Raj Shah and Rick Borek of SC Wealth Advisors discuss the growing trend of financial influencers – finfluencers – and why people can be easily misled. They explain how many people online may be getting paid to offer one product and have little to no background in doing so and are getting a commission for offering it. Raj and Rick then share how they have access to a multitude of products and strategies and can tailor those to a specific plan, whereas online advice is often very generic and not right for every person. And they stress to check with an advisor first before committing to something from a random person.

What does the way we treat our elders and caregivers say about us as a society?In this episode of Straight Out of Health IT, Peter Murphy Lewis, filmmaker and healthcare advocate, explores the urgent challenges facing long-term care in the U.S., including underfunded facilities, a shrinking workforce, low caregiver wages, and a rapidly aging population. Long-term care is a reflection of how society values its elders and caregivers, emphasizing the growing need for reform as millions more Americans turn 65 each year. The system, heavily reliant on undercompensated workers, primarily women of color, and unsupported family caregivers, struggles to provide high-quality, dignified care.Peter Murphy Lewis shares how his documentary People Worth Caring About was born out of gratitude for caregivers who helped his grandparents. Originally intended to help with staffing shortages in Nebraska, the project has expanded to shift public perception of long-term care nationwide. Peter highlights how fear of aging, death, and dementia distorts views of nursing homes and deters both investment and interest in the sector. By focusing on caregivers and their impact, the documentary seeks to replace stigma with understanding and connection.The conversation also touches on innovative solutions, from intergenerational care models to global tech integration, and the importance of redefining what "nursing home" means to residents and families. Peter notes that while negative perceptions often come from the media, positive views tend to stem from direct experiences with caregivers. He believes changing the narrative and language around long-term care is crucial, and that investing in relationships, community programs, and the dignity of residents must be non-negotiable in shaping the future of elder care.Tune in for a powerful conversation with Peter Murphy Lewis as he explores the human stories, hidden challenges, and bold ideas shaping the future of long-term care in America!

Could artificial intelligence be the solution to our eldercare crisis? In this riveting episode, we dive deep into the intersection of technology and compassionate care with Breana Patel, founder and CEO of Owie AI. The statistics are sobering – we're facing a projected shortage of half a million nurses within the next decade while our aging population grows exponentially. But Breana's innovative approach offers a ray of hope in what can seem like an overwhelming challenge. Her company is developing contactless AI monitoring systems that can predict patient needs, prevent adverse events, and reduce the administrative burden on already overwhelmed caregivers. Imagine a world where technology can alert staff before a fall occurs, detect early signs of dehydration, or recognize when a non-verbal patient is in distress. These aren't futuristic dreams but tangible solutions Breana's team is currently piloting in healthcare facilities. What makes this approach revolutionary is its focus on enhancing rather than replacing human care – giving caregivers more time for meaningful interactions by automating documentation and routine monitoring. We explore the profound implications for transparency in long-term care, how AI might serve as a digital companion for isolated residents, and the careful privacy considerations built into these systems. Breana shares her personal motivation behind founding Owie AI after witnessing a loved one's complications from undetected health events, highlighting how technology can help prevent similar situations for countless families. As our society grapples with policy decisions that will fundamentally shape eldercare for decades to come, innovations like these represent our best hope for creating dignified, quality care for all. Join us for this thought-provoking conversation about how artificial intelligence might become our most powerful tool in ensuring no one is forgotten or neglected in their vulnerable years.

Money gifted with good intentions can lead to devastating financial consequences when long-term care becomes necessary. This eye-opening discussion between Elder Law attorneys Greg McIntyre and Brenton Begley tackles one of the most misunderstood areas of senior planning: how well-meaning asset transfers can backfire when seeking Medicaid and special assistance benefits.The conversation cuts through common misconceptions, particularly the damaging belief that the federal gift tax exemption (currently $19,000 per person annually) provides a "free pass" for Medicaid eligibility. As the attorneys clarify, these systems operate under completely different rules, and conflating them can lead to benefit denials precisely when you need care most. They break down the dreaded "look-back period" - that window of time where every financial gift or property transfer comes under scrutiny and potentially triggers penalties that delay essential benefits.Beyond just identifying pitfalls, McIntyre and Begley outline strategic approaches that actually work within the rules. From specialized deeds that protect property without triggering penalties to legally-sound asset protection strategies, they demonstrate that with proper planning, families can preserve their life savings while still accessing critical care benefits. Their expertise reveals the reward in finding that balance between asset protection and benefit eligibility - ensuring seniors can receive necessary care without sacrificing everything they've built.Whether you're planning ahead or facing an immediate care crisis, this conversation offers crucial guidance for navigating the complex maze of long-term care benefits. The attorneys' closing offer of complimentary consultations underscores their commitment to helping families protect what matters most while securing the care they deserve.

