Health Insurance is Rigged & Controlled by the Big Companies w/ Donvan Ryckis of Ethos Benefits   - AZ TRT S06 EP10 (272) 6-15-2025              What We Learned This Week Health Insurance is primarily run by the Big 4 - BUCA: Blue Cross United Healthcare, CIGNA, Aetna To Insurance Co's – Premium = Revenue, and they are not going lower profits, so no incentive to lower costs Health insurance employer group plans can be broken down into 4 Parts Network PPO is what people typically think of when they think of health insurance There have been revisions to the Healthcare Act passed in 2021   Guest: Donovan Ryckis, Ethos Benefits https://ethosbenefits.com/   https://ethosbenefits.com/documentary/ https://businessofbenefitspodcast.com/   Our Ethos is Simple: Fiduciary First. Act in the best interest of those we serve—no matter the cost. ‘Ethos' represents the guiding principle, character, or spirit of a person or organization. It's the ‘why' that drives decision-making and fuel's purpose. Our Ethos is deeply rooted in the story of our Founder, Donovan Ryckis. Over a decade ago, Donovan, a fiduciary Series 65 securities advisor specializing in retirement and pension planning, was approached by a client facing a dire situation. The client's publicly traded broker claimed there was no solution for a staggering 37.5% health insurance renewal increase—a cost that threatened the business and its employees. With no prior experience in health insurance markets but guided by his unwavering fiduciary principles, Donovan took on the challenge. The result? He mitigated the risk entirely, delivering a solution 12% below the current rate. This allowed the business to thrive and ensured hundreds of employees wouldn't have to choose between basic necessities and skyrocketing health premiums. That moment sparked a revelation. The fraud, waste, and abuse Donovan had fought in retirement planning paled in comparison to the challenges in healthcare. He saw an opportunity to bring transparency and fiduciary principles to an industry in desperate need of change. Donovan pivoted his career, becoming one of the first fee-based health insurance advisors in the nation. By removing all conflicts of interest in broker compensation, he laid the foundation for what is now the leading innovative employee benefits agency in the country, delivering higher quality care at a significantly lower cost to employers nationwide.       Notes:   Ethos Benefits deals with employee benefits, with a primary focus on group health insurance   Per Donovan ‘Employee benefits are rigged'   Insurance company premium equals revenue. There is no incentive to lower cost, as it would lower profits.   ACA Obamacare passed in 2010, and it capped profits for insurance companies at 20%   Insurance Co's are working to expand their pool to make more profit   Health Insurance guarantees inflation keeps going up, so family of 4 could spend 35K a year   For a business, healthcare cost and employee benefits are a top 3 P&L expense   Ethos strategies can create a 30 to 40% reduction on premium impact to lower costs for a business   The HQ is in Florida, but they are a virtual office with agents and clients nationwide   Healthcare finance and delivery + Improving employee benefits     Seg 1   Donovan's bio, he was a financial advisor with a Series 65 license before he got into health insurance. Around 2014 he moved into health insurance seeing an opportunity for better service.   Typically you see agents who are working for the health insurance company and not really working for the employer companies they are selling to.   Health insurance is primarily run by the Big 4 – BUCA: Blue Cross United Healthcare, CIGNA, Aetna.   Health insurance employer group plans can be broken down into 4 Parts:   1.    TPA or third-party administrator 2.    Network PPO or HMO 3.    Pharmacy benefit RX 4.    Insurance that covers the caps the limits on the stop loss   PPO is your primary network and open on using referrals HMO is a non-preferred network typically has less offerings and tight on referrals   Ethos Benefits helps employers to break up the four parts of a group plan and customize   Network PPO is what people typically think of when they think of health insurance.   Network and the Big 4 health companies have a tighter deal with doctors and contract prices. A lot is pre-negotiated with a set of rates, which is the point of a PPO. This is where you get larger claims and they run in the system of healthcare.     