AI and tech are massively beneficial for the modern broker to streamline processes. It's not replacing, but enabling more client-facing time. This was the topic of discussion in this latest episode of Broker Daily Spotlight, where Lendi Group's co-founder and CEO David Hyman and co-founder and chief operating officer Sebastian Watkins delve into the advancements in tech happening across the business. This tech isn't here to replace brokers, which was cemented by the pair. Instead, Lendi Group is “keeping home loans human”, utilising these advancements to allow brokers more time to connect personally with clients.
A flood of government regulations, mandates, and subsidies has not solved the United States' health care problems—they are the problem. They have driven the average employer-plan family premium to nearly $26,000—and then tossed families out of their health insurance when employees leave their jobs. Even as Obamacare creates an insurance shortage, it has nevertheless grown so unaffordable that enrollees earning $200,000 per year get $12,000 in subsidies. Growing federal debt threatens Medicare and Medicaid patients' access to necessary care.Reforms circulating on Capitol Hill are not up to the challenge. Some propose more regulations, mandates, and subsidies. Yet if that approach worked, it would have already. Even reforms that are directionally correct fall far short of what is necessary to restore individual rights and make health care more universal.At this two-panel forum, leading health policy scholars will offer meaningful and potentially bipartisan reforms that would bring relief to struggling patients, workers, and taxpayers.The second panel, “Health Reforms That Meet the Need” (10:45 a.m.–12:15 p.m.), will feature Brian Blase, Michael Cannon, and David Hyman. Panelists will present reforms—including spending cuts—that would address the nation's health care challenges in a meaningful way. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Susan Pendergrass speaks with Charles M. Silver, professor at the University of Texas at Austin School of Law, and David Hyman, professor at Georgetown Law, about their proposal for reforming Medicare by giving money directly to patients instead of providers. They explain how fraudulent practices like 'upcoding' are draining taxpayer dollars, driving up healthcare costs, and offer solutions to reduce fraud and improve efficiency.

Si Qua Virtus - Episode 15: Kolt Kodesh On episode 15 of Si Qua Virtus – Creativity and the New Christendom, host Christopher Laurence is very excited to welcome Catholic Hip-Hop artist Kolt Kodesh. Kolt discusses his trajectory from promising secular rap career, to Protestant rap artist, to finally finding the fullness of Truth in the Catholic Faith and utilizing his talents to bring that Truth to others. [Opening and closing music for each episode of Si Qua Virtus provided by Josef Saunders/Mödest. His albums can be heard HERE.] Kolt Kodesh, real name David Hyman, is a 23-year old Catholic-Christian Hip Hop artist from New Jersey, a new face in the relatively scarce genre. He desires to see the landscape of Catholic culture expounded on with the rise of more Catholic-rap music and artists. Born and raised Protestant, he aspired to attend seminary to one day teach theology or become a minister. In November 2020, however, after studying scripture and church history, Kolt's spiritual journey found him accepting the teachings and doctrines of the Catholic Church. Welcomed into the Church at this year's Easter Vigil, and newly no-longer engaged, Kolt was in a brand new headspace questioning where to go next. He decided to pursue rapping once again, which he had done as a secular artist as a teenager, to being a Protestant Christian-rapper in college, to this time representing the Holy Catholic Church in his raps, a rare subgenre in “CHH” or Christian Hip Hop.

