Tonight, we have an opportunity to bring a piece of Le Mans to you, sharing in the Legend of Le Mans with guests from different eras of over 100 years of racing.  Harley Cluxton - a notable figure in motorsport history, known for a successful racing career with the Ferrari factory team and the North American Racing Team (NART) in the 1970s, becoming the youngest exclusive Authorized Ferrari Dealer in the U.S. at age 26. But did you know that he played a pivotal role in sustaining and advancing the Mirage Racing Team's legacy at the 24 Hours of Le Mans during the late 1970s?  In 1975, following Gulf Oil's withdrawal from international motorsport, Harley acquired the Mirage team from John Wyer and operating under his company, Grand Touring Cars, Inc., he relocated the team to Arizona and continued to field Mirage prototypes at Le Mans throughout the ‘70s. Under his leadership, the Mirage cars consistently performed well at Le Mans, never finishing outside the top ten, and Harley's commitment ensured that Mirage remained a competitive force in endurance racing during a transformative period for the sport; and as a result he was also recognized as Member #1 of the International Club des Pilotes in 2012, highlighting his significant contributions to motorsport. And he's here with us tonight, to recount some of that story… on this first-ever LIVE EWAL recording from the Simeone Foundation Museum in Philadelphia, PA. ===== (Oo---x---oO) ===== 00:00 Meet Harley Cluxton: A Racing Icon 02:14 Harley's Early Racing Days 03:52 The Ferrari Connection 05:02 Racing Adventures and Challenges 15:18 Transition to Team Ownership; Acquiring the Mirage Team 22:18 Le Mans 1975: A Fuel Efficiency Challenge 23:54 The Mirage Team and John Wyer's Legacy 26:44 The Love-Hate Relationship with Le Mans 30:04 The Hippie Porsche 917: A Unique Ownership Experience 33:18 The Future of Mirage and Le Mans Classic 36:58 Reflections on Modern Motorsport 40:40 Closing Remarks and Acknowledgements ==================== The Motoring Podcast Network : Years of racing, wrenching and Motorsports experience brings together a top notch collection of knowledge, stories and information. #everyonehasastory #gtmbreakfix - motoringpodcast.net More Information: https://www.motoringpodcast.net/ Become a VIP at: https://www.patreon.com/gtmotorsports Online Magazine: https://www.gtmotorsports.org/ To learn more about or to become a member of the ACO USA, look no further than www.lemans.org, Click on English in the upper right corner and then click on the ACO members tab for Club Offers.

CMS Changes and the Future of Value-Based CareJennifer Houlihan and Jennifer Gasperini of Advocate Health discuss the impact of new CMS and CMMI leadership, current challenges in value-based care, and the future of ACOs, ECQMs, and Medicare Advantage. A timely conversation for anyone navigating the evolving policy landscape.Welcome to the Move to Value Podcast, powered by CHESS Health Solutions.In this episode, we're joined by Jennifer Houlihan, Vice President, and Jennifer Gasparini, Director of Policy, from Advocate Health's Population Health Team. Together, we unpack the implications of the recent administration change, explore what new leadership at CMS could mean for value-based care, and hear their perspectives on the legislative priorities they hope to see take shape.Thomas Royal Jennifer Houlihan, Jennifer Gasparini, welcome to the move to Value podcast.Jennifer GasperiniThanks for having us.Jennifer Houlihan Happy to be here.Thomas Royal So you both just attended the NAACOS conference?Can you tell us what are some of the hot topics that folks were talking about?Jennifer GasperiniI can get us started.I think it's always great to see colleagues at the NAACOs conference and was also great to see Kim Brandt, who is the deputy administrator and COO at CMS, come and share some of Doctor Oz's priorities. For CMS and I think a lot of those priorities align really well with value based care. So they they really spoke a lot about tackling fraud and abuse. And as you know, ACOs are really the early identifiers of fraud.And so really was pleased to see them talking about that and also using technology and better data really