Seg 2   Pay more for healthcare in the U.S. than the rest of the world   The biggest pharmaceutical companies are in the US Pharmaceutical companies in flight prices, and also set the prices They make money through spread pricing   Employers can actually pick up their own Pharma benefit and get the rebates that the big health insurance companies are not giving them   Healthcare system is a rigged game The fraud waste and abuse extremely high in health   401(k) and retirement benefit industry is actually tighter with more disclosure than the healthcare industry   Regulated better since the creation of the Securities Act in the 1930s and updates that ran through the 1970s and beyond with things like ERISA   There have been revisions to the healthcare act passed in 2021 - started in Jan.2022   Actions had 3 disclosures: ·         Brokers comp and bonus ·         Data with gag, clauses, and full access to data upon request ·         Benchmarking for drug cost     Further Notes via Google:   The revisions you are likely referring to are part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 (CAA). While the CAA was passed in late 2020, many of its provisions, including those related to transparency in healthcare, became effective on January 1, 2022.  The three key areas of disclosure you mentioned are directly addressed within these regulations: 1.            Broker's Compensation and Bonuses: The CAA amends ERISA Section 408(b)(2) and requires service providers, including brokers, to disclose specific information to group health plan fiduciaries. 2.            Data Transparency (Gag Clauses and Full Access to Data): The CAA prohibits gag clauses, which prevent plans from providing access to their data. It also requires health insurance carriers to attest annually to their compliance with this prohibition. Moreover, the Health DATA Act, a proposed bill, would further reinforce the right of employers to access their data and hold service providers accountable for non-compliance. 3.            Benchmarking for Drug Costs: The CAA includes provisions regarding pharmacy benefit and drug cost reporting, which aims to provide greater transparency and potentially lead to better benchmarking of drug costs. The Build Back Better Act, a separate piece of legislation, also included provisions for Medicare to negotiate drug prices, further impacting drug costs and potential benchmarking.  These revisions aim to increase transparency in healthcare pricing and empower consumers and employers to make more informed decisions about their healthcare coverage.    Seg 3   Ethos works with Employers to create business plans usually with a 3 to 5 year time horizon. The goal is long-term to lower healthcare cost.   Example would be a company with 100 employees with 50 to 80% of them on the health plan (does not include dependents).   Ethos wants to keep the demands of a company low, easy transition.   Ethos handles employee Qs and healthcare navigation. Ethos is full service.   Risk handled 1 of 4 ways - Reduce, avoid, retain, transfer - Transfer to insurance   Broker wants to transfer risk Company can control costs Careful not to have too much disruption with a switch to a new company   Ex - start with pharmacy part NDC National Drug Code Run report vs costs   Pharmacy benefit mgr   Pre packaged health plan Gets co approved pharmacy benefit Save 5 - 15% on costs (30%)   Separate - parts of group plan     Seg 4   Brokers comp - incentives from big insurance companies   Opening move - edit pharmacy benefit piece   State by state - regulators and rules   Employers / employees Know the network and PPO   Nationwide covers insurance part – Stop-loss Insurance   30-40 major stop loss companies Ex: Allstate Met Life Sun Life   Stop-loss insurance for group health plans acts as a financial safety net for self-funded employers, protecting them from large, unpredictable medical claims. It is a form of additional insurance.   Healthcare risk is incredibly predictable on group basis   Overall predictable w stats, actuarial analysis   Gag clauses look at dataset from current carrier   Prescription database sets   3rd party admin are less of a concern, lots of claims   Average of 18 claims per employee per year, includes dependents   Data - review AI Claims analytics software   AI claims analytics software is transforming how insurance companies handle claims by leveraging artificial intelligence and machine learning to analyze data, automate tasks, and improve decision-making.    