Overcoming Misconceptions About Geriatrics: Dr. Julia Hiner, Geriatric Medicine Fellowship Program Director at McGovern Medical School

"Older adults have this special clarity about who they are and what they want, which is incredibly inspiring," says Dr. Julia Hiner, explaining, in part, why she loves her work as a geriatrician in Houston, Texas. She also enjoys the challenge of the medical complexity these patients present and the opportunity it creates to see the patient as a whole person. In fact, as you'll hear in this upbeat conversation with Raise the Line host Lindsey Smith, there's almost nothing about geriatrics that Dr. Hiner does not enjoy, which explains her passion for teaching the subject at McGovern Medical School at the University of Texas Health Science Center in Houston and trying to convince more students to pursue it as their specialty.  The need is great, given that there are only 8,000 geriatricians in the US despite a rapidly growing senior population. Tune in to learn why Dr. Hiner thinks clinicians avoid the field and the steps that can be taken to improve the situation, including requiring courses in geriatrics. You'll also learn about the importance of capacity assessments, the troubling, and under-reported, problem of elder mistreatment, ageism among health professionals and much more in this super informative episode. Mentioned in this episode:University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston McGovern Medical School  If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Risa Arin doesn't just talk about health literacy. She built the damn platform. As founder and CEO of XpertPatient.com (yes, expert with no E), Risa's taking a wrecking ball to how cancer education is delivered. A Cornell alum, cancer caregiver, and ex-agency insider who once sold Doritos to teens, she now applies that same marketing muscle to helping patients actually understand the garbage fire that is our healthcare system. We talk about why she left the “complacent social safety” of agency life, how her mom unknowingly used her own site during treatment, what it's like to pitch cancer education after someone pitches warm cookies, and why healthcare should come with a map, a translator, and a refund policy. Risa brings data, chutzpah, and Murphy Brown energy to the conversation—and you'll leave smarter, angrier, and maybe even a little more hopeful.RELATED LINKS• XpertPatient.com• Risa Arin on LinkedIn• XpertPatient & Antidote Partnership• XpertPatient Featured on KTLA• 2024 Health Award BioFEEDBACKLike this episode?

Dr. Jamie Wells is back—and this time, she brought a book. We cover everything from biomedical design screwups to the glorified billing software known as the EHR. Jamie's new book, A Clinical Lens on Pediatric Engineering, is a masterclass in what happens when you stop treating kids like small, drunk adults and start designing medicine around actual human factors. We talk about AI in pediatric radiology, why drug repurposing might save lives faster than biotech IPOs, and the absurdity of thinking one-size-fits-all in healthcare still works.Jamie's a former physician, a health policy disruptor, a bioethicist, an MIT director, and a recovering adjunct professor. She's also a unicorn. We dig into the wonk, throw shade at bad design, and channel our inner Lisa Simpsons. This one's for anyone who ever wondered why kids' hospitals feel like hell and why “make it taste like bubblegum” might be the most important clinical innovation of all time. You'll laugh, you'll learn, and you might get angry enough to fix something.RELATED LINKSJamie Wells on LinkedInBook: A Clinical Lens on Pediatric Engineering (Amazon)Book on SpringerDrexel BioMed ProfileGlobal Blockchain Business CouncilJamie's HuffPost ArticlesFEEDBACKLike this episode?

After months of litigation in a federal district court, a key decision recently came out in the legal fight over 340B drug rebates. 340B Health Vice President of Legal and Policy Amanda Nagrotsky updates us on the development.Court deals a blow to drugmakersD.C. district court judge Dabney Friedrich ruled on May 15 that manufacturers cannot unilaterally implement rebate models for 340B, agreeing with the Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA) that the agency effectively has preapproval authority over rebates. In her decision, the judge cited early results from a 340B Health survey finding that shifting 340B to a rebate model would divert significant hospital resources from patient care. Drugmakers have already appealed the ruling.Some bright spots for drugmakers in this decisionAlthough the decision largely went against pharmaceutical companies, the judge ruled that the 340B statute does not categorically prohibit rebates, leaving the door open for government approvals of rebates. The judge also agreed with drugmakers' assertions that HRSA should consider how rebate models could improve 340B compliance and how requiring the sharing of data through rebates could aid in drug company audits of covered entities.Will HRSA stop all rebates from proceeding?Despite this decision, the legal fight over rebates isn't over yet. The judge found that, for three of the manufacturers in these cases, HRSA has yet to issue final decisions with respect to their proposed rebate models. In the case of Sanofi, the judge found that HRSA failed to adequately explain the legal basis for rejecting the drugmaker's rebate model, and she directed the agency to reconsider its decision and explain whether and how it would violate the 340B statute. HRSA sent rebate guidance to the White House for approval earlier this month, though as of recording this episode it was not known what that guidance would say.ResourcesRead Our Analysis of the First Federal Court Decision on Rebates340B Health Continues Court Fight Against Rebates

