How many times have you been told, "Your labs are normal," even though you know something doesn't feel right? In this empowering solo episode, Dr. Mariza challenges one of the biggest beliefs women have been conditioned to accept: that being a "good patient" means staying quiet, pushing through symptoms, and trusting a healthcare system that has historically overlooked women's biology. She explores how decades of research gaps, delayed recognition of perimenopause, and outdated medical training have left millions of women feeling dismissed, unheard, and convinced that exhaustion, brain fog, anxiety, poor sleep, weight gain, and hormone changes are simply part of getting older. Dr. Mariza explains why perimenopause is far more than a reproductive transition. It's a neurological, metabolic, cardiovascular, and whole-body transition that deserves proactive care—not years of unnecessary suffering. Most importantly, she shares practical strategies for becoming an active partner in your healthcare, including how to prepare for appointments, ask better questions, understand your symptoms, and advocate for the care you deserve. If you've ever left a doctor's appointment feeling unheard or wondering if it's "all in your head," this episode will remind you that your symptoms matter, your intuition matters, and you deserve answers. IN THIS EPISODE Why women have been conditioned to become "good patients" The hidden impact of research gaps in women's healthcare Why "your labs are normal" isn't always the full story How perimenopause affects the brain, metabolism, heart, and hormones The questions every woman should ask at her medical appointments How to prepare for appointments so you become an active partner in your care The difference between normal lab ranges and optimal health Why you deserve evidence-based care that prioritizes your long-term health QUOTES “You are the CEO of your health.” “Symptoms are not inconveniences to silence. They are signals to understand.” “Normal isn't always the same as optimal.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Stop surviving and start thriving: join the free 5-day challenge beginning July 27, 2026: https://drmariza.com/jumpstart Use code ENERGIZED and get 10% off on your MitoQ Order http://www.mitoq.com/energized%C2%A0 Order my newest book: The Perimenopause Revolution Thriving in Perimenopause Survival Guide Joy & Blokes Lab Testing RELATED EPISODES  761: Finding Your Way Back to Pleasure and Feeling Fully Alive with Gabriella Espinosa 759: Tired, Wired & Inflamed?

Healthcare affordability is having a moment, and not the vague kind. From the Mackinac Policy Conference, we sit down with Dr. David Miller, Executive Vice Dean for Clinical Affairs at Michigan Medicine and President of the University of Michigan Health System, to talk about what it takes to lower the total cost of care while protecting access to top-tier clinical outcomes for patients across Michigan.We start with timely news: Michigan Medicine will continue its partnership with Blue Cross Blue Shield, easing uncertainty for people who rely on specialty care and were wondering whether they could even schedule their next visit. From there, we zoom out to the bigger policy and operational pressure points across the healthcare ecosystem: how to reduce complications in high-acuity care, why primary care and earlier intervention can prevent expensive crises later, and what “value-based insurance design” looks like when you're serious about paying for treatments that are proven to work.Then we get practical about AI in healthcare. Dr. Miller explains where ambient AI documentation is already reducing administrative burden, why technology-enabled medical education is becoming essential across the health professions, and how evidence from imaging and stroke triage can move innovations from promising demos into real clinical policy. We also talk about rural hospitals and lower resource environments, and how a statewide network can use technology to spread expertise beyond urban centers. We close with the financial reality of medical education and student debt, and what Michigan can do to keep the next generation of clinicians here.

Vasanta Pundarika built her career inside healthcare investment banking before launching Lotuspring, an advisory firm focused on women's health and behavioral health. She spent nearly 20 years advising healthcare systems, treatment providers, and growth stage companies on mergers, financing, and operational strategy while watching the industry repeatedly misunderstand the people it claimed to serve.The conversation starts unexpectedly with anthropology, bread, and language. Vasanta explains how she spent years changing the pronunciation of her own name to make other people comfortable before eventually reclaiming it. That thread opens into a much larger discussion about adaptation, identity, and what institutions quietly train people to tolerate.From there, the discussion moves into behavioral health, women delaying care, and the invisible labor that healthcare business models routinely ignore. During COVID, Vasanta noticed men's behavioral health units refilled faster than women's units. The reason had nothing to do with demand. Women were still home managing caregiving responsibilities, children, aging parents, and households while their own mental health collapsed in the background.The episode examines what happens when healthcare companies become “snazzy big brands” before building real clinical substance underneath. Vasanta describes the tension between mission and margin inside healthcare startups, private equity backed care models, and behavioral health expansion. The conversation pushes on who benefits when healthcare scales aggressively, who absorbs the operational pressure, and how patient trust erodes long before executives notice it on a dashboard.They also discuss patient advocacy culture, anthropology as systems analysis, healthcare capitalism, prior authorization, investor language, and why some clinically excellent companies never survive long enough to scale.RELATED LINKSVasanta PundarikaLotuspringWomen's Health HorizonsSakhi for South Asian SurvivorsNACDPrinceton University Anthropology DepartmentFEEDBACKLike this episode?

