To wrap up this year's author podcast series, The American Journal of Managed Care® speaks with Angela Liu, PhD, MPH, assistant research professor at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, about her December 2025 study, "Mental Health Care Use After Leaving Medicare Advantage for Traditional Medicare." Her research analyzed Medicare beneficiaries with mental health diagnoses who switched from Medicare Advantage (MA) to traditional Medicare (TM), examining their use of mental health services in the year before and after the switch. In this Managed Care Cast episode, Liu discusses what inspired her research, highlights the key findings, and explores ways to improve equitable access to mental health services for Medicare beneficiaries.

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we delve into the significant events of 2025, a year marked by pivotal scientific breakthroughs, regulatory changes, and industry trends that have reshaped drug development and patient care.One of the standout advancements was Novo Nordisk gaining FDA approval for an oral version of Wegovy, a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist for obesity management. This marks a notable shift in treatment accessibility, as it provides an easier alternative to injectables for those managing weight and cardiovascular risks. This development could significantly enhance patient adherence and broaden access to this critical therapy.However, not all news was positive. Pfizer faced a challenging situation when a patient death occurred in the extension of their Hympavzi hemophilia study. Such incidents highlight the intrinsic risks of clinical trials, especially within gene therapy realms where safety monitoring is paramount. These events remind us of the delicate balance between innovation and patient safety in advanced biologic therapies.In legal news, Johnson & Johnson was ordered by a Baltimore jury to pay $1.56 billion in a talc-related cancer case. This ruling underscores heightened scrutiny on product safety and consumer protection within the pharmaceutical industry, potentially influencing future litigation and regulatory measures.Clinical trial outcomes also presented mixed results. Neurocrine Biosciences' Ingrezza did not meet efficacy endpoints in its phase 3 trial for cerebral palsy-related dyskinesia. Although it is approved for other movement disorders, this setback reflects the complexities involved in expanding drug indications. Such challenges highlight ongoing hurdles in translating preclinical successes into clinical realities.Despite geopolitical tensions, particularly between China and the U.S., Chinese biotech firms thrived, maintaining robust deal activity. China's continued growth as an innovation hub is driven by strategic investments and collaborations that bolster global drug development efforts, underscoring its increasing influence in life sciences.Regulatory landscapes also shifted with proposals from the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Innovation to align U.S. drug prices with international rates under Medicare Parts B and D. These proposed models could significantly impact pricing strategies and market dynamics within the U.S., requiring pharmaceutical companies to adapt while ensuring equitable access to medications.Ethical challenges surfaced as six individuals were charged with insider trading involving biotech stocks. Such incidents highlight the necessity for stringent ethical standards and regulatory oversight to maintain investor confidence and market integrity.Meanwhile, AstraZeneca's extended partnership with Niowave for actinium-225 supply reflects an interest in radiopharmaceuticals as targeted cancer therapies. This collaboration highlights the potential of radiopharmaceuticals in oncology, opening promising avenues for precision medicine approaches.As 2025 closes, it's clear that this year has been one of both triumphs and trials for the pharmaceutical and biotech industries. Scientific innovations like Novo Nordisk's oral GLP-1 receptor agonist offer new hope for patients, yet challenges such as clinical trial setbacks and legal battles indicate ongoing hurdles in drug development and commercialization. These developments will likely influence industry strategies and regulatory policies as we advance into 2026.The sustained momentum of China's biotech industry amid global trade tensions remains notable. This trend reflects China's strategic investments in biotech capabilities and its growing role in global markets despite geopolitical frictions.In clinical research, Hope BioscienceSupport the show

