Podcasts about APC

Before the 2023 presidential election, the APC's Muslim-Muslim ticket sparked intense national debate over issues of inclusion, religious balance, and national unity. Now, with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu once again nominating Vice President Kashim Shettima as his running mate for the 2027 election, the debate has returned to the spotlight. Join us on Nigeria Daily as we examine whether the Tinubu-Shettima administration's performance over the past three years has addressed the concerns many Nigerians raised before the 2023 election.

CEO of the Australian Pharmacy Council Bronwyn Clark sits down with AJP Podcast host Carlene McMaugh to talk about full scope, training, interprofessional collaboration and more “Full scope is obviously super, super important and very exciting time for us here in Australia,” Clark says. “So our role at the APC is to be the national accreditation and standard setting body for education and training for pharmacists. “And so when we are looking at how we can support full scope, it's really top of mind for us and we're putting a lot of work and effort into collaborating with people to do this work. “I think the key thing around the challenges with these programs has been around making sure that we have graduates who have the right level of competence and capability to be able to deliver full scope and prescribing regardless of where they are.” Highlights include 01:40 – The biggest challenges in creating agile standards 04:50 – Will accreditation be applied nationally? 06:05 – “It will be a bit like optometry.” 11:10 – Harmonising the standards 15:46 – Could the traditional four-year plus internship model be replaced? 20:46 – Ensuring potential new programs are rigorous 23:21 – A new set of learning models for preceptors and supervisors 26:17 – Changes to the intern written exam 28:22 – “You're actually assessing someone’s competence as opposed to their ability to remember.” 30:19 – The colloquium and its focus on respectful, inclusive conversations 34:41 – Changes to accreditation for CPD activities 37:35 – Does this shift create uncertainty? 39:19 – “The APC is very committed to this strategy of embedding cultural safety” 42:37 – The APC is nominated as a finalist in the leading tech awards in Australia 45:08 – The workforce crisis You can access the full transcript of this podcast here.

In this episode, Andrew Kantor is joined by federal lobbyist David Pore and PCCA's Amy Shank to examine the proposed SAFE Act and its potential impact on compounding pharmacies. The discussion explores concerns that the bill could restrict patient access to compounded medications during drug shortages, impose new limitations on 503A pharmacies, and disproportionately affect legitimate compounders while failing to address bad actors. The episode also unpacks the legislation's connection to GLP-1 demand, adverse event reporting, and the bipartisan politics surrounding the bill, while encouraging listeners to stay engaged in APC's advocacy efforts.

The deadline for political parties to submit their presidential nominations is fast approaching, prompting a flurry of last-minute activity and, in some cases, lingering uncertainty over candidate lists and running mates.

In this sermon series on Stewardship Parables, that the Lord Jesus taught we examine the parable of the wise servant. We gain a Biblical understanding of stewardship and the five responsibilities of stewardship. We discuss the three characteristics of good stewardship - being faithful, wise, committed. We also uncover the three wrong attitudes in stewardship: complacency, abuse and self-indulgence. We learn that good stewardship is to know, prepare and do the Master's will. All of us are stewards of the gifts, grace and mysteries (revelation) God has given to each of us. Each of us must fulfill our calling as stewards of what God has entrusted to us in gifts, grace and His mysteries now revealed to us.

The opposition says it is determined to unseat the ruling APC in 2027. But can it achieve that if one of the platforms expected to play a major role is caught in a legal battle?A recent court ruling has thrown the future of the NDC into uncertainty, prompting questions about what happens if the party eventually loses its registration. Would that derail Peter Obi's political ambitions? Would it affect ongoing talks among opposition figures? Or is this simply another legal hurdle that can be overcome?In this episode of Nigeria Daily, we examine what the court's decision really means, what the opposition is saying, and whether Nigeria's political landscape could change before the next general election.

In Scripture God uses elements of nature to reveal certain aspects about His nature and His Person. We see many examples in Scripture: God is a consuming fire (Hebrews 12:29), like the wind (John 3:8), like the river (John 7:37-39), etc. One interesting element in nature that God uses to reveal aspects of Himself is lightning. Lightning is one of the Bible's symbols of the immediate manifestation of God's glory, holiness, power, authority, judgment, revelation, victory, and supernatural activity. It communicates that heaven is breaking into the earthly realm with irresistible power. In this sermon we review the significance and comparisons of lightning when used in Scripture to speak of various aspects of God and heavenly beings. The Lightnings of God represent: God's glory, the Suddenness of His working, the Power, the Holiness, His Revelation and His deliverance. God doesn't just have lightning; lightning issues from His presence, His throne, or His hand. He is the Source. When God acts, heaven's power is manifested with brilliance, authority, and unstoppable effect. Watch our online Sunday Church service live stream every Sunday at 10:30am (Indian Time, GMT+5:30).

