On episode 454 of The Nurse Keith Show nursing and healthcare career podcast, Keith interviews Maria Smilios, the author of The Black Angels: The Untold Story of the Nurses Who Helped Cure Tuberculosis. In the course of their conversation, Keith and Ms Smilios discuss how numerous Black nurses fled the Jim Crow south in search of opportunity in the non-segregated north, and how many ended up working at Sea View Hospital on Staten Island, a facility focused on the treatment — and to a large extent the warehousing — of thousands of TB patients. Listeners may be shocked to learn that the American Nurses Association barred Black nurses from being members until they gave in to pressure in 1949, despite Black nurses' impressive contributions to the development of the profession. A native of New York City, Ms. Smilios holds a Masters of Arts from Boston University in Religion & Literature where she was a Henry Luce Scholar and a Presidential Scholar. She also taught Essay and Research writing in the university’s writing program.  In 2007, she left Boston and moved back to New York City to teach at an all-girls high school. There she created and ran an intensive summer writing program for teens.  Maria formerly worked as a development editor in the Biomedical Sciences editing books in lung diseases, pediatric and breast cancer, neurology, and ocular diseases. It was during this time when she read a line in a book that led her to discover the story of the Black Angels.  Through writing the book, she has become in involved in advocating for affordable and accessible TB drugs in TB-heavy countries, working with and supporting organizations such as EndTB and Partners in Health. In the past, Ms. Smilios has written for The Guardian, American Nurse, Narratively, The Rumpus, Dame Magazine, and The Forward among others. The Black Angels is her first book.

This episode is brought to you by Chris, Kim and Rif from Medicubes.About the MedicubesThe Medicubes team brings you a monthly panel conversation of exciting and challenging topics in primary health care, answering listener questions and invited guests to the discussions.About the EpisodeIn this episode of Medicubes, join Ben Ryan and Kelly Chard as they discuss the intricacies of payroll tax for GP clinics.They cover how payroll tax affects medical practices in Australia and the recent crackdown by revenue offices on non-compliant practices. Hear real-world cases highlighting the importance of properly classifying doctors to not run into payroll tax pain later down the line.Key Takeaways:Payroll tax is a state-based tax administered by each state's revenue office, not the ATO (Australian Taxation Office)Revenue offices are actively cracking down on medical practices that have been non-compliant with payroll tax regulations.Recent cases involving Optical Superstore and Thomas and Naaz have brought attention to the issue of properly classifying doctors and patients under the Payroll Tax Act.Medical practices need to consider payroll tax when dealing with doctors and patients and seek advice from experienced professionals.It is essential for medical practices to have conversations with knowledgeable professionals who specialise in both accounting and legal aspects of the medical industry.Updating bank accounts without considering the wider plan will not fix any existing payroll tax issues.Collaborating with legal advisors and experts is crucial to ensure operational changes align with legal advice.Understanding the business structure, evaluating day-to-day operations, and seeking professional advice are the first steps in managing payroll tax risks.Remember this episode is not professional advice in any way. Please seek your own accounting and legal advice taking into account your own unique circumstances.Check out more episodes from Medicubes:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/medicubes/id1635000183 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6H6hJ1lMo8Wt5OK2rzLFkZ?si=952a1830b9964869
