I think it would be very easy to push-back on Retirement Commissioner Jane Wrightson's call for changes to the KiwiSaver scheme to make it easier for self-employed people to save for their retirement. But I'm not going to. She wants to see changes because people who work for themselves are contributing nowhere near as much as employees —partly because they don't get the benefit of an employer making contributions— and she says that could mean they end up living in poverty when they retire. A tax expert agrees, saying a retirement savings scheme must work for all New Zealanders, regardless of how they earn their income. According to a new survey, between April last year and March this year, only 44% of self-employed New Zealanders actively contributed to KiwiSaver compared to 78% of employees. And of those self-employed people who did contribute, 41% of them didn't get the government contribution because of irregular income or low earnings. I say it would be easy to push back on what the Retirement Commissioner is calling for, because people who work for themselves are sometimes seen as having it made. That's, generally, the view of people who have never owned a business or have never been a sole trader. I've been a sole trader before and it's not easy. And I think we should be doing more to help these people get ready for retirement. The question we need to ask ourselves is whether someone who goes out on their own in business —knowing full well that it's a risky thing to do— should have some sort of backstop in the background for their retirement, or more government support for their retirement. If you were to look at it in a very black and white fashion, you could say they shouldn't be supported. You could say to a business owner or a sole trader that, if they want the freedom and benefits of working for themselves, then it's on them to save for their retirement. But I don't see it that way. Because even though there can be big opportunities and positives working for yourself, quite a lot of people still get burnt financially. And, as the Retirement Commissioner says, what happens to these people? People who have next to nothing saved because they've just been focused on keeping their business afloat. So wouldn't it be better to help them out sooner rather than later?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, Lisa and Kolby discuss:Challenges young adults face when transitioning from school to meaningful workHow parental involvement influences early career outcomesShifts in modern job search strategies and market expectationsRole of communication, curiosity, and empathy in career conversationsKey Takeaways: Parents often misinterpret their child's job search struggles as laziness when, in reality, outdated strategies and a broken formula of “work harder = success” demand a shift toward empathy, curiosity, and tactical guidance.With student-to-career counselor ratios at colleges averaging 1,900:1 and most of those professionals rooted in academia, colleges are structurally unequipped to offer relevant, personalized career direction, making parental support and external coaching essential.Asking young adults what problems they want to solve, rather than what job they want to do, reframes career planning around motivation and impact, leading to more aligned and fulfilling professional choices.Employers prioritize real-world experience—such as internships, leadership roles, volunteering, and personal storytelling—far above GPA, meaning students who diversify their experiences outside the classroom stand out more than those who focus solely on academics. “Effort does not equal success. So give your kid a little bit of credit... it's rarely more of anything that makes the change for a young professional, it is the how.” – Kolby GoodmanAbout Kolby Goodman: Kolby Goodman is a nationally recognized career expert, keynote speaker, and founder of The Job Huntr, a coaching and consulting firm that has helped over 4,000 clients get hired, paid, and promoted.