In this milestone 100th episode of the Common Sense Financial Podcast, host Brian Skrobonja delves into the critical topic of managing taxes in retirement. The episode focuses on strategies for minimizing tax liabilities, especially for retirees with tax-deferred accounts facing potential hefty tax bills. Brian emphasizes the importance of sustainable income creation during retirement and the role of tax optimization in this process. Most people envision their retirement to be built from predominantly tax-free income, but after many years of deferring taxes, retirees are facing a sizable tax bill on distributions taken from their retirement accounts that could be a third or more of what has been accumulated. When you're saving for retirement, growth of your assets is the priority. But many people don't realize that once they retire that's no longer true. The priority is actually creating sustainable income to support you through retirement while minimizing taxes. A common issue I've seen is future retirees knowing they will owe taxes on their deferred accounts, but not realizing the extent of the problem since the rules change once they retire. Many retirees we work with tend to have the same income goals in retirement, yet with fewer deductions. They no longer have children or mortgage interest to help them offset their tax burdens, which makes the situation more complex. Delaying distributions isn't an option either. Required Minimum Distributions will eventually force your hand. There are two tax problems facing retirees: taxes you will have to contend with today, and taxes that you will have to contend with in the future. With the national deficit continuing to rise, do you expect tax rates to go down in the future or go up? The most likely answer is that tax rates are on the rise, so we should be planning accordingly. There are two possibilities to help minimize the level at which you participate in paying your fair share towards the government's future revenue increases. You can either complete a Roth conversion or through tax deferred withdrawals contribute to an overfunded permanent life insurance policy. Making the decision of which strategy to implement is the easy part. The trick really is completing this process with minimal tax liabilities, which requires specialized knowledge. The progressive nature of the code makes understanding your tax burden complicated and miscalculating this could result in having a larger tax liability than anticipated. Depending on your income level, a taxable distribution can subject your Social Security to additional taxes. This is a separate calculation from the income tax brackets and uses a two step process to determine how much of your social security will be subject to taxation. This is important to know because a taxable distribution may not only push you into a higher income tax bracket, but it could trigger additional taxes on your social security, which could result in a higher effective rate. You should also be aware of the impact a taxable distribution can have on Medicare premiums. The impact of any possible premium increase is typically delayed by two years. This is one of those things that often comes as a surprise when people make decisions about distributions. The antidote to taxable income is deductions, credits and losses which can help reduce the net income subject to tax. There are a few options that can help offset the burden of taxes and make the transition from tax-deferred to tax-free easier, but they don't work for everyone, which is why we recommend working with a professional. The first thing is a donor advised fund or DAF. This allows you to contribute future charitable donations into a fund that you control when distributions are made that can also receive the tax benefit of the donation in the year you make the contribution into the fund. By making multiple years of donations in a single year into that fund, you have the potential of helping offset a taxable distribution from your retirement account in that year. The second is a Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT), where you can contribute future charitable donations into the trust and receive the tax benefit of the donation in the year you make the contribution. You can also receive income from the trust while you're living within IRS limits. A CRT is a more complex arrangement than a DAF with many options and requires an attorney to draft the trust. The third is a qualified charitable donation or QCD, which allows for anyone over the age of 70 and a half to make a direct donation from a qualified account to a charity. The fourth is something known as IDCs, or intangible drilling costs, which allows accredited investors to participate in the drilling expenses of an oil and gas company that could provide reportable tax losses that can help offset all forms of income, as well as the potential for cash flow back to the investor once the wells are operational.     Mentioned in this episode: BrianSkrobonja.com SkrobonjaFinancial.com Common Sense Financial Podcast on YouTube  Common Sense Financial Podcast on Spotify Brian's article - From Tax-Deferred to Tax-Free: Navigating Taxes in Retirement   References for this episode: https://www.usdebtclock.org/ https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-provides-tax-inflation-adjustments-for-tax-year-2024 https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-provides-tax-inflation-adjustments-for-tax-year-2024 https://www.ssa.gov/benefits/retirement/planner/taxes.html https://www.ssa.gov/benefits/medicare/medicare-premiums.html#anchor5 https://www.irs.gov/charities-non-profits/charitable-organizations/charitable-contribution-deductions https://www.irs.gov/charities-non-profits/charitable-remainder-trusts https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/qualified-charitable-distributions-allow-eligible-ira-owners-up-to-100000-in-tax-free-gifts-to-charity https://www.investopedia.com/terms/i/intangible-drilling-costs.asp https://www.crfb.org/blogs/tax-break-down-intangible-drilling-costs     Securities offered only by duly registered individuals through Madison Avenue Securities, LLC.