Meredy Ayers from the Alliance for Pharmacy Compounding joins host John Beckner in the studio for a two-part conversation on the ever-expanding role of pharmacy technicians.   In part two, Ayers outlines the biggest takeaways from her two decades in community pharmacy and how her understanding of patient care translates to association work. Beckner and Ayers engage in a discussion on compounding and the benefit it brings to patients. The episode concludes with a discussion on APC's role in the profession, and the value of advocacy. 

Turning Pain Points Into Innovation | Dr. Prakash Gatta FULL DESCRIPTION Dr. Prakash Gatta is a foregut and esophageal surgeon who built his hospital's surgical program from zero — and then built two healthcare technology companies from the pain points he kept running into in the OR. In this episode of BOSS: Business of Surgery, host Dr. Amy Vertrees talks with Dr. Gatta about what happens when surgeons stop waiting for someone else to solve the problems they see every day. Company #1: Uncover — Dr. Gatta serves as VP of Clinical Affairs for this AI-powered surgical documentation platform. Uncover analyzes intraoperative video in real time and generates detailed, accurate operative notes automatically. Poor operative notes correlate with worse patient outcomes and cause 15-20% undercoding on procedures — a financial gap that affects both surgeon compensation and hospital facility fees. Uncover closes that gap by turning video into documentation, identifying missed CPT codes, modifier 22s, and APC codes that surgeons never capture. Company #2: EmpowerMedical.ai — Dr. Gatta founded this physician financial transparency platform to answer a question most surgeons have never been able to ask: how much money do I actually generate for my hospital? Using publicly available CMS data and hospital-disclosed pricing, the platform converts a surgeon's case list into a complete financial picture — professional fees, facility revenue, payer mix, DRGs, APCs, and contribution margin. A surgeon performing 124 high-level hernia repairs generates $464,000 in professional fees and $12 million in total system revenue. Most surgeons have no idea. Dr. Gatta wants to make this tool free for all trainees entering practice. The conversation also covers Dr. Gatta's remarkable personal story: born in India, raised in Kuwait during the Gulf War, self-evacuating as a 13-year-old refugee, medical school in Bombay, and arriving in the US in 2000 for surgical training under pioneer Lee Swanstrom in Portland.

 The Ekiti State governorship election has been concluded, with incumbent governor Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji of the APC securing another four-year mandate after defeating candidates of the PDP, ADC, and other political parties.But even as celebrations begin, questions remain over whether the opposition will accept the outcome and whether allegations of vote-buying and electoral irregularities could end up in court. Join us in this episode of Nigeria Daily as we examine the reactions from the major political parties and what the Ekiti election could mean for the 2027 general elections. 

We can only walk with God, experience and encounter Him, if we walk in agreement with Him. One of the areas where we must be in agreement with God is in the words we speak. We must learn to declare who God is and what He has promised. When we do so, we are positioning ourselves to encounter His presence.

For years, political defections have remained a recurring feature of Nigeria's democratic journey, with politicians frequently moving from one party to another after winning elections.Now, the National Democratic Congress, NDC, has introduced a policy requiring all candidates seeking elective offices on its platform to sign anti-defection affidavits and indemnity forms, committing themselves to vacate their seats if they leave the party after winning elections.The move has sparked fresh debate about political loyalty, party discipline and whether elected officials should be allowed to retain their mandates after defecting from the parties on which they were elected.Join us in this episode of Nigeria Daily as we examine why the NDC introduced the policy, what it hopes to achieve, and whether anti-defection affidavits can help strengthen Nigeria's democracy ahead of the 2027 elections.

Meredy Ayers from the Alliance for Pharmacy Compounding joins host John Beckner in the studio for a two-part conversation on the ever-expanding role of pharmacy technicians.   In part one, Ayers outlines the trajectory of her career from an advanced credential technician to her current role as events and engagement manager with APC. Beckner and Ayers dive into the value of advanced credentials, particularly immunization, for a technician and pharmacist's practice. Ayers cites collaboration between pharmacists and technicians as key to the future of the profession and details what she sees as the difference between a good versus great technician. 

For years, political parties have served as the platforms through which politicians seek power, build alliances, and contest elections in Nigeria.Now, a Federal High Court ruling directing INEC to deregister the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and four other political parties has sparked fresh debate about the future of opposition politics and democratic competition ahead of the 2027 general elections.Join us in this episode of Nigeria Daily as we examine what the ruling means for the ADC, the politicians aligned with the party, including former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, and the future of Nigeria's political landscape.

