El volumen ya está bajando en Bolsa y las sesiones empiezan a ser un poco aburridas. Quedan pocas sesiones para que termine el año y eso aleja la posibilidad de que el Ibex cierre del año por encima de los 12.000 puntos. Si exceptuamos a IAG el recorte es palpable. Mi sensación es que vamos a ir a la zona de los 11.450-11.350 puntos Hay demasiado optimismo en el mercado. El Dow Jones suma 9 sesiones consecutivas cayendo. No quiero ser alarmista, pero cuando todo el mundo está comprado lo normal es que haya caídas. En el Consultorio de Bolsa hoy contamos con Miguel Méndez, Analista independiente. Con el experto hemos visto los siguientes valores: Rigetti Computing, Quantum, D-Wave, IAG, Amer Sports, Netflix, Universal Health, Micro Strategy, Tesla, Robinhood, Meta, Microsoft, Savaria, Wheaton, PayPal, Block, Twilio, MoneyLion y Upstart Holdings.

The Nasdaq hit another all-time best thanks to a few big caps, and is starting to look extended. The S&P 500 set a closing high. But the Dow and Russell 2000 fell, struggling around the 50-day line, though they came off early afternoon lows. Chipotle cleared a short consolidation while Universal Health held a buy zone. GE Aerospace fell through its 50-day.

In this episode, I spoke with Robert Yates, Executive Director of the Centre for Universal Health at Chatham House. A political health economist specializing in universal health coverage (UHC) and progressive health financing, Rob recounted a career-defining experience that reshaped his perspective on health financing reforms. Our discussion explored the complexities of UHC, the critical role of political will in health system transformation, and the interdisciplinary nature of driving effective health policies in times of crisis.

For decades US policymakers have tried to achieve the universal health insurance coverage that many other developed countries enjoy. But despite incremental reforms, based on tweaking health insurance markets, America's uninsured population has remained stubbornly high. In a paper in the Journal of Economic Perspective, authors Katherine Baicker, Amitabh Chandra, and Mark Shepard argue that economists should move away from the paradigm that has inspired these past reforms and toward an approach that encourages wholesale change. They say that proposals should start from a basic, mandatory health insurance package, which can then be supplemented in markets for health insurance.  Shepard recently spoke with Tyler Smith about the success of health care systems using this framework in other developed countries and why economists need to rethink their approach to health insurance reform in the United States.

Welcome once again to the global health unfiltered podcast, a podcast about unspoken realities about global health in Africa and the world.  Today, we will be talking about funding global health initiatives; who funds what? How are the decisions made? Are African countries too reliant on external funding for public health? And we have an awesome guest with tons of experience in this sector who will be sharing his views with us. We would also like to acknowledge the sponsors of this episode, the “Promoting Decolonization using innovative knowledge practices" grant hosted by the Center for Tropical Medicine and Global Health of Oxford University's Nuffield Department of Medicine. Dr. Sam Oti is a Senior Program Specialist at Canada's International Development Research Centre (IDRC). He operates out of the Nairobi-based regional office for Eastern and Southern Africa, where he serves as the primary point of contact for IDRC's global health initiatives.  He is also a commissioner on the Chatham House Commission for Universal Health and a co-founder of the Network of Impact Evaluation Researchers in Africa. Additionally, Dr. Oti hosts “MedxTek Africa”; a popular podcast highlighting digital health and health technology innovations from across the African continent. In 2020, Dr. Oti co-founded the Global Health Decolonisation Movement in Africa – a professional network that is seeking to mobilize a critical mass of African voices to speak out about what we perceive as the manifestations of coloniality in global health. The movement's mission strongly aligns with the Africa CDC's call for a “New Public Health Order”.Resources:https://wellcomecollection.org/articles/Y1FlZxEAAEolDkdAhttps://www.oecd-ilibrary.org/development/development-co-operation-report-2023_2c087f8b-enhttps://academic.oup.com/isq/article/66/1/sqab092/6473249 Follow us on Twitter (@unfiltered_gh), LinkedIn (Global Health Unfiltered!), and Instagram (@ghunfiltered).Keep up with us on Twitter: @desmondtanko @ulricksidney and @DrellaamoakoContact us: unfilteredgh@gmail.comAudio Production and social media marketing: Diana NkhomaResearch intern: Chisomo MwaleTheme music: Antidote by KetsaArtwork: Chidiebere Ibe

In this thought-provoking episode, we delve into the topic of universal health insurance, specifically Medicare for All, examining the benefits and drawbacks of publicly funded health insurance. We start by exploring what universal health insurance is and how it works, discussing the potential benefits of having such a system in place. We highlight how having access to health insurance can provide individuals with the ability to take bigger risks in life, such as starting a business or pursuing a passion. Additionally, we discuss how universal health insurance can provide a safety net, helping to lower or eliminate medical debt and providing a larger sense of community across the country. However, we also discuss the potential drawbacks of such a system, such as increased taxes and the cost of paying for other people's healthcare. We also acknowledge that wait times and the average level of care may increase. Next, we dive into why it's essential to discuss the need for universal health insurance, emphasizing that AI is already taking jobs and reducing overall headcount. The looming recession and the Fed's recommendation to cut 1.5 million jobs only add to the urgency of this discussion. We highlight the consequences of not having health insurance, such as worsening health issues and higher costs to the public. Finally, we provide resources for listeners to do their research and make up their minds about the topic. We encourage listeners to start talking about this important issue to help create change. Overall, this episode is a thought-provoking examination of universal health insurance, providing listeners with valuable insights into the benefits and drawbacks of such a system and the urgency of discussing it in today's economic and political climate.