Afraid You'll Never Be Able to Retire? You're Not Alone. Here's the Plan.What if retirement wasn't scary anymore?In this episode of Queer Money, we share the real, unfiltered results of a recent Queer Money community poll — and what it reveals about the five biggest fears LGBTQ+ people have about retirement.From “bag lady energy” to healthcare panic, from how much is enough to where can I live safely and affordably, this episode isn't about shame — it's about clarity, strategy, and community.If you've ever wondered:Will I run out of money?What happens if healthcare bankrupts me before Medicare?Can I retire early… or abroad?What if Social Security or Medicare changes?This episode is for you.

The job market isn't what it used to be. A strong resume and decades of experience are no longer enough to carry even the most qualified applicants, especially in a market flooded with applications and filtered by AI before a human ever looks twice. Hiring works differently now, and that shift catches a lot of experienced workers off guard. That's why today's guest matters big time. We're joined by Rick Denius, founder of HR Search Co., to break down how the hiring process really works today and what job seekers need to understand to navigate it.In this conversation, Rick walks through what he sees every day behind the scenes of hiring — why companies post jobs as a last resort, how roles actually get filled before they ever appear online, and where experienced candidates lose leverage without realizing it. He explains why applying online so often leads nowhere, how age bias quietly shows up in modern hiring (ageism is real!), and what older workers can do to stay visible and in demand.

2025 has been a year of significant highs and lows, a bittersweet time marked by personal loss but also tremendous growth in our community of listeners and clients. As we wrap up the year, I wanted to take a moment to reflect and, more importantly, to give back by answering the most pressing questions on your minds. In this episode, I'm tackling the top 10 most asked financial questions I received in 2025 from both clients and listeners. From the future solvency of Social Security and the reality of rising inflation to the specifics of Bitcoin and long-term care, we are covering the topics that directly impact your retirement confidence. I also share a special thank you gift to you my listeners: a significant discount on my Retirement Readiness Review course to help you kickstart your 2026 planning. Whether you are wondering if you should pay off your mortgage or how to find a truly objective financial advisor, this episode provides the clear, direct answers you need to navigate your financial future.  You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... [00:00] Will Social Security be there for you when I retire? [06:04] How to handle rising inflation in retirement. [12:34] Should you be investing in Bitcoin in 2026? [17:37] The pros and cons of paying off your mortgage early. [21:51] Getting your children started with investing and saving. [26:01] Protecting your investments during a market downturn.  Social Security Solvency: Should You Worry? One of the biggest fears retirees face is the potential expiration of Social Security. The most recent trustees' report projects that benefits can be paid at 100% until roughly 2033. If no changes are made by then, benefits could be reduced by approximately 20%. However, history suggests that Congress will act to prevent such a drastic cut, especially given how heavily the average American relies on this income. We also saw recent changes with the "Social Security Fairness Act" passed just before President Biden left office, which restored benefits for many teachers and state employees previously affected by reductions. While this adds strain to the system, it highlights the political will to support retirees. Inflation and Investment Strategy Inflation has been a persistent concern since the post-COVID stimulus era. For retirees on a fixed income, combating this is difficult because pensions and Social Security cost-of-living adjustments are automatic and out of your control. The single best hedge against inflation is your investment portfolio. Historically, stocks are the only asset class that has significantly outpaced inflation over time. While this comes with volatility, maintaining an exposure to equities (often 50–70% for many retirees) is often necessary to ensure your purchasing power lasts as long as you do. The "Retirement Number" Formula Forget the arbitrary goal of saving "$1 million" or "$2 million." Retirement planning is about paycheck replacement. To find your number: Calculate Expenses: Determine your monthly spending needs in retirement. Subtract Fixed Income: Deduct your expected Social Security and pension income from that expense number. Determine the Gap: The remaining amount must come from your portfolio (401k, IRA, brokerage). Apply the Withdrawal Rate: Using a conservative 4% withdrawal rate, determine if your savings can cover that gap. Don't forget to account for taxes! You can use online calculators or work with a CPA to estimate your after-tax income. Specific Asset Questions: Bitcoin and Mortgages Bitcoin: Despite its popularity, Bitcoin remains a highly speculative asset. In 2025, while the stock market saw gains of 15-18%, Bitcoin was down significantly, highlighting its volatility. For most retirees, the risks outweigh the benefits when a standard diversified portfolio can already meet your income needs. Mortgage Payoff: Emotional peace of mind often conflicts with financial math. If you have a low interest rate (e.g., 3%), rushing to pay off that "cheap money" rarely makes sense when you could earn 5% or more on your investments. Furthermore, taking a large lump sum from an IRA to pay off a house could trigger a massive tax bill and even IRMAA surcharges on your Medicare premiums. Tax Planning: Roth Conversions and New Legislation With the passing of the "One Big Beautiful Tax Act" in 2025, we have new opportunities for tax planning. Roth Conversions: If you expect your future tax rate to be higher than your current rate, converting traditional IRA funds to Roth can save you money long-term. New Deductions: The new legislation allows for a higher SALT (State and Local Tax) deduction cap of $40,000 until 2030, which is a huge benefit for those in high-tax states like Connecticut. This might create a unique window over the next few years to perform conversions more tax-efficiently.

