"Revolutions are never won by the ruling class... if you want to fix healthcare, you have to be willing to accept a negative sum game. Someone is losing."Why are self-funded employers still paying for healthcare on a "fee-for-service" basis, where every single transaction is billed separately with zero guarantee of a positive outcome?My guests this week are Francois and Jeremy from XO Health, a new type of health plan built explicitly for self-funded employers. Instead of relying on traditional, opaque carrier networks (the "BUCAs"), XO Health is introducing a new accounting system for healthcare: the Care Package.In this episode, we explore how XO packages an entire episode of care - from a knee replacement to the ongoing management of chronic diabetes or maternity - into a single, predictable, fixed price. We discuss how this model shifts financial accountability back to the provider (while also protecting them through embedded risk corridors and "mini-spec" policies), eliminates the perverse incentives of traditional networks, and ultimately allows employers to offer a health plan that employees actually want to use (complete with "hugs and kisses" for $0 out-of-pocket costs).If you are an employer or a benefits consultant tired of 10% medical trend and unpredictable renewals, this episode provides a blueprint for how true risk-sharing can finally fix the system.Thank you to our 2026 sponsors!ParetoHealth: ParetoHealth empowers midsize employers with a long-term solution to reduce volatility and lower overall health benefits costs.

Recovery outcomes improve when support is continuous, trust-based, and built around human connection rather than episodic treatment alone. In this episode, Chris Thompson, founder and CEO of Sober Sidekick, shares how his personal experience with addiction inspired him to build a platform focused on reducing isolation and providing real-time support. He explains why relapse, overdose, and crises often occur outside traditional care settings, where support is limited. The platform addresses this gap through peer support, behavioral signals, and care navigation to engage people when it matters most. Chris also critiques traditional treatment incentives and emphasizes the need for a more empathetic, proactive, and trust-based approach to long-term recovery. Tune in and learn how always-on, empathy-driven support can help people sustain recovery and rethink how addiction care is delivered! Resources: Connect with and follow Chris Thomson on LinkedIn.

In this Bright Spots in Healthcare episode, host Eric Glazer brought together payer and provider leaders to examine a major shift underway in specialty care. Historically, specialty models have been built around episodic intervention, stepping in after a condition has progressed. But as organizations take on greater accountability for outcomes and cost, that model is becoming harder to sustain. The conversation explored how AI, earlier signal detection, and more connected care models can help organizations identify risk sooner, guide members more effectively, and support better outcomes over time. Our guests include: Saria Saccocio, MD, Chief Medical Officer, Essence Healthcare  Ross Lagerblade, Vice President, Value Based Strategies, Humana Mary O'Connor, MD, Chief Medical Officer & Co-Founder, Vori Health   Together, they explored: How specialty care is evolving from reactive, episode-based intervention to models built around continuous visibility and earlier action How organizations are identifying risk that never shows up in traditional data, and what it takes to surface and act on those blind spots How leading plans are redesigning the member experience to create clearer, more guided pathways through complex specialty care journeys What it looks like to use AI and new data sources to scale outreach, triage, and coordination without increasing operational burden How clinically grounded models are ensuring members are directed to the right level of care at the right time, avoiding unnecessary escalation What it takes to align care delivery, incentives, and measurement around sustained outcomes rather than isolated interventions This episode offers an inside look at how leaders are building more proactive, coordinated specialty care models, and what it takes to make them work in practice.

Drawing on real-world implementation, it highlights how combining clinical expertise with data, AI, and coordinated care pathways can shift specialty care from reactive treatment to continuous management. Inside, you'll find insights on: Extending specialty care beyond traditional encounters to support members earlier in their journey Designing clinically grounded care pathways that guide members to the right level of care at the right time Using data, wearables, and AI to surface risk that is not visible in traditional workflows Reducing unnecessary escalation, procedures, and downstream cost through earlier intervention Building scalable models that combine centralized coordination with physician-led care delivery Why longitudinal accountability is becoming essential as expectations for outcomes, experience, and cost continue to rise To request your copy, reach out to show producer Nicole Roberts at nroberts@brightspotsventures.com Thank You to Our Episode Partner,  Vori Health By combining a physician-led care model with data-driven insights and longitudinal support, Vori Health is helping extend specialty care beyond episodic encounters and into continuous, whole-person care.

