<p>Today’s guest is Paul E. Fort, the CEO of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.fedpointusa.com/">FedPoint</a>. FedPoint is a fast-growing provider of benefit administration and technology solutions for large institutional sponsors, with focus on the federal government of the United States and its numerous departments and agencies. </p><p>In this podcast we talk about Paul’s unusual career journey to become an insurance executive – he first earned a PhD in Renaissance English Literature before making his way into the insurance industry. Paul began working in the long-term care insurance space in the late ‘80’s, and has been a leader in the field for decades. Not only has he led FedPoint’s growth, but he has also published a number of articles making recommendations to the industry on how to reform long-term care insurance to make it more affordable and sustainable. We close on a discussion of leadership.</p><p><strong>Links to podcast: </strong></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/healthleaderforge/episodes/Paul-Forte--PhD--CEO--FedPoint-e2dcbuu/a-aaoirv6">Spotify</a></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://youtu.be/mHjuEZN16oA?si=ijWfdAGPPaQtsF9A">YouTube: </a></p><p> </p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/paul-forte-phd-ceo-of-fedpoint/id981989377?i=1000638922966">Apple Podcasts: </a></p><p><strong>Links to Topics Discussed:</strong></p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.blogger.com/blog/post/edit/3393850410708801148/3161296643880279022#">FedPoint</a></p><p>NYT/KFF article discussed: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.blogger.com/blog/post/edit/3393850410708801148/3161296643880279022#">Facing Financial Ruin as Costs Soar for Elder Care</a></p><p>Paul Forte, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.blogger.com/blog/post/edit/3393850410708801148/3161296643880279022#">Realigning LTCI—Private Long-Term Care Insurance and the Health Care Continuum</a></p><p>Richard Hooker Wikipedia Site: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.blogger.com/blog/post/edit/3393850410708801148/3161296643880279022#">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Hooker</a></p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.
