Exploring the Complexities of Pharma Rebates with Ann Lewandowski In this Summer Short episode of Relentless Health Value, host Stacey Richter converses again with Ann Lewandowski about the intricate dynamics of pharmaceutical rebates, or as Lewandowski prefers, post-sale concessions.  The discussion delves into the nuances of these rebates, the impact they have on drug costs, and the hidden consequences for patients and plan sponsors.  They highlight articles and insights by Austin Chelko and Peter Hayes, touching on how rebates can disadvantage the pursuit of lower-cost generics and biosimilars, and can obstruct pharmacogenetic testing that ensures drug efficacy and safety.  The conversation also critiques the opacity of rebates, deemed trade secrets by pharma and PBM companies, and underscores the ethical and financial dilemmas posed by the current rebate-driven system. === LINKS ===

Dana Williams was one of about 1,000 Voice of America employees put on administrative leave in March and then fired as the Trump administration has shuttered the 80-year-old Voice of America. A newspaper woman with experience in Florida and Guam Williams loved her job as overnight web editor for the service based in Guam. She saw no fraud and waste -- just reporters in places like Kenya taking personal risks to collect information and.co-workers insuring that China, Russia, and parts of Europe where a free press does not exist heard real news. She's sure she'll find a new pursuit. She's not so sure about press freedom in the US and beyond.

Lesley shares 3 short stories for 5 year olds: The Beach, The Wind and Feet. Then a story for those 6+: Seal Surf by Michael Foreman

Are science based or evidence based titles a good idea? How do we feel about science, especially in light of the recent dog study. Does science absolutely support R+ based/clicker training? How science has made me cross and how I'm learning to cut more slack! Heads up my Horse Trainer Foundation Certificate Course (accredited by Rural Skills) will be coming online in 2025, details will be released by Understand Horses very soon!

It will come as no big surprise that intentionally combining positive and negative reinforcement isn't something I'm huge on. I was surprised to hear experts/academics lack of understanding regarding things like shaping and backchaining and reducing reinforcement without frustration. It's a bit ranty :)

For our final Summer Short story of the 2024 season, we bring you Susan Bartfay and her story “Bad boys are my weakness”. Some people just have to recount things that happened in their life to bring a really incredible story to the stage. Susan told this one at our “Pot Luck” story slam that we held at our NEPM studios in Springfield. We're making plans for season 10 of Valley Voices Story Slams at venues throughout western Mass. this fall - hope to see you there!

