Shownotes

Chris Mathew, Chief Growth Officer at Well-Genie, joins Craig Andrews to reveal how his father’s tragic and avoidable death shaped his mission to transform American healthcare. With deep family roots in Kerala and a legacy of firstborn leadership, Chris channels that sense of duty into helping employers radically cut costs while increasing wellness benefits for their teams.

Chris doesn’t just talk cost savings—he proves it. Well-Genie offers unlimited $0 generics, discounted brand-name drugs, and wellness programs that bypass traditional insurance models. The results? Employers cut healthcare spend by up to 50% while improving retention with life-enhancing benefits like childcare and college scholarships.

His leadership is rooted in advocacy. Chris believes employees need champions in a system that prioritizes paperwork over people. By creating real alternatives to the broken status quo, he's helping businesses escape the trap of year-over-year rate hikes—and he's inviting others to do the same.
