The Allegations: Rosen Law Firm is Investigating the Allegations that Elevance Health, Inc. (NYSE: ELV) Misled Investors Regarding its Business Operations.
According to the lawsuit, defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that, with the Medicaid redetermination process nearly complete, defendants represented to investors that they were closely monitoring cost trends associated with the redetermination process and that the premium rates Elevance was negotiating with states were sufficient to address the risk and cost profiles of those patients staying on Medicaid programs. While defendants acknowledged that Medicaid expenses were rising, they repeatedly assured investors that this was adequately reflected in Elevance's guidance for the year. These representations were materially false or misleading. In truth, the redeterminations were causing the acuity and utilization of Elevance's Medicaid members to rise significantly, as the members being removed from Medicaid programs were, on average, healthier than those who remained eligible for the programs. This shift was occurring to a degree that was not reflected in Elevance's rate negotiations with the states or in its financial guidance for 2024. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
What Now: You may be eligible to participate in the class action against Elevance Health, Inc. Shareholders who want to serve as lead plaintiff for the class must file their motions with the court by July 11, 2025. A lead plaintiff is a representative party who acts on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. You do not have to participate in the case to be eligible for a recovery. If you choose to take no action, you can remain an absent class member. For more information, click here.

A woman was told she had Alzheimer's 13 years ago. Now she's walking the width of the U.S. after reversing her illness
Judy Benjamin was only 67 when she was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, the devastating disease her mother and several uncles all suffered from. The symptoms started slowly; a forgotten phone number, trouble reading the newspaper. But Benjamin soon found reason to panic after a brain scan showed damage and amyloid plaque build-up — hallmarks of Alzheimer's, the progressive neurodegenerative disorder that typically affects memory, thinking, and behavior. Now 81, Benjamin is in the midst of an epic cross-country walk to prove to herself, and others, that reversal of Alzheimer's symptoms is possible thanks to a specific, science-backed protocol — and she's living proof. Having started her journey April 5 in San Diego, her hopes to make it to Saint Augustine, Florida, by October 5. She's being accompanied by a support team, and a film crew shooting footage for a documentary. This week she celebrated hitting 1,000 miles. 'I've been really thrilled with the people I've met along the way,' Benjamin told The Independent . 'Everyone knows someone with Alzheimer's and they're very interested in my story because I reversed my cognitive decline by radically changing my life.' Getting to this point took a series of small steps and big ones as Benjamin navigated her diagnosis. Her symptoms started shortly after her own mother died of the disease 20 years after her initial diagnosis. "I was working overseas and started to get really worried because I couldn't remember things — even my own phone number or locker combination," she recalled to Fox News Digital. "I got lost driving, when I'm always really good about direction." Scans of Benjamin's brain showed lots of amyloid plaque — proteins that, when built up on the brain, can result in nerve cell death — and damage to the right and left parietal areas of her brain. Located behind the brain's frontal lobe, the parietal lobe helps with location awareness and processes your sense of touch, according to the Cleveland Clinic. "I knew that it was going downhill really quickly, and I was extremely depressed and distressed about that,' she said. In an attempt to chart a new path forward, Benjamin met with Dr. Dale Bredesen at a friend's urging. Bredesen, an internationally recognized expert in the mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases and the Chief Science Officer of Apollo Health, had been developing a protocol to reverse the signs and symptoms of Alzheimer's but had yet to test it on a patient. He's long been a believer that Alzheimer's isn't just preventable — it's reversible, too. So, Benjamin seeking treatment at the time Bredesen was looking for a 'patient zero' was kismet. Brededsen recalled Benjamin taking 'copious notes' during her first appointment due to her poor memory. He had Benjamin follow his ReCODE (for 'reversal of cognitive decline') protocol, which included changes to Benjamin's diet and exercise routine, as well as making adjustments to her sleep habits and starting meditation. As Bredesen explained to The Independent about ReCODE: 'The bottom line is that it is a personalized, precision medicine protocol that addresses the drivers specific to each person (so it is based on each person's lab results), and these drivers are in three major groups —energetics (blood flow, oxygenation, etc.), inflammation (from any of many different causes), and toxicity (inorganics, organics, and biotoxins) — and three lesser groups — trophic support (hormones, nutrients, and growth factors), neurotransmitters (such as acetylcholine, which is needed for memory), and stress.' Bredesen noted, too, that despite published documentation of the ways in which cognitive decline can be reversed, the vast majority of people remain unaware that it is often possible. Treatment is also more likely to be effective if started early on. He's documented his research in several books, including The End of Alzheimer's and The Ageless Brain. Together, the pair have worked to maintain her progress. She's become a brain health coach and a yoga instructor, and, as Bredesen described her, 'a survivor of cognitive decline, and a remarkable role model for anyone interested in healthy aging.' 'Very very few people are capable of walking 3000 miles, from coast to coast. But to have someone doing it who is 81 years old, and has reversed her cognitive decline after a diagnosis of early Alzheimer's in 2012, is truly historic,' Bredesen told The Independent. 'She is doing something that I could not do, nor could most of the people I know. She is truly an inspiration.' Still, Benjamin's message is simple — offering the hope that cognitive decline can be prevented and reversed. 'That is really the purpose of my journey,' she told The Independent. 'And also to show that you can be 81 years old and walk all this way one step at a time.'

