What happens when states gain the power to decide which healthcare providers Medicaid recipients can access? In this episode, host Jen Taylor-Skinner is joined by Elizabeth Taylor, Executive Director of the National Health Law Program, to break down the high-stakes Supreme Court case Medina v. South Atlantic. At its core, the case challenges whether individuals have the right to choose their own healthcare provider under Medicaid—a right that could be stripped away, with profound implications for reproductive health, gender-affirming care, and essential services for low-income, disabled, and LGBTQIA+ communities. Together, they explore how this case—and others like Health and Hospital Corp. v. Talevski—could reshape the legal tools individuals have to protect their healthcare rights, especially as conservative state leaders target clinics like Planned Parenthood. Elizabeth Taylor offers critical insight into the legal landscape, the political motivations behind these efforts, and why protecting Medicaid access is more urgent than ever. This episode is a must-listen for anyone concerned about reproductive justice, healthcare equity, and the future of Medicaid.

Diabetes Dialogue: Therapeutics, Technology, & Real-World Perspectives
Video Version Only on HCPLive! In this episode of Diabetes Dialogue, hosts Diana Isaacs, PharmD, an endocrine clinical pharmacist, director of Education and Training in Diabetes Technology, and codirector of Endocrine Disorders in Pregnancy at the Cleveland Clinic, and Natalie Bellini, DNP, program director of Diabetes Technology at University Hospitals Diabetes and Metabolic Care Center, discuss the top-line results from the ACHIEVE-1 trial evaluating orforglipron—an investigational, once-daily oral glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) developed by Eli Lilly—for adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D) inadequately controlled by diet and exercise. Isaacs and Bellini emphasized the clinical significance of orforglipron's Phase 3 data in the ACHIEVE-1 trial, which demonstrated substantial reductions in A1c (1.3–1.6%) from a baseline of 8.0% and notable weight loss averaging 16 pounds (7.9%) at the highest dose over 40 weeks. Impressively, more than 65% of participants achieved an A1c below 6.5%, meeting the American Diabetes Association (ADA)'s target for diabetes control. The hosts highlighted the convenience advantage of orforglipron compared to oral semaglutide, which has strict dosing requirements. Oral orforglipron can be taken without food or water restrictions, potentially increasing adherence and reducing treatment burden. They also noted the drug's favorable safety profile, with gastrointestinal side effects similar in type and incidence to existing GLP-1 RAs, and no hepatic safety signals observed in the trial. Beyond glycemic control, Isaacs and Bellini discussed the broader implications for obesity treatment, pointing to the drug's potential utility in weight management, pending regulatory submission. They explored the possibility of using injectable GLP-1 RAs for initial weight loss followed by oral maintenance with orforglipron—potentially lowering costs and improving access. The conversation touched on the upcoming ACHIEVE trial series, which will explore orforglipron in head-to-head comparisons with other agents, its use in insulin-treated T2D, and future indications including cardiovascular risk and kidney disease. While optimistic, the hosts stressed the need for cardiovascular outcomes data to confirm orforglipron's safety and potential benefits in this domain. If confirmed, they suggested orforglipron could become a cornerstone oral therapy for T2D and obesity. Relevant disclosures for Isaacs include Eli Lilly and Company, Novo Nordisk, Sanofi, Abbott Diabetes Care, Dexcom, Medtronic, and others. Relevant disclosures for Bellini include Abbott Diabetes Care, MannKind, Provention Bio, and others.

The Finance Minister has been getting updates about the financial fallout from the latest batch of Trump tariffs. New Zealand goods have been hit with a 10 percent tariff, as part of President Trump's trade plan. Nicola Willis warns these changes will come with 'profound' economic implications for New Zealand. "We will finalise our economic forecasts, which feed into the Budget - in the next few days, I expect to be briefed on them soon. Of course, the major effect is the estimate that global growth is going to be lower than had been predicted." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

An economist says Donald Trump's 'liberation day' could better be described as 'watch your wallet day'. The US President will be announcing his next round of tariffs in about half an hour. Dartmouth College Economics Professor Douglas Irwin say tariffs could be across the board or set specifically to each country. He told Mike Hosking a blanket option would create a lot of economic pain. Irwin says that includes fruit, clothes, shoes, and other manufactured goods.

Trump tariffs are looming over Australia. Washington is expected to announce new tariffs on its trading partners today, and opinions are divided on whether Australia will get pinged. Australian Correspondent Steve Price told Mike Hosking that they shouldn't get hit too badly as there's currently a $17.9 billion trade surplus with the United States. He says there could be a couple of flow on effects that could impact Australia, such as China flooding their market with cheaper products, or buying less of their minerals as they won't selling as much to the US.

