The rugged audit landscape has changed – and not for the better.Today, there are more potential pitfalls and traps to capture the unprepared and impact them with huge fines and possible incarceration. In fact, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has erected a legal fortress to protect their audit process. It's not the same old ballgame – it's a new one, with lots of new players.It's also why the producers of Monitor Mondays have invited senior healthcare analyst Frank Cohen to return to the broadcast to describe how you and your team can learn how to identify red flags in the process of fraud detection in order to avoid liability.The weekly broadcast will also include these instantly recognizable features:• Monday Rounds: Ronald Hirsch, MD, vice president of R1 RCM, will be making his Monday Rounds.• The RAC Report: Healthcare attorney Knicole Emanuel, partner at the law firm of Nelson Mullins, will report the latest news about auditors.• Risky Business: Healthcare attorney David Glaser, shareholder in the law offices of Fredrikson & Byron, will join the broadcast with his trademark segment.• Legislative Update: Adam Brenman, senior healthcare government affairs analyst for Zelis, will report on the news happening at the intersection of healthcare and congressional action.

Welcome to Model Citizens: AI Compliance for Banks and Fintech Lenders, a six-part miniseries from the Fintech Takes podcast in partnership with FairPlay. In this series, I'm joined by FairPlay's Kareem Saleh (Founder & CEO) to explore how banks and fintechs can build fair, compliant lending systems in an era of regulatory uncertainty. Episode 1 tackles one of the biggest questions in financial services today: what happens when the top federal watchdog (that was/is the CFPB) loses its bite? Joined by David Silberman (former CFPB Associate Director for Research, Markets, and Regulation) and Abby Hogan (SVP of Legal & Regulatory Affairs; ex-CFPB), we explore the vacuum left by a defanged CFPB and the new patchwork of enforcement that's emerging in its place. Highlights include: Why 50-state compliance is the most expensive form of “deregulation” you've never asked for How pragmatic state regulators are becoming the new R&D lab for rulemaking since fintech innovation won't wait What the five-year lookback really means for compliance teams (hint: regulatory whiplash isn't a free pass to hit cruise control) Whether the CFPB could be rebuilt (and how fast the talent might come roaring back) This episode sets the stage for what's ahead. Because the future of fair lending isn't just about algorithms; it's about who's making the rules, who's watching, who's suing, and who's redrawing the lines of fairness and risk.  In other words: it's about what kind of model citizens we want our institutions (and our systems) to be.

Coinsilium's Strategic Approach to Bitcoin Treasury Management Zak Mir talks to Malcolm Palle, Executive Chairman of Coinsilium, as the Aquis-quoted digital asset investor and venture builder provides an update on its Bitcoin treasury activity and that of its wholly owned Gibraltar subsidiary, Forza Gibraltar Limited, established to implement the company's dedicated Bitcoin-focused treasury operations.  Palle describes the progress of Coinsilium over the recent Bitcoin Treasury Strategy boom and how the company's experience in the digital space is a key differentiator. Raising Capital and Deploying Bitcoin Treasury Strategy Malcolm highlights that Coinsilium's Bitcoin treasury strategy is built on three essential pillars: raising capital, purchasing Bitcoin, and communicating these developments to shareholders and the market. The company's ability to acquire Bitcoin is directly tied to the funds raised, and despite the challenges presented by the UK market—particularly compared to the more mature US ecosystem—Coinsilium remains optimistic about its growth trajectory. Recently, Coinsilium completed a £5 million placing alongside a £510,000 wrap with Winterflood, which was significantly oversubscribed. This marks the company's largest fundraising effort to date, underscoring strong investor confidence. Importantly, all new funds raised are dedicated almost exclusively to Bitcoin purchases, with only minimal allocation for working capital and no other investments outside the core focus. In addition to the fresh capital raise, Coinsilium acquired approximately 12 more Bitcoin from its existing resources, bringing the total to 124 Bitcoin as of mid-2024. Malcolm anticipates that following the deployment of the new funds, the company's Bitcoin holdings could increase by nearly 50%, a substantial boost that will further cement Coinsilium's position as a leverage play on Bitcoin. Navigating Market Volatility and Funding Dynamics Malcolm candidly acknowledges the turbulent market conditions, likening the current environment to flying a plane through heavy turbulence. Despite this, he advises investors to maintain a