In Episode 52 of Pursuit of Balance, Corey tackles a listener question about healthcare burnout and turns it into a bigger conversation: why the American system is built for sick care, not health care. He digs into why we spend more than any country yet rank near the bottom on outcomes, why medical training leaves doctors under-equipped on nutrition and lifestyle, and why the people working inside hospitals are often the ones struggling most with their own health. Then he lays out the practical playbook — movement, whole foods, community, sleep, and stress management — for staying out of the system in the first place, whether you work rotating shifts or a standard 9-to-5.

What does it take to break through leadership barriers in medicine without sacrificing your authenticity? In this inspiring episode, Dr. Andrea Austin welcomes Dr. Shannon Udovic-Constant, as she shares her journey into executive leadership, the lessons she learned navigating spaces where women remain significantly underrepresented, and why visibility, not just hard work, is essential for career advancement. Together, Andrea and Shannon unpack the realities women physicians continue to face, from being mistaken for non-physician staff to balancing invisible labor at home while pursuing leadership opportunities. Rather than accepting these challenges as personal failures, they encourage physicians to recognize the systemic barriers that exist and develop intentional strategies to overcome them. Shannon introduces the concept of strategic visibility, explaining why saying "yes" to every opportunity isn't enough. She shares actionable advice on building relationships with decision-makers, leading high-impact initiatives, communicating accomplishments with confidence, and understanding the difference between mentorship and sponsorship. The conversation also explores psychological safety, creating healthy leadership cultures, and why diverse leadership ultimately leads to better healthcare decisions for patients. Whether you're considering your first leadership role or looking to expand your influence within medicine, this episode offers practical tools, encouragement, and a powerful reminder that authentic leadership creates lasting change—for physicians, healthcare systems, and the patients they serve. You'll Hear How They: Discuss why women remain significantly underrepresented in executive healthcare leadership despite representing the majority of today's medical graduates. Explain how strategic visibility helps physicians position themselves for leadership opportunities by intentionally building relationships with key decision-makers. Share practical techniques for communicating accomplishments confidently while remaining authentic and collaborative. Explore the critical difference between mentorship and sponsorship, and why sponsorship is often the missing ingredient in advancing women leaders. Reveal leadership practices that build psychological safety, encourage healthy disagreement, and strengthen team performance. Discuss why physician advocacy and participation in organized medicine are essential for creating meaningful healthcare reform and improving patient care. Encourage physicians to embrace leadership without compromising their values, identity, or authenticity.

Healthcare companies are built to improve patients' lives. So why do so many prioritize shareholders over the people they're meant to serve?This week, Halle sits down with Eric Ries, author of Incorruptible, to unpack the rise of shareholder primacy, what it is, and why he believes it's at the root of many of society's biggest challenges.

