America's health is in danger. We're not testing our food, water and drugs like we should. We're limiting access to vaccines. We aren't testing for covid or bird flu or any other communicable illness going around, and the people in charge of our health from the Administrator of the Centers of Medicare and Medicaid to the Surgeon General are on a spectrum from quack science to anti science. On top of it all we have the MAHA movement on the rise with the power and financial grift of non-doctor, non-scientist RFK Jr. which will ultimately do the opposite of make America healthy. To discuss how much the group in charge of our health is actually bad for our health, we are joined today by Dr. Anahita Dua a cardiovascular surgeon, associate professor of surgery, and founder of Healthcare for Action.

In this Episode I compare healthcare costs and outcomes of many western countries. Then I compare Natropathic VS Alopathic medicine, and how that would fit into our current medical framework. Later I talk about Big Pharma lawsuits, and the struggle between profit and well-being. Big Pharma Lawsuits: 2001 - TAP Pharmaceutical Products - Lupron (Puberty Blocker / Cancer Drug) $875 Million - Medicare Fraud, Kickbacks 2004 - Pfizer - Neurontin (Anti Seizeure) $430 Million total - Criminal and Civil - False Claims Act 2014 - $190M again, because they didn't stop! And, another payment of $325M when the lawyers found the scope of the fraud 2007 - Amgen - Aranesp Enbrel, Neulasta (promote red blood vessel production) $612M Civil / $150M Criminal (Promoting off-label uses) 2011 - Merk - Viox (Anti-inflamitory) $950M Civil Settlement (caused heart attacks) 2012 - GlaxoSmithKline - 10 Medications Paxil, Wellbutrin, and Avandia 3 Billiion (1B Crim / 2B Civil) Falseifying Data, Promotion of Pediatric Use 2013 - Johnson & Johnson - Risperdal (antipsychotic) $1.72B Criminal / $485M Criminal (men grew breasts, not good for elderly) 2015 - Takeda - Actos (Diabetes Drug) $2.4B Civil lawsuit (Caused bladder cancer / heart attack / stroke) 2019 - Bayer & J&J - Xarelto (Blood thinner) $775m Civil (Stroke & Death) Then I look at the murder of Brandy Vaughan by Merk, and how she was an effective community organizer. In a Facebook post dated December 4 of 2019, Vaughan asks: "Ever wonder why I speak out against Big Pharma and suffer the major consequences? Because I will fight for my son and humanity and I will educate people on pharmaceutical product dangers until my last breath!” Dec 7th, 2020 Brandy Vaughan was murdered https://learntherisk.org/

This isn't exactly the radical message one would expect from a primary physician from Columbia, Maryland. But according to Dr Andy Lazris, co-author of A Return to Healing, Big Pharma wields an iron grip on the American healthcare system. And it's only by aggressively challenging the control of the pharmaceutical industry, Lazris says, that we can begin to reform the system. Lazris discusses how pharmaceutical companies heavily influence healthcare through funding medical organizations, research, and federal agencies like the CDC and FDA. He advocates for a return to patient-centered medicine with longer appointment times and less emphasis on unnecessary tests and medications. He suggests three core reforms: removing pharmaceutical influence from federal agencies, changing Medicare reimbursement to favor primary care over procedures, and increasing Medicare funding for primary care residency programs. Interestingly, Lazris views RFK Jr.'s health agency cuts as chaotic, but potentially beneficial.Five Key Takeaways from Andy Lazris's Interview* Pharmaceutical Industry Influence: The pharmaceutical industry has excessive influence over healthcare, including federal agencies (CDC, FDA), medical associations, academic research, and treatment protocols, prioritizing profit over patient wellbeing.* Primary Care Crisis: Primary care physicians are a "dying breed" despite their importance, as they face burnout from administrative burdens, quality metrics, protocol constraints, and insufficient time with patients.* Protocol-Driven Medicine: Doctors are increasingly forced to follow standardized protocols and quality indicators rather than providing individualized care, with financial penalties for not adhering to these guidelines.* Patient-Centered Reform: Lazris advocates for a return to healing through longer patient visits (40 minutes), focusing on lifestyle factors like diet and exercise (duh), and reducing unnecessary testing and medication.* Actionable Reforms: Lazris proposes three immediate reforms: eliminating pharmaceutical influence in federal agencies, restructuring Medicare reimbursement to favor primary care over procedures, and increasing Medicare funding for primary care residency programs.Dr. Andy Lazris is a physician Board Certified in Internal Medicine. He has practiced both primary care Internal Medicine and Geriatrics for the past 30 years. In addition to Internal Medicine board certification, he has a Certified Medical Director (CMD) degree and is the director of several long term care facilities in Howard County and beyond. He also is a certified wound specialist physician with a CWSP degree. Dr. Lazris is a Magna Cum Laude and Phi Beta Kappa graduate of Brown University. He received a full merit scholarship to Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York and completed his Internal Medicine training at University of Virginia Hospital. In 2021 and 2022 Dr. Lazris received the prestigious Top-Doc recognition in Geriatrics for the Baltimore region. In 2022 he was named one of America's most honored doctors. He has received numerous accolades and awards for his practice of medicine, his writing, and his work to reform health care.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators.

