One Way to Cope with Medical Costs Despite the Brexit & Medicare Financial Crashes

B'SD

18 Sivan, 5776

Two BIG news stories indicate that patients around the world need information on how to handle their medical costs:

1) BBC, Sky News and ITV networks report that Brexit won the vote. UK is leaving the European Union!



The stunning outcome reflected populist sentiment and is sure to have far-reaching effects on Britain’s place in the world and the future of the E.U.

Money markets are in CRISIS!

UK & EU Drug Regulations - probably costs - in TROUBLE! 

2) 

Under the guise of “reform,” President Obama is dismantling Medicare — dooming seniors to needless pain and disability and shortening their lives. The stakes are high, because Medicare and the acce…

Healthcare as a Commodity? Here's a Solution.

B'SD

14 Tishrei, 5774

Spell it as you prefer: Health care, healthcare or *~^%$#@!!!! (add an extra *¡¿₪£€&a;%$!!! if you wish)

Healthcare as a commodity has been a debate and a nerve-wracking reality for some time. PBS/Dr Marcia Angell have remarked on it. So have Seacoast, USNewsandWorld Report, and other venues.

A right, a privilege, whatever you choose to call it, health care has become a competitive activity. 


Well, securing it has, anyway.

The question 
is answered with humor and facts 
at Quarks.

As I proceed with my ICD-10 medical coding studies, classmates and I learn about prohibitive insurance clauses and limitations, far more than I'd already known of or suspected. 

Medical insurance issues are not a patient-friendly environment. 

So I did something to minimize, perhaps solve, the problem.

Need to get out of the downward spiral? 

Find resources you, a child or someone else need for quality 

  • Medical care, 
  • Medical appliances, 
  • Medical transportation, 
  • and other medical needs - worldwide - in the informative print or E-book edition of 




Medical and mental health professional recommend it
on and off the cover. 

So does a medical ethicist.

A medical crisis - you'd cry (or curse) too - if it happened to you. 

Use your tissues and handkerchiefs with my blessings borne of experience. GOD gives you Permission to Weep. And you can say that to any critics after explaining that "It's MY Crisis! And I'll Cry if I Need To."

Then resolve to solve your problems as best you can.

Oh - here's How to BE CAREFUL when you buy a  drug discount card!

Here's How to Help Detroit Retirees

B'SD

9 Tishrei, 5774


I did a triple-take when I read this headline:

Detroit may end health care coverage for retirees under 65, replace it with $125 monthly stipends


I can well imagine the sense of dread, panic and raw fear in the people who might be affected by this drastic move. 

$125.00 does not buy much health care. 

At retirement age, quality healthcare is usually Priority 1!

Considering the Confusion in California about Medicare Exchanges being Meaningless, more older Americans need to know how to obtain adequate health care. It's a matter of survival!


If I were in this situation, 
I'd be weeping.

Know a Detroiter or Californian who needs affordable quality medical care?
  • Medication? 
  • Medical transportation help? 
  • Medical appliances? 
  • Something else medical?

Alert them to pages upon pages of information about charitable organizations - worldwide - willing to pay for some or all of an applicant's medical necessities.

Buy that person a copy of the E-book or print edition of EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge so they can read all about that.




A medical crisis - you'd cry too, if it happened to you. Use your tissues and handkerchiefs with my blessings borne of experience. GOD gives you Permission to Weep. Read all about that on pages 4 and 5.

Breaking CPI and Other Chain(s) without Politics

B'SD

WARNING: Why Chained CPI Rattles the Elderly (and anyone soon to be).

Over time, I warned you that Obama's approach to medical care was problematic. Robbing social security accounts with this proposed Chained CPI plan is not in anyone's best interests. The risk is too big. If the plan fails, and even if it doesn't, your hard-earned money can disappear.

As the article above mentions, "The Obama administration’s proposal to change the basis for Social Security raises to 'chained CPI' is all about saving money by slowing the growth rate of benefits."

There's a saying from an old TV show, 
"Don't do the crime if you can't do the time."

Click on AARP's automatic Protest to POTUS program or go to the AARP site (www.aarp.org) to study it before you send a message to the White House.

If Chained CPI becomes law, I will shudder with you.

If you want to prepare yourself to cope with ever-worsening healthcare prospects in the USA, or to lower your medical costs anywhere in the world, you need to read



The Global Resources section of the book is filled with information on organizations around the world willing to pay part or all of your specific medical costs: Medical appliances, medication, medical care, medical transportation and more.

You don't need to be chained to politicians enslaving you to poverty, poor choices and despair.

One Easy Way to Be Somebody's Hero/Heroine!

B'SD

11 Shvat, 5773


I was at a party last night. The hostess asked each international guest to introduce themselves as we sat in a circle. 

As the conversation continued, one person mentioned that she's helping someone to get past a medical problem with her dignity intact by using a book. The hostess asked "Which book is that?"

I almost dropped my drink when the answer filled the air!



Then, the hostess remarked, "Oh, I have a copy of it on my bookshelf. Here it is! My whole family reads this whenever we need to!" She pointed to the bookshelf where she stores her copy.

Here's something that a reader wrote on the EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge Facebook page: "A moving, uplifting book. Order it now ! Not only for yourself but others in your world..."

Readers, you can be someone's hero or heroine with the simple gift of the book. 

It helps you and your loved one(s), friends or mentors to lose stress, to connect with much-needed medical and mental health professionals, and to lower your medical expenses.