He breaks down why safety is not just about firearms, why corporate training has to go beyond a video and a binder, and why communication is the first thing that breaks down in a crisis.Steve and Bill also get into workplace violence, church security, healthcare safety, disgruntled employees, automation, complacency, leadership, and why every organization needs to know who takes charge when seconds matter.Bill also shares the personal experiences that shaped his mission, including how getting punched by a disgruntled employee changed the way he thinks about complacency, and why training should build confidence without pretending the real world is calm.If you care about leadership, corporate safety, self-defense, workplace security, team communication, emergency preparedness, and building a company that protects its people, this episode is for you.Timestamps:[00:00] Trailer and Intro[01:59] What Fully Loaded Defense does[03:04] Bill's path into firearms training[07:50] Training everyday civilians[12:39] Church and corporate security[15:52] Healthcare and workplace safety[21:33] AI, layoffs, and disgruntled employees[24:02] Leadership during a crisis[27:15] De-escalation and communication[29:43] Why safety plans fail[31:46] Hands-on training under pressure[37:26] The danger of complacency[39:34] Bill's personal wake-up call[44:34] Why more people are training[46:05] Law enforcement and self-reliance[49:11] What's next for Fully Loaded Defense[50:30] Final thoughtsKey Takeaways:• You do not need a military or law enforcement background to become capable of protecting your home, family, or organization. ~Bill Praschak• “How you practice is how you play in the game.” ~Bill Praschak• If your safety training is just a video, a test, and a binder, your team is not actually prepared. ~Bill Praschak• Corporate safety is leadership training because someone has to know who takes charge when things go wrong. ~Bill Praschak• “Complacency is the death of every company.” ~Bill Praschak• When communication breaks down, everything else breaks down with it. ~Bill Praschak• “Less complacency, more self-reliance.” ~Steve Bon• “Their brand culture is as strong as their strategy.” ~Steve BonConnect with Bill Praschak:Website: https://www.fullyloadeddefensellc.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100091650174381&sk=aboutConnect with Don and Steve…Don Varady:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/don.varady/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/donvarady/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/don-varady-450896145 Steve Bon:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephenbon Instagram: https://instagram.com/stevebon8 Tune in to every episode on your favorite platform: Website: https://www.thefounderzlounge.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheFounderzLounge Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0Nurr4XjBE747qJ9Zjth0G Apple Music: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-founderz-lounge/id1461825349 The Founderz Lounge is Powered By:Clean Eatz:Website: https://cleaneatz.com/Bon's Eye Marketing:Website: https://bonseyeonline.com/

Healthcare leaders spend their careers designing better systems for patients, but the work looks different when they have had to move through those systems themselves. For Patrick Makarewich, a diagnosis of HPV-related head and neck cancer transformed familiar operational issues — scheduling, access, support services, staff flexibility, and communication — into deeply personal lessons. His experience reflects a larger reality in cancer care: HPV-linked oropharyngeal cancers have been rising, particularly among middle-aged men, making prevention, early detection, and patient-centered care urgent leadership concerns.How does a cancer diagnosis change the way a healthcare leader thinks about access, empathy, and the people behind every clinical process?On this episode of I Don't Care, host Dr. Kevin Stevenson speaks with Patrick Makarewich, FACHE, Clinical Practice Manager for ENT, Head and Neck Surgery at UT Southwestern Medical Center, about how surviving HPV-related head and neck cancer reshaped his approach to leadership. Their conversation moves from Patrick's diagnosis and treatment experience to clinic operations, workforce retention, generational leadership, patient access, and the cautious but promising role of AI in healthcare documentation and care delivery.What you'll learn…Lived experience can deepen healthcare leadership. Patrick explains that going through cancer treatment gave him insights into patient fear, scheduling friction, support needs, and survivorship that he could not have fully understood from an administrator's seat alone.Staff retention starts with daily leadership. He argues that the most important recruiting happens with the people already on the team, through flexibility, goal-setting, quality interactions, and support for employees' real lives outside work.AI may help reduce provider burden, but healthcare still needs human judgment. Patrick discusses UT Southwestern's creation of a Chief AI Officer role and describes how AI-supported note-taking could help providers with documentation while still requiring accuracy, oversight, and empathy.Patrick Makarewich, FACHE, is a transformational healthcare executive with deep experience in physician practice management, service line leadership, operational improvement, and patient-centered care. He currently leads Otolaryngology/Head and Neck Surgery clinic operations at UT Southwestern, overseeing a large multidisciplinary team while improving patient access, provider efficiency, and employee engagement. Across roles at UT Southwestern, Acclaim Physician Group, JPS Health Network, Children's Health, Cook Children's, Premier, hospice leadership, and Kaiser Permanente/SCPMG-related consulting roles, he has driven service line growth, Lean process improvement, revenue cycle optimization, workforce efficiency, accreditation success, and multimillion-dollar cost savings.