In this episode of Next in Media, I sit down with Ryan Detert, CEO of Influential, the creator marketing company that was acquired by Publicis in 2024. Since the acquisition, Influential has seen massive growth, also acquiring Captiv8 to build out a global offering combining technology, services, and measurement all in one place. Ryan and I dig into how brands are structuring their creator teams, why a center of excellence led by media is where the most success is happening, and how technology (especially brand safety tools) has become the non negotiable foundation for scaling influencer campaigns. We also cover the measurement question that every marketer is asking: can you prove creator ROI? Ryan walks us through how MMMs are finally capturing creator value, why always on strategies beat tentpole campaigns, and how platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram are each fighting for attention in different ways. We get into the AI question too, from "slop" concerns to the future of creator likeness licensing and NIL rights. Ryan makes the case that AI will transform the back end of the business (speed, sourcing, brand safety) long before it replaces human creators in the feed. Plus, Ryan shares why the greatest ROI often comes from 100 micro creators rather than one mega deal. __________________________________________________ Key Highlights

In part two of this series, Dr. Tesha Monteith and Dr. Andrew Hershey discuss appropriate treatment strategies to prevent migraines in children and adolescents.

Fremanezumab in Children and Adolescents with Episodic Migraine. N Engl J Med. 2026;394(3):243-252. doi:10.1056/NEJMoa2504546  Show transcript:  Dr. Tesha Monteith: This is Tesha Monteith with the Neurology Minute. I'm back with Andrew Hershey, professor of Pediatrics and Director of the Division of Neurology at Cincinnati Children's and the Children's Headache Center. This is part two of our discussion on his paper published in the New England Journal of Medicine, fremanezumab in Children and Adolescents with Episodic Migraine. Andrew, now that we have fremanezumab approved for prevention of episodic migraine in children and adolescents, and we have a number of other devices and treatments for patients that can be used as part of FDA-approved treatment or even off-label, can you discuss an appropriate treatment paradigm to prevent migraine? Dr. Andrew Hershey: I think the first and foremost part of the paradigm is to identify the disease, so recognition that headaches are a component of the disease migraine, so you have headaches attacks due to migraine is an essential part. Many of the children, adolescents and their families are unaware that that is even what they're having, and clarifying the etiology actually goes a long way. One of my former mentors, Dr. Prensky, always said that 50% of kids get better from just seeing a child neurologist, and I think it's that clarification of the diagnosis. Second to that, you need to provide a very adequate acute treatment as well as what's probably even more essential than anything else is healthy lifestyle habits. So regular eating, drinking, sleeping, and exercise. And then finally, if the headache is causing severe disability or frequent headaches or interfering with the child's school, home or social life, the prevention medications may need to be added. And this is where the fremanezumab, or if you prefer devices, devices can be used for both the acute and preventive treatment. Dr. Tesha Monteith: Well, thank you for the summary, and congratulations again on your paper. Dr. Andrew Hershey: Thank you. Dr. Tesha Monteith: Do check out the full podcast for more details about the paper and treatment of migraine in children and adolescents. This is Tesha Monteith. Thank you for listening to the Neurology Minute.

A young boy presents with exercise-induced episodic gait disturbance. Dr. Shekeeb Mohammad analyses the clinical phenomenology alongside laboratory and neuroimaging findings, systematically exploring the differential diagnosis before arriving at the final diagnosis.

In part one of this two-part series, Dr. Tesha Monteith and Dr. Andrew Hershey summarize findings from the SPACE trial evaluating fremanezumab in adolescents and children with migraine. Show citation: Hershey AD, Szperka CL, Barbanti P, et al. Fremanezumab in Children and Adolescents with Episodic Migraine. N Engl J Med. 2026;394(3):243-252. doi:10.1056/NEJMoa2504546  Show transcript:  Dr. Tesha Monteith: Hi, this is Tesha Monteith with the Neurology Minute. I'm here with Andrew Hershey, Professor of Pediatrics and Director of the Division of Neurology at Cincinnati Children's and the Children's Headache Center. We're here talking about his new paper published in the New England Journal of Medicine, Fremanezumab in Children and Adolescents with Episodic Migraine. Andrew, thank you for being on our Neurology Minutes. Dr. Andrew Hershey: Thank you for inviting me. Dr. Tesha Monteith: Can you summarize the findings of the space trial investigating Fremanezumab for adolescents and children with migraine? Dr. Andrew Hershey: This is one of the four monoclonal antibodies against CGRP, or it's this receptor that had been proven effective for adults. And it's the first one, the formazepam, that's been able to report its effectiveness in children and adolescents with less than 15 headache days per month. This study looked at over 200 children adolescents that were in a double-blinded randomized placebo controlled study. And reached its primary, as well as its secondary endpoint of a reduction compared to placebo. And the number of attacks of migraine per month, as well as a greater than 50% reduction in the number of headache attacks per month, with minimal to no side effects, the most notable side effect being injection site erythema. Dr. Tesha Monteith: Great. Thank you so much for providing that update. Do check out the full podcast for more details about his paper and the treatment of migraine in children and adolescents. This is Tesha Monteith. Thank you for listening to the Neurology Minute.