It’s Martyn Lee here and I go through every EV story so you don't have to. Thank you to MYEV.com for helping make this show, they’ve built the first marketplace specifically for Electric Vehicles. It’s a totally free marketplace that simplifies the buying and selling process, and help you learn about EVs along the way too. TESLA FACES A HUGE FINE IN NORWAY FOR THROTTLING BATTERY CHARGING SPEEDS"Tesla has been ordered to pay 136,000 kroner ($16,000) each to thousands of customers in Norway for slowing down charging speeds. A 2019 software update was found to have affected the battery life in Tesla Model S vehicles manufactured between 2013 and 2015, sparking a complaint by dozens of Norwegian Tesla owners to the country’s conciliation council, according to Nettavisen." says The Verge: "The order, which was announced on May 17th, gives Tesla until May 30th to pay the fine. Otherwise, the company can file an appeal with the Oslo council.". "Some owners saw precipitous drops in battery capacity of up to 11 percent, compared to the normal gradual declines expected. Those issues have led to lawsuits not only in Norway, but in Denmark, the US and elsewhere. " said Engadget today: "Tesla reportedly failed to reply to the suit, so the judgement was made in absentia. As a result, the 30 owners behind the lawsuit will be awarded $16,000 each unless Tesla appeals. " InsideEVs explained the background: "In Norway, more than 30 owners sued Tesla in a conciliatory board for the issue with their battery pack, apparently with the help of Bilklager. This company organizes consumer consortiums to tackle legal problems as a group. That makes it more affordable to sue automakers. A conciliatory board is also referred to as a “semi-court,” and it works similarly to small claims courts. Norway has 10,000 other affected customers with cars made from 2013 up to 2015, but it is not clear if the decision includes them or if all of them would have to seek the same compensation in similar lawsuits. There’s a similar lawsuit against Tesla in Denmark, according to Politiken.dk, with 75 customers apparently demanding the same measures. Meanwhile, US courts and the five Chinese departments that were going to investigate this issue are yet to decide anything." @johnvoelcker"Tesla sent OTA updates to 85-kWh Model S + Model X #EV cars to "protect the battery + improve longevity." Range fell for many (Tesla said only "a small percentage"). Owners in various countries sued. Tesla didn't show for the hearing in Norway; it lost." @DrAndrewThaler"I got a ton of flack when I said my big problem with Tesla is that they're approaching cars like smartphones with disposability as part of their design. Tesla has been ordered to pay $16,000 each to customers in Norway for slowing down charging speeds." Issues:where does this go next?All car companies want to do OTADo you want your battery protected?How much are they allowed to?What level of this is care vs interference? https://www.theverge.com/2021/5/24/22451101/tesla-fine-norway-throttle-battery-charging-speedhttps://www.engadget.com/norway-fines-tesla-for-reducing-battery-capacities-and-charging-speeds-122531410.htmlhttps://insideevs.com/news/509349/tesla-convicted-norway-voltage-cap/ AUDI TO BUILD NETWORK OF LOUNGE-STYLE EV CHARGING HUBS"Audi has shared its vision for a network of premium charging stations intended to improve EV infrastructure in residential areas. Beginning in the second half of this year, the firm will install six hubs in Germany to test the feasibility of the technology ahead of a “possible serial roll-out”. The precise locations have yet to be decided, but talks with possible partners are under way." says Will at Autocar: "These charging hubs will be high-power charging (HPC) stations that can be reserved in advance by Audi owners. They will have charging outputs of up to 300kW, allowing an E-tron GT to charge from nearly empty to 80% battery in around 23 minutes. Above the chargers themselves, the hubs will have a lounge area and canteen for drivers to use while they wait. ade up of a series of cube structures, the hubs can be transported and installed in individual locations quickly. Power will be stored, Audi claims, in lithium ion batteries taken from old EVs. The batteries are capable of storing direct electric current. This makes complex infrastructure with high-voltage lines and expensive transformer units unnecessary, Audi says." https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/industry-news-environment/audi-build-network-lounge-style-ev-charging-hubs HYUNDAI IONIQ 5: TARGETED 300 MILES, 18-MINUTE FAST-CHARGING FOR US-SPEC ELECTRIC CAR"Hyundai Motor America on Monday provided the first details for the Ioniq 5 electric crossover—the brand’s first dedicated EV—that will be arriving to select U.S. dealerships this fall. Although the 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 was revealed in February, there have been some tweaks in how Hyundai’s positioning the model for the U.S. market. " says Green Car Reports: " One of them includes a staggered rollout that will deliver it first to California EV-mandate states. Although Hyundai has said earlier in the year that U.S. buyers would get a choice between Standard Range 58-kilowatt-hour or Long Range 77.4-kwh battery packs, the company has decided only to offer the Long Range pack. Hyundai has released more information about driving range in U.S. spec, under EPA ratings, and they’re quite impressive. Dual-motor SE and SEL models will get a targeted 289 miles and the top-of-the-line dual-motor Limited should be rated around 244 miles in U.S. spec. It says that the Ioniq will achieve up to 300 miles, so look for that to be achieved in one of the single-motor models." This artcile says the V2L capacity is 1.9kW not 3.6kW for the European spec cars. https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1132367_2022-hyundai-ioniq-5-300-mile-electric-car-will-offer-18-minute-fast-charging-in-us-spec FORD PROMISES BUSINESSES ELECTRIC F-150 LIGHTNING PRO WILL DELIVER MORE FEATURES, COST LESS"Ford revealed details of a less powerful version of its upcoming 2022 F-150 Lightning electric pickup for business and government fleets on Monday. Called the Lightning Pro, it’s equipped with a standard battery that’s good for an estimated 230 miles and costs $39,974, the same as the base price for retail F-150 Lightnings." says Detroit Free Press: "The base Lightning Pro’s two electric motors — one for each axle — are expected to generate 426 horsepower and 775 pound-feet of torque. The base model will be able to tow up to 5,000 pounds and carry a payload up to 2,000. Fleets tend to be consistent, long-term customers. They’re a large and profitable part of Ford’s business with the conventionally powered F-series pickup, which has been America’s bestselling vehicle for 44 years. Ford’s research shows that the average F-150 owners travel less than 174 miles 95% of the time" Steve Carey, president and CEO of NTEA, the work-truck industry association: "Work vehicles present a growing opportunity for electrification, As electrified vehicles continue to evolve and availability expands, we anticipate an increased adoption rate in commercial applications. Proper training for fleets to determine suitable applications — both from a total cost of ownership, and drive and duty cycle perspective — will be extremely important. Effective and efficient charging solutions for fleet requirements and quality of guidance provided to equipment installers will also be vital to implementation in commercial applications." https://eu.freep.com/story/money/cars/mark-phelan/2021/05/24/ford-lower-costs-electric-2022-ford-f-150-lighting-pro/5210886001/ PRINCE WILLIAM HITS BARRIER AS HE RACES ELECTRIC CAR AROUND TRACK"The Duke of Cambridge showed off his driving skills when he took an electric SUV for a spin in Scotland. Prince William impressed professional race drivers as he drove a pioneering car round the Knockhill Racing Circuit in Fife with only a few bumps and scrapes." says Metro: "The duke drove the E Odyssey 21 car – equipped with a ‘Prince William’ decal with a British flag – around the muddy twists and turns of the circuit."