long-term perspective, focusing on the broader horizon rather than short-term market noise. The dynamic nature of funding availability and market capitalization impacts Coinsilium's ability to raise capital, but recent developments such as Oak Securities' launch of a dedicated digital asset fund provide encouraging signs of growing institutional support. Coinsilium's lean operational structure—without large teams or costly offices—means that a smaller proportion of funds raised must be allocated to overheads. This efficiency allows more capital to be directed toward Bitcoin acquisition, further reinforcing the company's core treasury strategy. What Differentiates Coinsilium in a Crowded Market With an increasing number of companies adopting Bitcoin treasury strategies, Malcolm stresses the importance of experience and a well-defined approach. Coinsilium's long-standing presence in the digital asset space provides a strong foundation, contrasting with many newer entrants who may lack a robust strategy or the ability to sustain funding over multiple raises. He urges investors and companies alike to conduct thorough research before entering this space. Holding some Bitcoin on a balance sheet is not sufficient; a company's roadmap, treasury policy, and strategic vision must be carefully examined. Coinsilium's publicly available Bitcoin treasury policy outlines its objectives and methodology, serving as a valuable resource for understanding the company's commitment to this space. Malcolm also highlights the importance of understanding the concept of a leverage play on Bitcoin. Investors often evaluate companies based on the "MNAV" (multiple of net asset value), which functions similarly to a price-to-earnings ratio in traditional equity markets. This metric helps determine whether a company's valuation is justified by its Bitcoin holdings and growth prospects. Regulatory and Structural Considerations in the UK Unlike some US counterparts, UK companies face additional regulatory complexities when structuring Bitcoin treasury operations. Companies cannot simply exist as entities that hold Bitcoin; they must have underlying business activities that differentiate them from passive holders or trackers of cryptocurrency value. Coinsilium meets these requirements through its diversified investments and operational ventures, including its wholly owned Gibraltar subsidiary, Forza Gibraltar Limited, which focuses on Bitcoin treasury operations. These regulatory nuances add a layer of complexity but also contribute to the credibility and sustainability of companies like Coinsilium in the UK market. As the regulatory environment evolves, Malcolm remains hopeful that conditions will become even more conducive to growth in this sector. Looking Ahead: Continued Growth and Market Engagement Coinsilium is poised to continue its momentum, with several announcements planned over the summer to keep the growth flywheel turning. The company's strategy of raising capital, acquiring Bitcoin, and communicating progress is expected to persist as market conditions stabilize and institutional involvement deepens. Malcolm's final message for investors is one of cautious optimism: despite volatility and funding challenges, Coinsilium's disciplined approach and deep experience position it well to capitalize on the expanding Bitcoin treasury strategy landscape. Conclusion Coinsilium's journey in the Bitcoin treasury space exemplifies a measured, strategic approach to digital asset investment. By focusing on sustainable fundraising, disciplined Bitcoin acquisition, and clear communication, the company offers a compelling value proposition amid a rapidly evolving market. Investors and observers looking to understand the nuances of Bitcoin treasury strategies would do well to consider Coinsilium's experience and operational rigor as a benchmark in this burgeoning sector. For those interested in learning more about Coinsilium and its strategy, exploring the company's detailed Bitcoin treasury policy and staying attuned to upcoming announcements will provide deeper insights into its vision and execution.

Everything You Need to Know About EU Regulation 2025/1234 and the Future of eIFU for Medical Devices On July 16, 2025, a pivotal regulatory update—EU 2025/1234—comes into effect, expanding the use of electronic Instructions for Use (eIFU) to a much broader range of medical devices and accessories. Unlike previous regulations that limited eIFU to implantables or certain fixed devices, this amendment now authorizes the use of eIFU for all professional-use medical devices, including those covered by transitional provisions and even non-medical products listed under Annex XVI. This shift marks a turning point in the digitization of compliance documentation in the medical device industry. In this video, we walk you through the full impact of the new regulation, as well as the operational benefits and responsibilities that come with adopting eIFU.