"It was pretty apparent to me that something was going on with him," says Kristi Levine, describing the realization that, based on her experience as a Montessori teacher, her infant son, Trey, was missing developmental milestones. Unfortunately, Kristi's hunch turned out to be correct and Trey was later diagnosed with a rare genetic mutation called CACNA1A which is impacting his motor skills, balance, coordination and speech. Kristi and her husband, Eric, join host Michael Carrese on this installment in our Year of the Zebraseries to help us understand the disorder and its implications for Trey and their family, which includes Trey's older sister Stella.  “There's a lot of guilt involved in being a parent of a child who has a disability because you never feel like you're doing enough,” shares Eric, even though they both work full time and have becoming experts at juggling work, caregiving, advocating, and volunteering with the CACNA1A Foundation. In this candid interview, Eric and Kristi discuss the challenges of parenting a child with complex medical needs, the importance of community support, the ongoing search for treatment options, and share some advice for clinicians caring for patients and families living with rare disorders. “We just want medical professionals to respect and understand what we're dealing with on a day-to-day basis and to see our kids holistically, and not just try to fix the problem medically. Understand that for us, the biggest thing that we want for our kids is just their quality of life.”Mentioned in this episode:CACNA1A Foundation If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Peter Ordentlich, Chief Scientific Officer and Founder at Syndax Pharmaceuticals, a clinical oncology company, is focused on developing precision medicine approaches to treat cancer and chronic graft-versus-host disease. The menin protein plays a critical role in driving certain types of blood cancers, and the Synex therapy is a menin inhibitor that can disrupt this cancer-driving pathway. The platform is also developing an antibody addressing the unmet needs in cGVHD to reduce the disease-driving macrophages. Peter explains, "Syndax is a clinical oncology company, which means we're focused primarily on cancer, and we're primarily doing clinical development. We started the company really looking at resistance pathways to developing cancer, and we've been focused on two main areas. One in the indication space of leukemia, which are certain types of blood cancers, and that's with a program we have around the small molecule drug called revumenib. We are also focused in another area of diseases called chronic graft-versus-host disease. These are diseases that happen post-stem cell transplant, and there we're developing an antibody called axatilimab. And so those two programs are really what we've been focusing on for the last five or six years and have led to each of those drugs." "So menin is a very interesting protein, and basically what this is, it's called a scaffold protein. And you can imagine a scaffold, just something you build things upon. And so menin interacts with DNA through a variety of other factors, and you build on top of this a complex of other proteins that can turn genes on and off. And in the case of certain types of leukemias, the mutation that creates certain other cancer-causing proteins binds to menin. That's what drives certain genes that drive leukemia to always be turned on. And so what we've tried to do and others have tried to do is disrupt that interaction and essentially cause the scaffold to fall apart. And when that falls apart, you can no longer keep those genes on that drive leukemia, and instead, you have genes that essentially cause the cell to stop growing."  #SyndaxPharma #AcuteLeukemia #cGHVD #Oncology #PrecisionMedicine #Menin #MeninInhibitors syndax.com Listen to the podcast here