The proposal for a single six-year presidential term in Nigeria is once again dominating national conversations, sparking heated debate across political circles, governance experts, and social media platforms.At the heart of the discussion is a major question: Should Nigeria consider a six-year single term presidency as part of constitutional reform, or is it a dangerous shift that could weaken democratic accountability?The idea, which has resurfaced amid ongoing Nigeria constitutional amendment debates, touches on key issues such as electoral reform in Nigeria, presidential tenure limits, governance stability, and democratic accountability in Africa's largest democracy.Supporters say a single-term presidency in Nigeria could reduce the pressure of re-election politics, lower election costs, and allow leaders to focus fully on governance. Critics, however, warn it could reduce voter power, weaken checks and balances, and reshape Nigeria's democratic structure in ways that may not serve public interest.And so today on Nigeria Daily, we ask the big question trending across Nigerian politics, 2026 political news, constitutional reform Nigeria, and election reform discussions:

In this episode of the Mic On Podcast, Seun Okinbaloye sits with Solomon Dalung, former Minister of Youth and Sports Development and legal practitioner, who shares his views on coalition politics, governance, and the 2027 elections.Dalung discusses the challenges facing the ADC coalition, criticizes recent political realignments, and argues that growing insecurity and public dissatisfaction have weakened confidence in the current administration. He also reflects on his role in the formation of the APC, expressing disappointment with the party's performance in government.Looking ahead to 2027, Dalung urges Nigerians to prioritize competence over party loyalty and remain actively engaged in the electoral process, describing the next election as a defining moment for the country's future.Guest:Solomon Dalung(Former Minister of Youth and Sports Development / Legal Practitioner)

This episode we look at some of the latest compounding news, and then we've got a deep dive into state-level legislation with the Leading Ladies of Pharmacy Compounding Advocacy. What bills are being introduced? What do they really mean when you read the detail? How will they affect state policies, and what could come next? And, of course, how are APC and compounding pharmacies fighting back against the bad bills that put patients at risk? If you're a compounder, if you have patients who use compounded medications, or if you're a patient yourself, you'll want to hear this.

Across Nigeria's political landscape, party primaries are often described as the foundation of democracy within political parties. They determine who gets the ticket, who flies the party's flag, and ultimately who appears before voters on election day.But what happens when influential politicians lose those primaries? Should party leaders step in to help them find a way back, or should the verdict of delegates remain final?Recent developments within the APC have sparked fresh debate about the sanctity of party primaries, the powers of party leadership, and the future of internal democracy in Nigeria.Today on Nigeria Daily, we ask: When party primaries speak, should political leaders intervene?

In Nigeria's political space, internal party disputes are not new. But when those disputes move from party offices into the electoral arena, they raise far more serious questions.The Peoples Democratic Party, one of the country's biggest opposition platforms, is once again at the centre of such uncertainty. Competing factions within the party continue to lay claim to authority, raising concerns about who truly represents the PDP structure.But beyond the leadership struggle lies a more complex scenario what happens if rival factions of the same party go beyond disagreement and present separate candidates in an election?At that point, the issue is no longer just about party unity. It becomes a question of legality, recognition, and ultimately, where votes will go on election day.So today on Nigeria Daily, we examine the unfolding situation within the PDP, speak with a Daily Trust correspondent following the crisis closely, hear from a lawyer on the legal implications, and later, a political analyst helps us understand what this could mean for Nigeria's opposition politics going forward.

On this week's Political Breakfast: The campaign for billionaire healthcare CEO Rick Jackson confirmed with WABE he will NOT be part of Monday's Atlanta Press Club debate, in the battle for the Republican nomination in the Georgia governor's race. His opponent, Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones, is now prepared to face an empty podium on Monday afternoon at 2:45, and answer questions from a panel of journalists alone. He also criticized Jackson for not showing up on social media. Jackson's campaign cited a scheduling conflict: an event with Florida U.S. Sen. Rick Scott. The campaign said in a statement that the APC could not accommodate later dates, so Jackson has accepted Gray TV's invitation to debate on President Trump's birthday, or Flag Day on June 14th, "when runoff voters will be fully engaged and making a decision ahead of Election Day." Meanwhile, Democratic nominee and former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms dominated in the May primary with 56 percent of the vote. She will face either Jones or Jackson in November. Democratic strategist Tharon Johnson and Republican strategist Brian Robinson go live with host Lisa Rayam. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This episode featured @nigeriasbest and @phoenix_agenda They discussed:2027 General Election Primaries with a focus on APC

President Bola Tinubu promised bold reforms when he came into office, yet inflation is rising, food and transport costs are high, and security concerns remain. As he prepares to seek a second term, many are asking what that could mean for Nigeria.

