Podcasts about affordability

In early 2025, massive funding cuts from USAID sent shockwaves through the global development sector, leaving many to wonder what would come next. The money was gone, but the problems remained. In this follow-up conversation, Dimagi Managing Directors Gillian Javetski and Ismaïla Diene rejoin the podcast to discuss the aftermath and the unexpected "diamonds" created from the pressure. They share how the crisis forced a pivot from large, custom-built projects to a new model centered on radical simplicity, focus, and affordability. This candid discussion explores the divergence happening among digital public goods, the necessity of sustainable business models, and why the most important question is no longer "what new feature can we build?" but "can we make the existing value radically cheaper?". Discover how this shift led Dimagi to a bold new offering: a national-scale community health information system (eCHIS) for just $5,000 a month—a fraction of the historical cost.Related Resources:What's New in CommCare Webinar recordingThe Next Generation Electronic Community Health Information System (eCHIS) DeckCommCare Provider programBig Enough.

This episode of the Astonishing Healthcare podcast features a unique client of ours - Andy Glade, Senior Director of Trade Operations at Valeris. We discussed how to remove financial barriers to care and streamline access to the medications people need through the use of copay cards, vouchers, and patient assistance programs (PAPs). In a rapidly evolving market, these programs play an important role in reducing prescription abandonment and increasing adherence in convenient ways, particularly for chronic conditions and when extremely expensive specialty medications are prescribed.Additional highlights from the conversation with Andy include:How modern technology - Judi® - helps make life easier by giving the Valeris team control and the flexibility to quickly design programs, test new features, and monitor their programs through detailed reporting.How copay cards help with brand-name prescription drugs, especially those with higher price tags or drugs that are on the higher tiers of insurance (where out-of-pocket costs can be significant): "They're super common in competitive drug categories like diabetes, or asthma, or psoriasis, where multiple branded drugs are fighting for market share."What the patient pays: these programs differ in terms of cost for patients, but all are designed to improve access. Some programs have a maximum dollar amount or a limit on the number of fills you can get; others are more flexible and don't have a cap at all.An astonishing - but all too common - example of a patient who was able to overcome embarrassment and access an expensive branded injectable at no cost.Related Content12 New Judi® Features Innovating Pharmacy Benefit AdministrationReplay: The Future of Health Benefit Design: How Judi® Powers Seamless Care and Better OutcomesAH081 - Promoting Competition & Innovation: The Push for PBM Reform, with Rep.

Send us a textGrowth doesn't wait for perfect alignment, and neither should we. This conversation with Mayor Michele Randall digs into the choices shaping Southern Utah right now: a Northern Corridor designed to relieve real congestion, a beloved Zone Six worth protecting, and a Western Corridor that shouldn't split SunRiver's sense of place. We walk the ground-level details—UDOT influence, MPO dynamics, SITLA's school-funding mandate, and federal timelines—so you can judge the trade-offs with clear eyes.We also trace how traffic and housing connect. St. George's topography and past land-use shifts created choke points that neighborhood commercial can finally ease. Think daily needs embedded near homes, fewer cross-town trips, and smarter corridors that carry regional growth without turning downtown into a freeway. On the housing front, Michele backs practical flexibility: ADUs in every zone, mixed-style neighborhoods, studio and mid-rise apartments near jobs like Tech Ridge, and a faster, clearer path through approvals. Affordability isn't solved by slogans—it's zoning, timing, and supply that work together.Budgets matter because priorities do. You'll hear the unvarnished timeline behind the proposed property tax increase, why the council reversed course at truth-in-taxation, and how the city still funded core public safety—new stations, equipment, and a majority of planned positions—by cutting elsewhere and tapping capital funds. We get into the city's new budgeting approach where council priorities lead and departments build to outcomes: safer streets, maintained roads, reliable parks, responsive services.Along the way, we confront labels and look at leadership. Michele argues that a nonpartisan mayor meets with everyone, protects heritage with context (from national historic status for the Sugar Loaf and the “D” to a new interpretive trail), and keeps the focus on what makes daily life better. She addresses attendance rumors head-on, shares her health journey, and emphasizes how city work continued seamlessly with strong staff and open channels—public comment rebuilt, online submissions live, and direct contact by phone and email.Please make sure you like and subscribe, share it with other voters throughout Washington County to help them make informed decisions in the upcoming election.

Stephen Grootes speaks to Prof Samson Mamphweli, Head of the Department of Science, Technology and Innovation’s Energy Secretariat at SANEDI, and Chris Yelland, managing director, EE Business Intelligence, about the government's investigation into South Africa’s electricity prices. Mamphweli explains that the review, led by SANEDI, is examining whether tariffs are fair and cost-reflective, with particular focus on fixed charges that hit poorer households hardest. In other interviews, Verona Pillay, Lead Technical Advisor at Financial Services, chats about the looming affordability crisis as South Africans face double-digit medical aid premium hikes in 2026.

Australia's housing market is at a crossroads. For first-home buyers, the dream of ownership has never felt further away – with deposits taking more than 8 years to save and mortgage repayments eating up over half of disposable incomes.

This week, NY1's Errol Louis joined Democratic mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani for a walking tour of Astoria, Queens. Their conversation focused on the city's affordability crisis, while also touching on topics ranging from property tax reform and rent stabilization to the challenges facing small businesses. Mamdani outlined his multi-pronged strategy: freezing rents, reducing insurance costs, overhauling the property tax system and expanding city support for local businesses. This marks the second in a series of neighborhood tours with leading mayoral candidates. Errol previously walked with Andrew Cuomo in his native Holliswood neighborhood in Queens, and NY1 is hoping to have similar conversations with Curtis Sliwa and Mayor Eric Adams.