The third-party payer system for healthcare in the United States isn't as broken as you think…it's much, much worse. Although virtually every American citizen has had to contend with the needlessly yet deliberately complex circus of healthcare insurance, few have dug down as deep as author Frank Lobb to uncover the truth of how the system works. In this episode of The Patient First Podcast, Frank and I discuss the chronic illness afflicting the American Healthcare System and exchange insights from our unique perspectives and experiences. As Frank explains in this interview—and details in his latest book—healthcare providers across the nation owe it to patients everywhere to understand what we are all really up against. This is an episode that anyone who has ever been a dental or medical patient absolutely must watch.

Send us a textThe transformative power of lived experience drives Monique Allen's mission to revolutionize healthcare access for Native American communities. As a woman who defied doctors' predictions that she wouldn't survive past age 12, Monique has channeled her personal health journey into founding Ma'at Enterprises, a tribally-owned healthcare staffing company serving Indian Health Service facilities nationwide.Named after the Egyptian concept representing truth, balance, and justice, Ma'at embodies Monique's servant leadership philosophy. Her connection to this work deepened upon discovering her own Native American heritage through her mother's tribal connections in Oklahoma, bridging her healthcare expertise with a profound understanding of tribal communities' needs and historical challenges.What sets Ma'at Enterprises apart is Monique's nuanced approach to partnership. Rather than imposing solutions, she builds trust by respecting tribal sovereignty and ensuring communities maintain ownership of their healthcare journey. This stands in stark contrast to broken promises that have characterized much of the historical relationship between government agencies and Native Nations. As Monique powerfully states, "We are not just trying to colonize your data... we want to partner with you."The innovative services Ma'at provides extend beyond traditional staffing to include partnerships with Hospitals Without Borders for rapidly deployable modular clinics, telehealth solutions for remote communities, and connections to cutting-edge diagnostic technologies. These approaches address the stark reality that in 2025, many tribal reservations still lack basic infrastructure like clean water and reliable internet access.Guided by her faith and commitment to authentic service, Monique carefully vets potential collaborations to ensure alignment with Ma'at's mission. Her goal is clear: to become a trusted resource for Native American communities by proving reliability through demonstrated action rather than empty promises. Through this work, she's not just delivering healthcare services – she's helping to heal historical wounds while building pathways to a healthier future for Indigenous communities across America.Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!

Care More Be Better: Social Impact, Sustainability + Regeneration Now
The social and economic inequity in the United States is clearly evident just by looking at the current state of the American healthcare system. It is broken in so many areas and highly ineffective in addressing the actual needs of the people, leaving many citizens to live in constant suffering. Thankfully, today's tech innovations could offer some solutions to this massive problem. Joining Corinna Bellizzi is social change futurist Sheila Phicil, founder of Phicil-itate Change LLC, who is building a blockchain-powered platform that could fix the many issues of the healthcare system. She explains why the main problem lies in the blatant disregard for values, not in the lack of financial support. Sheila also offers some ways of making healthcare equally accessible to everyone, even to people of color, underserved communities, and minority groups who are always exploited when it comes to well-being.About Guest:Sheila Phicil is a social change futurist™, health equity expert, and founder of Phicil-itate Change LLC, empowering social innovators to create measurable impact.

Last week, UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was shot to death outside a hotel in Manhattan by a young man motivated by rage at the insurance industry. His rage is clearly felt widely. In the aftermath of the killing, many people seemed to delight in the man's assassination. Their reaction was a grotesque illustration of something real: There is an enormous amount of anger and frustration about the state of American health care. And there ought to be. The U.S. is the most expensive health care system in the world, while for many people it delivers bad care at exorbitant prices. But anger is not always a signal of accuracy. And while some of the most popular reasons to be furious at American health care are based on truth, many are based on misunderstandings and myths—especially about the insurance system. This week, I wanted to present a calm and informed conversation with a health care expert to walk me through what I consider the biggest health care questions of the moment. Why are American health care costs so high? How much are insurers to blame? How do other countries handle health care differently? What can we learn from them? And what, if anything, should make us optimistic about the future of American health care? Today we have two guests. First we have Jonathan Gruber, an economics professor at MIT and a key architect of several health care laws, including the 2006 Massachusetts health care reform and the Affordable Care Act. Jon walks me through the key drivers of health inflation and American anger at the health care system. The second, David Cutler, is an economics professor at Harvard who served as senior health care adviser for Barack Obama; he helps us think comparatively about the weaknesses and strengths of the U.S. health system and what reforms could help Americans live longer and healthier lives.