It's Monday, December 22nd, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Five Iranian Christians sentenced to 10-year prison term Five Iranian Christians were sentenced to an average of 10 years in prison for “propaganda” and “collusion” for practices such as prayer and baptism, and for distributing Bibles and Christian literature, reports International Christian Concern. Matthew 5:10 says, “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of Heaven.” Though the verdict was given on October 21, it was not communicated to any of the prisoners until late November and early December. They have been given 20 days to appeal their case before the Revolutionary Court of Tehran. US launches strikes on Syria in response to killing of 2 American soldiers Vengeance struck in Syria Friday as U.S. forces attacked Islamic State targets in retaliation for an attack that killed three Americans last week, reports The Western Journal. A U.S. military official said F-15 and A-10 warplanes, Apache attack helicopters, and HIMARS rockets struck multiple targets, according to the Wall Street Journal. On X, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth wrote, “Earlier today, U.S. forces commenced OPERATION HAWKEYE STRIKE in Syria to eliminate ISIS fighters, infrastructure, and weapons sites in direct response to the attack on U.S. forces that occurred on December 13th in Palmyra, Syria. This is not the beginning of a war — it is a declaration of vengeance.” Hegseth added, “The United States of America, under President Trump's leadership, will never hesitate and never relent to defend our people. As we said directly following the savage attack, if you target Americans — anywhere in the world — you will spend the rest of your brief, anxious life knowing the United States will hunt you, find you, and ruthlessly kill you. Today, we hunted and we killed our enemies. Lots of them. And we will continue.” Netanyahu plans to brief Trump on possible new Iran strikes Israeli officials have grown increasingly concerned that Iran is expanding production of its ballistic missile program, which was damaged by Israeli military strikes earlier this year, reports NBC News.   Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is preparing to brief President Donald Trump about attacking Iran again. Israeli officials also are concerned that Iran is reconstituting nuclear enrichment sites the U.S. bombed in June. But, they added, the officials view Iran's efforts to rebuild facilities where they produce the ballistic missiles and to repair its crippled air defense systems as more important. RFK Jr calls mutilating “sex-rejecting” trans procedures malpractice Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced Thursday that the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is taking steps to push back against what he described as "sex-rejecting" transgender procedures for minors, reports The Christian Post. During an hour-long press conference, he warned, "So-called 'gender-affirming care' has inflicted lasting physical and psychological damage on vulnerable young people. This is not medicine; it is malpractice." KENNEDY: “We're done with junk science, drive by ideological pursuits, not the wellbeing of children.” Kennedy said the proposed HHS rules, which are subject to a 60-day comment period, would bar hospitals participating in Medicare and Medicaid from performing transgender procedures on children, citing risks of irreversible harm such as infertility, impaired sexual function, bone density loss and altered brain development. He added, "Sex-rejecting procedures are neither safe nor effective treatment for children with gender dysphoria.” Abortions up as abortion pills flourish, Democrat states fund killing babies Last week, the Society of Family Planning released updated abortion data which documented over 591,000 abortions were performed in the first six months of 2025, reports LifeNews.com. This represents a 1.1 percent increase when compared to the first six months of 2024. Two state Medicaid programs have recently started to fund elective surgical abortions. Nevada's Medicaid program began covering elective abortions in mid-December of 2024, and Delaware's Medicaid program started covering elective abortions as of January 1, 2025. Not