This is Part 2 of our conversation with Dr. Alex Stewart of The Market Distillery. In this conversation, Ian and Matt sit down with Dr. Alex Stewart of The Market Distillery to tackle one of the biggest challenges today: affordability. Together, they distill insights on the housing market, connect the dots between real estate agents and custom home builders, and explore how collaboration can create better outcomes for clients.

Mark Fleming, chief economist at First American, says rate cuts are not a panacea for the housing market, especially because Americans got used to nearly 50 years of declining mortgage rates until they moved from the 3% level up to their 6% range over the last few years. Now — with consumers feeling like they have golden handcuffs in older, low-rate mortgages — Fleming says gains will be slow, because improved affordability will need to be driven by income growth among consumers, and paychecks will have to increase at a rate faster than home-price appreciation to overcome rate concerns.  Dan Wiener, former chairman and chief executive at Adviser Investments (now RWA Wealth Partners) — the long-time editor of The Independent Adviser for Vanguard Investors — discusses the piece he wrote for Barron's this week, "I Learned the Hard Way: Private Investments Probably Don't Belong in Your Portfolio," and discusses why he thinks that recent law changes that make alternatives more accessible in retirement plans are good for financial companies but bad for consumers. Research analyst Matt Zajechowski discusses a recent study showing that consumers recognize that it is their spending habits, more than inflation and market conditions, that is behind financial woes. Nearly three-quarters of Americans blame themselves for credit card debt.

Affordability has become one of the hottest issues on the campaign trail. And Michael Pope tells us housing advocates are worried about people who are “rent burdened.”

Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson brings her vision for Michigan's future to The Common Bridge, outlining why she's running for governor in 2026 and what she hopes to accomplish for the state's citizens.At the heart of Benson's campaign is a commitment to making Michigan "the best place to be a kid, raise a kid, and call home." As a mother raising an eight-year-old son in Detroit, she understands firsthand the challenges facing Michigan families. "The work we do over the next 10 years is going to define his future and the future of our loved ones throughout the state," she explains, highlighting the urgency behind her candidacy.Affordability emerges as the cornerstone of Benson's platform. From cherry farmers in Traverse City who can't afford housing near their work to Detroit families struggling with utility bills, economic anxiety touches every corner of the state. Benson proposes tackling these challenges through strategic investments in affordable housing, healthcare access, and public education while making government work more efficiently for citizens—something she's demonstrated as Secretary of State by modernizing services and eliminating wait times.The conversation explores Michigan's potential transformation from the "Rust Belt" to what Benson calls the "Innovation Belt." Her vision includes ambitious infrastructure projects like high-speed rail connecting major cities, making Michigan "the small business capital of the nation," and developing talent pipelines through education and workforce training. This economic strategy aims to reverse Michigan's population decline by creating communities where people want to build their futures.What distinguishes Benson's approach is her commitment to collaboration across partisan lines. Having won her 2022 election by 14 points—carrying counties other Democrats couldn't win—she emphasizes the importance of listening to all voices and finding common ground. "No one party has all the ideas," she says, rejecting the polarization that dominates much of today's political discourse.As Michigan's chief election officer who improved the state's ranking from 31st to 2nd in election administration, Benson understands how good governance builds trust. Her campaign represents an opportunity to demonstrate that politics can still be about solving problems rather than stoking division—a message that resonates in these challenging times.Whether you're concerned about economic opportunity, education, infrastructure, or the political climate, Benson's conversation offers a thoughtful perspective on Michigan's challenges and potential solutions.

Since, 2019, groceries prices are up 30.8%, housing prices are UP 60%, healthcare costs are UP 60%, and child-care costs are UP 32%. Want to guess how much wages are up? That's right - ONLY 23%. For the average American, wages simply haven't kept pace with the bigger ticket items in life - and that presents a problems. It's why many young people feel a sense of despair - that they will NEVER get ahead. Ladies & gentlemen, what we have here is an AFFORDABILITY CRISIS! Ironically, God has a LOT to say about money and finances - and God is bothered when the rich and powerful play by a different set of rules or when they systematically oppress the poor, so that they can become richer and more powerful. In this message, Max Vanderpool explains that the rich rule over the poor - it's true - but that doesn't mean God's happy about it.

Logan breaks down how he defines and tracks “meaningful conversations” (about 100 per month) to focus only on activities that move deals forward. He explains his Kansas City strategy, why creative structures beat chasing yesterday's cap rates, and how he blends AI with CRE fundamentals to deliver same-day portfolio and market analyses clients love. Key Topics Meaningful conversations → measurable pipeline: How Logan defines, tracks, and protects time for high-value chats with owners, investors, vendors, and tenants. “Land squatting” for flex industrial: Adapting Neil Bawa's idea—option raw land, drive entitlements/rezoning, line up build-to-suit users, and package “paper lots” or fully approved sites. AI as an edge (with verification): Using frameworks, proprietary data, and tools to create 10–12 page portfolio audits in ~35 minutes—then spot-checking outputs before client delivery. Why Kansas City works: Affordability, logistics (rail and 2-day truck reach to ~80% of the U.S.), supply-constrained multifamily, and surging data-center development.   - Get Interviewed on the Show! - ================================== Are you a real estate investor with some 'tales from the trenches' you'd like to share with our audience?

It's the kind of projection that makes people question whether Australia's property market can really keep growing the way it has for the past 45 years.