  Background: From IT in India to MedTech in Norway  You have a pretty fascinating background – you studied computer applications/IT back in India and now you're a Quality/Regulatory Manager in the Norwegian medtech scene. Can you walk us through that journey? How did you go from an IT degree in India to working with medical device regulations in Norway? (What prompted the move and career change?)  What were the biggest challenges when you switched into the medical devices field? For example, was there a steep learning curve with all the medical and regulatory jargon?  And conversely, do you think your IT background gives you any unique advantages in QARA? (Maybe in handling technical documentation or bringing a fresh perspective?)  Day-to-Day as a QARA Manager   Let's talk about what a QARA Manager actually does. What does a typical day or week look like for you as a Quality and Regulatory Affairs Manager? (For instance, are you reviewing a lot of documents, meeting with engineers, training colleagues, dealing with audits… all of the above?)  It would be great if you could mention some of the tools or software you use regularly. Are there specific QMS (Quality Management System) tools, document control systems, or even simple spreadsheets that are part of your daily routine?  We often hear that QA/RA folks are like the “internal police” in a company – some colleagues think you just spend days reading boring regulations and chasing them to follow rules (laughs). How true or untrue is that stereotype? How would you describe the role to someone who thinks it might be dry or overly bureaucratic?  On that note, an article I read actually said quality and regulatory roles are among the most dynamic and diverse in a company. You have to know a bit of everything – the tech, the laws, writing skills, you name it. What parts of the QARA role do you find most challenging, and which parts are the most rewarding?  (For example, is it challenging that the scope is so broad – one moment you're deep in engineering specs, next moment you're updating a regulatory policy? And rewarding perhaps when a product finally gets approved or when you prevent a big issue?)  First MedTech Role at Hy5Pro AS  Let's dive into your work experiences. Your first QARA role in Norway was at Hy5Pro AS, a startup developing a pretty cool product – a hydraulic prosthetic hand for amputees. What was it like stepping into Quality/Regulatory at a company making robotic hands?  (Feel free to explain what Hy5Pro's product was and your role there, e.g. implementing the quality system, getting certifications, etc.)  Do you have any memorable anecdotes from Hy5Pro? Perhaps a big challenge you faced early on or a funny incident while working on the prosthetic hand project. For instance, a lot of startups at that stage are trying to get their first ISO 13485 certification or pass initial regulatory hurdles – any story around that?  (e.g. “the day the auditors came for ISO certification” or a time something went wrong and how the team fixed it – anything that was a learning moment for you.)  Leading QARA at RemovAid AS   After Hy5, you moved on to RemovAid AS, which is another fascinating company – they created a device for removing contraceptive implants (a small gadget to help doctors remove those under-the-skin birth control implants). And I believe you were Head of Quality Assurance & Regulatory Compliance there. What were your main responsibilities at RemovAid, and how did it differ from your previous role?  RemovAid's product is a Class IIa medical device and was CE-marked under the new EU Medical Device Regulation. That sounds like a huge regulatory achievement. Can you share a proud moment from your time at RemovAid? For example, leading the company to ISO 13485 quality certification, or getting that CE approval, or the first time the device was manufactured at scale.  (We saw on LinkedIn you celebrated the first RemovAid device coming off a high-volume production line – feel free to tell that story!)  On the flipside, any tough or funny moments while at RemovAid? Perhaps juggling multiple roles in a small startup, or an unexpected problem that popped up (like a quirky product test failure or a documentation marathon just before a deadline)?  RemovAid is in women's health tech. Did working on a product aimed at female healthcare bring any special perspective or motivation for you? (Given it's about making contraceptive care easier – that's quite impactful.)  Consulting Experience at LINK Medical   Now, currently you're working at LINK Medical as a Medical Device Manager in their Quality/Regulatory team. So you went from being in-house at startups to a consulting role where you support multiple companies. What has that transition been like? How is life as a consultant different from working within a single company?  I imagine as a consultant you get to see a variety of projects – different devices, different teams – which can be exciting. Can you share any interesting experiences from your consulting work so far? Maybe an example of a cool project you helped on, or a common mistake you see companies making with QARA that you help fix, or even a humorous experience of jumping into a new company's project mid-stream.  Also, how do you manage your time and sanity when juggling multiple clients or projects? That sounds challenging – any personal tricks you've learned for staying organized when everyone needs your expertise at once? (laughs – “the consultant life”)*  Diversity and International Career Insights   I'd like to touch on diversity and your international experience. You're a woman in the medtech industry and you've built your career across two countries and cultures. Have you faced any unique challenges as a woman working in medical devices and QARA? And what about being an international professional – any cultural adjustments or advantages you've noticed working in Norway compared to India?  The medtech industry, especially in leadership, still isn't very diverse – I read that less than a quarter of executive roles in medtech are held by women. How do you feel about the state of diversity in our field? Are things improving, and have you seen progress during your career?  