Knowing how much income you'll need in retirement is a key variable in determining how much you need to have saved before you stop working. But what many people believe about how spending progresses over the course of retirement is wrong. Host Robert Brokamp speaks with David Blanchett, the head of retirement research at Prudential Financial and a portfolio manager for PGIM, about what the data shows about real-life retirement spending. Topics covered include: -Why retirees may not need as much inflation protection as is commonly recommended-Healthcare expenses: the retirement wildcard-Why the reality of retirement spending could result in a higher withdrawal rate-Other factors that suggest retirees could withdraw more than the “4% rule” Host: Robert Brokamp, CFP®, EAGuest: David Blanchett: Ph.D., CFP®, CFAEngineer: Bart Shannon, Kristi Waterworth Disclosure: Advertisements are sponsored content and provided for informational purposes only.

Healthcare in America is stuck in a "sick care" model—we wait until people are already ill, then scramble to treat them. Dr. Gloria Winters, VP of Health Innovation at the YMCA of the USA, has spent the last year building something different: a community health operating system that pulls together your wearables, your medical records, and AI-driven insights into one place, so you actually know what to do with your health data instead of just staring at numbers. In this episode, she breaks down her "house" framework for the $5.6 trillion healthcare industry, why falls cost the country more than almost anything else, how she's working directly with HHS and the MAHA movement on preventive health policy, and why personal agency—not just data—is the missing piece in helping people actually change their behavior. If you've ever felt like your Apple Watch tells you everything except what you should actually do next, this conversation is for you. Key Takeaways:

In this episode, Terry McDonnell, DNP, RN, ACNP-BC, Senior Vice President & Chief Nurse Executive, Duke University Health System, and Vice Dean for Clinical Affairs, Duke University School of Nursing, discusses why nurses must play a central role in the design and implementation of AI in healthcare.

Mark Thornton looks at the growing strength of democratic socialism inside the Democratic Party and asks whether the United States may be entering another era of major party realignment. Drawing on Rothbard's analysis of long-term ideological change, Mark explains how younger voters, burdened by debt, unaffordable housing, healthcare, and education, are understandably angry—but are turning toward policies that helped create the crisis. Mark also examines how war, inflation, government intervention, and broken political promises are reshaping both major parties.On Side B, Thornton joins the Liberty and Finance podcast to discuss monetary disorder, central bank digital currencies, programmable money, AI-driven surveillance, the war on cash, and the need for education and resistance against the next monetary reset.Additional Resources"Keith Knight's Top Ten Problems with Democratic Socialism" (Human Action Podcast) with Bob Murphy: https://mises.org/MI_186_A"How Democratic Socialists of America Has Developed Into a Movement Party" by David Duhalde: https://mises.org/MI_186_B"The Myth of Democratic Socialism" by Murray Rothbard: https://mises.org/MI_186_C"How Democratic Socialism Created California's Housing Crisis" by Chris Calton: https://mises.org/MI_186_D"Democratic Socialism IS Totalitarianism" by Bill Anderson: https://mises.org/MI_186_E"How to Fix the Economics of Healthcare" by Bob Murphy: https://mises.org/MI_186_F2026 is the Year of Rothbard—Murray's 100th birthday—and we're celebrating by giving away free copies of The Origins of the Federal Reserve through July 31.

In this special episode, HexAI producer Brent Phillips steps behind the microphone to speak with Sean McGunigal, Epic Software's Software Development Lead for AI Research and Development. Drawing from his own daily experience navigating healthcare information management systems at a hospital, Brent guides a technical conversation on the immense role that enterprise software architectures like Epic play in orchestrating, optimizing, and embedding artificial intelligence directly into clinical workflows across global health systems.Bridging the gap between frontier software engineering and clinical realities, Sean and Brent discuss Epic's AI development pipeline while anchoring the conversation around Epic's technical vision where utility, explainability, and trust are paramount. Sean details how Epic's proprietary ambient AI framework, Chart with Art, seamlessly ingests and parses acoustic conversational data to generate structured documentation, effectively alleviating cognitive burden and clinical friction so medical professionals can prioritize hands-on patient care. Sean emphasizes that to achieve user adoption, Epic's generative summaries are rigidly tied to programmatic data lineage and granular citations, forcing black-box models to prove their clinical outputs.Aligning with the mission of the University of Pittsburgh's Health and Explainable AI Research Laboratory and Pitt's Computational Pathology and AI Center of Excellence (CPACE), the episode highlights Epic's commitment to helping advance and democratize ethical and responsible AI engineering through open-source frameworks and massive data initiatives. Sean points to Nebula, Epic's cloud-native platform deployed in Microsoft Azure, which provides a high-throughput, horizontally scalable infrastructure allowing health networks to securely deploy LLMs. Furthermore, he underscores Epic's breakthroughs with Cosmos, their multi-institution de-identified dataset, and Curiosity, Epic's custom-trained Medical Language Model designed to predict patient clinical events using autoregressive, next-token intelligence. By exploring the orchestration of complex agentic AI workflows, runtime evaluation harnesses, and cross-platform communication protocols, Sean closes the episode with a call to action for researchers to get involved and work more closely around safely advancing the frontiers of computational medicine.