Kinsella on Liberty Podcast: Episode 467. I was asked one Juani (@witheredsummer), an Argentinian Voluntarist, on Twitter and then later via email, to review his draft article "Ideas Are Free: A Case Against Intellectual Property" (text below) (I note that perhaps ironically, this title is almost identical to one of my own previous publications/speeches, Ideas are Free: The Case Against Intellectual Property: or, How Libertarians Went Wrong). I told him it was too long for me to fisk, got Grok to analyze it (see below), and told him to read up on some of my work and review the analysis, so that we could have a more productive conversation about it, and which I could also at least record for my podcast. This is our discussion. In the end, he didn't really have many questions and I think he just wanted to vent about how bad IP is and express frustration at out outrageous and harmful it is. And suggest some ways to get through to people and propose reforms. Things I already knew and have been writing about for 30 years. He basically identifies many problems with and absurdities with IP law ... which he's right about and which I've mentioned ... and comes up with some proposals for IP reform that would reduce its harm. Again, which he's right about and which I and others have also proposed, but also which are unlikely to be adopted by those infested with the IP mind-virus. Not really sure what the point of this was, but here it is FWIW. https://youtu.be/AS-8mFZGfnI GROK SHOWNOTES: [0:00-15:00] In this episode of the Stephan Kinsella podcast (KOL467), host Stephan Kinsella engages with Juani from Argentina to discuss intellectual property (IP) and its implications, particularly in the context of artificial intelligence (AI). Juani, a programmer and self-described libertarian, shares his consequentialist critique of IP, influenced by Kinsella's work and his own essay, "Ideas for Free: A Case Against Intellectual Property." The conversation begins with Juani outlining his concerns about IP's practical harms, such as its impact on innovation and culture, and transitions into a discussion about AI. They explore how AI's reliance on vast datasets, often containing copyrighted material, raises legal questions about copying, authorship, and derivative works. Kinsella highlights the tension between copyright law and AI development, noting that current laws could stifle AI's potential by limiting data access or imposing costly licensing requirements. [15:01-1:37:33] The discussion deepens into specific examples of IP's negative effects, including cultural erasure through Disney's sanitized retellings of historical figures like Pocahontas and Mulan, and the economic burdens of pharmaceutical patents, which restrict access to life-saving drugs in poorer nations. Juani argues that IP acts as a form of censorship and reinforces wealth disparities, citing cases like patent trolling and the high cost of educational materials in developing countries. Kinsella agrees, emphasizing that IP distorts markets and innovation, and suggests that copyright's harm to AI development may rival its threat to internet freedom. Toward the end, Juani proposes a reform to replace IP exclusivity with a decaying royalty system, which Kinsella views skeptically, arguing that entrenched IP proponents will resist any reduction in rights. The episode concludes with reflections on piracy, the success of platforms like Steam, and the cultural shift toward viewing copying as less harmful, signaling a potential change in public perception of IP.   Youtube Transcript and detailed Grok shownotes below.

He is a professor at McMaster University and a vocal critic of pharmaceutical industry practices.Discussion Points:SSRIs cause near-immediate sensory effects, like genital numbing, in most people.Post-SSRI sexual dysfunction (PSSD) can persist for years or decades after stopping the drug, affecting many long-term users.Healy argues RCTs prioritize averages over individual experiences, often missing serious side effects like suicidality.Pharmaceutical companies ghostwrite studies and manipulate data, with journals like the New England Journal of Medicine publishing misleading articles.Serotonin theory of depression lacks evidence.Industry tactics include dismissing patient reports as anecdotes and using high doses in trials to mask weak efficacy.SSRIs can increase suicide risk, not just during initiation but also when adjusting doses or withdrawing, as seen in cases like the Aurora movie theater shooting.Regulatory bodies like the FDA often fail to investigate adverse effects due to bureaucratic processes and lack of follow-up.Healy emphasizes doctors' failure to prioritize patient observations, driven by industry-influenced standards of care.Related episode:M&M 88: Depression, Serotonin, SSRIs, Psychiatry & Social Media | Joanna Moncrieff*Not medical advice.Support the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