What advice would you give to companies or teams to foster a more inclusive environment, especially in fields like quality and regulatory? (Since those teams often work with all departments, they can influence company culture too.)  Rapid-Fire Round   Host: Okay, Pardeep, to wrap up on a fun note, we have a rapid-fire round! I'll ask you a series of quick questions and you answer with the first thing that comes to mind. Ready? (brief pause) Go!  Question 1: What's one thing about your job that most people would be surprised to learn?  Question 2: What's the coolest medical device or gadget you've worked on or seen so far?  Question 3: Are you team coffee or tea? (What fuels your workdays?)  Question 4: Is there a quality/regulatory jargon or acronym you think is funny or confusing (and what does it actually mean)?  Question 5: If you weren't in QARA, what alternate career could you see yourself in?  Question 6: What's one Norwegian word or phrase you've picked up that you love to use? (Bonus: translate it for us!)*  Question 7: If your career journey were made into a movie title, what would it be? (Just for fun!)  (Guest gives rapid-fire answers with laughter and brief commentary.)  Advice and Closing   Now, before we sign off, I want to circle back to a more reflective note. What advice or words of inspiration do you have for junior professionals, students, or even folks thinking of switching careers into Quality and Regulatory in medtech? For someone listening who says, “This sounds interesting but also a bit overwhelming,” how can they prepare and what should they expect?  (For example, should they get familiar with certain regulations or take courses? Find a mentor? Be ready to continually learn? Share any practical tips.)  And maybe equally important, what should they not be scared of? People might think “Oh, I'm not a science or law expert, can I do this?” – any encouragement to help them overcome that hesitation?      Podcast Interview Questions for Pardeep Kaur (Reg compliance manager Oslo University Hospital)  Welcome & Setup  Can you briefly introduce yourself and describe your current role as a Quality & Regulatory Affairs Manager?  Career Journey  How did you go from earning a Computer Applications/IT degree in India to a QARA career in Norway?  What motivated you to switch into medical device regulations, and what were the biggest initial challenges?  In what ways has your IT background helped you excel in QARA?  Day-to-Day Responsibilities  What does a typical day or week look like for you as a QARA Manager?  Which tools or software (QMS systems, document controls, etc.) do you rely on most?  Is it true that QA/RA professionals are the “internal police”? How would you describe the role to someone who thinks it's all paperwork?  Which aspects of QARA do you find most challenging, and which are the most rewarding?  Hy5Pro AS Experience  What was it like implementing QARA at Hy5Pro, developing a hydraulic prosthetic hand?  Can you share a memorable “learning moment” or funny anecdote from your time there?  RemovAid AS Experience  At RemovAid, you led Quality & Regulatory for a Class IIa implant-removal device—what were your core responsibilities?  Describe a proud milestone (e.g., ISO 13485 certification or CE marking) and the story behind it.  Any unexpected or humorous challenges you overcame in that role?  How did working on a women's health product impact you personally?  LINK Medical Consulting  How has transitioning to a consulting role at LINK Medical differed from in-house QARA positions?  What's a standout project or recurring compliance issue you help clients solve?  How do you stay organized when juggling multiple clients and deadlines?  Diversity & International Insights  As a woman in medtech QARA, have you faced any unique challenges or opportunities?  What cultural adjustments did you experience moving from India to Norway?  How can medtech teams become more inclusive, especially in QA/RA?  Rapid-Fire Round  (Answer quickly with the first thing that comes to mind.)  One surprise fact about your job?  Coolest device or gadget you've worked on or seen?  Favorite (or funniest) QARA acronym—what does it mean?  Alternate career you might have chosen?  Norwegian word or phrase you love—translate it for us!  If your career were a movie title, what would it be?  Closing Advice  What practical steps should students or career-changers take to break into QARA?  What misconceptions shouldn't they be afraid of when considering this field?

Stablecoins have grown from a total value of ~$2 billion in 2019 to over $230 billion by early 2025, enabling $33 trillion in transactions across 236 million wallets. But beneath this growth lies a deep — and fragile — dependence on the U.S. Treasury market.Professor Yesha Yadav of Vanderbilt Law School and Brendan Malone, formerly of Paradigm, the Federal Reserve Board, and MIT, discuss their paper on the critical but underexamined relationship between U.S. dollar stablecoins and Treasuries. They unpack why Treasuries act as the “anchor” for stablecoins, explore operational and liquidity risks, and outline what policy changes might be necessary to avert a crisis.Timestamps: ➡️ 00:00 — Intro➡️ 01:10 — Sponsor: Hedera Council is hiring a legal counsel➡️ 02:40 — Why is the U.S. Treasury market so critical to stablecoins?➡️ 04:32 — Treasuries as “cash equivalents” and risk-free assets➡️ 07:33 — What does it mean to “hold” Treasuries?➡️ 11:38 — Liquidity and operational risks➡️ 14:34 — Changing structure of Treasury markets➡️ 16:12 — 24/7 crypto vs. limited-hour Treasury markets➡️ 20:06 — Systemic risk scenarios➡️ 28:27 — The urgent need for preemptive policy solutions➡️ 33:22 — Regulatory fragmentation: “everyone's responsible, so no one is”➡️ 38:51 — Possible reforms: more short-term issuance, repo market, reserves access➡️ 40:53 — Treasuries as “risk-free” assets — myth vs. reality➡️ 46:23 — Potential Fed facilities and why they aren't in place yet➡️ 51:06 — Bonus: Hedera Council's General Counsel Gregory Schneider on their open position.Sponsor: Hedera Council is hiring a legal counsel.