surprisingly, there has been an uptick in abortions in those states – an increase by 8% in Nevada and 10% in Delaware. However, the main takeaway from this new WeCount data is that the percentage of chemical abortions done via telehealth continues to increase. In the first six months of 2024, just under 20 percent of all abortions were done via telehealth. That figure increased to 27 percent for the first six months of 2025. Telehealth abortions are undermining the strong pro-life laws that many states enacted in the aftermath of the Dobbs decision. Isaiah 59:7 says, “Their feet rush into sin; they are swift to shed innocent blood. They pursue evil schemes; acts of violence mark their ways.” Preventing telehealth abortions needs to be a top priority for the pro-life movement. State attorneys general in Florida and Texas have recently sued the Food and Drug Administration over policy changes regarding chemical abortions. Kirk Cameron's follow-up podcast on annihilationism Kirk Cameron's recent 39-minute podcast in which he supported annihilationism has created quite a bit of controversy. In the opening to a 16-minute follow-up podcast, Cameron said this. CAMERON: “No doubt you've caught wind of the controversy that's swirling around. Let me ask you a question, and I want you to imagine that this question is not coming from me on a podcast, but from someone you love. “What if your son or your daughter looked you in the eye and said, ‘Dad, Mom, I know you believe in hell. I know you believe that God is just. I know you believe that sin is serious. And I know that Jesus is the only way to Heaven. “So, when a unrepentant person, who doesn't turn to Jesus, dies, what does the Bible actually say happens to them? Are they preserved forever and kept alive by God in a place of endless conscious torment, suffering forever, weeping and wailing and gnashing their teeth with no end? “‘Or is the judgment that Scripture describes something different? Is it still real, still just, still severe, but culminating in what the Bible calls death, destruction, or the second death, which is the lake of fire?' “What would your answer be? I'm not asking for what you've always believed or been taught, but what do you believe the Scriptures actually teach? That's the question that my son asked me, and that's the question that started this conversation.” Cameron's support for annihilationism has sparked debate in Evangelical circles. Longtime ministry partner Ray Comfort, founder of Living Waters and co-host with Cameron on The Way of the Master, responded thoughtfully. “While we believe Kirk is sincere, we believe that conditional mortality and annihilationism are erroneous views, and that the Bible's clear teaching on hell is known as eternal conscious torment,” according to GodReports.com. Other voices, including commentators Samuel Sey and theologian Owen Strachan, expressed concern, viewing the shift as departing from historic Christian teaching. Yet some see growing interest in annihilationism as a biblically grounded alternative that reconciles God's love with His judgment.

The countries within the EU and the U.K. have dealt with overwhelming censorship for decades now, is an all out assault on free speech coming to America? In the United Kingdom, 30 people are arrested every day for social media posts, retweets or even cartoons. Michael Shellenberger has been monitoring this dangerous trend and recently spoke to the EU Parliament. A very unpopular group of European leaders don't like when they see dissenting voices on the internet. Shellenberger describes a system in which the EU appoints so-called “trusted flaggers” – NGOs and academics who receive special access to the platforms' data in order to identify content that is to be removed. While President Trump has defunded a lot of the censorship taking place under Biden, this global censorship campaign has its sights set on America next. President Trump signed an executive order to move marijuana from Schedule 1 to Schedule 3, allowing medical research to be done for cannibodial medical purposes. Dr Oz is here today to discuss what this means for patients in pain or suffering from PTSD. As administrator of the Center for Medicaid and Medicare services, Dr Oz has already blocked fraudsters trying to scam Medicare.