The Secret Teachings

Much like the popularity of methylene blue, the building popularity of nicotine pouches has produced a sort of health sub-culture within the larger context of a generally unhealthy population. Whereas methylene blue is relatively new to the public, nicotine has been around, and much more popular, for a lot longer. Sure, methylene blue has certain medical benefits, namely as a supplement for those with methemoglobinemia, though too much of the substance can cause the same condition. Though it goes with anything - quantity, quality, long term use, additional additives, and health context matter. The same goes for nicotine pouches. Nicotine, especially the non-smoked kind, can benefit cognition, memory, and concentration to a small degree, though delivery mechanisms and quality matter greatly.  Could it be that these recent health potions are nothing more than a commodifying and monetizing not only of health but of the healthcare revolution?The bottom line is this: Big Tobacco lied, obfuscated and killed for decades. By the 1980s and 1990s, studies, high profile cases, and lawsuits put some final nails in their coffin. It was around this time that these companies began to diversify heavily. Phillip Morris purchased General Foods, Kraft, and Miller Brewing in the 80s, and a little later Nabisco in 2000. R.J. Reynolds had purchased the same company in the 80s. They also had control of Pacific Hawaiian products since the 60s. These acquisitions allowed tobacco companies to apply cigarette marketing tactics, like targeting children and minorities, and to develop "hyper-palatable" foods high in fat, sugar, and sodium, influencing the U.S. food system for decades.Vaping was then introduced in the early 2000s and within a few years Big Tobacco was diversifying again. In 2014 MarkTen e-cigarettes were introduced by Altria (Phillip Morris) and Vuse was introduced by R.J. Reynolds (BAT). Soon after Altria introduced ON!, British American Tobacco (R.J. Reynolds) launched VELO, and Phillip Morris acquired ZYN. When vaping began to develop a bad reputation for some, the industry convinced many that cigarettes were the safer choice, while others kept vaping for the same reason.Although these companies had marketed nicotine gum and patches for decades, the market grew rapidly as people tried to stop smoking in general. But what about the market for non-smokers? Well, that's where ON!, ZYN, and VELO come in. Instead of chewing tobacco, cigarettes, patches or gum, pouches were for all non-smokers and promoted as having health benefits. By the time these pouches were largely under the control of Big Tobacco there began a campaign of promotion on social media, primarily TikTok, for flavored nicotine pouches - as with flavored cigarettes and vapes. Now they have been picked up by conservatives and those leaning in the direction of MAHA. It all makes sense, too, when considering what the HHS and NIH have done so far under RFK Jr. Although certain vaccines are longer advised for healthy kids and pregnant women, the HHS and NIH are investing millions, maybe billions, in “universal influenza and coronavirus vaccines.” With Project Stargate there is further investment in personalized medicine and vaccines, followed up in May, 2025, with three other interesting developments. May 5 saw the White House strip regulations for domestic pharmaceutical manufacturing and May 12 saw the White House authorize that “the Secretary of Health and Human Services (Secretary) shall facilitate direct-to-consumer purchasing programs for pharmaceutical manufacturers that sell their products to American patients at the most-favored-nation price." On May 19 the HHS posted about RFK Jr meeting with technocrats “creating wearable devices, AI tools, and personalized apps that empower Americans to take control of their health.” What all of this really does is allow for the mass collection of personal health data so that even more accurate health models can be created in order to personalized marketing and products that can be sold directly to the public with no middle party, while also empowering insurance companies to take advantage of knowing who can be charged more for private decisions. This isn't revolution, it's commodification and monetization. And at the very least, anyone advocating for methylene blue, itself a “fetotoxic agent,” or nicotine pouches without first examining all the free ways we can be healthier, or without noting that the first is a dye and the second is sold by a famously corrupt and evil industry, is either untrustworthy, ignorant, or a sell out. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

We have a special guest on today's episode whose voice will be familiar to regular listeners. Last year at this time, Dr. Raven Baxter occupied the Raise the Line host chair for a special ten-part series we produced in collaboration with the Cohen Center for Recovery from Complex Chronic Illness (CoRe) at Mount Sinai in New York City, where she serves as the Director of Science Communication. The series explored the latest understandings of post-acute infection syndromes -- such as Chronic Lyme and Long COVID -- with an array of experts from the Center and other researchers and providers. In this episode, we check-in with Dr. Baxter to get an update on the work of the Cohen Center, especially with regard to its mission to educate providers. “We're building programs so that clinicians can earn credit for learning about chronic illnesses that are infection associated, and we've also developed a 200-page provider manual. I really think that we will be able to shift the narrative that currently exists,” Dr. Baxter tells host Michael Carrese. That narrative includes lingering skepticism among providers of some infection-associated illnesses, which Dr. Baxter witnessed herself as a Long COVID patient, an experience that has added meaningful perspective to her work. Dr. Baxter is also working on her own time to advance knowledge and combat misinformation through a robust social media presence as “The Science Maven” and helps other scientists and clinicians to do the same. "If we're not there to fill in that void, other people will fill it for us and the narrative may not be consistent with the truth or facts." This is a great opportunity to learn about the art and science of communications that can reach clinicians and patients alike.Mentioned in this episode:Cohen Center for Recovery from Complex Chronic IllnessThe Science Maven If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Despite this scandal, pharma R&D spending increased in 2024, climbing 1.5% across the global pharmaceutical sector. The acquisition of SiteOne by Lilly follows Vertex into the non-opioid pain space, providing diversification for Lilly, which has been focusing on obesity and diabetes treatments. Meanwhile, AbbVie's Allergan cuts over 200 staff after a botched marketing campaign, and Inflarx axes a rare skin disease study due to disappointing late-stage data.AGC Biologics will be at Bio International in Boston to showcase their global capabilities in drug production. Vaccine overhaul, rocket grounding, and drug price transparency are also highlighted in the latest news. Biogen's strategy for Zurzuvae shifts as obstetricians/gynecologists rise to the front lines. Drug price transparency in the US is discussed as being easier said than done. Additionally, Rocket's gene therapy for Danon disease is on hold after a patient death, and four biotechs are facing uncertainty in the COVID-19 vaccine landscape.Global pharmaceutical companies are increasing their research and development spending despite political and economic challenges. Biogen is shifting its strategy for the drug Zurzuvae as obstetricians and gynecologists become more involved. Drug price transparency in the US is still a challenge, despite efforts to increase transparency.