I threw a camera on the front of my car and captured these Rivians in action." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAHAYpRns6c SUBSCRIPTION-BASED E-SCOOTER COMPANY ROLLING OUT IN NASHVILLE"A new e-scooter company being referred to as "the Netflix of electric scooters" is hitting the streets of Nashville. There are already several scooter companies operating in Nashville, but this one, called Unagi, is different. The key difference: you don't have to share your scooter." says WSMV.com: "“It’s clean energy, people love them — it’s the fastest most efficient way to get from point A to point B inside of a city," said David Hyman, founder and CEO of Unagi. Hyman was fed up with ridesharing apps. He says he never knew when they would cancel a ride or show up late. So instead he turned his attention to e-scooters, but wasn't crazy about the price. Hyman says Unagi scooters do their pricing on a month-to-month basis, like Netflix. If you do sign up to receive a monthly scooter, the company will deliver it right to your doorstep within 72 hours." https://www.wsmv.com/news/subscription-based-e-scooter-company-rolling-out-in-nashville/article_4b5bdcaa-bc6e-11eb-a228-036dcfc42612.html SONY SPIED WORKING ON THE VISION S ELECTRIC SEDAN"Although Sony has said that it won’t actually produce the Vision S concept, that hasn’t stopped the Japanese tech company from continuing development." says CarScoops: "The prototype was first introduced by the electronics giant at CES in early 2020. The electric car features advanced level 2 autonomous driving technology and is filled to the brim with sensors tracking everything that is going on outside and inside the vehicle. Along with the gizmos that you’d expect Sony to be pretty good at (cameras, sound systems, fancy screens etc), Sony’s CEO also said that the car was based on a new electric platform that reports indicated was supplied by Magna. These spy shots would seem to suggest that the Vision S is back on the test track. Just how long it is before we start seeing driver aids and electronics in production vehicles (like Google has done) will be interesting to see." https://www.carscoops.com/2021/05/sony-spied-working-on-the-vision-s-electric-sedan/ QUESTION OF THE WEEK WITH EMOBILITYNORWAY.COM Do you have an opinion on hydrogen power for personal transport?

