Donations and Sponsorship

Relentless Health Value is (although not officially) a non-profit endeavor. We get a lot of satisfaction from helping those in the healthcare industry help Americans get better healthcare. However, producing a deep-dive podcast with high production standards is a significant financial undertaking that we currently bear ourselves.

We invite mission-aligned organizations to underwrite episodes that advance our collective understanding of healthcare value. Your sponsorship supports the production costs of bringing these critical insights to the Tribe.

Tip Jar

Help us make an impact. If you find value in these conversations and would like to support our efforts to improve healthcare, please consider a small donation. Your contribution directly supports our research and production costs. You can choose a one-time "tip" or, even better, become a monthly sustaining member to help us maintain this resource for the long term. To change a recurring donation, please send us a note via the Contact Us form.

Sponsorship

Partner with us to advance the mission. We invite mission-aligned organizations to underwrite episodes that contribute to the collective understanding of healthcare value. This is a unique opportunity for organizations with demonstrable thought leadership to share their expertise with the Relentless Health Value tribe while supporting the costs of bringing these critical insights to light.

To learn more about our underwriting tiers, guest eligibility, and how we recognize our financial supporters, please visit our sponsorship opportunities page.