I was talking to one health plan sponsor, and she told me if she sees any charges for value-based care anything on any one of the contracts that get handed to her, she crosses them off so fast it's like her superpower. For a full transcript of this episode, click here. If you enjoy this podcast, be sure to subscribe to the free weekly newsletter to be a member of the Relentless Tribe. What, you may wonder? Shouldn't employers and plan sponsors be all over value-based care–type things to do things preventatively because we all know that fee-for-service rewards, downstream consequences–type medical care, no money in upstream. Let's prevent those things from happening. Listen to the show with Tom Lee, MD (EP445); Scott Conard, MD (EP391); Brian Klepper, PhD (EP437). My goodness, we have done a raft of shows on this topic because it is such a thing. So, why wouldn't a plan sponsor be all over this value-based care opportunity? Now, I'm using the value-based care words and big old air quotes. Let's just keep that very much in mind for a couple of minutes here. I'm stressing right now that value-based care isn't a one-to-one overlap with care that is of value. So, let me ask you again, why wouldn't a plan sponsor be all over this air-quoted value-based care opportunity? Let me count the ways, and we'll start with this one. Katy Talento told me about this years ago. She said, it's not uncommon for dollars that a plan sponsor may pay to never make it to the entity that is actually providing the care to that plan sponsor's plan members. So, I'm a carrier and I say, I'm gonna charge you, plan sponsor, whatever as part of the PEPM (per employee per month) for value-based care or for a medical home, or pick something that sounds very appealing and value-like. Some of that money—not all of it, because the carrier's gonna keep some, you know, for administrative purposes—but whatever's left over could actually go to some clinical organization. Maybe it's the clinical organization that most of the plan's members are attributed to. Or maybe it's some clinical organization that the carrier is trying to make nicey nice with, which may or may not be the clinical organization that that plan sponsor's patients/members are actually going to. Like, the dollars go to some big, consolidated hospital when most of the plan's members are going to, say, indie PCPs in the community, as just one example. So, yeah, if I'm the plan sponsor in this mix, what am I paying for exactly and for how many of my members? I've seen the sharp type of plan sponsors whip up spreadsheets and do the math and report back that there ain't much value in that value-based care. It's a euphemism for, hey, here's an extra fee for something that sounds good, but … The end. Then I was talking to Marilyn Bartlett the other day and drilled down into some more angles about how this whole “hey, let's use the value-based care word to extract dollars from plan sponsors” goes down. Turns out, another modus operandi beyond the PEPM surcharge is for carriers to add “value-based fees” as a percentage increase or factor to the regular claims payments—something like, I don't know, 3.5% increase to claims. These fees are, in other words, hidden within billing codes. So, right, it's basically impossible to identify how much of this “value-based” piece of the action is actually costing. These fees are allowable, of course, because they're in the contract. The employer has agreed, whether they know it or not, to pay for value-based programs or alternative pay, even though the details are not at all, again, transparent. And that not at all transparent also includes stuff like, what if the health systems or clinical teams did not actually achieve the value-based program goals? What if they failed to deliver any value-based care at all for the value-based fees they have collected? How does anybody know if the prepaid fees were credited back to the plan sponsor, or if anything was actually accomplished there with those fees? Bottom line, fees are not being explicitly broken out or disclosed to the employers. Instead, they are getting buried within overall claims payments or coded in a way that obscures the value-based portion. So, yeah, charges for value-based care have become a solid plan to hide reimbursement dollars and make carrier administrative prices potentially look lower when selling to plan sponsors like self-insured employers. Justin Leader touches on this in episode 433 about the claims wire, by the way. Now, caveat, for sure, it's possible that patients can get services of value delivered because someone uses that extra money. And it's also possible that administrative costs go up and little if any value is accrued to patients, right? Like one or the other, some combination of both. It goes back to what Dr. Tom Lee talked about in episode 445. If there's an enlightened leader who gives a “shed,” then indeed, patients may win. But if not, if there's no enlightened leader in this mix, it's value based alright for carrier shareholders who take bad value all the way to the bank. Al Lewis quotes Paul Hinchey, MD, MBA, who is COO of Cleveland-based University Hospitals. And Dr. Hinchey wrote, “Value-based care has increasingly become a financial construct. What was once a philosophy centered on enhancing patient care has been reduced to a polarizing buzzword that exemplifies the lack of alignment between the financial and delivery elements of the healthcare system.” And then on the same topic, I saw William Bestermann, MD, he wrote, “The National Academy of Medicine mapped out a plan to value-based care 20 years ago in detail. We have never come close to value-based care because we have refused to follow the path. We could follow it, but we don't, and we never will as long as priorities are decided by businessmen representing stockholders. It is just that simple.” Okay, now. Let's reset. I'm gonna take a left turn, so fasten your seatbelts. Just because a bunch of for profit and not-for-profit, nothing for nothing, entities are jazz-handing their ways to wealth by co-opting terminology doesn't mean the intent of value-based care isn't still a worthy goal. And it also doesn't mean that some people aren't getting paid for and providing care that is of value and doing it well. There are, for sure, plenty of examples where an enlightened leader was able to operationalize and/or incentivize care that is of value. Occasionally, I also hear a story about a carrier doing interesting things to pay for care that is of value. Jodilyn Owen talked about one of these in episode 421. Justina Lehman also (EP414). We had Larry Bauer on the show (EP409) talking about three bright spots where frail elderly patients are getting really good care as opposed to the really bad care that you frequently hear about when you even say the words frail elderly patient. And all of these examples that he talked about were built on a capitated model or on a model that facilitated patients getting coordinated care and there being clinicians who were not worried about what code they were gonna put in the computer when they helped a patient's behavioral health or helped a patient figure out how they were gonna get transportation or help them access community services or whatnot. There are also employers direct contracting with health systems or PCPs and COEs (Centers of Excellence) and others, contracting directly with these entities to get the quality and safety and preventative attention that they are looking for. And there are health systems and PCPs and practices working really hard to figure out a business model that aligns with their own values. So, value-based care—the actual words, not the euphemism—value-based care can still be a worthy goal. And that, my friends, is what I'm talking about today with Elizabeth Mitchell, president and CEO of the Purchaser Business Group on Health (PBGH). PBGH members are really focused on innovating and implementing change. We talk about some of this innovation and implementation on the show today, and it is very inspiring. Elizabeth argues for for-real alternative payment models that are transparent to the employer plan sponsors. She wants prospective payments or bundled payments, and she wants them with warranties that are measurable. She wants members to get integrated whole-person care in a measurable way, which most health plans (ie, middlemen) either cannot or will not administer. Elizabeth says to achieve actual care that is of value, cooperation between employers, employees, and primary care providers is crucial (ie, direct contracts). She also says that this whole effort is really, really urgently needed given the affordability crisis affecting many Americans. There's been just one article after another lately about how many billions and billions of dollars are getting siphoned off the top into the pockets of the middlemen and their shareholders. These are dollars partially paid for by employees and plan members. We have 48% of Americans with commercial insurance delaying or forgoing care due to cost. If you're a self-insured employer and you're hearing this, don't be thinking it doesn't impact you because your employees are highly compensated. As Deborah Williams wrote the other day, she wrote, “Co-pays have gotten high enough that even higher-income patients can't afford them.” And she was referencing a study to that end. So, yeah … with that, here is your Summer Short with Elizabeth Mitchell. Also mentioned in this episode are Purchaser Business Group on Health; Tom X. Lee, MD; Scott Conard, MD; Brian Klepper, PhD; Katy Talento; Marilyn Bartlett; Justin Leader; Laurence Bauer, MSW, MEd; Al Lewis; Paul Hinchey, MD, MBA; William Bestermann, MD; Jodilyn Owen; Justina Lehman; and Deborah Williams.   You can learn more at PBGH and by connecting with Elizabeth on LinkedIn.   Elizabeth Mitchell, president and CEO of the Purchaser Business Group on Health (PBGH), supports the implementation of PBGH's mission of high-quality, affordable, and equitable healthcare.