Thanksgiving is going to look every different this year. Science is telling us that one of the big drivers of COVID-19 infections are small family and social gatherings. So how do we make this Thanksgiving more meaningful in a time when some of us might feel challenged counting our blessings. The American Jewish Committee has a wonderful reader you can download called America's Table. It's a guide full of questions and quotes you can share around the virtual Thanksgiving table. We'll tell you all about it with Marcia Bronstein, Regional Director – AJC Philadelphia/SNJ and David Hyman, President of AJC and Co-Founder of Operation Understanding.https://www.ajc.org/AmericasTableFirst – what if you're a single woman and you still dream of being a mom. I had a fascinating conversation with Kellee Stewart actress, writer and producer who is opening up an important conversation on this very issue.https://blacklove.com/kellee-stewarts-personal-fertility-journey-of-turning-pain-into-purpose/
We're just a few days away from Thanksgiving and wow how much has changed since last year. Most of us won't be having our traditional family get togethers because of the COVID-19 pandemic and as hard as that is – it's a good thing. We've discovered that most of the COVID-19 infections have been spreading through small family and social gatherings. So how do we make it special? The American Jewish Committee has a wonderful non-denominational Thanksgiving reader called America's Table that provides questions and inspiration we can share around the virtual Thanksgiving circle I speak to Marcia Bronstein, Regional Director – AJC Philadelphia/SNJ and David Hyman, President of AJC and Co-Founder of Operation Understanding.https://www.ajc.org/AmericasTableViolence is spiking in Philadelphia the stresses of COVID-19 are part of the problem. Still the primary driving forces continue to be city's deep poverty, low employment, and trauma. The City of Philadelphia is reaching out to community organizations working in neighborhoods with grassroots programs that address these issues, and they are offering grants to fund them. Joining me from the Philadelphia Office of Violence Prevention are Theron Pride, Senior Director Violence Prevention Strategies and Programs and Kianna Brown – Program Specialist. www.phila.gov/violenceprevention First – ever thought you had a book in you?

The panel took place via teleconference on Thursday, June 11, 2020.How should societies respond to pandemic crises, and to what extent has the American response tracked ideal models? The key questions are the extent to which public and private actors take responsibility for actions and how those actors coordinate with each other. What considerations should govern the allocation of public/private decision making in confronting COVID-19? What are the risks and benefits of decisions being made by the government (at all of the different levels of government), businesses, and individuals? What, in the response thus far,has worked and what hasn’t? Do government decisions about what to close down and when to reopen them create serious crony capitalism and public choice problems or in such an emergency will politicians rise above those temptations? What, if anything, does COVID-19 tell us about Medicare for All?Featuring:Prof. Ian Ayres, William K. Townsend Professor of Law, Yale Law SchoolProf. David Hyman, Scott K. Ginsburg Professor of Health Law & Policy, Georgetown UniversityProf. Jason Johnston, Henry L. and Grace Doherty Charitable Foundation Professor of Law; Armistead M.