More than a third of patients released from the hospital never fill their discharge prescriptions, but “meds-to-beds” programs can help improve that statistic. That is the approach Renown Health in Reno, Nev., took with the help of its 340B savings. Renown Vice President of Pharmacy Services Adam Porath joins us to describe how this meds-to-beds program improves patient care.Hospital readmissions down, patient convenience upRenown Health's 340B-funded program offers medication to patients who are being discharged from the hospital, either through bedside delivery, pneumatic tube, or a unique discharge lounge. The effort began as a pilot for Medicaid patients in 2016, and it demonstrated patients in the program were 25% less likely to be readmitted to the hospital once discharged. These health improvements plus the added convenience of medication access for patients convinced the system to expand the program.340B pricing to patients who cannot payPorath says Renown Health refers patients who cannot afford discharge medications to its social services team, which can authorize providing the drugs to those patients at the 340B-discounted rate. The team also will work with patients to see if they qualify for coverage such as Medicaid or other programs to reduce their out-of-pocket costs. Porath said Renown's meds-to-beds program provides drugs free of charge to about 30 patients per month.The keys to successRenown Health's meds-to-beds program has been a success, with more than 80% of eligible patients participating as of the end of 2024. The hospital expanded the services to all patients and started operating it 24/7 in April 2024. Porath said the keys to success include regular reporting to stakeholders and innovations to handle a large volume of patients discharging at once. Such changes allow all parties to stay in the loop with the development of the program and to celebrate successes as they occur.ResourcesRead Our Analysis of the First Federal Court Decision on RebatesSecond Federal Judge Allows 340B Health, Member Hospitals To Intervene in Rebate Lawsuit

Let's start with, What the Heck is a Hack? A hack is a small change or a shortcut designed to improve your life. Today's guest, Zora Benhamou, is the Queen of Midlife Health Hacks. She's also someone who, despite living a very active life, ended up with osteoarthritis.  She tried to avoid surgery for as long as possible. How was she able to do that? She used a few health hacks to get as much "life" out of her hips as possible. She tried PRP, physical therapy, and an anti-inflammatory diet. On the podcast, she discusses a few more hacks that you've got to hear about! Let's also talk about scars. Zora ended up with two hip replacements, and she tried a few different hacks to lessen her scarring. She used a copper peptide cream on one scar and a different product on the other. The copper peptide scar improved so much that she started using it on both wounds, and she's thrilled with the results! I just bought this copper peptide cream, Zora suggested using the link below (20% off!) https://www.vitaliskincare.com/discount/cancerwarrior?ref=cbkmpsij ____ Water Filtration: Boroux I've been looking for a water filter for two years. Okay, maybe I'm a little picky...but my research paid off. I've chosen the Boroux Filter system and am really happy with it. Are you curious about my criteria? Here's what I was looking for in a filter: Removal of heavy metals. The Boroux removes 99.36% of heavy metals. Pharmaceuticals are removed. Because people don't dispose of drugs properly, the drugs get into our water system. The Boroux removes 99.5% of pharmaceutical contaminants. Glyphosate removal (glyphosate is the active ingredient in Roundup and is a known carcinogen). A year ago, I was tested for glyphosate and was in the 95th percentile. I was shocked! Since I was already eating mainly organic, my doctor suggested getting a water filter. I had a challenging time finding one that would filter this chemical, and this was one of my main drivers for purchasing this filter. Boroux has a special offer for my community.