for beneficiaries and providers to advance care. And I think ACOs obviously are very focused on that goal as well.Jennifer, do you have anything else to add there?Jennifer Houlihan Yeah. There, in addition, there were some really good sessions on the new team model, the transferring Episode Accountability model as well as guide and a lot of thoughtful conversation around how to integrate these models into the ACO and a clearer path for outcomes there. So I think there was a great discussion and got to give kudos to Jennifer. She was part of a really well attended and fantastic panel on how ACOs are adapting ECQMs and MIPCQMs and some of the kind of demands and multiple issues that are impacting ACOs on how to do all payer adjustments leveraging some of these requirements. So a lot of really timely topics and I think then the kind of final was Specialty Care integration, I think continued to be a recurring topic that we need to think more deeply about that and and how those get nested within cost, so hopefully we'll see more about that in the future.Thomas Royal So there is new leadership in place at HHS, CMS and CMMI.What does NAACOS think this might signal for the future of value-based care?Jennifer HoulihanSure, I I can. I can jump in on that one first, so I think you know, looking at Abe Sutton, you know, as as Jennifer mentioned, Kim Brandt was there from CMS. But we've also seen with Abe Sutton's appointment, who's been a strong supporter of value-based care. I think the mood was mostly positive, that there has been sort of a lot of statements, whether it's in some of the confirmation hearings, or direct statements that value-based care and the need to achieve savings is is one of the priorities. I think there's gonna be some different thinking about more aggressive requirements for more savings and as as as we've seen already, some of the model review that's already taking place. The ability to kind of end models early if they're not achieving the outcomes and the savings. So I think the mood in...

Tonight, we have an opportunity to bring a piece of Le Mans to you, sharing in the Legend of Le Mans with guests from different eras of over 100 years of racing.  In 2007 Adrián Fernández made his debut at Le Mans taking home a second place in a V8 powered LMP2 prototype. This was the first podium for a Mexican driver at the Circuit de la Sarthe since the 1960s.  Three years later in 2010, Adrián found himself back at Le Mans this time behind the wheel of Aston Martin's LMP1 finishing fifth in class (6th overall).  Returning for the 80th running of Le Mans in 2012, Adrián and Aston Martin took home a third place finish in the GTE-Pro class covering 332 laps without failures or serious mechanical problems. With his help, the team achieved the fastest lap in their class at 3:54.928. And Adrián had the distinct honor of driving the Aston to the checkered flag. On September 12, 2012, Adrián announced his retirement from racing, thus concluding his relationship with Aston Martin Racing, but that wasn't the end of this involvement in the world of Motorsports. ===== (Oo---x---oO) ===== 00:00 Adrian Fernandez's Le Mans Journey 01:56 Early Racing Career and Challenges 03:20 Transition to Endurance Racing 07:54 First Le Mans Experience 10:50 Challenges and Triumphs at Le Mans 13:13 The Art of Endurance Racing 21:45 Aston Martin and Later Years 24:49 Transition to GT Racing 25:58 Final Race and Reflections 29:03 Advice for Aspiring Drivers 34:37 Changes in Motorsport: Safety Innovations 38:32 Historic Cars and Modern Racing 40:55 Life After Racing 45:35 Closing Thoughts and Farewell ==================== The Motoring Podcast Network : Years of racing, wrenching and Motorsports experience brings together a top notch collection of knowledge, stories and information. #everyonehasastory #gtmbreakfix - motoringpodcast.net More Information: https://www.motoringpodcast.net/ Become a VIP at: https://www.patreon.com/gtmotorsports Online Magazine: https://www.gtmotorsports.org/ To learn more about or to become a member of the ACO USA, look no further than www.lemans.org, Click on English in the upper right corner and then click on the ACO members tab for Club Offers.