Show Notes Summer Short: “Don't Page Me, Bro!” This week Host Dave Bledsoe slaps an old beeper he found in a box in the basement on the bar and asks if “doctors drank for free” (They don't and he isn't one.)  On the show this week we are doing a Summer Short about that time in the late 80's when every kid with the beeper in America was slinging smack. (They weren't and it was racist moral panic thing.) Along the way we learn about the Worst Summer of Dave's Life. (He couldn't drink for a couple of weeks.) Then we dive into the story with the “411” on pagers (but just the basics, this IS a Summer Short) before getting to the meat of the story: how beepers became synonymous with the drug trade. (Was the media involved? You already know the answer!) We then chart the progress from school suspension to felony beeper possession in America's schools. (Fuck, White People were so scared of Black kids!) We see the fever break thanks to Howard Stern. (We are not making this up) and of course millions of dollars spent by corporations. Our Sponsor this week is Beeper City, your one and pretty much only stop, for all your beeper needs. We open with all the reasons your dad should buy you a beeper and close with Sir Mix A Lot beep beep beeping along.

Taking note of changes in behaviour might help us spot problems early. This is part 1 of my summer shorts 2024, if you have questions you'd like answering in another short episode message me!

Ready to get colorful with your feelings? I want to show you how to think of your emotions as a palette, filled with blues of sadness, reds of passion, and every hue in between. Listen in to this Summer Short as we dig into how to mix and balance these colors to paint a picture of a life truly felt. Get your brushes ready; we're about to create an emotional masterpiece!

It's easy to get caught up in chasing expectations and seeking approval from others. But what if true happiness comes from loving ourselves more, not doing more? In this episode, we'll dive into the idea of putting self-love first and see how accepting ourselves can really change our lives. Let's clear away the pressure from outside demands and focus on creating a life filled with compassion, kindness, and unapologetic self-love. Join me on this summer road trip in making self-love our top priority as we Calm it Down in 3…2…1.

Show Notes Summer Short #2: Cause of Death: Pop Rocks This week Host Dave Bledsoe tries to impress an old drunk lady at the bar by offering to demonstrate the size of his Eructation, and gets tasered before she learned it meant burps. (She tasered him again after she did learn it) On the show this week, it's a Summer Short, smaller episodes we do to give our writers a break during the Summer.  This week, the tragic death of Life Cereal's Mikey by Pop Rock consumption. (Hint: It didn't happen.) Along the way we learn that Dave ‘s poor life choices are part of a long history with him. (Ask his parents) Then we move right into an abbreviated history of all things carbonated candy. We meet the inventors and companies that shepherded this life changing product to store shelves.(For a little while) Then comes the tragic story of how Coke took the life of an American icon. (The soda, not the nose candy.) Finally we expose the REAL TRUTH ™ behind the story of Pop Rocks. (Hint: It wasn't exploding kids.)