Zombies aren't real, but sometimes they sure seem like it. Especially when it involves medicine and the law. Health Diagnostics Laboratories (HDL) went into bankruptcy after being discovered it was ripping off patients by overcharging them and providing kickbacks to doctors and health organizations for using their services. Aside from being unethical this illegal activity put all those employees who were prescribing laboratory tests at risk for legal action. My guest, Dr. Molly Rutherford, was an employee of a physician's private practice in Kentucky when her zombie nightmare occurred. At the clinic, her physician boss encouraged her to perform all sorts of expensive and highly technical laboratory tests on most of her patients. HDL was paying kickbacks to the offices and physicians who ordered their tests. Dr. Rutherford did not find that the results were very useful especially because they were so expensive. Soon, Dr. Rutherford stopped ordering those tests because she didn't find their results helpful in her treatment. However, she later found that her boss was ordering the tests on her patients without consulting her. Once she realized this was happening she quickly felt that something was not right and decided to leave and open her own direct primary care clinic. The advantage of opening her own clinic allowed her to not only escape some of these shady practices but also to begin practicing addiction medicine along with family medicine. Now she mixes the two on her own with great success bringing her lots of professional contentment. Unfortunately, HDL went bankrupt and began demanding back all of its kickbacks given to any doctor who received their kickbacks even if they didn't even know that their ordering of the tests sent the kickbacks to her boss. Dr. Rutherford was forced to hire an attorney to avoid paying the fines demanded by the creditors of HDL. Lucky for Dr. Rutherford, the case was settled by her lawyers who got her out of the lawsuit but still cost her several thousand dollars even though she was no longer working at the clinic. That is now in the past and she is enjoying her life practicing medicine the way she wants. Dr. Molly Rutherford is a family medicine and addiction medicine specialist who owns and operates the Blue Grass Family Wellness DPC practice. show notes Blue Grass Family Wellness: This is Dr. Rutherford's family practice website in Crestwood, KY.

The topic of abortion seems to have gained more momentum in the news cycle of late with states passing laws relaxing or loosening restrictions on the practice. It feels like the 1973 ruling of Roe v. Wade might actually come before the US Supreme Court with a chance of reversing or affirming the 46 year old opinion. As a physician and hospital, the social and ethical questions that surround abortion are both personal and professional. What is the obligation of institutions to perform abortions? How about the physicians or nursing staff? Do you have a legal obligation to perform a procedure that you find morally reprehensible? To answer those questions, today I have Stephanie Slade on the show from Reason magazine. Stephanie is a managing editor and follows the public and legal debate on the subject. She wrote a piece for the America magazine a year ago documenting the efforts of the ACLU to compel catholic hospitals to perform abortions and other reproductive health procedures (sterilization, gender reassignment, etc.). As with all political discussions, this one is nuanced and also uniquely American as our legal focus is heavily directed by our founding documents and the Bill of Rights. What role freedom of speech and association has for private institutions like catholic charities and what rules can the government impose on those same hospitals is what is under dispute with these ACLU directed claims. The ACLU believes that hospitals are a uniquely public institution that provides critical care to large populations and therefore should be compelled to perform abortions and other medical procedures that the catholic church finds morally objectionable. To date, the ACLU has been unsuccessful in any of their lawsuits even with sympathetic federal judges who point to the first amendment as the basis for their rulings. However, the ACLU is now bringing forth cases of gender reassignment against the catholic church to see if that issue will bring a different ruling. Finally, as state legislatures continue to pass laws that allow abortion up to the moment of birth or ban abortion as soon as a heartbeat is present (~6 weeks gestation or around when a typical urine pregnancy test is positive) the US Supreme Court may feel its hands are tied and have to reexamine Roe v. Wade. Stephanie Slade is the managing editor for Reason magazine where she writes but mostly edits. She also writes for the American and resides in Washington, D.C. show notes Why is the ACLU Targeting Catholic Hospitals?: Stephanie Slade's article that we discuss during the show highlighting the history of the catholic church and charitable ministries in the US and the ACLU's attempts to force the hospitals to perform abortions.