Listen in to get a vivid picture of what emotional-energetic contact is all about and how it impacts the success of therapy. “Emotion is the perception of energy flow and movement in the body.” “What I'm describing by way of your own emotions and sensations is that the human organism expands and contract. It pulsates. And that this pulsation is a biologic phenomenon. It is not a poetic metaphor.” “Reich referred to this way of thinking as functional thinking…this by the way is distinct from today's pervasive mechanistic thinking which in the realm of technology and machines is completely rational, in the realm of the living, not at all.” Segments of Armoring Within the Body Diagram of the Layers of Emotional Structure   Diagram of the Layers of Emotional Structure With Armoring   Question or Comment?

In today's episode we continue our conversation with @American_Heart Senior Advocacy Advisor of Health System Transformation Melanie Phelps, who was integral in the recently published study on the benefit of Accountable Care Organizations. The findings support that managed care provided by ACOs not only improves outcomes for the medically complex patient, but also benefits every patient, family caregiver, provider, and healthcare team member. www.heart.org/bettercareYates Lennon Melanie Phelps, welcome back to the move to Value podcast. So let's try to pick up where we where we finished last time. Melanie and I wanted to go back to really to sort of the heart of your research in the medically complex patient. So we know these folks require hard higher touch and really need coordinated, managed coordinated care. And, wanted to talk about why it's crucial for the American Heart Association to understand and advocate for better models of care for this patient population. And then we'll after that, we'll follow up on sort of how we can work together to do that.Melanie PhelpsYeah. So medically complex patients are of course more complex and more costly.They require a lot more services and the burden of navigating a fragmented fee for service system adds to their already very stressful lives and the chances of things falling through the cracks or delayed care is pretty high in a payer fee for service system, the ACO provides those extra layers of support, communication and enhanced access that really do lead to better outcomes, reduce stress on the patient and their caregivers, which is pretty important. We also believe they are more likely to get the most up to date care under these arrangements because the incentive to do better is there and that is not there in the case of fee for service. So, we all know that there is a pretty significant lag between new innovations and evidence-based solutions and adoption or implementation in reality, and we see ACOs as a vehicle for expediting adoption of those. The other piece on medically complex patients, why we wanted to focus on those is when talking to other patient and consumer advocacy organizations, which is a key target audience of this of this study, there was a lot of apathy and even skepticism about ACOs, OK. They're not involved in the advocacy. They're not steeped in the details and they are very suspicious of ACO's of value based care. They're thinking there's a lot of stinting going on. They think that they're being, you know, medically complex patients are being denied care and being kicked out of ACO's. And that certainly was not my experience when I worked with the ACO's in North Carolina. So, one of the reasons we focused on medically complex patients was to be able to say, OK, you know, are they getting the care that they need? What do they have to say about it? And that's why. I mean these are the people that really need the extra care and support and the results really showed that they were getting much better care and support, which should be important to everybody.Yates LennonYes, absolutely. That's that's interesting. I never would have. I guess I never would have thought about that kind of skepticism from consumer advocacy groups around value based care, and certainly my experience has been the exact opposite is the ACO model is a ideal model to have those patients in because you have the sustainable, a sustainable path to provide these wrap around services to both, both the provider and the patient and their families. I can think of multiple instances where these like in our NextGen days and our ACO REACH nursing facility waiver as an...