Kinsella on Liberty Podcast: Episode 465. GROK SHOWNOTES: [0:00–9:16] In this engaging episode of the Kinsella on Liberty podcast, Stephan Kinsella and Sheldon Richman tackle the contentious issue of pharmaceutical price controls under Trump's executive order, questioning their equivalence to traditional price controls that distort markets. Kinsella, drawing on his extensive critique of intellectual property (Patents and Pharmaceuticals, 2023; Patents, Pharma, Government: The Unholy Alliance, 2024), argues that patents create artificial monopolies, so price controls countering these are not standard interventions but responses to government-granted privileges. Richman highlights FDA-imposed costs, which patents partially offset, though Kinsella counters that these costs are overstated, citing lower drug prices abroad (Drug Reimportation, 2009). They endorse reimportation as a market-based solution, referencing Connor O'Keefe's analysis (Mises: How Trump Can Lower Drug Prices Without Price Controls, 2025), but criticize Trump's coercive tactics as resembling a protection racket (Trump's Worst Idea: Pharmaceuticals, 2025) (0:02–6:00). The discussion also critiques antitrust laws and secondary regulations, with Richman warning against Kevin Carson's approach of layering controls atop privileges (Kevin Carson on Confiscating Property from the Rich, 2016) (6:00–9:16). [9:16–1:13:35] The conversation shifts to a robust defense of the corporate form, addressing left-libertarian criticisms of limited liability and shareholder responsibility. Kinsella, aligning with Robert Hessen's contractual view and his own writings (Corporate Personhood, Limited Liability, and Double Taxation, 2011; Left-Libertarians, Corporations, Expropriating Stakeholders, 2008), argues that limited liability is not a privilege but a logical outcome of action-based responsibility, where shareholders are not liable unless causally responsible for torts (Van Dun on Freedom versus Property and Hostile Encirclement, 2009). Richman decries the pejorative use of “corporate” by figures like Roderick Long, rejecting claims that corporations inherently rely on state favoritism (Comment on Left-Libertarianism on Roderick Long's Sub-Ex Dep Post, 2009) (9:16–36:01). They explore thick libertarianism, agreeing that individualism connects to broader values but remains distinct, and critique Walter Block's evictionism on abortion, with Kinsella arguing fetuses are not trespassers due to maternal actions (Together Strong Debate with Walter Block, 2022) (36:01–1:13:35). A lighthearted discussion on pipe tobacco reflects their commitment to personal liberty, underscoring their broader libertarian principles (Wombatrons: Why I Am a Left-Libertarian, 2009). https://youtu.be/5YaTsoDH9Eg Grok detailed shownotes: Detailed Segment Summary for Show Notes Segment 1: Price Controls, Patents, and Reimportation (0:02–9:16) Description and Summary: Kinsella andMemphis-based Robert Hessen and Sheldon Richman discuss Trump's pharmaceutical price control executive order, questioning its implications. Kinsella, per his writings (Patents and Pharmaceuticals, 2023; Patents, Pharma, Government: The Unholy Alliance, 2024), argues that patents create monopoly prices, so price controls countering these aren't standard market distortions, as patents themselves are government-granted (IP vs. Antitrust, 2005). Richman notes FDA costs inflate drug prices, but Kinsella cites lower prices abroad to argue these costs are overstated (Drug Reimportation, 2009) (0:02–2:28). They advocate reimportation, citing Connor O'Keefe's market-based approach (Mises: How Trump Can Lower Drug Prices Without Price Controls, 2025), and criticize Trump's coercive tactics as a protection racket (Trump's Worst Idea: Pharmaceuticals, 2025) (2:28–6:00).