30 - 40% reduction in premium w Ethos     Further Notes via Google: Group Medical Plans Breakdown of the common components of a comprehensive employer group health plan, particularly within the context of a self-funded model.  Here's a more detailed explanation of each part: 1.            TPA (Third-Party Administrator): A TPA is a company that provides administrative services for self-funded health plans. This includes processing claims, handling enrollment, and managing other administrative tasks that would typically be done by an insurance company. 2.            Network (PPO or HMO): This refers to the group of doctors, hospitals, and other healthcare providers that the health plan contracts with to provide services to its members. The network defines where employees can go to receive care and often dictates the level of coverage they will receive (e.g., in-network vs. out-of-network benefits). ·                                             PPO (Preferred Provider Organization): Offers more flexibility, allowing members to see out-of-network providers, though with higher out-of-pocket costs. ·                                             HMO (Health Maintenance Organization): Typically requires members to stay within the network for covered services, except in emergencies.                 Pharmacy Benefit (RX): This component manages the prescription drug coverage for the plan. It includes negotiating drug prices, processing claims for prescriptions, and managing the plan's formulary (list of covered drugs).                 Stop-Loss Insurance: This is a crucial element for self-funded employers. It protects the employer from catastrophic claim costs. If an individual employee or the entire group's claims exceed a certain threshold (the "attachment point"), the stop-loss insurance kicks in to cover the excess costs, limiting the employer's financial liability.  Additional Considerations: ·                     Data Access: Self-funded plans often provide employers with greater access to claims data, which can be used to analyze healthcare costs, identify trends, and implement strategies to improve employee health and manage costs. ·                     Benchmarking: Employers can use claims data and industry benchmarks to compare their plan's performance to similar organizations and negotiate better rates with providers and other vendors. ·                     Wellness Programs: Some employers offer wellness programs to encourage employees to adopt healthy behaviors and potentially reduce healthcare costs. ·                     Essential Health Benefits (ACA Compliance): Group health plans must comply with the Affordable Care Act (ACA), which requires them to cover a list of essential health benefits, such as outpatient care, emergency services, hospitalization, and prescription drugs. ·                     Other Benefits: Group plans can also include other benefits, such as dental, vision, life insurance, and long- and short-term disability insurance.  Understanding these different parts is essential for employers to effectively manage their group health plan, control costs, and provide valuable benefits to their employees.      Investing Shows: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Investing-Stocks-Bonds-Retirement       ‘Best Of' Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Best+of+BRT      Thanks for Listening.

  5 Types of Income to Create Infinite Income   - AZ TRT S06 EP09 (271) 5-25-2025              What We Learned This Week Multiple Streams of Income strategy 5 Types of Income – Career, Investment, Retirement Account, Pension, Tax Free Diversification of income provides you security and freedom Build Infinite Income thru initial investment, and profits pay off loans, then go on forever George Lucas created the Star Wars IP one time, and gets infinite returns from the movies & merchandise Real Estate, Business, and Insurance products are good assets for infinite income     Notes:   Segment 1: The 5 Types of Income – Why One Stream Isn't Enough Opening: The Economic Shift ·         The economic landscape has changed dramatically over the last 50 years. ·         While business and technology have advanced, personal finance education and systems haven't kept pace. ·         Inflation has significantly eroded purchasing power. ·         It's no longer the 1950s where one income could support a family of four. Now, two incomes are often required—and even then, many people have a third gig. The New Normal: Side Hustles & Financial Reality ·         According to recent stats, 70% of people need an additional income stream, often from a side business or freelance work. ·         30% of Americans hold a second job. ·         Among millennials, that number rises to 50%.     