Trump threatens Senate Republicans who defy him as Elon Musk attacks ‘utterly insane' megabill
President Donald Trump threatened Senate Republicans who defy him and his 'Big, Beautiful Bill' as the legislation cleared a key test vote in a dramatic night in the upper chamber of Congress. After negotiations dragged on for hours Saturday evening, the Senate voted 51 to 49 to open a debate on the legislation, moving one step closer to landing the bill on Trump's desk by his self-imposed Fourth of July deadline. Trump targeted Republican Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina, who voted against opening the debate after he argued the package would 'result in tens of billions of dollars in lost funding' for his state. The president said 'numerous people have come forward wanting to run' in a primary election against Tillis, Trump wrote on Truth Social after returning to the White House to watch senators scramble for votes. 'I will be meeting with them over the coming weeks, looking for someone who will properly represent the Great People of North Carolina,' Trump said. Before votes were underway, Trump's 'first buddy' Elon Musk momentarily re-entered politics when he attacked the bill as 'utterly insane and destructive' in a post on X. The world's wealthiest man said the bill will 'destroy millions of jobs in America and cause immense strategic harm to our country' and give 'handouts to industries of the past while severely damaging industries of the future.' The motion to proceed with the legislation — which includes sweeping spending cuts to pay for Trump's tax cuts he signed into law in 2017, as well as increased spending for the military, oil exploration, and immigration enforcement — came down to the wire, as Vice President JD Vance showed up at the last moment in the event of a tie break. Senate Republicans scrambled for sufficient support to pass the motion to proceed with votes on the mammoth bill. Final text for the sprawling 940-page bill was released Friday evening. Budget analysts predict the bill — if approved — could explode the national debt by more than $4 trillion. The bill's tax cuts would amount to $4.5 trillion in lost revenue, according to the nonpartisan Joint Committee on Taxation. If the bill does pass the Senate, it will return to the House of Representatives, which passed it last month. But plenty of House Republicans have objected to the Senate's changes, teeing up yet another legislative battle over Trump's massive bill. Trump lobbied senators on Saturday while playing golf with Senators Rand Paul of Kentucky and Lindsey Graham of South Carolina. Democratic Senate Leader Chuck Schumer of New York said Democrats would object to the bill moving forward without the text being read on the Senate floor. 'We will be here all night if that's what it takes to read it,' he said Saturday. Reading the nearly 1,000-page bill on the floor is estimated to take 15 hours. Republicans, who have 53 seats in the Senate, plan to pass the bill using the process of budget reconciliation. That would allow them to sidestep a filibuster from Democrats as long as the legislation relates to the budget. For the past week, the Senate parliamentarian's office has issued advisories about which parts do not comply with the rules of reconciliation. The biggest sticking point was major changes to Medicaid, with Republicans proposing the steepest cuts to the federal healthcare program in history. The legislation would add work requirements for certain Medicaid recipients and limit how much money states can tax health care providers like hospitals and nursing homes to raise money for Medicaid. But the American Hospital Association said this would devastate rural hospitals that rely on Medicaid dollars. The parliamentarian removed the provider tax provision, but the new version of the bill simply delays when the cap goes into effect. Hospitals in House Speaker Mike Johnson's home state of Louisiana were compelled to write to him Saturday to warn that the Medicaid cuts 'would be historic in their devastation.' Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon, the top Democrat on the Senate Finance Committee, also warned that the bill would cut funding for Medicaid by $930 billion, citing an upcoming Congressional Budget Office analysis. Wyden accused Republican senators of pushing a 'rushed and reckless' process. 'Just as before, these cruel cuts to Americans' health care will strike a mortal blow to rural health care, and threaten the health and safety of kids, seniors, Americans with disabilities, and working families across the country,' he wrote. Tillis, who hails from a state with a large number of rural hospitals and that expanded Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act in 2023, said he was a 'no' on the motion to proceed because of Medicaid. 'It will cause a lot of people to have to be moved off of Medicaid,' he told The Independent Friday evening. 'It's just inescapable. The price tag's too high.' Tillis, who is up for re-election in 2028, outlined his opposition to the bill again on Saturday, saying in a statement that the bill would 'result in tens of billions of dollars in lost funding' for his state, including hospitals and rural communities. 'This will force the state to make painful decisions like eliminating Medicaid coverage for hundreds of thousands in the expansion population, and even reducing critical services for those in the traditional Medicaid population,' he added. The bill would see Trump gain some $350 billion to pursue his anti-immigration agenda, including $46 billion for the U.S.– Mexico border wall and another $45 billion to build capacity to detain another 100,000 people in immigration detention centers. In order to meet his goal of deporting some 1 million people per year, the bill would also allocate money to hire 10,000 Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers, with $10,000 signing bonuses and a surge of border patrol agents. The legislation, which contains roughly $3.8 trillion in tax cuts, would extend the 2017 cuts that Trump signed into law during his first administration, which are set to expire at the end of the year. The existing tax rates and brackets would become permanent under the bill. The bill also would include some measures Trump campaigned on, including up to $25,000 in deductions on tipped wages and $12,500 for overtime pay through 2028. Americans who receive food stamps through the Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program, or SNAP, would face new 'hardship' under the current legislation as billions would be slashed from the scheme, advocacy groups warn. The bill increases the age at which 'able-bodied' adults without dependent children must work to receive food assistance from 54 to 64 years old, the year before many seniors become eligible for Social Security and Medicare. It also would mandate that parents with children 14 and older must work at least 20 hours per week to receive SNAP benefits. 'Already, states like Texas have opted out of programs like Summer EBT and denying thousands of children critical food benefits during the summer because of concerns over state obligations to cover SNAP benefit costs,' the Food Research and Action Center warned. 'It's unimaginable the number of children who would miss out on the nutrition they need if this harmful bill is passed.' Rep. Angie Craig of Minnesota, the ranking Democrat on the House Agriculture Committee, previously told The Independent that changes to SNAP in the House version of the bill 'may be one of the most egregious items in the entire markup.'