National health care policy is always at the forefront of the political discussion in the US but even more so now that the 2020 presidential race is beginning to heat up. Democratic candidates are offering their visions of what the US system should look like and point to other countries in the world as examples of superior structures. One held up as better than the US is the United Kingdom and its National Health Service (NHS). But is it better than what we have here? My guest today is Philip Booth, a professor in finance, public policy, and ethics at St. Mary's University in Twickenham, UK and a senior academic fellow at the Institute of Economic Affairs. He has written extensively on the health care policy in the UK and is able to provide an historical perspective on the UK system and how it differs from the US and the rest of continental Europe. In today's discussion, we examine whether the UK system is really a beacon to be held up by US politicians and what other national systems are in the world that may be better or worse. Not surprisingly, the conclusion we arrive at is that the NHS is hardly a system that we should strive to emulate in the US - much like the US system with its runaway costs is one other countries should copy either. In a gallows humor moment Dr. Booth describes how the survey touted by many pointing to the NHS' superiority as a system notes only one downside - that the UK is last in mortality. Dr. Philip Booth is a senior academic fellow at the Institute of Economic Affairs and professor of finance, public policy, and ethics at St. Mary's College in Twickenham, UK. show notes Catholic Social Teaching and the Market Economy: Dr. Booth's book in the free online version. Here is the synopsis: Throughout history, but particularly in the last century or so, the Catholic Church has developed a formal body of teaching on economic and political matters. Other Christian faiths have absorbed much of that work, as have non-Christians, and thus the body of Catholic Social Teaching has often been influential in the public policy arena. This volume, taking account of recent developments in both political economy and Catholic Social Teaching, examines the extent to which that teaching can be used to justify the free market, or alternative forms of political and economic organisation, in areas such as taxation, welfare, foreign aid, labour markets, finance and the environment. It also critically examines the general case for an interventionist state in the economic sphere, as well as the importance of the development of a culture of responsibility., underpinned by sound education, in a free society.

Its mission is to improve understanding of the fundamental institutions of a free society by analysing and expounding the role of markets in solving economic and social problems.

Techstination interview: What makes Unagi e-scooters different?: CEO David Hyman
We can all agree - outside of a few overpaid pharma CEOs - that the American Health Care system is too expensive. In fact, one could argue that the system of delivering health care in America is designed to cost the most possible without any parts that can check its growth. If you were to try and design a more costly and inefficient system I dare say you would be unsuccessful. As I discuss with the author of Overcharged: Why Americans Pay So Much for Health Care, Professor David Hyman describes a system of incentives that seem aligned solely to increase the cost of care to patients and reimbursement of those delivering the care. From pharmaceutical companies, hospitals, physicians, and insurance companies there are no friends to be found for the consumers. And before anyone looks to Washington, D.C. or state capitols for relief, think again because those monopoly powers originate in those ivory hallways paid for with health care special interest money. The problems identified in the book are: Political Control of Health Care Spending 3rd Party Payors Prices too high Quality is perceived by everyone delivering care as above average Opaque prices There are four lessons learned and extrapolated on in the book: 1) The system is full of good people but good people can't fix a bad system 2) If the bottom leads, the top will follow (only consumers can drive innovation) 3) To beat the system you have to leave the system 4) Better health care thru self-pay We discussed these concepts in depth throughout the show and also delved into the solutions to save our system from consuming our entire GDP. Already, health care consumes so much money that budgetary problems are springing up from DC down to city hall. Fortunately, Overcharged describes the diagnoses and the cures.

About a year ago, David Hyman, former Beats Music CEO and co-founder of music startup Mog that eventually sold to Beats Music, did something that was “very abnormal for me — career-wise,” he told TechCrunch. Hyman was an entrepreneur in residence at a giant real estate company. Because the music industry has changed so much, he said he didn't want to do another music company.

Why is America’s health care system so dysfunctional and expensive? Why do hospitalized patients receive bills laden with inflated charges that come out of the blue from out-of-network providers, or that demand payment for services that weren’t delivered? Why do we pay $600 for EpiPens that contain a dollar’s worth of medicine? Why is more than $1 trillion—one out of every three dollars that passes through the system—lost to fraud, wasted on services that don’t help patients, or otherwise misspent? In a new book published by the Cato Institute, Overcharged: Why Americans Pay Too Much for Health Care, Cato adjunct scholars Charles Silver and David Hyman answer these questions. Overcharged shows how government replaces competition and consumer choice with monopolies and third-party payment, making America’s health care system as expensive as possible.

Let's say you're the devil, and you want to corrupt the American republic. How would you do it? According to David Hyman, you might create something like Medicare, the federal health care program for the elderly. In Medicare Meets Mephistopheles, Hyman wryly suggests that Medicare may be the greatest trick the devil has ever played: a massive government program that promotes all seven deadly sins as it drives the United States toward financial ruin. Two leading Medicare scholars will critique Hyman's work. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
