What actually happens to a patient a year into real, supervised peptide therapy? In the final episode of our peptides series, Dr. Melissa Jones and host Jamie Preston close the loop on the story that opened this whole series — and get honest about what changed, what didn't, and what every provider and patient still needs to know. This episode goes beyond the science into the human side of the story: what it actually feels like when chronic pain resolves, when weight loss becomes life-changing rather than cosmetic, and when a skeptical clinician becomes one of the most passionate advocates in the building. Jamie also shares his own journey — turning 50, managing diabetes, and reaching his goal weight — as a real example of what supervised, responsible care can look like over time. In this episode, you'll hear: An update on the chronic pain patient from Episode 1 — where he is now, and what's kept his results sustainable What the actual clinical data shows about supervised BPC-157 therapy, and where its limits are Why GLP-1 success is about far more than the number on the scale — confidence, mobility, and mental health The advice Dr. Jones gives new providers who feel nervous bringing up peptides with patients The single biggest myth about peptides she wants to put to rest for good The three things every patient should understand before they ever start a peptide This is the episode that ties the whole series together — not as a sales pitch for peptides, but as a case for doing this the right way, with the right people, for the right reasons. It's the last episode in this run, but it won't be the last time we talk about this. www.YourHealth.Org

What if the peptide you just ordered online isn't wrong — it's just wrong for you? In Episode 2 of our peptides series, clinical pharmacist Dr. Melissa Jones takes us inside the actual decision-making process providers use to match a peptide to a patient, and why skipping that process is how people end up wasting money, or worse, hurting themselves. Host Jamie Preston and Dr. Jones dig into the real science: what a peptide is, how peptides signal the body, and why a healthy foundation — hormones and gut health — has to come before any peptide is even considered. From there, they cover the wide menu of options (tissue repair, skin and hair, sexual health, growth hormone support, metabolic health, sleep and stress) and what it actually means to “stack” or “cycle” peptides responsibly. In this episode, you'll hear: Why there isn't — and won't be — one peptide that does it all, and what that means for how providers build a plan How stacking and cycling actually work, and where cost becomes a real factor in the decision The difference between FDA-approved peptide uses (like Tesamorelin for visceral fat) and the anecdotal dosing happening across the wellness world The real danger in reconstituting and self-dosing peptides ordered online, explained in plain terms What responsible, supervised GLP-1 (Mounjaro, Ozempic, tirzepatide) therapy looks like — and what goes wrong with compounded, unregulated versions The specific list of patients who should avoid peptides or use extra caution, and why providers need to know it cold If you've ever wondered whether a peptide could actually help you — or wondered what your provider is really weighing before saying yes — this episode gives you the real answer, not the Instagram version. www.YourHealth.Org

Medical billing is becoming an important opportunity for independent pharmacies looking to expand patient care services beyond dispensing and better capture the value of pharmacist-provided care. In this episode of Independent Insights, host Britney Woods introduces a recorded conversation between Marc Crouch, Vice President of Pharmacy Retail Operations and Health Mart VP Pro, and Alyssa Mack, Clinical Pharmacist at Gibbs Pharmacy in Lebanon, Tennessee. Alyssa shares how Gibbs Pharmacy has grown its pharmacy-led clinical service model, including immunizations, point-of-care testing, test-to-treat services, patient consultations, and technician-supported billing workflows. The discussion explores practical lessons from building medical billing capabilities, navigating payer relationships and credentialing, using collaborative practice agreements when needed, and creating workflows that help make medical billing more manageable in a busy independent pharmacy setting. Listeners will hear how medical billing can support sustainable patient care services, why immunizations may be a practical place to start, and how becoming provider ready can help pharmacies deliver, document, and support expanded clinical services over time.HostBritney Woods, PharmDSr. Manager, Community PharmacyMcKesson / Health MartGuestsMarc CrouchVice President, Pharmacy Retail Operations,Office of Health MartAlyssa Mack, PharmDClinical Pharmacist,Gibbs Pharmacy, Lebanon, TennesseeResourcesHealth Mart Pharmacies interested in unlocking new opportunities with Pharmacy Profiles can learn more here (https://view-su2.highspot.com/viewer/4b7cffbe5cf3491f73da9b1785b27ded) Tune into Episode 20: Provider Ready Now-Residency & Credentialing for Independent Growth  Health Mart Pharmacies can access Health Mart University (HMU) for:  Helpful CE courses and more on Medical Billing, Point of Care Testing, and Test and Treat Health Mart pharmacists to claim their CE credit for weekly Gamechanger episodesThe views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the guest and do not necessarily represent the views or positions of Health Mart, McKesson or its affiliates or subsidiaries ("McKesson”).