The Lesson from Robert Allen & Rich Dad, Poor Dad ·         Robert Allen's Multiple Streams of Income advocated for income diversification to gain safety and freedom. ·         Robert Kiyosaki's Rich Dad, Poor Dad emphasized acquiring income-producing assets—his favorite being real estate. The 5 Types of Income 1.    Career or Business Income Your primary, day-to-day W-2 income—pays the bills and covers monthly expenses. 2.    Investment Income Comes from appreciating or income-producing assets like real estate, stocks, or Bitcoin. 3.    Retirement Accounts Tax-deferred income sources like IRAs or 401(k)s—subject to rules and penalties but critical for long-term planning. 4.    Guaranteed Income Comes from pensions, annuities, or Social Security. Designed for lifetime income and stability. 5.    Tax-Free Income Generated through Roth IRAs or cash value from life insurance. You pay tax on the seed, not the harvest. Call to Action: ·         Make a list of which of the five types of income you currently have. ·         Strategize how to build the remaining ones for a balanced, resilient financial future. Analogy: Just like a business has multiple products or a sports team has multiple ways to score, individuals should have diverse income sources to win financially. Segment 2: Infinite Income – Building Streams That Never Run Dry What Is Infinite Income? ·         Infinite income is ongoing, residual income that continues long after the original work or investment. ·         It's the financial holy grail: put in work or money once, get paid over and over. Key Assets That Can Generate Infinite Income: ·         Tangible Assets: Real estate, businesses, stocks ·         Intangible Assets: Skills, knowledge, intellectual property (IP), network Examples of Infinite Income in Action 1. Real Estate ·         Buy a $250K property with 10% down ($25K). ·         Renters pay the mortgage; property appreciates. ·         Refinance later, pull out your original investment tax-free. ·         Continue collecting rental income even after loan is paid off. ·         Use refinance funds to buy more properties → Repeat → Scale. 2. Business Ownership ·         Start or buy a business using a loan. ·         Profits pay off the loan, then continue to generate revenue. ·         Later, use the business as collateral to expand or acquire another. 3. Life Insurance (IUL Strategy) ·         Fund a policy over time; cash value grows tax-deferred. ·         Take loans against the policy tax-free—used as supplemental retirement income. ·         Policy can also be a legacy tool, passing on wealth tax-free. 4. Intellectual Property (IP) ·         George Lucas with Star Wars—created once, profits for decades from merchandise and licensing. ·         Jeff Bezos still profits from Amazon stock, 30 years later. ·         Microsoft, McDonald's, Coca-Cola—IP and systems built once, revenue continues for decades. ·         DC Comics still profiting off Superman IP created in the 1930s. Key Principles for Building Infinite Income ·         Choose the Right Assets: Real estate, businesses, IULs—not just assets that appreciate, but ones that cash flow. ·         Leverage and Scale: Use debt wisely to scale income-producing assets. Wealthy individuals and private equity firms use this strategy constantly. o    Example: PE firms acquire HVAC companies, funeral homes, rental properties—assets that provide consistent 10%+ returns. ·         Use Tax Strategy to Your Advantage: o    Tax-free income is more efficient. o    Lowering your tax burden increases your net income immediately. o    Wealthy individuals use loans, Roths, and life insurance to optimize tax efficiency. Mindset Shift: ·         Don't chase just “buy low/sell high” assets. Instead, acquire harvestable assets—ones that generate regular income and can appreciate. ·         Build cash flow now, use it to reinvest in more assets—repeat the cycle. Closing Thought: ·         Control three things: Assets, Income, Taxes. ·         Master those, and you create not just wealth—but infinite income.     Investing Shows: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Investing-Stocks-Bonds-Retirement       ‘Best Of' Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Best+of+BRT      Thanks for Listening.

