city council to pass the first comprehensive anti-smoking ban in the country—a groundbreaking public health milestone that shaped his commitment to reform.

In this special episode of the Broken Healthcare Podcast, filmed live at ASCEND 2025 in Salt Lake City, host Ray Kober sits down with David Kinsey, Vice President of Partnerships & Sales for TempoPay and PayMedix, to discuss how his companies are helping employers and employees take control of rising healthcare costs.
David shares powerful insights into the financial struggles employees face today:
“60% of the U.S. population can’t afford a $1,000 out-of-pocket medical expense.”
With TempoPay, employers can offer their workforce interest-free credit lines (from $500 to $5,000) for medical expenses, prescriptions, dental, vision, and even veterinary care—with no credit checks required.
“We’re leveling the playing field. Even people with a credit score below 350 can now access the care they need—without resorting to high-interest credit cards.”
Meanwhile, PayMedix ensures providers are guaranteed payment for patient responsibility, improving access to care while reducing bad debt. Employers benefit from lower turnover, improved presenteeism, and reduced healthcare trend—running 2% below market average.
David also explains why this matters for every employer, not just those with lower-wage workforces:
“Even higher-paid populations often struggle with high deductibles and HSAs. We give them a budgetable way to pay for care, while preserving their savings.”
Key takeaways from this episode:
✅ Employers can save money while supporting employee health
✅ Employees avoid financial stress and delayed care
✅ Providers reduce uncompensated care and secure payments
✅ Everyone wins with a more sustainable, affordable healthcare model