Most organizations put "Collaboration" on a wall. Few actually live it — and in healthcare, the cost of not living it isn't a missed deadline. It's a missed patient. In the first episode of Your Health University's brand-new Most organizations put "collaboration" on a wall. Few actually live it — and in healthcare, the cost of not living it isn't a missed deadline. It's a missed patient. In the first episode of Your Health University's brand-new Our Values Series, host Jamie Preston gathers four members of Your Health's patient experience team — Rebecca Dillard (VP of Organizational Experience), Jennifer Kessler (Division President of Product), Whitney Myers (Senior Solutions Advisor), and Carlos Hayward (Business Office Manager) — for an unfiltered conversation about what genuine collaboration looks like inside a fast-moving, mission-driven healthcare organization. No theory. No platitudes. Just the real, messy, mundane, and occasionally remarkable daily practice of people choosing to work together when it would be easier to go it alone. What you'll hear in this episode: Why real collaboration means recognizing what the person next to you brings that you simply cannot replicate — and building toward that, not around it The true story of a patient found living in an RV without his medication — and how cross-team collaboration made the difference between crisis and care Where collaboration most commonly breaks down in healthcare settings, and the small documentation and communication habits that prevent it The one question — "How can I do my job differently to make yours better?" — that builds trust across departments faster than almost anything else The daily habits these four healthcare professionals actually practice to keep collaboration alive, from weekly team check-ins to learning someone's preferred communication style before you assume Collaboration isn't a value you perform. It's a choice you make — one conversation, one phone call, one honest mistake admitted at a time.

"You see this dissonance between the current you and the past you or other people, and the only gap across the bridge is action and implementation." There's a moment when you realize the life you're living and the life you actually want are no longer aligned, and no amount of thinking, planning, or hoping is going to close that gap for you. In this episode, Heather and Melissa Apa explore that tension as she shares what it looks like to navigate a child's diabetes diagnosis, the weight of ongoing crisis, and the secret decisions that change everything over time. This isn't a conversation about doing it perfectly or becoming a "better" person. It's about learning how to live, lead, and even thrive inside circumstances you didn't choose, without letting them define you.  What to listen for: ✨ The power of managing a disease like diabetes without making it your identity ✨ Melissa's experience getting her child's diagnosis and navigating the initial stress ✨ The trap of thinking life will finally be manageable after the crisis you're walking through "I was like, my life is clearly just going to continue to be chaos, and I need to figure out how to still be able to get to joy and thriving and loving life because we only get one life, and this is the one I have, so I would like to enjoy it." ✨ The secret, silent decisions we make internally when we're finally ready to change ✨ How Melisa's multi-year experience of dealing with crisis made the journey more easeful ✨ Managing life with a chronic disease isn't a morality issue; it's just what's happening "You're not morally a good or bad person if you're struggling to control a chronic disease. You just don't have the right information, the right tools, or the right support. It doesn't mean that you're bad." ✨ Teaching kids how to advocate for themselves, especially with health issues ✨ Learning how to thrive with your disease rather than settling for just managing it ✨ Why action and implementation are required to experience behavioral change  "The biggest thing that I see in the people who don't make changes is that they don't even see it as a possibility. It's never even occurred to them that it doesn't need to be this way. They have accepted that it will always be hard. That's not what I want you to accept. We need to accept some things, and we need to challenge some others here." ✨ How Heather helped Melissa recognize that chronic overwhelm was her comfort zone ✨ Being emotionally calm is the foundational work to build stability and systems from ✨ Why your leadership and how you manage your energy directly affect your family *** About Melissa Apa: Melissa Apa is a Clinical Pharmacist and Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist with over 15 years of experience—turned diabetes coach. She is a runner, and mom of two boys, including one living with type 1 diabetes.

In this episode of The Disrupted Podcast, Jamie and Scott have a  raw, specific, and deeply personal conversation about Care Managers: who they are, what they're actually supposed to do, and why getting this role wrong is costing patients their health and organizations millions of dollars. Scott opens with a story that hits hard: his 91-year-old father's recent hospitalization, the mistakes that nearly happened, and what it cost him — financially and emotionally — to navigate a system that wasn't built for the patient. What you'll hear in this episode: Why care managers are controllers, not schedulers — and what happens when organizations get that wrong The medication reconciliation crisis: how discharge errors are sending patients straight back to the ER How Your Health's new geographic mapping tool is transforming how care teams schedule 30 days of visits in advance The shared bonus model designed to stop care team members from fighting over visits — and start winning together What care managers should never be doing — and the analytical skill set that separates great ones from average ones If you're building care teams, leading a healthcare organization, or just trying to keep a loved one safe in a broken system, this episode will change how you think about the people standing between your patients and the hospital. www.YourHealth.Org

Joining us today is our good friend and colleague, Jim LaValle, a Clinical Pharmacist, Author, Board Certified Clinical Nutritionist, and Health Expert.  Jim joins us to discuss a very exciting, NEWLY published study that shows that Kyolic Aged Garlic Extract supplements can significantly reduce periodontal pocket depth – a key indicator of gingivitis and periodontal disease progression.It's an alarming fact, but periodontal disease affects most adults in America.According to the National Institutes of Health, nearly HALF of American adults over the age of 30 suffer from some form of periodontal disease which is linked to tooth loss and systemic conditions like cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, COPD, and other respiratory issues.In the latest study, which appeared in the February 2025 issue of Biomedical Reports, 300 otherwise healthy adults with moderate-to-severe periodontal disease were divided into four treatment groups—three groups who were assigned to take various doses of AGE and one control group. Over the next 18 months, researchers found that the participants supplementing with AGE experienced marked reductions in periodontal pocket depth - a key indicator of disease progression—compared to those taking the placebo.The study, which was conducted by scientists at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, also demonstrated that a greater daily AGE intake led to better outcomes. Statistical modeling confirmed that improvements were most strongly associated with participants' baseline pocket depths, smoking status, and AGE dosage.Learn more about KyolicLearn more about Jim LaValleKyolic Aged Garlic Extract formulas are available at your local health food store and Online.For more information about Kyolic, or to find a retailer near you, visit Kyolic.com