In this episode, we confront a truth many couples avoid: one partner will likely outlive the other. Statistically, especially in heterosexual relationships, it's often the woman. That fact shapes the financial, emotional, and logistical choices couples need to make as they plan for retirement. We talk about why it's essential to create a shared plan—one that not only protects assets, but gives peace of mind to both people involved.We open by acknowledging that in many relationships, one person traditionally handles the finances. If that person passes first, the surviving partner can be left not only grieving, but scrambling to understand the financial puzzle. Amy shares how often she hears from women who feel anxious and uncertain when they're suddenly in charge. These women aren't incapable—they just haven't been part of the process.The heart of our conversation is about empowering both partners to be part of financial planning. Amy outlines the three big areas where questions tend to show up: understanding the financial picture, handling the emotional baggage around trust and confidence, and building knowledge to make informed decisions. It's not about control—it's about shared responsibility and kindness. We highlight how reframing conversations away from aging and death toward security and love can help bring both partners to the table more comfortably.We also touch on how crucial it is for the financially involved partner—often men in older generations—to help build a bridge of understanding and trust. Amy uses the metaphor of setting up a tent: it takes both people holding up their corner to make the structure stand. We talk practical next steps, including setting up regular financial check-ins, building a “what-if” folder with key documents and passwords, and ensuring both partners feel respected and heard in these discussions.Ultimately, we conclude that it's never too late to get involved, and one of the most powerful legacies anyone can leave behind is a partner who feels confident to navigate life after loss. This isn't just about money—it's about care, connection, and preparing for a future that's secure for both people in the relationship.

As medical and surgical treatment of congenital heart lesions improve, the vast majority of babies born with heart problems are living long and productive lives. While it is remarkable, it also brings new challenges for their care, especially during the critical transition to adulthood. A new medical specialty has developed to address this specific need, driven by the growing demand for expertise in the lifelong care of patients with congenital heart lesions. To unpack this topic, we are joined by Roni Jacobsen, MD. She is the Medical Director of our Adult Congenital Heart Disease Program at Children's Hospital Colorado. We have one of the largest programs in the country with exceptional outcomes, treating patients with congenital heart problems that continue into adulthood. Dr. Jacobsen specializes in internal medicine as well as pediatrics and is trained in pediatric cardiology and adult congenital heart disease. She is an Associate Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Some highlights from this episode include:  Defining adult congenital heart disease and understanding its differences from other heart diseases  Why so many patients don't understand their disease  Understanding the advancements in treatments  The role that pediatricians play in steering families towards continued care and proper transition once that child hits adulthood  For more information on Children's Colorado, visit: childrenscolorado.org.

We're joined by Frances Reaves, who shares insights from her work in estate and Medicaid planning, on how to get your parents ready for long term care. Frances explains the importance of preparing for elder care before it's urgently needed, sharing her personal experience with her own parents and husband, who is currently navigating Alzheimer's care. The conversation dives into the realities of elder care, including the challenges of navigating the healthcare system, the high costs of in-home versus facility care, and the value of long-term care insurance.  We discuss...  Francis Reads is an elder law attorney specializing in estate and Medicaid planning. She founded a service within her law firm called “Parent Your Parents” to support elder care planning. Elder care generally begins around age 65, when Medicare becomes available. A major challenge in elder care is systemic apathy and poor communication in facilities. In-home care is the gold standard if money is no object, costing $12,000–$15,000 per month. Reverse mortgages and long-term care insurance are common strategies to fund elder care. Long-term care insurance works similarly to car insurance—ideally unused but crucial. The cost of long-term care and facilities can quickly deplete even sizable retirement savings. The best age to purchase long-term care insurance is between 55 and 60. For-profit facilities are incentivized to keep patients alive, not necessarily to improve their quality of life. If you have no one to care for you, plan ahead with long-term care insurance, savings, and legal documents like power of attorney and healthcare proxy. People who choose to provide full-time care often risk financial ruin if long-term care plans or savings are not in place. There's potential to arbitrage life expectancy in financial tools like reverse mortgages or life insurance. Many elders struggle with losing independence, especially around giving up driving. Adult children often become parental figures to their own parents, which can create emotional strain. Financial advisors and lawyers play a key role in spotting and preventing elder financial abuse. Professionals should watch for signs of undue influence or financial exploitation and speak up if concerned.