In the heart of Old Town Winchester, at the bustling Espresso Bar, a deeply insightful conversation unfolded between Janet Michael, host of The Valley Today, and Andrea Cosans, Executive Director of Winchester CCAP. The topic, while sobering, is crucial: the recent cuts to SNAP benefits and their far-reaching impacts on the community. "I'm here about once or twice a week," Andrea began, referring to the frequency of her visits to the popular café. Janet echoed this sentiment, acknowledging their shared space for meetings and cooling off, and this casual start quickly transitioned into a critical discussion about the newly passed legislation affecting SNAP benefits. Andrea provided a detailed look at their clientele, mainly the elderly on fixed incomes or those in the 'ALICE' population—Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. These individuals are the working poor, juggling multiple jobs without health insurance and still unable to make ends meet. Janet stressed, "It's important to understand that these are working people, not folks looking for a handout." Statistics were highlighted, revealing that last year, CCAP's food pantry program assisted 8,500 unduplicated individuals, with many visiting only twice a year, underscoring the crisis nature of food insecurity. People often visit multiple food pantries, not to game the system but to survive. The rising cost of living, particularly rent, was another focal point. For many families, access to food pantries is the difference between making rent and feeding their families. Janet noted, "In so many cases, being able to come to CCAP and stock their pantry, put some food in their refrigerator, is the difference between them making their rent or feeding their family." Concerns about food supply shortages were raised, with Andrea mentioning that sources like the USDA are showing signs of strain. She recounted a six-month period when meat was unavailable at food banks, highlighting the fragility of food supplies. Janet urged listeners to empathize by imagining a month without meat—a stark reality for many families. Andrea emphasized that the food available at pantries, typically canned and boxed goods, wouldn't be chosen if there were better options. Despite these challenges, Janet noted the silver lining—those who visit for food might discover other valuable services offered by CCAP, such as clothing, financial literacy classes, and rental assistance. Andrea discussed the shame some people feel in accessing these services, saying, "You know what I hear all the time? 'But I'm not that needy; there's somebody else more desperate.'" This sentiment is likely to change as more people find themselves in tighter spots. Looking forward, Andrea warned that SNAP benefit cuts would likely worsen, moving thousands from food insecurity to hunger. Andrea highlighted that CCAP might have to cap the amount of food distributed or focus resources entirely on food or financial aid. Despite these challenges, grants from United Way and collaborations with local suppliers like USA Produce offer some relief. The discussion also shifted to the broader economic impacts. If local organizations can't fulfill their obligations, small businesses and vendors suffer, creating a trickle-down effect that harms the community. Janet stressed the systemic nature of these issues and the importance of collaboration among local organizations. Janet concluded by asking how the community can help now. Andrea's answer was multi-faceted: donations, volunteer work, and advocacy. She invited people to donate food or money, volunteer their time, or bring unique skills to assist CCAP. Janet encouraged listeners to educate themselves and their circles about the pressing issues discussed. Andrea highlighted the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank's advocacy resources, she framed the situation as a collective challenge requiring united efforts. "Thank you for taking some time and making me more depressed," Janet jested, adding, "But at the same time, giving me some hope, because I know that there are so many organizations in our area that are like you, and they're like, okay, challenge accepted." In closing, Janet made a heartfelt plea for solidarity and support. "I encourage you to take the information that you've learned today because it is real. It is local information. And help educate those around you so that they too understand the value of giving in their communities," she concluded. The essential message remains clear: Together, we can make a tangible difference in addressing the SNAP benefit cuts and their impact on our community.