Today we hear from Melanie Phelps, Senior Advocacy Advisor of Health System Transformation for the American Heart Association, who shares with CHESS President, Dr. Yates Lennon, the motivation and detailed findings of a new study conducted by the AHA which found that ACOs provide better care and outcomes for patients and a better practice experience for members of the health care team than traditional fee for service. www.heart.org/bettercare Yates Lennon Melanie Phelps, welcome to the move to Value podcast.Glad to have you with us today.Melanie Phelps Glad to be here.Thanks for having me.Yates Lennon Sure, of course.So Melanie, recently the American Heart Association, released a study called Understanding Patient Family Caregiver and Health Care team member ACO experiences. Can you talk to us a little bit about what motivated the American Heart Association to conduct this research?Melanie Phelps Happy to. So the idea for the study arose out of a desire to be able to talk about ACOs in a more relatable manner to people who are not steeped in the technical jargon around ACO and value based care generally.We thought the best way to do this was to hear directly from patients, their family, caregivers and healthcare team members who receive or who provide care through ACOs.So from those who are on the ground receiving and providing care, and our hope is to use this information to better explain the benefits of ACOs in a way that's more understandable to more people.Yates Lennon Yes, certainly that, that sounds good.I know. ACO is an acronym that I think everyone of our listeners would be familiar with but when you get outside of the healthcare team member and even within in some settings, it's something people don't understand. Well, the study compares patient experiences in ACOs to the more traditional fee for service models.What were some of the key differences that stood out in terms of patient's experience first?Melanie Phelps Well, the results showed that.The care that's provided through these ACO models is just better in terms of quality and access, because there's a usual source of care through a primary care provider, whether that's a MD or an advanced practice provider.And there's usually a dedicated care manager as well as a team of people to ensure that all their needs, physical, mental, emotional and health related social needs are addressed.So essentially their experience is that they receive better, more timely and coordinated care with added supports that they wouldn't get in a pure fee for service arrangement.And I heard more than a few times that it's better than what we had before.And I also heard that my friends don't get the same level of care, and even some of the healthcare team members who lamented the fact that they can't provide this level of care to all their patients, especially those who are not assigned to an ACO, so.Yates Lennon Yeah. And I can echo that experience.I think some of our care team providers share with us stories of patients they interact with and we certainly hear that same story and even I have family in a different part of the state than the triad. And I can say from personal experience, I wish they were in these models.The American Heart Association conducted interviews like you said, just talked about among patients, caregivers and these healthcare team members.What were the what were their common themes?You just mentioned some common themes among patients, but if you expand that, what were some of the key findings or common themes across all three of those groups, patient, caregiver, and healthcare team...

Today we continue our ACO REACH conversation with Kim Williams, who discusses how this model facilitates enhanced care for the patient. She also shares insights on measuring success, engaging providers, and the broader impact of ACO REACH on healthcare equity and value-based careThomas Royal Kim Williams, welcome back. Thanks for sticking around so we could continue our conversation here today.Kim Williams Thank you, Thomas.I'm happy to be back and ready to continue our conversation.Thomas Royal So last time you know, we discussed a lot of the nuts and bolts of ACO reach.You know what it is, how it helps us, the various entities that are involved.One of the things that I want to talk about a little bit is the is the patient.So we, you know, previously you mentioned a HealthEquity plans sdoh screenings.What beyond that and including that specific advantages, does ACO reach offer to the patient compared to traditional fee for service models?Kim Williams Yes. So, in ACO reach the advantages for patients are actually quite substantial.Especially in care delivery through waivers or what they call benefit enhancements and incentives. So, for example, with the public health emergency coming to an end, a lot of the telehealth flexibilities that existed during the pandemic are no longer an option after March of this year. So if you were if you are an ACO reach, this is still an option through the telehealth waiver, which removes geographic restrictions and allow patients to get care from their provider regardless of where they are. So you know they can be in their living room doing a check in visit. It is so beneficial for rural communities and patients with mobility issues. I've had site visits with providers that really stress the importance of telehealth because they are in a more rural setting where it's not, you know, good for the patient with mobility issues to go back and forth to the offices. So I think that's definitely a huge plus for those types of population. There is also a financial benefit play that patients can take advantage of, and that's through the cost sharing for Part B services. Now this one allows reach ACOs to reduce or eliminate cost sharing for Part B services and remove financial barriers for things like a primary care visit or your chronic care management, even preventative services. So for instance, CHESS has it set up right now to where we can waive chronic care management co-pays. And so the hope is that. If we're able to waive those co-pays, patients will be more willing to seek intervention. And really participate in chronic care management programs when you know they're not too worried about those co-pays. Chronic care management is just super important in this model, alongside of transition of care management because it focus on preventions. And so I think again this is a win win situation for both providers and patients and also ACOs alike.Thomas Royal Well, that's fascinating.I so I I know that when we talk about there's options of care and financial efficiency for the patient, how does the program ensure patient receives more coordinated and personalized care?Kim Williams Yes, so care coordination plays a huge role in ACO reach. And you heard me mention earlier that implementing the HealthEquity plan requires coordination from everyone. But I want to specifically highlight the great work that care coordination teams put into personalizing the care for our traditional Medicare patients in this population, right? So first the the outreach to the patients are beyond the normal amounts and I'm I'm using our HealthEquity plan as an example here because our care management teams spend more time on the phone with patients, really to better understand why. Why are they not getting their cancer screenings, for example? And...