How will President Donald Trump's sweeping tariffs impact the average Americans? Worldwide tariffs on steel and aluminum are already in place. Plus, reciprocal tariffs on all imports are set to take effect in less than two weeks. These will have short and long term effects on American consumers, but those effects won't take place in a vacuum. Trump's domestic oil production plan, his deregulation efforts, and potential taxes cuts also need to be considered to estimate the full impact of the 47th president's policies. Here to examine that impact is Vance Ginn, former Chief Economist at the Office of Management and Budget; and Michael Busler, Professor of Finance, Stockton University.Examining the Potential Impact of President Trump's TariffsTrump Begins Process to Shutter Education Dept.President Trump, Russian President Putin Agree to Limited Ceasefire
Check out The Link.AI Consulting at https://agentic.constructionConnect with Hugh on LinkedinHere's a shorter briefing based on the same informationExecutive Summary:Anthropic's Model Context Protocol (MCP), announced in late November 2024, is an open protocol designed to standardize how AI systems interact with external data sources and tools. It aims to overcome the current fragmented landscape of AI integration, where bespoke solutions are often required for each new connection. MCP establishes a universal framework for communication, simplifying development, enhancing AI agent effectiveness through improved context and tool access, and fostering a vibrant ecosystem of AI capabilities. By utilizing a client-server architecture and defining key primitives for data and action exchange, MCP offers a more dynamic and context-aware approach compared to traditional REST APIs. The emergence of MCP registries and marketplaces like smithery.ai further signifies its potential to transform the future of AI by enabling more interconnected, adaptable, and powerful AI systems.Key Themes and Important Ideas/Facts:1. Addressing the Challenges of AI Integration:The current method of integrating AI models with external resources is often complex and requires custom solutions for each connection. "When building AI applications today, each project frequently requires unique, bespoke solutions for how AI processes are constructed and how they connect with necessary data resources." (Introduction)This leads to significant development and maintenance burdens.MCP aims to solve this by providing a universal, open standard for connecting AI systems with data sources and tools. "MCP offers a unified solution to this problem by providing a universal, open standard for connecting AI systems with data sources, effectively replacing these fragmented integrations with a single, consistent protocol." (Introduction)The motivation is to overcome the limitations of isolated AI models "trapped behind information silos and legacy systems." (Introduction, citing source 2)MCP addresses the "MxN problem" by transforming it into an "N plus M setup," where each model and tool only needs to conform to the standard once. "Without a standardized protocol, this results in a complex web of M multiplied by N individual integrations... MCP's approach transforms this into a much simpler N plus M setup, where each tool and each model only needs to conform to the MCP standard once..." (Introduction, citing source 3)By open-sourcing MCP, Anthropic intends to foster collaboration and a shared ecosystem.2. Core Concepts of MCP:Client-Server Architecture: MCP is built on this established pattern. "At its core, the Model Context Protocol (MCP) is built upon a client-server architecture, a well-established design pattern in computing, to facilitate the connection between AI models and external resources." (Core Concepts)Host: The AI-powered application or agent environment the user interacts with (e.g., Claude desktop app, IDE plugin). "The Host is the AI-powered application or agent environment that the end-user directly interacts with." (Core Concepts) It can connect to multiple MCP servers and manages client permissions.Client: An intermediary within the Host that manages the connection to a single MCP server, maintaining a one-to-one link. "The Client acts as an intermediary within the Host, responsible for managing the connection to a single MCP server." (Core Concepts) It handles communication lifecycle and maintains stateful sessions.Server: An external program that implements MCP and provides capabilities (tools, data, prompts) for a specific domain (e.g., databases, cloud services). "The Server is a program, typically external to the AI model itself, that implements the MCP standard and provides a specific set of capabilities." (Core Concepts) Anthropic and the community have released servers for Google Drive, Slack, GitHub, Postgres, SQLite, and web browsing.This architecture is likened to a "USB port" for AI. "This client-server architecture, often likened to a 'USB port' for AI applications, provides a standardized way for AI assistants to 'plug into' any data source or service without requiring custom code for each connection." (Core Concepts, citing source 3)3. MCP vs. REST APIs for AI Agents:Limitations of REST APIs: Require significant manual effort, lack standardized context management, often stateless, static API definitions. "Integrating AI agents with external services via REST APIs often requires significant manual effort and lacks a standardized way to manage the evolving context of agent interactions." (MCP vs. REST APIs for AI Agents)Advantages of MCP:Standardized Communication: Based on JSON-RPC, simplifying integration.Dynamic Tool Discovery: AI can query servers to understand available tools. "AI models equipped with an MCP client can query connected servers to understand the tools and resources they offer." (MCP vs. REST APIs for AI Agents)Two-Way Real-Time Interaction: Supports persistent connections for context updates.Superior Approach Scenarios: Complex workflows with multiple tools, real-time data integration, frequently changing toolsets, intelligent assistants, automated coding tools, dynamic data analytics.4. Enhancing AI Agent Effectiveness:Improved Contextual Awareness and Management: MCP allows agents to access and retain relevant context from multiple sources, overcoming context window limitations. "One of the most significant ways in which the Model Context Protocol enhances the effectiveness of AI agents is by enabling improved contextual awareness and management." (Enhancing AI Agent Effectiveness)The ability to connect to multiple servers simultaneously supports complex workflows.The "Resources" primitive provides just-in-time, modular context, leading to more efficient processing and accurate responses.Facilitating Seamless Integration: MCP eliminates the need for custom code for each new data source or tool. "By providing a standardized interface, MCP eliminates the need for developers to write custom code for each new data source or tool that an AI agent needs to interact with."

Future Implications and the Evolving AI Ecosystem:Fostering Interoperability and Standardization: MCP has the potential to become a universal standard for AI integration. "By establishing a universal standard for AI integration, MCP could become the equivalent of HTTP for the web or USB-C for device connectivity in the AI world." (Future Implications and the Evolving AI Ecosystem)Could decouple AI model choice from underlying integrations.Potential Impact on AI R&D and Deployment: May shift focus towards effective utilization of external information over solely increasing model size. Could lead to more modular AI system designs.Addressing Potential Challenges: Requires buy-in from AI providers and tool developers. Security is paramount. Ensuring user trust and human oversight are crucial. "Security is another paramount concern. Allowing AI agents to access and interact with external systems, especially sensitive enterprise data, necessitates robust security measures to prevent unauthorized access or data leaks." (Future Implications and the Evolving AI Ecosystem)Conclusion:MCP offers a promising path towards a more interconnected, context-aware, and effective AI ecosystem. Its standardized framework addresses critical integration challenges, enhances AI agent capabilities, and provides new opportunities for tool providers and the broader AI community. While adoption challenges exist, the potential transformative impact of MCP on the future of AI is significant.
