Last Month In Healthcare is officially a video podcast! Each month, producer Nathaniel joins me to discuss the previous month's podcasts, headlines, and listener-submitted questions.


This episode covers healthcare news from March 2025, including:

- Marty Makary getting confirmed to lead the FDA

- The HHS restructuring, including 10,000 job cuts

- Texas's response to the MAHA commission

- Operation Stork Speed, aiming to make baby formula safer and healthier

- The potential ban on soda/candy for those on food stamps

- Increasing cybersecurity risks for healthcare providers


And, we play a game of "AI Company, Healthcare Company, or Metal Band?"
