Weight loss drugs continue to generate buzz... and lots of spending! Obesity is a serious public health issue, but GLP-1s for all isn't the answer. Quizzify Founder and CEO Al Lewis 🇺🇦 joined #MTVA to discuss how patient education can help reduce healthcare overconsumption. We explore how healthcare illiteracy contributes to waste, and Al shares some trivia facts and tips for a productive doctor's visit. We hope you have as much fun listening to this episode of #MTVAUnscripted as we did recording with Al! 🎧 Tune in here >> https://lnkd.in/es8-eD8b Lisa Trumble John Rodis, MD Steve Schutzer, MD Laura Wadsten #MovingtoValueAlliance #Healthcare #HealthcarePodcast #Podcast #ValueBasedCare #HealthcareValue #TransformingHealthcare #HealthcareLiteracy #Quizzify #PatientEducation #Overconsumption #WeightLossDrugs #GLP1s #Nutrition #Wellness

“It’s a small amount of individuals that actually can move a market, and I am optimistic that we’re starting to reach the point where there's enough people that are informed and have eyes on, that at least the most egregious games stop being feasible.” Moving to Value Alliance is thrilled to share this conversation with the incredible Stacey Richter! As host of the award-winning Relentless Health Value Podcast, Stacey is usually the one asking questions – and we’re honored she let us turn the tables for the latest episode of the #MTVAUnscripted podcast! We at MTVA are glass half-full🥛 people, and Stacey shares several bright spots of hope for the movement to #value in health care. “If you look at local markets, which is actually where health care happens and also where change happens, and you start looking at what’s going on in some of these more forward-thinking places, it is inspiring and there’s real stuff going on.” Tune in to learn more about the motivation behind the important work Stacey does, and why she and MTVA make the choice to be optimistic!

We're losing 1.5 independent pharmacies every day in 2024 Around 46% of communities across the country are "pharmacy deserts" In some towns, a single PBM controls the market Vertically-consolidated #PBMs have made it incredibly difficult for local, independent pharmacies to stay afloat. But things are starting to look up, according to Matthew Seiler, R.N., CIPM, thanks to bipartisan support for PBM reforms and enhanced antitrust enforcement. Just TODAY, the Federal Trade Commission sued the Big 3 PBMs for inflating insulin prices with anticompetitive tactics (https://lnkd.in/ekdA45j4)! Matt is General Counsel for National Community Pharmacists Association (NCPA), and special guest on the latest episode of #MTVAUnscripted! For Part 4 of our #PBMProblems series, Matt joined #MTVA Board Members Steve Schutzer, MD and John Rodis, MD and Executive Director Laura Wadsten to discuss the pressures facing independent pharmacists, where the #ConsumerWelfareStandard went wrong, and NCPA's efforts to protect community pharmacies from the threats of PBMs and consolidation.
