This week's questions:

2:51 With Verma picked to head CMS, can you discuss her work on the Healthy Indiana Program? Specifically I'm curious about having Medicaid recipients pay premiums or else being locked out of coverage.

7:51 Could turmeric be used as an effective anti-inflammatory treatment? What does the research say?

9:53 I worked with a doctor in an ER who didn't know whether a patient had a PPO or an HMO based on their insurance card. Is it common for doctors not to know a lot about their patient's insurance plans?

21:45 are there any studies on the effects of listening to music and doing homework/work? does it help or harm concentration?
23:18 What is your opinion on electronic medical record systems?
24:51 Have there been any comprehensive meta analyses on nutritional science studies? There are so many different stories being reported, and the actual results are hard to find/understand
26:36 What do you think is the most widespread or worst health myth that people should stop believing?
27:30 What do you do when a patient has symptoms, and neurological testing says "Yes, there's physical evidence off this" but you've tested for both horses and zebras, but nothing comes back conclusive?