Tonight, we have an opportunity to bring a piece of Le Mans to you, sharing in the Legend of Le Mans with guests from different eras of over 100 years of racing.  The Camoradi USA Racing's 1960 Corvette was built for international competition under the auspices of Chevrolet General Manager Ed Cole and Corvette Chief Engineer Zora Duntov and went on to race successfully in Havana, Daytona, Sebring, Nürburgring, Sweden, and Le Mans. The only thing more amazing than this car's creation and race record is its survival. On the way to Britain's famed Goodwood circuit in August 1960 it was crashed hard and left for dead but miraculously, the shattered remains were preserved and discovered some thirty years later by Loren Lundberg, an unbelievably tenacious Corvette enthusiast from Glendale, Arizona.  Our panel of guests tonight include: Richard Prince, author and official photographer for the GM Corvette Race Team; Dominic Testa, owner of the car; Chuck Schroedel, who was a member of the Camoradi team at Le Mans in 1960 ===== (Oo---x---oO) ===== Featuring the voices of Allonte Barakat (The Motor Chain) and Revel Arroway (CARnection Advisors); We appreciate these talented podcasters lending their support to the MPN.  00:00 Introduction to Evening with a Legend 00:53 Introducing the 1960 Camaradi Corvette 02:20 The Story of Lloyd 'Lucky' Kastner 03:30 The Camaradi Corvettes at Sebring 07:35 Technical Details of the Camaradi Corvette 13:48 Chuck Schroedel's Journey to Le Mans 25:06 The Camaradi Maserati Team 30:17 The Mulsanne Crash and Speed Records 30:47 Owning a Piece of Le Mans History 31:37 The Camaradi Team and Notable Figures 32:05 Fred Gamble and Carroll Shelby 32:26 The 1960 Le Mans Race 33:11 American Reception at Le Mans 34:12 Loren Lundberg's Quest for the Camaradi Corvette 34:59 Bob Wallace's Journey 37:27 Finding the Camaradi Corvette 40:11 The Car's Restoration and Legacy 49:46 Modern Corvette Racing and the C8 56:28 Closing Thoughts and Acknowledgements ==================== The Motoring Podcast Network : Years of racing, wrenching and Motorsports experience brings together a top notch collection of knowledge, stories and information. #everyonehasastory #gtmbreakfix - motoringpodcast.net More Information: https://www.motoringpodcast.net/ Become a VIP at: https://www.patreon.com/ Online Magazine: https://www.gtmotorsports.org/ To learn more about or to become a member of the ACO USA, look no further than www.lemans.org, Click on English in the upper right corner and then click on the ACO members tab for Club Offers.

Join Melanie Phelps, Senior Advocacy Advisor for Health System Transformation at the American Hearth Association (AHA), to discuss her recent research which explores the impact of ACO-driven value-based care from the patient and caregiver perspectives. Melanie explores the overwhelmingly positive results of the study, which found that patients and their caregivers experienced better care, better support, and better patient outcomes as a result of their clinicians' participation in an ACO. Dr. Julie Prosedda, Family Medicine Physician in Wilmington, DE and a participant in the AHA study, joins us to explore the reasoning behind these benefits of value-based care for patients, which is largely due to better relationships with their primary care physicians, as well as access to timely support and resources from an expanded care team. This more wholistic, patient-centered value-based care leads to enhanced patient engagement and a more trusting clinician-patient relationship. While it's clear that patients should be demanding broader access to value-based care, Melanie and Dr. Prosedda also explore the challenges of expansion, including increasing educational opportunities and more alignment among payment models.