Our analysts Andrew Sheets and Mark Schmidt unpack why U.S. healthcare feels so expensive and the potential impacts of rising hospital costs.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Andrew Sheets: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Andrew Sheets, Global Head of Fixed Income Research at Morgan Stanley. Mark Schmidt: And I'm Mark Schmidt, Head of Municipal Strategy at Morgan Stanley. Andrew Sheets: And today on the program, a discussion into one of the biggest mysteries in one of the biggest sectors of the economy. We're talking about healthcare costs. It's Friday, July 17th at 2pm in London. Mark Schmidt: At 9am in New York. Andrew Sheets: So, we're talking today about healthcare, which represents roughly a fifth of the U.S. economy, the bulk of job creation over the last several years, and in my view, honestly, one of the biggest inflation paradoxes that we see in the market. On the one hand, the high cost of healthcare is taken as a given, and it's something that many Americans still struggle with financially. But if you look at the official inflation data in the U.S., healthcare costs have been lower than normal, and that's been true now for a number of years. So, what's going on? How do we tie this together? And Mark, you just wrote a report that tries to do exactly that. So, what did you hope to accomplish with this report? Mark Schmidt: You're absolutely right. It's hard to underline enough just how large healthcare is to the U.S. economy overall. Americans spend nearly $6 trillion on healthcare. That's more than the GDP of the entire country of Germany. And if we think about prices, Americans pay more. A knee replacement, for example, costs $25,000 in the United States. That same procedure costs just $6,000 in France. Common heart treatments that would cost $3,000 in Germany or $10,000 in Australia cost $34,000 in the U.S. It also matters for everyone's local community. Healthcare jobs have been growing twice as fast as the rate of job growth in the economy overall. And those are good jobs. They pay above average wages. For many Americans these days, the most secure path to the middle class is a career in healthcare. Now, this may seem a little bit arcane, but it probably hits close to your portfolio as well. Earlier in the year, when we took a look at how equity separately managed accounts invest, they typically have a core overweight to healthcare. And even though American prices may seem like an American issue, many of the largest and most profitable healthcare companies in the world are actually headquartered in Europe. So, whether you're sitting in New York or sitting in London, the price of American healthcare probably matters to you. But as you noted, Andrew, it does feel like a paradox because although Americans cite healthcare costs as one of their top concerns, and although healthcare spending is growing at 6 percent a year or more, the official inflation data says that healthcare prices are in check. And at one point earlier in the year, healthcare inflation, according to official data, even dipped below 3 percent. It just didn't make a lot of sense, and that's why we got together with our colleagues across equities, fixed income research, public policy, and economics to dig into what was actually going on. Andrew Sheets: So, Mark, let's dig right into that. I mean, it seems like a perfect encapsulation of the so-called Main Street versus Wall Street perception of the economy. So, what's going on? How does one kind of square those two numbers? Mark Schmidt: The easiest way to understand it is that you can't walk through a grocery store and figure out the price of a knee replacement. And that's true both for you and me. It's also true for the government. They have to survey hospitals and health insurance companies. The trouble is that the prices that health insurance companies pay hospitals, well, those are trade secrets. So, at any given point in time, even for the best government economists, it's not entirely clear what the price trends are. And that's why when you look at the official data, healthcare inflation typically has relatively lumpy jumps in the series. You could see several months of 0.1 or 0.2 percent official growth in healthcare inflation. Or as earlier this week, you could see certain categories jump to 0.4 or even 0.8. Andrew Sheets: Another element, Mark, that you talked about in the report is that people are also consuming more healthcare. So, talk a little bit about that. How that factors into this dynamic, and again, is that just going to be the new normal as the population ages and we tend to spend more on healthcare as we get older? Mark Schmidt: That's right. The good news is that we're living longer lives. The bad news is that means that we have more chronic healthcare conditions to deal with. The good news is that more procedures can be done in outpatient settings, and those, generally speaking, are cheaper. The bad news is that inpatient care, inpatient prices go up as the complexity of procedures that actually happen in a hospital setting increase significantly. When you balance it all out, it's a situation where, thankfully, the United States and most Americans have the means and the wealth to pay more for healthcare. The flip side of that is that they are paying more for healthcare, and that's why we think that the recent softness in healthcare inflation is actually too good to be true. Andrew Sheets: Something that jumped out at me from this report, Mark, was just how important hospitals are in this equation. And the experience of the patient and the experience of the hospital can be different economically. And that difference can also matter for how this shows up in official inflation and government statistics.So, you know, it would be helpful maybe just to walk the listener through. If I go into the hospital and I need knee surgery. You know, how does that look like from my perspective in terms of paying for it, assuming I have health insurance through my employer? How could that look like to the hospital? And how could that look like coming out the other end into the official government statistics? Mark Schmidt: Well, of