Show 5 - Heart Month Dr Benjamin Levine | Medicaid 1115 Waiver In-Depth Discussion The Human Side of Healthcare

    • Mental Health

February is Heart Month and we kick it off with one of the premier cardiologists in the DFW Metroplex, Dr. Benjamin Levine of Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital and UT Southwestern Medical school. Dr. Levine is the founder and Director of the Institute for Exercise and Environmental Medicine (IEEM) at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas where he also holds the S. Finley Ewing Chair for Wellness and the Harry S. Moss Heart Chair for Cardiovascular Research. His degrees are from Brown University and Harvard Medical School.
Next, Stephen Love facilitates an in-depth discussion about the impending Medicaid 1115 Waiver, which is set to expire next legislative session and will create a multi-billion dollar shortfall that will have to be picked up by Texas taxpayers. This is a huge looming issue that you likely haven't heard about, but need to be aware. We are joined by Charles Smith, a consultant and advisor who helped write the current Waiver, State Senator Nathan Johnson of Dallas, and Richard Carter, CEO of Hunt Regional Healthcare in Greenville.
The radio program, hosted by DFWHC President/CEO Stephen Love and KRLD’s Thomas Miller, will run throughout 2020 on Sunday’s from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. CST on KRLD-1080-AM Dallas, Texas or listen to KRLD live on Radio.com from anywhere in the world.