The virtues of sight, sound and movement are therapeutic modalities essential to obtaining Universal Health, Well Being, and Community Transformation. Episode one speaks into the use of sound/music as a common bond that provides an on ramp for deeper examinations of the realities of where we experience dis-ease.   This informative conversation is part one of a series of episodes which will examine sight, sound and movement as therapeutic modalities for patients as well as those who may not perceive the health challenges they are inside of due to inequality, white supremacy, lack of trust, as well as a myriad of social challenges prevalent in today's world.

Implementing universal health insurance has its fair share of challenges. Indonesia operates one of the world's largest universal health insurance schemes, but only one-third of its informal workers are receiving government subsidies for insurance premiums, due to barriers to enrollment, weak administrative state capacity, and inaccuracies in the state's civil registries. This situation incites several questions: How does Indonesia's current economic condition affect its national health insurance program? What are the methods to increase its enrollment? “The Challenges of Universal Health Insurance in Developing Countries: A Case of Indonesia's National Health Insurance”, an academic paper published in the American Economic Review strives to answer these questions. In this very first Paper dialogue, we invite Benjamin Olken, the Jane Berkowitz Calrton and Dennis WIlliam Carlton Professor of Microeconomics in the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and one of the contributors of this paper.

In episode 7, we discuss how health needs, and the provision of health services, in humanitarian response works and where using Cash and Voucher Assistance (CVA) may help.  What we know already is that CVA may be used for health outcomes but giving cash via Multi-Purpose Cash Assistance (MPCA) via the Minimum Expenditure Basket (MEB) isn't enough to meet health needs.  We look at best practice on including health in the MEB, innovations in using CVA on the demand side, and exciting new hybrid approaches that are bridging demand and supply to improve access and quality.Globally, meeting health needs is known to be an inherently complex challenge.  This is because both the demand side (who needs care, what care do they need), and the supply side (hospitals, doctors, nurses, pharmacies – and their funding) of quality health care are critical factors. Within a humanitarian context, accessing quality health services when needed is generally difficult for socio-economically vulnerable people, since individual health needs are often unpredictable. At the same time, access and availability of quality health services is likely to be affected by the crisis. The results of post-distribution monitoring and other surveys show that people in receipt of cash, especially multipurpose cash, repeatedly spend a large proportion of the cash on accessing health services.  Given this context, in this episode of the CashCast, our panel of experts explore the following questions:How do health cluster members approach meeting health needs in a humanitarian crisis? Why are health needs and health services different to other needs and services? For example, food security and markets.Should we include health needs in an MEB and thus in the MPCA transfer value?  Are there recent innovations in using CVA for health outcomes? The host and guests are:Julie Lawson-McDowall (host) – Technical Advisor at the CALP Network.Andre Griekspoor – a medical doctor and public health expert with long experience in humanitarian health response. Andre is currently working in the Fragile, Conflict affected and Vulnerable settings unit of the World Health Organization' s department for Health Emergency Interventions. Among other things, he is responsible for health policy development in protracted crises, which includes approaches for health system strengthening in fragile contexts, and support to post conflict and disaster recovery planning processes. Anna Gorter – a medical doctor with a PhD in epidemiology. She has 40 years of experience working in low- and middle-income countries as a public health expert. Since 1995, she has been involved in the development of various approaches for Results Based Financing (RBF) for Health, such as health vouchers, and cash transfers. Corinne Grainger – an independent consultant working in health financing and health systems strengthening, with more than 20 years' experience providing technical assistance across a range of intervention areas including Sexual and Reproductive Health, Family planning, MNH and adolescent health. In addition to support for programme design, management and evaluation, she has provided capacity development and strategic planning support for a range of government and NGOs.  We invite you to listen to this fascinating and in-depth conversation!Further reading: there are associated resources produced by Global Health Cluster, WHO's Cash Task Team and CALP.

My name is Catherine Krantz and I am running for Congress because I think we can do better. Small towns in America are getting the short end of the stick. We are underfunded in almost everything: schools, roads, hospitals, and telecommunications. It is time to put people over politics and invest in our communities. I am a Progressive Democrat running for office in one of America’s most Conservative Republican districts but I will win because I know how frustrated we all are with low paying jobs, high cost of health care, lack of prosperity and opportunity in our communities. I know we have more in common with each other than with the career politicians who represent us and I know we all want what’s best for our communities. We need more jobs, better jobs that pay a living wage.  We need Direct Investment in Infrastructure, our internet and telecommunications infrastructure is barely 1st world.  Direct Investment in national broad band would lead to an economic boom all across rural America, it is worth it. We need Universal Health care, Americans shouldn’t have to worry about an accident or illness bankrupting their families. America can afford it, Americans deserve it. Our kids deserve a high quality education that prepares them for a successful life.  Texas is ranked one of the lowest funded states for public education, we can do better. http://catherinekrantzforcongress.com/ Tribit XFree Tune Bluetooth Headphones: The best headphones for gym, or home use.

Another two weeks, another blade news filled extravaganza. It's never good when a skate session ends in the emergency room. This week we were saddened by the news about Chris Oplin taking a really bad fall. This of course brought us down the path to Universal Health care, which we apparently don't know enough about. From there we managed to pick up the pace and smashed the best news in the biz. Rollerblading roots keep coming up, and it's great to keep the legacy alive, but don't forget perspectives on the future! Keep your eyes and ears peeled because the best rollerblading keeps doing down in the most unlikely of places... like "ar" kansas for example. Don't forget to also check out this weeks great POTW.