Big potential changes to how 340B operates plus heightened interest in both new protections and new restrictions for covered entities means there is much to keep track of in the 340B world. 340B Health CEO Maureen Testoni joins us to make sense of recent developments in the nation's courts and beyond.Rebates Get Their Day in Court340B Health, two member hospitals, and the government met drug companies in court in late April to challenge drugmaker attempts to replace 340B discounts with rebates. Testoni says the judge cited potentially devastating consequences to hospitals if rebates proceeded but also had probing questions for the government on how it is working to address drugmaker compliance concerns. The Dept. of Health and Human Services is set to release guidance by early June on the rebate issue, and the court's decision could come out soon.The White House Proposes 340B Big Oversight Shift A leaked copy of the Trump administration's latest budget proposal includes a plan to move the Office of Pharmacy Affairs (OPA) from the Health Resources & Services Administration to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. Testoni says the oversight shift is concerning because of a stark difference between the purpose of 340B and the operations of Medicare and Medicaid. CMS also imposed years of Medicare payment cuts to 340B hospitals that the U.S. Supreme Court eventually overturned.340B Protections, Mandates Take Center StageStates continue enacting laws to protect hospital access to 340B pricing, but they also are moving forward with reporting mandates and proposals to define how hospitals should use their savings. Testoni said reporting and use-of-savings mandates lead to misdirected views on the purpose of 340B, which goes far beyond direct patient care and cost assistance.

Oh Lord, help me to relax and push the pause button. Today's guest, Dr. Natalie Greenberg from The Center for New Medicine, explained how important it is for my health to hit the pause button. She also mentioned that when life gets overwhelming, It's crucial to pause and take a deep breath before reacting to any situation. Her words spoke to me. I tend to be an "over-responder." I might get irritated with someone before I have all the information about a situation. I might wake up upset because of a restless night, and my negative thoughts kick in, telling me how tough the day will be. How could my life be different if, instead of following my default of reacting, I took a minute, slowed down my breathing, pushed the pause button, gathered my thoughts, and then responded INSTEAD of reacting? Nervous System: This would help my body stay in a parasympathetic state (the rest and digest state), so my body wouldn't produce as many stress hormones. This means I'd have lower levels of inflammation and, honestly, better relationships! Immune System: Staying calm supports the immune system and allows your body to produce more "happy hormones," such as serotonin and melatonin, which means you fall asleep faster. The Joy Factor: thinking the best about people means I look for joy everywhere I go. When I see someone wearing a cute outfit or making me a fabulous matcha latte, I PRAISE THEM! The Bible says, to the best of my abilities, be at peace with people at all times. Pro tip: The scripture above says that, to the best of my abilities, sometimes it's impossible to be at peace with some people, and you know what? That's okay, too. The older I get, the more I realize my gift to people is letting them be who they are. ____ Water Filtration: Boroux  I've been looking for a water filter for two years. Okay, maybe I'm a little picky...but my research paid off. I've chosen the Boroux Filter system and am really happy with it. Are you curious about my criteria? Here's what I was looking for in a filter: Removal of heavy metals. The Boroux removes 99.36% of heavy metals. Pharmaceuticals are removed.

Honestly, I get food and supplement samples almost weekly! Last week, a San Diego company called Just Add Buoy emailed me to ask if I wanted to try their electrolyte formula. I said yes because I've been looking for an electrolyte formula (without tons of sugar, both fake and real and no dyes) for years. They sent me some samples, and I must tell you how much I love them. I'm trying the Hydration Drops, and they have 87 trace minerals, Ionic ocean electrolytes, and antioxidants. And, also important to me, NO SUGAR (FAKE OR REAL), NO ADDITIVES OR DYES.

Her journey began after a battle with Lyme disease and mold exposure, leading her to explore the world of natural healing. After receiving her undergraduate degree from Columbia University, Dr. Greenberg pursued naturopathic medicine at Bastyr University. There, she gained expertise in various areas, including pediatrics, gynecology, cardiology, autoimmune diseases, and mental health. Her training also encompassed holistic therapies like nutrition, IV therapy, homeopathy, and craniosacral therapy. During her final year of school, Dr. Greenberg worked closely with Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy, a renowned expert in cancer care. Together, they focused on providing adjunctive care for cancer patients, helping them navigate their healing journey. Driven by her personal experience with Lyme disease and mold, Dr. Greenberg is passionate about supporting patients with these conditions. She offers functional medicine approaches to address the root causes of their symptoms and promote overall well-being. Additionally, she is committed to supporting individuals with early-stage cancer, providing adjunctive care alongside conventional treatments.