Dr. Jamie Wells is back—and this time, she brought a book. We cover everything from biomedical design screwups to the glorified billing software known as the EHR. Jamie's new book, A Clinical Lens on Pediatric Engineering, is a masterclass in what happens when you stop treating kids like small, drunk adults and start designing medicine around actual human factors. We talk about AI in pediatric radiology, why drug repurposing might save lives faster than biotech IPOs, and the absurdity of thinking one-size-fits-all in healthcare still works.Jamie's a former physician, a health policy disruptor, a bioethicist, an MIT director, and a recovering adjunct professor. She's also a unicorn. We dig into the wonk, throw shade at bad design, and channel our inner Lisa Simpsons. This one's for anyone who ever wondered why kids' hospitals feel like hell and why “make it taste like bubblegum” might be the most important clinical innovation of all time. You'll laugh, you'll learn, and you might get angry enough to fix something.RELATED LINKSJamie Wells on LinkedInBook: A Clinical Lens on Pediatric Engineering (Amazon)Book on SpringerDrexel BioMed ProfileGlobal Blockchain Business CouncilJamie's HuffPost ArticlesFEEDBACKLike this episode?

Artificial Intelligence (AI) – how the Algorithm Connects Us All Revisited AZ TRT 2.0 – S06 EP08 (270) 5-11-2025   What We Learned This Week: AI is inter-connected with so many technologies & you use AI often on a daily basis AI is a part of almost all industries from Healthcare, Finance to Defense Human in the Loop - humans will always be needed to Interpret the Data, but AI will assist Software Teams must be managed so the product is integrated properly in the bigger picture   Moore's Law – Each year computing power grows 2x as fast, but cuts the cost in half   Guests: Naru (Narendran Muraleedharan), CEO / Founder of StaxAI – formerly Inventives & Aptus AI https://stax.ai/   linkedin.com/in/naru95       Bio: At Stax.ai, we empower retirement plan TPAs to streamline operations, enhance productivity, and deliver exceptional client experiences. Our innovative platform automates census data collection, payroll integrations, trust accounting, and client communication, all while providing actionable insights through AI-driven tools. Trusted by TPAs managing thousands of plans, Stax.ai transforms administrative burdens into seamless workflows, enabling you to focus on what matters most—growing your business and strengthening client relationships.   Past Bio: Inventives / Aptus AI is a software solutions and artificial intelligence development and consulting firm. They provide aerospace, mechanical, and software engineering services to companies around the world. The Team is strong, and well-rounded consisting of engineers, developers, and physicists that focus on solving problems at the root. They help take ideas or concepts and build prototypes and deployments in very short periods of time with tight budgets while maintaining the best quality and client satisfaction. The main fields of expertise are RPA, Web App Development, Solutions Architecture, Artificial Intelligence, Computer Vision, and Simulation Systems.   Note**: This interview was recorded in Oct. 2021 (S02 EP 43 (90) 10-24-21), since then Naru has changed the company name. Also, the BRT podcast has changed to AZ Tech Roundtable.   Notes: Seg. 2 - 4 Naru returns to the show talking tech, software, and AI. His team is always developing new applications with AI in healthcare, finance, biotech, & aerospace. Naru shows how so many technologies are connected and what the future of business looks like. Inventives is the new company, with the same core technology team, but focusing the business into a venture studio by creating new AI projects for companies not yet using AI. Inventives new projects can become spinoff companies with this new technology.  They work with B2B clients and also Investors for these types of companies.   Radiology is a current project to enhance the patient experience using AI – called SKIP. This project is on the Operations side to make the patient process of paperwork, payments, etc. to be automated (& efficient) with AI working with the patient. This will be stand alone, but if adopted by other medical offices over the long term can streamline the healthcare industry. Naru and his team are working on document management, where their AI program will be able to read documents and determine what the info is. Rising Cloud is another project they are building that manages a company cloud usage to improve costs.   Moore's Law – Each year computing power grows 2x as fast, but cuts the cost in half Cloud Computing happens in the cloud and internet for your programming vs Edge Computing that happens right on your phone and does not need to go out to the cloud. Bigger the data request or process determines if Cloud or Edge is the best choice. People interact with AI (Artificial Intelligence) daily on their phone, email, internet search and beyond. User Agreements in your phone or websites you use say they can take your search data and use it to enhance your experience.   