On this episode of the podcast, Amanda Head sits down with Congressman Rich McCormick (R-GA) and Congresswoman Beth Van Duyne (R-TX) at the Republican Study Committee's most recent media row event.Rep. McCormick lays out how excessive regulation and lack of competition have driven healthcare costs sky-high, with insurance premiums up nearly 90% since the Affordable Care Act, while insurance company profits soared more than 230%. He explains why the average family of four now pays over $30,000 a year for healthcare and warns that Medicare and Medicaid are consuming more than a third of mandatory federal spending.Rep. Van Duyne breaks down the real economic and legislative damage caused by the recent 43-day government shutdown, detailing Republican efforts to secure the border, support CBP and homeland security, and advance tax policies aimed at strengthening American manufacturing. She also slams Democrats' healthcare agenda, calling Obamacare a failed experiment that enriched insurers while crushing families with higher premiums—and makes the case for a return to private, market-driven healthcare.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Is it possible to grow a thriving therapy practice while taking insurance? If you've ever wondered whether insurance billing is worth the headache, or how to do it right, this episode is for you. Today's guest, Jeremy Zug, co-founder of Practice Solutions, breaks down what private practice owners need to know about billing in order to be successful.  With over a decade in the healthcare industry and a team that manages billing for thousands of providers, Jeremy brings clarity and strategy to a topic that overwhelms a lot of therapists.  Whether you're solo and private pay or growing a group practice, you'll walk away with fresh insights, helpful mindset shifts, and even a few small changes that could dramatically improve your revenue. This episode answers... 1. Do I need to take insurance to grow my therapy practice? Not necessarily — but if you do, it needs to be intentional. Jeremy shares that some of the most successful practices limit themselves to one commercial payer and one government payer (like Medicaid or Medicare). This approach reduces administrative overwhelm and allows you to stay aligned with your clinical mission.  Trying to accept every insurance plan in your area can actually slow your growth, especially as your practice scales. Instead, focus on which payers make the most sense based on your long-term goals, who you serve, and what the reimbursement rates look like in your region.  Insurance can absolutely support practice growth, especially when it's chosen strategically. 2. When should I outsource my billing — and when should I bring it back in-house? Outsourcing makes the most sense when your caseload is full. That's usually around 25 to 30 active clients. At that point, billing becomes a time-consuming task that pulls you away from clinical work or team leadership. Jeremy recommends outsourcing to save time and reduce stress, which ultimately helps you grow faster.  But once your practice reaches about $2.5 to $3 million in revenue, it may be time to bring billing back in-house with a full-time hire. At that stage, having someone on your team who's dedicated to billing can help you scale more efficiently.  It's not a one-time decision. It's about matching your billing approach to your practice's size and complexity. 3. How can I improve my billing process and increase revenue? Even small tweaks to your billing workflow can make a big difference. Jeremy explains how simply reordering certain steps, like reviewing payment posting before resubmitting claims, can dramatically reduce denials and speed up revenue.  Many practices waste time by resubmitting the same flawed claims without resolving the underlying issue. He also stresses the importance of reviewing your insurance aging report regularly, which shows you what claims are still unpaid and where you might be losing money. Billing isn't just about submitting claims; it's about building a system that supports healthy cash flow.  The more visibility and control you have over your billing process, the more financially stable your practice becomes.  In This Episode, You'll Also Learn: Why less is more when it comes to insurance plans How your geography and demographics should shape your billing strategy The six key steps of billing, and which one to do before submitting claims When to outsource billing (and when to take it back in-house) How to use insurance aging reports to track lost revenue Why clean billing processes can boost staff retention The right way to negotiate insurance rates using data Real examples of practices recovering thousands of dollars   Links mentioned in this episode: Practice Solutions Website Insurance Rate Increase Request   Watch The Video:   This Episode Is Brought To You By:   RevKey specializes in Google Ads management for therapists, expertly connecting you with your ideal clients.