The APC has concluded its presidential primary with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu emerging winner, but the entire primary season has triggered widespread debate over allegations of irregularities, manipulation, and the screening out of some aspirants, including sitting lawmakers and governors. Are party primaries still genuine democratic contests, or are candidates already selected before voting begins, and what does Nigerian law really say about who qualifies to contest within political parties? Join us in this episode of Nigeria Daily to find out.

In this episode of the Mic On Podcast, Seun Okinbaloye sits with Prof. Farooq Kperogi, scholar, journalist, and author, who shares his perspective on governance, opposition politics, and Nigeria's democratic future ahead of the 2027 elections.Kperogi weighs in on security appointments under the Tinubu administration, criticizes what he describes as ethnically biased appointments, and argues that the president has struggled with growing public dissatisfaction over economic hardship. He also says the opposition remains weakened by internal divisions, making it difficult to effectively challenge the ruling APC.Despite his criticism of both the government and the opposition, Kperogi expresses cautious optimism that political realignments and growing public awareness could strengthen democratic alternatives ahead of 2027.Guest:Prof. Farooq Kperogi(Scholar / Journalist / Author)

This week has been marked by intense political activity and rising internal tensions within the APC, as its primaries across House of Representatives, Senate, State Assembly, and governorship levels have been accompanied by complaints, protests, and allegations of irregularities. While some aggrieved aspirants have defected, others remain in the party with lingering dissatisfaction ahead of the upcoming presidential primary. On Nigeria Daily, we examine whether the APC is emerging stronger or heading into 2027 with deeper internal divisions.

For years in Nigerian politics, incumbency was seen as almost untouchable. Once you occupied political office, many believed securing another party ticket was only a formality. But the latest APC primaries across Nigeria have challenged that belief, as several serving lawmakers and political heavyweights lost their return tickets despite their influence and political structures. So, what really changed? Has the power of incumbency weakened, or are deeper political forces quietly reshaping the APC ahead of 2027? Today on Nigeria Daily, we examine why many incumbent office holders could not survive the APC primaries and what it could mean for Nigeria's political future.

As the 2027 general elections draw closer, the APC's recent House of Representatives primaries have raised concerns following reports of complaints, tensions, and allegations of irregularities.Some members rejected the outcomes, accusing the party of favouritism, while attention now shifts to upcoming Senate, governorship, and presidential primaries. On Nigeria Daily, we examine whether these disputes signal deeper internal crises for the APC and what they could mean for its 2027 election prospects.

As preparations for the 2027 elections intensify, debates around consensus candidates within the APC are growing, with some aspirants alleging they are being sidelined ahead of party primaries. Analysts warn that the increasing use of consensus arrangements could fuel internal divisions, trigger defections, and affect the party's electoral chances. On Nigeria Daily, we examine what APC's consensus politics could mean for the ruling party and Nigeria's democracy ahead of 2027. 

More than a decade after leaving office, former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan is once again becoming a major topic in Nigeria's political conversation.From social media campaigns to growing public debates, some Nigerians say the country needs Jonathan's leadership style back, while others believe Nigeria should focus on new political alternatives instead of returning to former leaders.But are these calls truly widespread among Nigerians… or simply driven by nostalgia and frustration with current realities?In this episode of Nigeria Daily, we examine the growing calls for Jonathan's return, what Nigerians really think about it, and whether such a comeback is politically realistic.

April 24, 2026In this episode, Scott, Mark, and Dr. Ray Painter break down the latest guidance on HCPCS code C9761 and the growing confusion around what qualifies for payment under this new technology APC. They walk through key interpretations from the AHA, AMA, and MACs, highlighting the critical distinction between steerable ureteral catheters, scopes, and access sheaths—and why that difference can determine whether a case is paid or denied. The discussion emphasizes the importance of precise physician documentation, understanding device labeling, and verifying payer-specific policies before billing.

Why Advanced Primary Care Doesn't Scale: Conflicting Incentives, Complacency, and a 3-Step Roadmap Stacey Richter interviews Ryan Jacobs (SVP Strategy and Partnerships, Marathon Health) on why evidence-backed advanced primary care (APC)—focused on managing risk, improving outcomes, and lowering costs—still isn't widespread.  They argue APC struggles to scale due to two root barriers: conflicting fiduciary duties (health systems and payers driven by volume, "heads in beds," and market-power growth, while APC keeps patients out of hospitals) and a "black box of complacency," where innovators often lose to the status quo because dominant organizations can rationally avoid investing without gaining share.  Jacobs offers a three-step roadmap: perform a reality-based assessment by following the money and identifying who is financially harmed by prevention; anticipate stakeholders' math by framing value as CFOs, benefits leaders, and plan sponsors do; and proceed from strategic conclusions such as direct contracting to bypass misaligned intermediaries.  === LINKS ===
