The problem of abuse of controlled substances and addiction to prescription drugs is wide-spread in the United States. People who abuse and/or are addicted to prescription medications come from all walks of life. Health care professionals are in that group. These are people are entrusted with our well-being, yet health care professionals are as likely as any other person to become an addict. Here are some things to watch for if you suspect a colleague is abusing a controlled substance.
The United States is the only one of all industrialized nations that does not have some kind of system providing health care to all of its citizens. How can we ignore upwards of 45 million people and growing that do not have access to affordable health care? There are many things on our collective plate that need attention and if ignored will result in grave consequences. We have been discussing this dilemma for many years. Other issues of war and the economy have cast a shadow over the political campaign and now tackling the challenges ahead.
Deciding which Health Care Insurance is right for you and your family is an important choice. Broadly, the process towards making a decision to pick the right choice involves understanding what your present needs are, your financial standing, the current state of health for people who need cover, the types of health-related insurance plans and insurers available.
Everywhere we look the media and news has the debate over health care dominating the headlines. As Americans from across the country express their true feelings, especially at these town hall meeting events, there may just be a logical and common sense approach to this entire debate. Listening to both sides of the argument will ensure progress in the right direction to this massive problem that must be addressed. |

| Great sages, physicians, and masters of all cultures and all times have identified a few simple keys to health: proper breath; nutrition; inner cleansing; moderate exercise; enough rest; a positive, now-focused outlook, and living in harmony with nature. In my practice as a naturopath and energy healer, I am continually drawn back to these basic elements of health, yet I still find that very few people truly understand how vital they are. |

| Gone are the days when people used to carry their health records in unwieldy files when visiting a doctor. The advances in technology made it is possible to carry the entire documents in pocket-sized devices like CD-ROMs, pen drives and now on dedicated websites who take the responsibility of saving and updating medical data. To keep a track of our medical history and share and use it when necessary, we need to create a personal health record. |

| Everyone is challenged by health coverage rates increases, and is searching for reasonable ways to control costs. Changes in the practice of medicine also affect the way health care dollars are assigned and spent. The implementation of a Health Savings Account eliminates any type of Co-pays, Service Deductibles and has only one family deductible vs. multiple family deductibles like your current policy. |
