“Climate change is the biggest health threat of our century, so we need to train clinicians for a future where it will alter disease patterns, the demand on health systems, and how care is delivered,” says Dr. Sandro Demaio, director of the WHO Asia-Pacific Centre for Environment and Health, underscoring the stakes behind the organization's first regionally-focused climate and health strategy. The five-year plan Dr. Demaio is leading aims to help governments in 38 countries with 2.2 billion people manage rising heat, extreme weather, sea-level change, air pollution and food insecurity by adapting health systems, protecting vulnerable populations, and reducing emissions from the healthcare sector itself. In this timely interview with Raise the Line host Michael Carrese, Dr. Demaio draws on his experiences in emergency medicine, global public health, pandemic response and climate policy to argue for an interconnected approach to strengthening systems and preparing a healthcare workforce to meet the heath impacts of growing environmental challenges. This is a great opportunity to learn how climate change is reshaping medicine, public health and the future of care delivery.

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
A judge declared Nick Reiner "gravely disabled" in 2020. Licensed fiduciary Steven Baer took control of his treatment decisions. Nick could be forced into a locked psychiatric facility against his will. The Reiners obtained the most powerful legal tool California offers families dealing with severe mental illness. It lasted one year. Four years later, both parents are dead.Here's what the law actually does: if a family provides food, clothing, and shelter for a mentally ill loved one, that person may no longer qualify as "gravely disabled." The conservatorship can expire not because the patient improved—but because loving parents kept caring. The system forces families to choose between supporting their children and maintaining legal authority to force treatment. The Reiners appear to have been trapped by that impossible choice.We break down the full timeline: 2019 police calls to the Brentwood home. Nick's reported schizophrenia diagnosis around 2020. The conservatorship that ended after one year. The medication change approximately one month before the killings that sources say triggered a "complete break from reality." And we examine why former conservator Steven Baer will almost certainly testify—and what that means for both prosecution and defense strategies.But the Reiner case is a symptom of a sixty-year policy failure. Before California's 1967 Lanterman-Petris-Short Act, families could petition courts to hospitalize violent, psychotic relatives. That system is gone. Today, someone can be paranoid, delusional, and dangerous but still walk out the door if they can say where they're going to sleep. California went from 37,000 patients in state hospitals to fewer than 1,500 on involuntary conservatorships.The conservatorship didn't fail because the Reiners failed. It may have failed because the law worked exactly as designed. Two bodies later, the system finally has authority it wouldn't grant the people who loved him.#NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #LPSConservatorship #StevenBaer #Deinstitutionalization #MentalHealthLaw #HiddenKillers #CaliforniaLaw #SystemFailureJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Hidden Killers LIVE to break down the systemic failures that allowed Nick Reiner to cycle through treatment for 30 years without ever being properly helped. We're taking your questions on why the mental health system failed the Reiner family despite unlimited resources.Nick went to 18-plus rehab facilities. He'd stay 30 days, detox, and leave before any real psychiatric work could happen. Sources say doctors didn't put him on a psychiatric hold during his medication transition—a hold that could have lasted 14 days. Patient autonomy laws let him refuse treatment and walk away.What does appropriate care for schizoaffective disorder actually look like? Does it even exist? Why can't families with unlimited money get better outcomes? Join us live as Shavaun explains what went wrong and what other families need to know.#NickReiner #RobReiner #LIVE #MentalHealth #Rehab #HiddenKillersLive #ShavaunScott #Treatment #SystemFailureJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

And we're off! The first episode of #OTR of 2026, From Risk to Revenue Clarity: How One Health System Transformed OP CDI Performance.I continue to beat the drum of outpatient CDI because I believe in it. Risk adjustment and capitated payments are a superior reimbursement mechanism than fee-for-service. Certainly not perfect, but I believe they are better aligned with keeping patients healthy.It's also an exciting new avenue for CDI and coding professionals to work.Making it work isn't easy. Success requires new workflows, new metrics, and an even greater level of physician education/buy-in than acute care settings.We get into all of this on today's show.My guest Jason Jobes, SVP of Norwood Solutions, is a whiz when it comes to value-based care, you will be hard-pressed to find a more informed speaker.Note: You can download the slides referenced on the show here, though they are not needed.

Rob Reiner knew his son could hurt him. He reportedly said it out loud the night before he died. And there was nothing he could legally do about it. Nick Reiner is now facing two counts of first-degree murder for allegedly stabbing his parents to death. His defense attorney is building an insanity case. But the real story isn't just about Nick's mental illness — it's about a system that trapped his parents with no way out. California's Lanterman-Petris-Short Act requires imminent danger for involuntary commitment. Not "probably dangerous." Not "clearly deteriorating." Imminent. Right now. This second. Families get 72-hour holds that end the moment the patient says the right words. And addicts are very good at saying the right words. Nick reportedly gamed seventeen rehab programs. He admitted on the Dopey podcast to staying sober just long enough to get released. He convinced his parents to trust him over the professionals. He engineered the arrangement that put him in their guesthouse instead of a supervised facility. The options Rob and Michele had? Let him go to the streets. Hope he gets arrested. Become an untrained institution in their own home. Or fight for years to get a conservatorship that has to be renewed annually. They chose to keep him close. They were 78 and 70. They weren't trained for this. And according to reports, they were terrified. This is happening to families across America right now. The system tells them to set boundaries while their child spirals. Then we act shocked when tragedy strikes. Nick's accountability is coming. But the system that failed his parents deserves scrutiny too. #RobReiner #NickReiner #MicheleReiner #TrueCrimeToday #ReinerMurder #MentalHealth #TrueCrime #California #LPSAct #Justice Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The status quo is expensive, exhausting, and unsustainable—so we set out a practical playbook to do better in 2026. Nathan Kaufman shares ten no‑nonsense resolutions for health system leaders who want measurable outcomes, stronger teams, and smarter payer strategies without falling for vendor hype or wishful thinking.We get specific about capital discipline and why “mission” can't justify chronic losses that drain resources from services that actually improve patient care. We talk through what it takes to win the talent war by treating physicians as true partners, then dive into dyad leadership that cuts across supply chain, HR, and IT to remove friction and accelerate results. Culture becomes operational with real-time metrics, fast feedback loops, and leaders spending more time in the field and less time in meetings that signal low trust and unclear decisions.Payment strategy is front and center. We explain how to use 340B responsibly to close funding gaps, why some value-based schemes are a race to the bottom, and how to negotiate Medicare Advantage so contracts yield at least 100% of Medicare after accounting for administrative burden. Affordability demands that we take significant cost out by removing layers, standardizing clinical pathways, and focusing on core services rather than chasing panaceas like provider-owned health plans or sponsored “research” that flatters a product.If you're ready to lead with data, align teams, and make tough calls that protect patient access and quality, this conversation is your roadmap. Subscribe, share with a colleague who needs a dose of operational courage, and leave a review telling us which resolution you'll tackle first.Support the showEngage the conversation on Substack at The Common Bridge!