It's Thursday, May 22nd, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Pakistani Muslim man abducted, forcibly converted, and “married” Christian teen A Christian 15-year-old girl in Pakistan reunited with her parents yesterday after being abducted five months ago. A 29-year-old Muslim man, Muhammad Anees, kidnapped her with four other men from her aunt's home, forcibly converted her to Islam, and married her. The girl suffered abuse for months and is now pregnant. Attorney Hanif Hameed told Morning Star News, “This is a clear case of false conversion and fake marriage to cover the crime of abduction and rape.” Sadly, such cases are increasing in the South Asian country. Pakistan is ranked eighth on the Open Doors' World Watch List of nations where it is most difficult to be a Christian. Billy Graham Association to host evangelism meeting in Germany The Billy Graham Evangelistic Association is hosting the largest meeting on evangelism in 25 years in Berlin, Germany later this month. It's the same location that Rev. Billy Graham held the first World Congress on Evangelism in 1966. Evangelist Franklin Graham is focusing the upcoming event on the church in Europe. Listen to his comments to CBN News. GRAHAM: “We want to ignite a fire in Europe to where there's an excitement for evangelism and the churches are willing to be bold and not ashamed of the Gospel. “We've got Ukrainian churches coming. We have churches coming from Russia. You know, some say, ‘These countries are at war.' Yes, they are, but the Gospel is more powerful than any of that stuff.” In Romans 1:16, the Apostle Paul wrote, “I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes.” Trump announces “Golden Dome” missile defense system U.S. President Donald Trump announced plans for a $175 billion missile defense system on Tuesday. U.S. Space Force General Michael Guetlein is leading the project, known as the “Golden Dome.” Trump said the system should be completed in about three years. Defunding Planned Parenthood remains in Trump's budget bill A handful of conservative Republicans, who hesitated to support Trump's “big, beautiful bill,” appear ready to support the massive package after a furious pressure campaign from President Trump and Speaker Mike Johnson, reports The Hill. After meeting with Trump at the White House on Wednesday afternoon, and then huddling together afterward on Capitol Hill, the members of the conservative Freedom Caucus emerged to say they're on the cusp of supporting the package — if a laundry list of changes promised by the White House is reflected in the final proposal. Their newfound enthusiasm appears to stem from assurances Trump and Johnson made during the White House meeting, including a promise from the president to issue more executive orders addressing some of the spending concerns the conservatives couldn't secure in the legislation, and expanding the rollback of green energy tax credits enacted in the Democrats' 2022 Inflation Reduction Act. The bill seeks to deliver on Trump's key campaign promises, including making permanent Trump's 2017 tax cuts and eliminating taxes on tips. And, thanks in part to the calls of Worldview listeners, the defunding of Planned Parenthood remains in the bill. Court: Florida should require parental consent for a minor's abortion Last Friday, a federal appeals court ruled against a Florida law that allows minors to get abortions without parental consent. A three-judge panel of the U.S. Fifth District Court of Appeals ruled that the law was unconstitutional and violated parental rights. The decision stated, “Whatever asserted constitutional abortion rights may have justified Florida's [law] in the past unequivocally have been repudiated by both the U.S. Supreme Court and the Florida Supreme Court.” Married, employed, church-attending people happier Harvard University recently published their Global Flourishing Study which surveyed 200,000 people across 22 countries over the past five years. The study found people experienced higher levels of wellbeing when married, employed, and attending religious services. Professor Tyler VanderWeele led the research. He noted, “Religious service attendance was one of the factors most consistently associated with present or subsequent wellbeing, across countries and across outcomes.” Anniversary of First Council of Nicaea And finally, this month marks the anniversary of the First Council of Nicaea, 1,700 years ago. In May A.D. 325, about 300 Christian leaders convened in the city of Nicaea, located in modern-day Turkey. The council dealt with the doctrine of the Trinity. In particular, the church at the time had to refute the heresy of Arianism, which denied that Jesus is fully and eternally divine. The council went on to affirm the Trinity and Christ as fully God in the Nicene Creed. It is recited by churches worldwide to this day. The creed affirms there is “one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds; God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God; begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father, by Whom all things were made.” John 1:1 and 4 says, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. ... In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, May 22nd, in the year of our Lord 2025.

Having a full-time job doesn't guarantee a roof over your head. While many Americans still equate homelessness with unemployment, the reality is that 40 to 60 percent of unhoused people in this country are working. This week, Adam sits down with anthropologist Brian Goldstone—author of There Is No Place for Us: Working and Homeless in America—to examine the harsh truths behind America's narrow understanding of homelessness.