AI Search uses past searches by you, vs what are the popular other searches by other people on the internet. It happens so fast and has the best / popular search options loading before you are even done typing. This is called a Recommendation Engine, just like Netflix or Amazon find shows or products you may like. These recs are similar to what you have watched or bought previously, or in similar genres. The downside is you may not see different options, just more of the same. AI determines what you see daily on the internet, and can create a silo effect. Inventives uses a common solution, called Human in the Loop to review what the AI is doing. Then the searches or recommendations are reviewed to see how accurate they are.  Healthcare AI is assisting doctors, and even finding issues that humans have missed in a radiology study. AI has no bias, and does not get tired. The computer can repeat processes and be consistent.   Key technologies of the day are constantly overlapping – AI, Big Data, Cloud, SaaS Software, etc. This tech can work with each other, and new software can build on top of these applications. Open AI created a product with AI that builds AI software. Naru's Software Teams have different backgrounds of math, engineering or physics who are self taught on software and think more about the solution vs thinking in terms of coding. There are small groups of 2 to 4 people in a team with a Solutions Architect running the small team and determining how the software interacts in the bigger picture. Often some of the best software involved very small teams. Lot of testing and compliance control goes into to creating big software projects that can involve multiple teams. Same issue if building an upgrade to a software that merges with the previous version.   Rewind Clip (Seg. 1) – Replay of a segment from Naru's last appearance on BRT in 11/2020 He talks AI and the morality of the technology. How can a programmer control their product, and what it will be used for in the real world. Naru chose the name Aptus because it is Latin for Apt or Appropriate – design products that works for the clients Chaos Theory / Jurassic Park – Just because you can do it, doesn't mean you should Aptus gets defense contracts as sub-contractor of companies partnered with military. Aptus studies the end applications for what they are requested to build, to determine if they will take the project. Morality is considered, but not always applicable to see where a product may go until it is built. AI software is programmed to build more software, AI building more AI. Per Naru there are companies trying to develop AI weapons that can kill on their own, and robots being controlled by AI already. Aptus has Liability Insurance to protect their projects.       ‘Best Of' Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Best+of+BRT    Thanks for Listening.

Send us a textIn this episode, we sit down with Sonia Gupta, Partner and Co-Head of Biotech Investment Banking at Goldman Sachs. Sonia walks us through her unique journey—from studying public health at Brown, to working in healthcare consulting, to getting her MBA at MIT, and ultimately climbing the ranks at Goldman to become a senior leader advising some of the most innovative biotech companies in the world. We dive deep into what it's like to enter banking post-MBA, how her academic background shaped her approach to the job, and why healthcare—particularly biotech—is such a distinct and intellectually demanding coverage group.We explore the nuances of biotech investment banking: how to value companies that often have no revenue, how the space intersects with venture capital and tech, and why the work often feels more like strategic consulting than traditional M&A. Sonia breaks down the DCF models she and her team build—sometimes stretching 25 years—and the real-life decision-making that goes into supporting clients whose work could lead to the next blockbuster cancer drug or cure for a rare genetic disease. We also talk about how healthcare banking is segmented within the broader investment banking ecosystem and what it really means to be a “coverage banker” at Goldman.Finally, we discuss analyst exit opportunities, how banks like Goldman are thinking about retention, and what it's like building a career—and a family—while advising high-growth companies from San Francisco. Sonia's insights are thoughtful, candid, and inspiring, especially for anyone considering a career in investment banking or healthcare. Whether you're curious about the real-world utility of an MBA, the biotech IPO market, or what it means to grow into true subject matter expertise over time, this episode offers a fascinating window into one of the most complex and purpose-driven sectors on Wall Street.Our Investment Banking and Private Equity Foundations course is LIVEnow with our M&A course included!

