episode CVS Settles Overbilling Medicaid for Insulin cover

Beskrivelse

CVS is paying $36.5 million to settle claims it overbilled Medicaid for insulin over a decade, refilling prescriptions early or exceeding doses to bill for more than medically needed—money meant for patient care instead ended up lining corporate pockets. Twenty-five million goes back to state Medicaid programs across 37 states, showing a united front against misuse of public funds, and raising broader questions about healthcare billing ethics.

A Life Lost, A System Stalled

A year after Akshay Gupta, a gifted tech innovator working to help seniors with balance, was fatally stabbed on a bus in Austin, his family in India still battles crushing grief and unanswered questions. The suspect, Deepak Kandel, admitted to the attack—claiming Gupta looked like his late uncle—but has been deemed legally incompetent due to severe mental illness, stalling justice. Akshay’s brother called him a rare soul—charismatic, kind, and generous—whose sudden, random death leaves a void. As Kandel’s stay at a mental hospital extends, the family fights for systemic change, desperate to prevent other families from enduring this agonizing uncertainty and lack of closure.

Texas App Age Law Faces Supreme Court Challenge

Texas just passed a law requiring app stores to verify users’ ages before downloads, sparking a high-stakes legal battle.

Meanwhile, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton defends the law as essential for protecting kids online. With the Supreme Court’s summer recess looming, the fate of this digital privacy showdown hangs in the balance. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

episode Taser Use in Arrest Leads to Death cover

Taser Use in Arrest Leads to Death

In North Austin, a 32-year-old man died after police used a Taser during his arrest—following reports of erratic behavior and a prowler call where he was found bleeding. Officers say he resisted by pulling his hands under his body, prompting the use of force; he became unresponsive after being handcuffed. Seven officers are on administrative leave as criminal and administrative investigations unfold, with body cam, Ring footage, and 911 audio released. Toxicology results are pending, and experts are divided on whether force was justified. Trumble, a former football star turned construction worker, is remembered by his family as a kind man. Authorities urge anyone with information to come forward. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
