Common Tree Diseases: In this informative video, we delve into the world of seasonal plant diseases and how they affect various trees and shrubs. Our ISA Certified Arborist expert, Wes Rivers, provides valuable insights into the occurrence, symptoms, and management of prevalent diseases that emerge throughout the year.

Starting with Entomosporium leaf spot, commonly found during the spring, we explore its impact on Indian hawthorn and petunias. Discover how this fungal disease thrives in mild temperatures, abundant rainfall, and high humidity, leading to red lesions and defoliation.

As we move into summer, we encounter powdery mildew, affecting plants like crepe myrtles and oaks. Uncover its causes, appearance, and recommended strategies for prevention and control.

The discussion takes an interesting turn as our expert delves into root diseases. Particularly prevalent in post oaks found in sandy, well-aerated soil. Learn how excessive irrigation weakens these trees, making them susceptible to root rot and decline.

Additionally, we shed light on the lesser-known tubakia leaf spot, a disease that typically emerges in late summer, affecting post oaks and associated red oaks. Find out how it manifests as small, round lesions, and its surprising impact on blackjack oaks, known for their drought tolerance.

The video also addresses two destructive diseases caused by phytophthora and seiridium cankers. Gain valuable knowledge on identifying and managing these issues, including the telltale signs, potential damage to vascular tissues, and effective treatment options.

Why CAHPS still swings Star Ratings at half its old weight

Why CAHPS still swings Star Ratings at half its old weight

mPulse’s Sam Oliver and Reva Sheehan said the CAHPS chapter moved with overall Medicare Advantage Star Ratings from 2026 to 2027 after CMS cut its weight from 4 to 2. With 11 administrative measures set to start leaving with the 2028 ratings and the equity reward cancelled, they outlined scenario planning around CAHPS, population mix and reweighting changes.

  • 01CMS cut CAHPS from a weight of 4 to 2 in the CY2025 final rule, effective with the 2026 Star Ratings, yet mPulse's chapter data shows CAHPS still moved in the same direction as overall stars for the 2027 cycle.
  • 02The April 2026 final rule removes 11 administrative measures, but none leave before the 2028 Star Ratings; the 2027 measure set is unchanged and the Health Equity Index reward is cancelled.
  • 03CAHPS stars are set by percentile cutoffs and reliability tests, and in the 2025 Star Ratings 13 percent of CAHPS results landed on a different star than the cutoff implied, 93 percent of them lower, according to RISE Health.

  • 01Fifty-one later FDA clearances trace their predicate lineage to Monebo's earlier libraries, a track record anyone evaluating the new one can check.