course, Andrew, the first thing that you do when you break your leg is you call six hospitals and shop around for the cheapest price, right? Andrew Sheets: [Laughs] Of course. Mark Schmidt: So that's actually the problem because when you get care, you're not in a place to ask about the price. And frankly, even if you asked your doctor or nurse what the price is, they probably wouldn't know. Not only is it not their job to know the price, but all of those negotiations happen after the fact – with the prices that the insurance companies negotiate with the hospitals. After COVID, hospitals had a lot more costs to spread out among the people who were coming in the door, and so they raised prices across the board, not just for procedures that were related to respiratory illness. Naturally, insurance companies noticed that, and they started to push back. So long after you get a cast for your broken leg – and by the way, I wish you a speedy recovery – insurance companies end up going back and forth negotiating with your doctors for exactly how much they should pay you. And although these prices were loosely set well before you walked in the door, the exact way it gets billed and coded? Well, let's just say there's a lot of back and forth. For a well-run hospital, the cost of talking to and ultimately getting reimbursement from your insurance company, that alone could be 2 to 4 percent of revenue. And in especially complex cases, that whole negotiation can eat up 5 to 7 percent of the total bill. You're also right to flag that hospitals really are still the central point of the U.S. healthcare system. Americans spend $2 trillion in a hospital setting. And hospitals overwhelmingly coordinate care for both primary, specialty, and pharmacy services. Andrew Sheets: Mark, another issue I wanted to ask you about was the Affordable Care Act, Medicare, Medicaid, and how those programs fit into the story? Mark Schmidt: The One Big Beautiful Bill Act included a variety of measures to slow the overall growth rate of healthcare. Now, for all the reasons we just discussed, that's probably warranted. The Affordable Care Act is another wrinkle. Enhanced subsidies, which were already set to expire – did in fact expire at the end of last year. And as a result, more Americans are now uninsured. It remains to be seen how that impacts overall costs. In the United States, when you have a health emergency, a hospital is legally obligated to treat you because of a 1990s law called EMTALA. Even if you can't pay, the system eventually does. Historically, uncompensated care costs have been passed on to individuals and companies with insurance. For now, however, it remains to be seen whether these changes in law and in the overall number of people with insurance will cause healthcare prices to rise or fall. Andrew Sheets: And Mark, just for the broad-based implications of this, right? It's fair to say that in any health insurance system, there are some people who consume a lot more healthcare. They're unhealthy or they're unlucky. And there are some who consume a lot less. And, you know, this is something where that overall coverage question matters. Because if you have things that reduce the number of otherwise healthy people who are in those healthcare pools, it can raise the cost for everybody else. Those people who were in some ways subsidizing the higher consumers of healthcare are no longer there. Is that a fair way to frame it, do you think? And are there potential changes given some of these legislative actions that could lead to changes of what the pool looks like – and what overall costs could look like? Mark Schmidt: That's a great point. And healthcare is probably the only part of our economy where you would say, "Thank goodness I did not get my money's worth." As we think about it… Andrew Sheets: [Laughs] Very true. Very true. Mark Schmidt: As we think about it, most young and healthy people are going to be paying more for their health insurance than they receive in healthcare. Again, that's a good thing. Because American healthcare prices are so much higher than anywhere else in the world, paying in more than you get back? Well, that hits the wallet harder in America than it does in other countries. And that's why for many people – choice – choosing how much health insurance to have and how much to pay for it, really is central to keeping the American economy dynamic. The flip side, however, is that as Americans get older, more people have Medicare. Now, Medicare is pretty good if you have it. But the catch is that Medicare prices, according to most independent estimates, do not fully reimburse for the cost of care. So, as more seniors take up more beds in a hospital, that means that commercial prices, the prices for people who have private insurance through their employer, are likely to rise even faster. Andrew Sheets: So, Mark, I think a good place to close it out and kind of bring this all together is a really important conclusion of this report – is that hospitals have been absorbing a number of these rising costs of healthcare through lower margins for the hospital. And that has resulted in lower ultimate inflation because the inflation is measured out the other side, out ultimately what the hospital earns. And if you could just maybe talk a little bit more about that. To what extent have those margins been compressed? And what that might mean for things going forward? Mark Schmidt: That's right. We dug into the finances for hundreds of not-for-profit hospitals in the United States. They are facing higher costs and shrinking margins. Historically, hospitals have partially passed on expense increases of this magnitude. Now, in their conversations with insurance companies, the biggest benchmark setting of prices happens once every two to three years. So, we're not going to see hospital prices show up in the inflation data overnight. But when we look at hospitals across the country, their budget information and their guidance is consistent with firming prices. Andrew Sheets: Great. Thank you so much, Mark. I've really enjoyed the conversation. Mark Schmidt: Thanks for having me, Andrew. Andrew Sheets: And thank you for listening.