Ah, the camera we carry around everywhere and MAYBE use as a phone once in a while. But in the age of digital photography, it's easy to take for granted the power of a single image to capture a moment, a memory, a story.  So what about the pictures we have yet to take - the future memories waiting to be framed and cherished?  In this episode, I'll reflect on the significance of the photographs we hold dear and explore how being present and mindful in our everyday lives can help us create new "frame-worthy" moments. Join me as we ponder the stories behind the images and discover the joy of embracing the imperfect, in-between moments as we Calm it Down in 3…2…1.

Vitamin D is an essential nutrient that's hard to obtain through food alone; the best source is sunlight.   Unfortunately, most people don't live in a place where they can maintain a tan year-round to keep their vitamin D levels optimal.

May I just take a moment and thank the Healthy economist for leaving a super nice review on iTunes? The title of the review is “Best podcast on the healthcare industry,” and the Healthy economist writes, “There's no one simple fix [for the healthcare industry], but [Relentless Health Value] contains valuable insights on what actions can be taken to make things better for consumers and patients.” Thank you, Healthy economist. In this summer short, I am talking with Brennan Bilberry; and we're talking about why everybody isn't suing health systems for behaving badly in sometimes pretty egregious ways. Why isn't anybody stepping in to prevent all of this consolidation that we all know, at this point, is pretty bad news? FTC, where are you? Brennan Bilberry cites three reasons for the way fewer antitrust lawsuits than you'd think would be going on: 1. A continuing lack of transparency. It's tough to sue someone when you aren't really sure what they're up to, and, even if you do, it's hard to prove because you can't get the data you need to prove it. 2. Political power of hospitals means legislatures have a hard time telling their major donors to kiss off and pass laws that actually enable legal recourse. 3. Turns out the FTC is a little toothless when it comes to those with tax-exempt (ie, nonprofit) status. Nobody expected nonprofits to act the way that some nonprofits are acting, and the laws haven't caught up with the reality of the situation. My guest in this healthcare podcast as aforementioned is Brennan Bilberry, who is a founding partner over at Fairmark Partners, which is a law firm litigating some of these antitrust lawsuits against some of these hospital chains. The original pod with Brennan (EP395) is entitled “Consolidated Hospital Systems and Cunning Anticompetitive Contracts.” Here's a link to an article I was thinking about while recording this show about Daran Gaus's hypothesis for how mergers will impact hospital prices. And here's a link to an article about how commercial prices for outpatient visits were 26% higher for patients receiving care at a health system than those visiting nonsystem physicians and hospitals. Covering some of the consequences of consolidation and what it tends to do in local markets is the show with Cora Opsahl (EP373) and also the encore with Dale Folwell, state treasurer in North Carolina. One last link is to the conversation I had with Scott Conard, MD (EP391), where the local hospital bought a local ACO (accountable care organization) physician organization and the community paid an additional $100 million to the hospital the following year.   You can learn more at fairmarklaw.com.   Brennan Bilberry is a founding partner of Fairmark Partners, LLP, a law firm focused on fair competition issues, especially in the healthcare industry. Fairmark has filed numerous antitrust cases against dominant hospital systems, seeking to tackle anticompetitive practices that lead to higher prices for businesses, consumers, and unions. Prior to founding Fairmark, Brennan worked as a policy consultant and political operative whose work included overseeing environmental public policy campaigns in numerous countries, providing international political intelligence for US investors, advising political campaigns around the world, and designing consumer and legal advertising. Brennan also worked on numerous US political campaigns, including serving as communications director for Terry McAuliffe's 2013 successful campaign for Virginia governor, serving as deputy executive director of the 2012 pro-Obama Super PAC Priorities USA, and developing research and policy communications for the House Democrats. Brennan is a native of Montana and South Dakota and has lived in Washington, DC, for the past 15 years.   00:23 Healthy economist's review of Relentless Health Value. 00:52 Why aren't more people suing hospitals? 01:16 How is the lack of transparency diminishing the number of lawsuits? 01:41 Why is the FTC a “little toothless” when it comes to nonprofits? 02:12 EP395 with Brennan Bilberry. 02:35 Why aren't there as many antitrust cases as there are instances of antitrust laws being broken? 03:10 Has consolidation of hospitals systems been good or bad? 03:45 What quirk in the law creates an impediment for FTC? 04:17 What are certificates of public advantage? 05:03 Why is private antitrust litigation important?   You can learn more at fairmarklaw.com.   @brbilberry discusses #hospital #antitrust cases on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast   Recent past interviews: Click a guest's name for their latest RHV episode!

My husband always says, “Can't there be something for me, is that so selfish?” and then will giggle and say that it's the definition of selfish…but is it?As Generation X Women our pendulum swung completely the opposite way.