Hace dieciséis años, Albert Jané y Òscar Expósito transformaron un laboratorio universitario en el punto de partida de un proyecto con una visión clara: unir ciencia y naturaleza para crear una nueva forma de entender la cosmética. Vytrus Biotech, nació en 2009, en la Facultad de Farmacia de la Universidad de Barcelona, con el objetivo de trasladar el conocimiento científico al sector cosmético mediante una propuesta diferencial e innovadora. Hoy en empresas cotizadas, Jordi Rovira, CFO y Miembro del Consejo de Administración de Vytrus Biotech, nos habla de la historia de la empresa, así como su presente y su futuro. En 2011, Vytrus logró un hito relevante en el ámbito nacional. La creación del primer ingrediente cosmético basado en células madre vegetales desarrollado en España. Este avance, junto con la confianza de los primeros inversores, permitió establecer las primeras instalaciones y unidades de producción. Entre 2013 y 2018, la compañía consolidó su proyección internacional. La biotecnología verde de Vytrus comenzó a integrarse en formulaciones cosméticas en Europa, Asia, América y Oceanía. Actualmente, sus ingredientes están presentes en más de 42 países. En marzo de 2022, otro hito marcó su trayectoria: la compañía comenzó a cotizar en el mercado BME Growth, especializado en pequeñas y medianas empresas con alto potencial de crecimiento. Este paso reforzó su compromiso con la transparencia, la sostenibilidad y la innovación. De cara a este año 2025, el invitado se muestra positivo, y a pesar de haber firmado un arranque de año excepcional, con una subida del 83% en el BME Growth, Jordi asegura que “confiamos en que el siguiente trimestre, el crecimiento sea superior”. Para ello, afirma medidas como duplicar la apuesta inversora para expandir la capacidad productiva”.

Drawing from his experience working with high-growth companies, Carlo shares real-world insights and practical tools for identifying bias and fostering intentional, inclusive workplace cultures. In this episode, you'll discover: How unconscious bias manifests in hiring, performance reviews, and leadership interactions. Strategies startups can use to identify pay gaps, support equitable leadership, and create feedback-safe environments. Why inclusive culture isn't a “later” priority—and how getting it right early can reduce turnover and accelerate growth. From subtle labels like “bossy” to structural decisions that perpetuate inequity, this episode offers clear-eyed advice for founders and executives ready to build better biotech companies.

Good morning from Pharma and Biotech daily: the podcast that gives you only what's important to hear in Pharma and Biotech world.Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s removal of all members of the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices has raised concerns about the upcoming meeting later this month. Analysts fear that the committee may become more sympathetic to anti-vaccine viewpoints. In other news, Merck has received FDA approval for an RSV antibody, Gilead has paused five HIV trials but Lenacapavir remains safe, and the FDA has reinstated a previously disbanded generic drug policy panel. Gilead has expressed faith in its HIV combo therapy and pledged to work with regulators to resolve the hold on its trials. In vitro cell research is focused on discovering interventions to slow aging and prevent age-related diseases.Kennedy's vaccine campaign is seen as breeding more distrust, while Metsera's weight loss injection has shown positive results. Merck is moving forward with an oral PCSK9 inhibitor. Thank you for tuning in to Pharma and Biotech daily for the latest updates in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries.

Erica Campbell walked away from corporate life, took a hard left from the British Embassy, and found her calling writing checks for families nobody else sees. As Executive Director of Pinky Swear Foundation, she doesn't waste time on fluff. Her team pays rent, fills gas tanks, and gives sick kids' parents the one thing they don't have—time. Then, breast cancer hit her. She became the patient. Wrote a book about it. Didn't sugarcoat a damn thing. We talk about parking fees, grief, nonprofit burnout, and how the hell you decide which families get help and which don't. Also: AOL handles, John Hughes, and letters from strangers that make you cry. Erica is part Punky Brewster, part Rosie the Robot, and part Lisa Simpson—with just enough GenX Long Island sarcasm to make it all land.

We cover her nonprofit hits, from Michael's Mission to Let's Win Pancreatic Cancer to launching the American Jewish Medical Association—yes, that's a thing now.