Eric Criscuolo, Market Strategist at the NYSE, reviews a market increasingly defined by sharp sector rotations as AI-related semiconductor and memory stocks pulled back after massive gains earlier this year. Weakness in semis contrasted with renewed strength in hyperscalers, improving performance from software, and catch-up rallies across Healthcare and Financials. Meanwhile, escalating tensions involving Iran pushed oil prices higher and helped keep longer-term Treasury yields elevated despite cooler inflation data.

In this episode, Dave Estorge, vice president of rural strategy at FMOL Health, shares how building authentic relationships with rural hospitals, improving care coordination, and expanding transfer collaboration are strengthening access to care. He also discusses why humility, trust, and mission-driven leadership are essential to supporting rural communities and improving patient outcomes.

Critterz was one of the first feature films built primarily with AI, but OpenAI abruptly shut down Sora, the very tool its director was relying on. Nik Kleverov, Chief Creative Officer of Native Foreign, joins Rapid Response from the Cannes Lions festival to make the case for why AI isn't killing Hollywood, it's about to reinvent it. He breaks down why 2026 is year zero for mass adoption of AI in the film industry, and why human talent is more in demand than ever when great storytelling is the goal. Kleverov also confronts the darker side of the technology: deepfakes, scams, and the blurring line between real and generated, and offers a surprising possible solution.Visit the Rapid Response website here: https://www.rapidresponseshow.com/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome back to a special encore presentation of Turn on the Lights! As we continue our transition series, our new host, Dr. Philip, is revisiting some of the most impactful conversations from the archives. For this episode, he selected a standout discussion with Dr. Michelle Schreiber and Brenna Rabel, exploring how quality measures are developed, adopted, and implemented across Medicare and Medicaid programs. Summary: How do we decide what “good care” looks like, and who gets to choose the scorecard? In this episode of Turn on the Lights, Kedar Mate speaks with Dr. Michelle Schreiber of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and Brenna Rabel of Battelle about how quality measures are developed, adopted, and applied across Medicare and Medicaid programs. They explore why measurement is essential for accountability, patient choice, and improvement, while also acknowledging its vulnerability to politics, feasibility constraints, and “teaching to the test.” Using diabetes and sepsis as examples, they explain how performance cutoffs are established, why “all-or-none” measures often face resistance, and what makes complex measures difficult to report and score. The conversation also addresses efforts to reduce reporting burden, including CMS's shift from broader MIPS reporting toward MIPS Value Pathways and the expansion of digital quality measurement through FHIR-enabled eCQMs. They conclude with a forward-looking discussion on how artificial intelligence could reduce manual chart abstraction and advance quality measurement, particularly as patient-reported outcomes play a larger role in shaping the future of value-based care. Tune in to hear how measures shape what health systems prioritize, what gets improved, and what “value” could look like in the future.
