Out of Patients with Matthew Zachary
Out of Patients with Matthew Zachary
Matthew Zachary is the healthcare policy love child of Jon Stewart, Howard Stern, Thomas Paine, Ralph Nader, and Jerry Seinfeld. He has 19 years of receipts to prove it. Editorially independent. Answerable to no one. What started as The Stupid Cancer Show in 2007 became Out of Patients. The first online health podcast in America, predating the medium itself. Zachary survived brain cancer at 21, built the young adult cancer movement from scratch, and spent two decades channeling patient rage into something the system never saw coming. Now he is marching into Washington. Out of Patients goes where the comfortable shows will not. Politics. Healthcare policy. Economics. Institutional accountability. Consumer protection. The forces shaping what 330 million Americans can access, afford, and survive. Battle-scarred patients. Exhausted caregivers. Rare insiders brave enough to name what is killing us. And the occasional elected official about to find out what an organized patient constituency actually looks like. This is the show that started the conversation America is still not ready to finish.

Help me PharmD, You're My Only Hope

Help me PharmD, You're My Only Hope

Today's modern-day pharmacist faces very different challenges, especially given America's rural health crisis. Everything from access and resourcing to burnout and pricing, patients are more dependent than ever on the relationship with their local pharmacist. Joining Matthew on today's episode is Eddilisa Martin, PharmD, owner & CEO, and Clara Health/M&B Sciences. She is the first in her family to graduate from college and the first African-American to receive a PharmD from the University of Oklahoma's College of Pharmacy. Having spent over 25 years in the life science industry, including 20 years as a national clinical executive for the life science sector, Eddilisa shares her extraordinary story and unique perspectives on navigating the nonsense of pharmacy benefits and COA assistance and preauthorizations and syllables that drive us crazy. Enjoy the show.
