Heads in beds. Sick care. The current healthcare model isn’t broken, it’s working exactly as intended... just not for you. Dr. Jon Van Der Veer created a monthly subscription model that flips the entire model backwards. Instead of making a fortune keeping you sick, their model depends on keeping you healthy. Hy-Vee Health Exemplar Care is the brain child of Van Der Veer. He explains why healthcare is broken for consumers, why many providers want to keep it broken, and how their exclusive subscription model is only sustainable by keeping you healthy.

Local businesses, you can teach Ai to recommend you, says @ryan_doser13

Functional health doc told us eliminating processed foods and adding movement reversed "chronic" issues

@IAHealthcare @HyVee Health is a trajectory. We should applaud every company, taking positive steps forward.

@IowaPod @HyVee You’re right - it’s a great business model - a lousy healthcare model.

@IAHealthcare @HyVee Retailers carry what consumers want. Changing the marketplace requires consumer action.

@IowaPod Jon is a visionary - unfortunately, @HyVee promotes eating ultra processed food, tobacco and alcohol products - a great business model but a lousy healthcare model.

It's the 1st day of Spring! Who's going on a ride in @CityOfAnkeny?

@IowaPod Is this Hyvee Exemplar Care connected to the grocery store?

Spring is nearly here, and @CityOfAnkeny is getting ready!

NEW DATA DROPS TODAY from @IowaABI: Energy joins the list of growing concerns for Iowa leaders alongside healthcare and talent acquisition. Association President, Nicole Crain breaks down the "meh" and the cautious optimism. Energy is cheap and accessible in Iowa, but Iowa executives are starting to wonder how long that will last as new data centers pop up with future Ai energy demands. The quarterly survey from ABI board members shows cautious optimism, but may show two very different Iowa economies developing. Traditional manufacturing vs advanced manufacturing.

@Forbes You’re welcome America

George Washington Carver pioneered agriculture with concepts of crop rotations. He taught farmers to plant nitrogen-fixing crops such as peanuts and soybeans. However, he was making history years before when he became the first Black student at Iowa State University, where he earned his bachelor's and master's degrees. After, he became the first Black faculty member. His contributions to agriculture planted him on the #Forbes250 list honoring historic innovators: forbes.com/sites/alexknap… Photo: Heritage Images via Getty Images