In this episode we hear from Kim Williams, Senior Manager of Government Programs at CHESS Health Solutions about the value of ACO REACH. She shares her expertise on what it is, why it was created, and how it benefits the patient and provider by being a care collaboration model that improves quality while incentivizing health equity.Kim Williams, welcome to the Move to Value podcast.Kim Williams Yeah. Thank you so much for having me.It's really a pleasure to be here.Thomas Royal So Kim, today I want to explore some of your knowledge that you have and your expertise.So let's talk about ACO reach first.Can you explain what ACO reach stands for and how it differs from the other ACO models?Kim Williams Sure, I'm happy to.ACO REACH stands for realizing equity access and community health.And really, the differentiator of this model is in the name itself.It's looking at HealthEquity and getting patients access to care in a timely fashion, but it's also looking at social needs and also working with community health providers to have a more coordinated approach in the patient's care journey. And so a lot of the programs requirements that we seeare centered around those core principles.And this is a huge shift away from your traditional fee for service model, where everything is based on quantity of services to now looking at value.Now we are looking at not just at the bigger picture. We're looking at the entire picture.We're looking under the rugs and we're addressing root causes in this ACO reach model, also part of what makes this model unique is in the innovative payment structure and that is what I call a capitation-like model.So this means that CMS will give us a prospective payment upfront and providers have the flexibility to structure that payment however they want to do that in a multitude of different ways.So one option is that a provider can elect to do a fee-for-service pass through where you are paid 100% of what you Bill to Medicare. Or you can elect to get 90% of what Medicare pays you.With an option to earn back bonus payments.Or if you don't want any of those options, you can also say, hey, just pay me a per member per month payment upfront.So that's called pmpm.Pay me that amount monthly or however they want to structure that arrangement with the ACO.So there's a multitude of different ways that you can go about this, and really the idea is that if the provider knows how much they're receiving up front to care for their beneficiaries, then they will be motivated to stay under that threshold and that benchmark.And that's really where the shared savings comes in.So I think the ability to select these payment options based on what you're comfortable with is not something you typically would see in other models outside of ACO reach.Thomas Royal Oh, that does sound pretty unique.Kim Williams Yeah.Thomas Royal So he touched on this a little bit, but I'd like to dig a little bit deeper and and if you could tell me what are the core goals of ACO reach and how does it align with the broader shift towards value based care and how does this model prioritize Health Equity and patient centered care in its design?Kim Williams Yeah. So, earlier you heard me mention that the goals of this model are centered around Health Equity access and community health.And so I want to camp on certain components of those levers.So I want to expand on why that matters and talk about the Health Equity for example. So as we're moving away from again the traditional fee for service and moving towards value based care, you see more and more payers prioritizing patient, HealthEquity and social determinants of...

Budgets have been a HUGE topic. Not only on this show but people are starting to notice the overspending and waste on a lot of movies. We just got a report that the Aco;yte actually cost 230M instead of the 180 that was initially reported. Now The Marvels which was rumored at 280M is not actually reported at 378M? What is happening with the decision making with these films? How is this allowed? Speaking of big budgets, The Joker 2 had a MUCH bigger budget than the first and now the second one although first predicted to have a massive opening is now dwindling because of poor reviews. Can it be saved? This and more on today's show with Kristian, Mike and Steph! #dc #dcu #joker2 #themarvels #disney #mcu #marvel #budgets  OUR SPONSORS BILT: http://www.joinbilt.com/BIGTHING LIQUIDIV: GET 20 PERCENT OFF http://www.LiquidIV.com CODE: BIGTHING