As 2025 winds down with markets near all-time highs, we focus on how investors can stay disciplined, tax-efficient, and emotionally grounded heading into 2026. Jeremiah Bates and Nic Daniels unpack why market volatility—driven by headlines, politics, and forecasts—shouldn't dictate financial decisions, and how time-based "bucket" strategies help protect lifestyle spending regardless of market swings. The guys go into common mistakes made by high-income earners, including excessive cash holdings, poor tax withholding, misreported backdoor Roth contributions, and costly surprises from mutual funds held in taxable accounts. Also, explaining how capital gains are taxed, how they affect Modified Adjusted Gross Income, and why understanding this distinction matters for Medicare premiums and tax planning. Listeners also got a detailed breakdown of Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) versus state Medical Savings Accounts (MSAs), including what expenses are eligible, when premiums can (and can't) be paid, and how HSAs can double as long-term tax-advantaged investment tools.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Hosts: Jeremiah Bates & Nic Daniels ————————————————————— Ataraxis PEO https://ataraxispeo.com Tree City Advisors of Apollon: https://www.treecityadvisors.com Apollon Wealth Management: https://apollonwealthmanagement.com/ —————————————————————

The Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA) approved plans for 340B rebate models set to take effect in January for nine of 10 drugs subject to the 2026 Medicare maximum fair prices. Rebates for the remaining drug on that list will kick in April 1. Swartz discusses how hospitals should prepare for this pilot program, which is set to upend decades of established 340B operations and impose intense financial and logistical burdens on safety-net hospitals nationwide.Medicaid, IRA Changes Set To Impact 340B HospitalsThis year also saw massive changes to Medicaid funding as well as Medicare pay changes under the implementation of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). Swartz says these developments are projected to shrink safety-net hospital margins even further. Renewed congressional focus is putting 340B in a high-profile spot, with potentially significant implications for the program and hospitals in the coming months.2026 Tips for HospitalsSwartz says she's identified two areas as more of a focus for HRSA audits this year: expanded scrutiny of offsite and on-site trial balances and the ways covered entities list shipping addresses. To prepare for possible shakeups in 2026, she recommends that covered entities begin and maintain cross-functional planning across departments and closely monitor denials, delays, and other costs from new rebate programs in addition to monitoring wholesale acquisition cost (WAC) changes and contract pharmacy developments.Resources340B Health Year-in-Review Webinar: 2025 Highlights and What's on the Horizon

Send us a textI fancy myself something of a minor expert on Medicare and often have advised friends who are approaching 65 about their best options.  Until a man I know approached me and asked for my advice.  He added he was dually qualified for Medicare and Medicaid and he thought he probably qualified for food benefits, too.Huh?  I had no idea what he was talking about and had to admit to him I was useless in this case.Today I advised him to find a credit union he could join that also is a customer of Starlight, a fintech with a focus on unlocking some $100 billion in government benefits that are potentially available to credit unions.Starlight was on the show a year ago. It's on again today because it comes with big news: it's now a CUSO and has won funding from One Washington Financial, a CUSO that is wholly owned by Washington State Employees Credit Union, the same credit union that  birthed Q Cash.Scott Daukas, a principal at One Washington Financial is on the show to talk about the CUSO and, specifically, why it funded Starlight. He also briefly talks about Silvur, a portfolio company that also has been on the show.  And Starlight CEO Shreenath Regunathan s back to talk about how it is helping automate the often bewildering process of applying for government benefits - a process made all the more bewildering by massive changes that several big programs (such as SNAP, the food stamps program) are undergoing as the year ends.Starlight is deployed at over a dozen credit unions and it is busy signing up more credit unions because frankly the need is there.Along the way, there's a discussion about Prizeout, an innovative ad tech company that also has been a podcast guest.  In another episode a Prizeout consumer user sings its praises.  There's rich content in this episode. Listen up.

Newt talks with Brian Blase, president of Paragon Health Institute and former special assistant to the President for Economic Policy at the White House's National Economic Council. Their discussion centers on the rising cost of healthcare in the United States, a pressing issue that Blase recently addressed before the Senate Finance Committee. Blase explains the mission of the Paragon Health Institute, which he founded to fill a void in the free market community by analyzing government healthcare programs and developing policy solutions that expand choice and market competition. Their conversation highlights significant issues such as fraud and corruption in government healthcare programs, with examples of the massive fraud in Minnesota and improper enrollments in Obamacare. Blase emphasizes the need for reform in Medicare payment policies and the importance of consumer control over healthcare financing to reduce costs. They conclude their discussion with a call for transparency in healthcare pricing.