Why Teens Wear Hoodies When It's Hot Revisited
Close-up of a young hipster dressed in a sweatshirt and jeans sitting sad in a skate park and ... More holding a skateboard Three years ago I penned a piece asking why teens wear hoodies in the summer heat and explored whether science could explain it. It was inspired by my curiosity, scientific background and being a father of teenage boy. He and his friend group are certainly fans of the practice. In that article, I tried to approach the topic from an objective, scientific and compassionate perspective. Anchoring to an essay by Ian Lecklitner in Mel Magazine titled, 'Stop Bagging on People Who Wear Hoodies During Summer," I explored reasons such as UV or insect protection, body image concerns, emotional comfort (the weighted blanket effect) and availability of pockets. Though all plausible, it still lacked enough scientific backing for my taster, yet my curiosity remained. As I continued to explore the scientific literature, additional scientific data caught my eye. As noted previously, there is already a robust library of studies on weighted blankets as a support mechanism for people with insomnia, on the autism spectrum, or dealing with stress. A Harvard press release noted, 'The blankets are supposed to work much the same way tight swaddling helps newborns feel snug and secure so they can doze off more quickly. The blanket basically simulates a comforting hug, in theory helping to calm and settle the nervous system.' Ledklitner argued that hoodies serve in a similar fashion for teens. Weighted blankets on display in a Saatva mattress showroom in New York, Dec. 4, 2024. (AP Photo/Mary ... More Conlon) While my son's generation wears regular hoodies, there is a actually a weighted hoodie market out there too. Writing on the website Annabelle Denmark wrote, 'Numerous studies underscore the positive effects of even weight distribution on adults dealing with neurodivergence, anxiety, or complex trauma. This practice has been shown to elevate serotonin levels, fostering a sense of relaxation, grounding, and improved focus.' However, I wanted to dig deeper than the weighted hoodies and emotional support theory. Dr. Vanessa Beck at the University of Leicester wrote an excellent essay dismantling false narratives about teens who wear hoodies. She argued, 'Whilst some of these characteristics (poverty, ethnicity, etc.) might conform to the stereotype of the hooded youth, there are far broader issues at stake here that require governmental and societal attention.' Her writing resonated with me as the father of a respectful, intelligent kid who may be stereotyped while wearing a black hoodie. Madhumanti Majumdar is a psychologist and special needs educator. In 2024, she documented her discussions with teens about wearing hoodies in a blog titled, 'The Hoodie Culture: Fighting insecurities and vulnerabilities one hoodie at a time.' Her findings align with observations that any parent of a teenager understands. These include peer culture, confidence, and personal perspective. She stated, 'The recurring words I heard — like 'safety net,' 'secure,' 'vulnerable,' 'comfortable,' and 'feeling confident' — left me astonished. It's remarkable how wearing a hoodie can evoke such deep feelings and emotions!' Like my first foray into this topic, she came away with a new perspective. However, the weather and climate scientist in me still needed more because my non-scientific, speculative observations reveal that it is mostly teen boys that seem to wear hoodies during the summer or on hot days. A 2020 study published in the Journal of the Korean Society of Clothing and Textiles caught my interest. The study focused on teenagers' self-identified cold tolerance and wearing behavior inside and outside the classroom during the winter season. Generally, they found very few differences in behavior, however, female students were found to be more sensitive to the cold, which prompted them to wear more clothing. Other studies have shown that men exhibit greater tolerance to heat exposure and smaller increases in their core body temperature though confounding factors may complicate such findings. There are studies that suggest that as boys and girls get older hormonal differences cause men to sweat more. Sweat functions as a cooling mechanism for our bodies. I am no expert on these topics so defer to them ultimately. My point here is there no conclusive smoking gun in the literature about difference in tolerance between boys and girls that might explain my speculative observations. Which brings me back to the emotional support hypothesis. Recent data suggests that mental health is increasingly a major challenge for teens. That same data notes that teen girls are particularly struggling. Anita Slomski wrote a summary of a recent CDC Youth Risk Behavior Survey for the JAMA Network. She said, 'According to the survey findings, which included data from more than 17 000 students in 152 public and private schools, 57% of teen girls reported feeling persistently sad or hopeless in the past year—a nearly 60% increase from 36% in 2011. In contrast, 29% of teen boys reported feeling this way in 2021, an increase from 21% in 2011.' My deeper dive revealed some interesting things from a scientific and cultural perspective regarding teens and hoodies. However, I think Madhumanti Majumdar nails it. She went on to say, 'Ultimately, the decision to use a hoodie in this manner is a personal one, and what may be effective for one individual may not be for another.' Many of you reading this have likely chosen an outfit or piece of clothing based on how it made you feel or look, so we have to check our judgment of teens at the door. I resonate with the 'to each their own' perspective, but my reasons for thinking about this topic in the first place circles back to my area of expertise. Our summers are getting warmer. According to NOAA, 2024 was the warmest year since 1850 and by a significant margin. They pointed out, 'Earth's temperature has risen by an average of 0.11° Fahrenheit (0.06° Celsius) per decade since 1850, or about 2° F in total…. The 10 warmest years in the historical record have all occurred in the past decade (2015-2024).' Global average surface tempeature difference s since 1850.