May 9, 2025 In this episode, Scott, Mark, and Ray answer questions that came into the PRS Helpdesk.One of my specialties is pedsurology and there is just not much guidance for surgery coding.Is it appropriate to use 54360 (plastic operation on penis to correct angulation) for correction of penile torsion?I found an article from AAPC dated 2005 that stated to use 14040 for penile torsion repair when performed with a MAGPI hypospadias repair (54322).What if the penile torsion repair is not performed with another procedure or at least without a hypospadias repair?If Medical technologists (Medical assistants trained to perform Urodynamics) can perform this test why are Medical assistants not permitted by CMS to perform catheter insertion and removal in non regulated sites of services? (I have seen MAs in non regulated spaces perform catheter changes, bladder instillations--etc---how are practices able to get away with having MAs incorporated in their work flow as such?)In regulated sites of service (Hospital based clinics) what documentation should be used to ensure proper billing when an MA performs 51798 (bladder scan) (incident to billing for a hospital-employed physician).Free Kidney Stone Coding CalculatorDownload NowPRS Billing and Other Services - Book a Call with Mark Painter or Marianne DescioseClick Here to Get More Information and Request a Quote Join the Urology Pharma and Tech Pioneer GroupEmpowering urology practices to adopt new technology faster by providing clear reimbursement strategies—ensuring the practice gets paid and patients benefit sooner.https://www.prsnetwork.com/joinuptp Click Here to Start Your Free Trial of AUACodingToday.com The Thriving Urology Practice Facebook group.The Thriving Urology Practice Facebook Group link to join:https://www.facebook.com/groups/ThrivingPractice/

The revolution with GenAI has been quite the ride since 2023 and quite a few people have been concerned that their employment status might be in jeopardy. I can certainly understand that, especially in light of the tight budgets, widespread layoffs, and executive views on AI technologies. There was an article recently talking about AI taking over some jobs with a few tips on how to stay employed. While tech workers weren't mentioned as being vulnerable, repetitive data-heavy jobs, such as data entry clerks, telemarketers, and cashiers were. That last one is interesting. Lots of companies have tried to use automated checkout stations, but this hasn't necessarily eliminated cashiers. Maybe there are fewer, but lots of companies in the US have rolled back some of these efforts as fraud, mistakes, and slower checkouts have been an issue. Read the rest of Staying Employed
April 18, 2025 Scott, Mark, and Ray discuss questions that came into the PRS Helpdesk:For the past 8 months, I have been in an employed position with a county hospital system that provides inpatient and ambulatory services. Their coding consultants (acsteam.net) are telling the hospital that foley catheter insertions, bladder irrigations, and a list of other procedures commonly performed in urology clinics cannot be billed if they are not performed personally by the physician according to CMS. They reference a list of procedures from CMS and state that these services cannot be billed when performed by ancillary staff regardless of the level of supervision. They use https://www.cms.gov/status-indicators as their source citing the section on PC or TC indicators. Can this be true? Is it possible that this consultant is giving advice from a hospital perspective and not aware of differences between the ambulatory setting? The urology clinic I am working in is not a department of the hospital. It is freestanding. I have never worked in a clinic that did not bill for these services performed by ancillary staff with physician supervision.I look forward to your response.Good afternoon, my question is regarding "Incident to" required documentation. When we attended your seminar this past December, on Day 2, the new "Incident to Rule" was discuss. Can you please help clarify the new rule? My notes are not clear.We are in the process of CMS Review -"Targeted Probe and Educate Round 1". The letter states we were chosen for review because of being in the 60th percentile for our jurisdiction for code 99214.Our practice has the challenge of servicing and underprivilege community and estimated population of 590,142. We have 7 Urologist, 4 Apps and 1 Radiation Oncologist in our practice. Hence our volume is overwhelming.Earlier this year we submitted a batch of approximately forty records. Today we received a notification request "Incident to documentation: needed 2 previous office visits done by MD to support physician/supervising provider's initiation and continued involvement in treatment, and documentation to support direct supervision met.I appreciate any assistance with clarifying the “Incident to” rule.Thank you in advance for your assistance.Doctor did a stent pull in the ASC but not with Cysto scope.

But in late 1988 it became clear that Lyndon was struggling beneath the surface. After noticing signs of increasing depression, Lyndon's family encouraged him to seek help, resulting in a stay at the Western Kings Memorial Hospital… but things would only get worse. Just two days after being admitted, barefoot and wearing only hospital pajamas Lyndon Fuller was last seen jumping out of the window in his third-story room.