SummaryIn this episode, Sean and Terry discuss the complexities surrounding the G2211 add-on code in healthcare billing. They reflect on personal experiences, the importance of understanding coding regulations, and the implications of team-based care. The conversation highlights the challenges faced by healthcare providers in navigating compliance and the potential misuse of coding practices. They emphasize the need for proper education and adherence to guidelines to avoid pitfalls in billing practices.TakeawaysThe G2211 code is often misused and misunderstood.Team-based care is essential for appropriate billing of G2211.Providers must have a longitudinal relationship with patients to use G2211.Urgent care facilities should not use the G2211 code.Misuse of G2211 can lead to increased scrutiny from regulators.Education on coding guidelines is crucial for healthcare providers.The complexity of patient care should dictate billing practices.Providers should avoid automatic billing for G2211 without proper review.Regulatory compliance is becoming stricter under the current administration.Healthcare providers must be aware of the risks associated with coding practices.

This week on Fat Science, Dr. Emily Cooper, Andrea Taylor, and Mark Wright revisit the critical topic of endocrine disruptors—chemicals in our environment that interfere with hormones and impact metabolism, weight, and overall health. Dr. Cooper breaks down how everyday exposures to substances like phthalates, BPA, and others can have generational effects on metabolic pathways and disease risk. The episode highlights the link between these chemicals and the rising rates of obesity, diabetes, and even cancer, while offering practical steps for minimizing exposure in daily life.Key Takeaways:Endocrine disruptors are chemicals found not only in food but in everyday items such as furniture, makeup, plastics, and baby products, making exposure widespread and difficult to avoid.These chemicals can mimic or block hormones, disrupting critical metabolic and developmental processes, with effects that may pass to future generations.Regulatory oversight in the U.S. is decreasing, with significant EPA budget cuts threatening existing screening and cleanup programs targeting endocrine-disrupting chemicals.Air quality improvements, especially through HEPA filtration, and making informed choices during preconception, pregnancy, and early childhood, can help reduce exposure.Consumer awareness, advocacy, and using resources like the Environmental Working Group (EWG) app are key strategies for individuals seeking to lower risk.Personal Stories & Practical Advice:Andrea shares the everyday struggle to find safe, affordable alternatives and the surprise of seeing improvements in metabolic hormone levels after changing air filters and reducing workplace exposures.Dr. Cooper discusses strategies to minimize risk during critical windows such as preconception and pregnancy, and emphasizes the power of informed consumer choices in driving safer product development.Resources from the episode:Environmental Working Group (EWG) resources and app for product safety ratingsU.S. EPA Endocrine Disruptor Screening Program (EDSP)PubMed for scientific research on specific chemicals (BPA, phthalates, PFAS)Connect with Dr. Emily Cooper on LinkedIn.Connect with Mark Wright on LinkedIn.Connect with Andrea Taylor on Instagram.Fat Science is a podcast on a mission to explain where our fat really comes from and why it won't go and stay away.

It's a Medicaid Madness mess.For many years, Medicaid has been providing support for America's most vulnerable populations. But now, Medicaid finds itself as a pawn, being manipulated for political gain between two opposing forces: those who view the program as a means to an end to reduce government spending, and those who hold the opposite point of view.Who will be the winners and losers? During the next live edition of the venerated Monitor Mondays, senior healthcare consultant Dennis Jones will report on how hospitals can save money in the face of the inevitable Medicaid cuts.Jones, senior director of revenue cycle at Jefferson Health, was among the first of hand-picked subject-matter experts heard nearly 14 years ago on the weekly Internet broadcast produced by RACmonitor.The Monday's broadcast will also include these instantly recognizable features:• Monday Rounds: Ronald Hirsch, MD, vice president of R1 RCM, will be making his Monday Rounds.• The RAC Report: Healthcare attorney Knicole Emanuel, partner at the law firm of Nelson Mullins, will report the latest news about auditors.• Risky Business: Sitting in for healthcare attorney David Glaser will be attorney Marguarite Ahman, a shareholder in the law offices of Fredrikson & Byron.• Legislative Update: Matthew Albright, chief legislative affairs analyst for Zelis, will report on the news happening at the intersection of healthcare and congressional action.