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 12-18-2025: Dr. Dawn opens by examining how market competition is actually working in the weight loss drug sector. Novo Nordisk's Ozempic and Wegovy compete against Eli Lilly's Monjaro and ZepBound, with prices dropping nearly 50% as companies launch direct-to-consumer websites. The main barriers remain needles and refrigeration, driving development of oral versions. Novo's Wegovy pill awaits FDA approval for early 2026 launch at $150 monthly. Next-generation drugs show remarkable results: Eli's retatrutide causes 24% weight loss in 48 weeks, while Novo's Cagrisema combines semaglutide with amylin to reduce muscle loss. Pfizer paid $10 billion for Metsera's once-monthly drug despite significant side effects. A quick fiber tip suggests adding plain psyllium to morning coffee for cardiovascular and microbiome benefits. Start with half a teaspoon and work up to two teaspoons (10 grams) over several weeks to avoid gas. The prebiotic fiber improves glucose tolerance and may reduce cancer risk. UC San Diego scientists discovered why cancers mutate so rapidly despite being eukaryotic cells with protected chromosomes. The answer is chromothripsis, a catastrophic event where the enzyme N4BP2 literally explodes chromosomes into fragments. These reassemble incorrectly, generating dozens to hundreds of mutations simultaneously and creating circular DNA fragments carrying cancer-promoting genes. One in four cancers show evidence of this mechanism, with all osteosarcomas and many brain cancers displaying it. This explains why the most aggressive cancers resist treatment. Research from 2013 shows any glucocorticoid use significantly increases venous thromboembolism risk, with threefold increases during the first month of use. The risk applies to new and recurrent clots, affecting both oral and inhaled steroids, though IV poses highest risk and topical the lowest. Joint injections fall somewhere between inhaled and oral. Anyone with prior blood clots should avoid steroids except for life-threatening situations like severe asthma attacks requiring ventilation. A meta-analysis of 20 randomized controlled trials shows creatine supplementation helps older adults (48-84) maintain muscle mass when combined with weight training two to three times weekly. The supplement provides no benefit without exercise. Recommended dosing starts at 2 grams and works up to 5 grams daily. Vegans benefit most since they consume little meat or fish. Important caveat: creatine throws off standard kidney function tests (creatinine), so users should request cystatin C testing instead for accurate renal health assessment. A new JAMA study suggesting risk-based mammogram screening is fatally flawed. First, researchers offered chemopreventative drugs like tamoxifen only to the high-risk group, contaminating the study design. Second, the demographics skewed heavily toward white college-educated women, missing the reality that Black women face twice the risk of aggressive breast cancer with 40% higher mortality. Third, wild-type humans failed to follow instructions—low-risk women continued getting annual mammograms anyway while high-risk women skipped recommended extra screenings. The conclusion of "non-inferior" outcomes is meaningless given poor adherence. Stick with annual mammograms, and consider alternating with MRIs for high-risk women. The EAT-Lancet report condemns red meat based purely on observational data showing correlations with heart disease, cancer, and mortality. But people who eat lots of red meat differ dramatically from low consumers: they weigh more, smoke more, exercise less, and eat less fiber. Studies can't control for sleep quality, depression, or screen time. Notably, heavy meat eaters also die more in accidents, suggesting a risk-taking lifestyle phenotype. The inflammatory marker TMAO is higher in meat eaters, but starch is also pro-inflammatory. Eating red meat instead of instant ramen might improve health. A balanced diet with limited amounts beats epidemiology-based blanket statements. Dr. Dawn grades Dr. Oz's performance as CMS administrator. Starting at minus one for zero relevant experience, he earns plus two for promoting diet, exercise, and gut health on his show. He studied intensively after nomination, calling all four previous CMS directors repeatedly and surrounding himself with experienced staff (plus one). He finalized Medicare rules favoring prevention over surgery and earned bipartisan praise as "a real scientist, not radical" (plus one). He divested healthcare holdings but kept some blind trust interests (minus 0.5). He's developing a CMS app and partnering with Google on a digital health ecosystem (plus one), but supports ending ACA subsidies that will raise premiums for millions (minus one). He correctly promoted COVID vaccines and contradicted Trump's Tylenol-autism claims (plus one). Final score: 3.5 out of 5 possible points, the only positive score for any Trump health administrator.

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!

Representative Ro Khanna (D-CA) joins Chris Cuomo to lay out what he believes is the strongest path forward for Democrats—one that centers affordability, health care, wages, and jobs instead of endless outrage over Donald Trump. Khanna explains why letting Affordable Care Act subsidies expire would hurt millions of Americans, how Medicare for All could reduce costs by cutting middlemen and negotiating prices, and why Democrats lose credibility when they campaign against Trump without offering a substantive economic alternative. Cuomo and Khanna debate whether outrage-driven politics actually wins elections, the influence of corporate money and PACs, the decline of unions, and why Democrats risk becoming defined solely in opposition to Trump. They also tackle foreign policy flashpoints—from Venezuela to Gaza—faith and extremism, and what Khanna calls a “new economic patriotism” aimed at restoring the American Dream before the 2026 midterms.
