Innovation Journalism Takes Polio to the Headlines

Innovation Journalism Takes Polio to the Headlines



UNICEF & Ministry of Health holds the first National Health Media Awards to acknowledge media's leading role in achieving success in national health campaigns.



Islamabad, PK (PRWEB) July 9, 2009



UNICEF Pakistan in joint collaboration with the Ministry of Health, Government of Pakistan held the first National Health Media Awards to applaud those media initiatives, which have strongly supported the health campaigns launched nationwide. The applauded media initiatives have not only promoted the campaigns but also resulted in remarkable outreach and tangible outcome.



Mr. Amir Jahangir, Chief Executive Officer of SAMAA TV received a special award for Innovations in Health Journalism. Mr. Jahangir is known for being a media person carrying out health related initiatives to improve the overall health indicators situation in Pakistan; the special award was presented for his contribution and efforts towards the eradication of polio across Pakistan.



SAMAA TV, in joint collaboration with, UNICEF Pakistan and the Ministry of Health was the first media channel in Pakistan to establish a Polio Control Cell aimed at acting as an information bridge between the citizens and the polio control authorities. The cell, first of its kind provided instant information on the initiative to callers in the length and breadth of the country besides performing the vital task of identifying missed areas and children. Since its establishment in October 2008, more than 35,000 children have been ensured the vaccination against the polio virus, who otherwise would have been included as the missed targets during the campaigns.



Speaking on the occasion Federal Minister for Health Mir Aijaz Hussain Jakhrani said "The government is committed to protecting the children of Pakistan from the scourge of polio. We need to reach out to every eligible child, which itself is a huge task and can only be accomplished with the collaboration of all stakeholders including the media". Mr. Jakhrani applauded the media for playing a proactive role in waging a war against disease and disability. He especially hailed SAMAA TV efforts for leading from the front in this initiative.



The Polio Control Cell has also received high acknowledgement at the international forums, where Mr. Bill Gates, Co-chair and Trustee of the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation and the Director General World Health Organization, Dr. M. Chan has applauded the SAMAA model as "THE PAKISTAN MODEL" and called it a role model to be replicated in other epidemic developing countries. The model has also been commended at the Stanford University as one of the prime Innovation Journalism case studies for Public-Private Partnership initiative for media and healthcare delivery mechanisms at the 6th Innovation Journalism Conference held in May 2009.



Speaking on the occasion Mr. Amir Jahangir, said that "this award gives a great sense of achievement, however our achievement lies more in the fact that we were among the key players in ensuring a healthier Pakistan. No doubt that given the popularity, coverage and effectiveness of SAMAA News, our support in bringing innovation to the health delivery mechanisms in Pakistan, however, this is just the beginning, we need to continue the same commitment and finish what we set out to achieve - a polio free future for our coming generations."



According to WHO, Afghanistan, India, Nigeria and Pakistan, which together accounted for 1,514 polio cases in 2008, or 91 per cent of all cases. The number of polio cases reported annually has decreased by more than 99 per cent - from 350,000 in 1988 to 1,660 cases in 2008. Pakistan has 118 polio cases during 2008, which is an increase of more than 86 cases since 2007.



Speaking at the award ceremony, Mr. Jahangir urged all the stakeholders to come forward and jointly work for a better and healthier Pakistan. Mr. Jahangir dedicated the Award to the entire SAMAA TV team for making the campaign a success.



Mr. Jahangir also emphasized that Pakistan needs to focus more on improving its Health indicators. Pakistan ranks 116th out of the 134 economies on the Global Competitiveness Index of the World Economic Forum. "The World Economic Forum at Davos ranks the competitiveness of more than 134 nations globally on an annual basis.



In April 2009, the VINNOVA-Stanford Research Center of Innovation Journalism honored Mr. Amir Jahangir as the Program Advisor to the Research Center on Global Media Development and Journalism. Mr. Jahangir has also played a crucial role in improving health reporting from Pakistan in this regard as well.



SAMAA TV is one of Pakistan's leading private satellite television channels, which takes pride in its fair, factual and independent news coverage through its on-the-hour bulletins, breaking stories, incisive political analysis and current affairs programs. The channel has also made a niche for itself through its programs on women and youth issues besides infotainment and sports. SAMAA TV, launched in December 2007 has network of district correspondents and five (5) bureaus across Pakistan along with international stringers in the Middle East, Europe and North America.

April 28 - May 4 is National Scoop the Poop Week

April 28 - May 4 is National Scoop the Poop Week



Bellingham-based Doo Bandits encourages dog owners of the importance of cleaning up after their dogs with informational booths at city parks.



Bellingham, Washington (PRWEB) April 26, 2009



Bellingham based Doo Bandits encourages dog owners of the importance of cleaning up after their dogs during National Scoop the Poop Week, April 28 - May 4, 2009.

In association with the City of Bellingham, Doo Bandits will be available May 1, 8am to 4pm at Bloedel Donovan Park, 2214 Electric Avenue and May 2, 8am to 5pm at Lake Padden Park, 4882 Samish Way to provide pet waste information and treats for Fido.



There are approximately 27,000 dogs in Whatcom County. The average dog produces ¾ pounds of waste per day. Which means 27,750 lbs. of dog waste per day. That amount of waste can contain 1,241,730,000,000 fecal coliform bacteria.



Dennis Pate, owner of Doo Bandits says, "According to the Washington Department of Ecology, during rains, dog poop melts away and runoff carries it to storm drains, ditches and streams that feed our rivers, lakes and marine waters. The bacteria from dog poop can end up in shellfish, making people who eat those shellfish very sick. The bacteria can also make water unsafe to drink or to swim in. Nutrients from dog poop can also feed the growth of aquatic plants and algae, which, as these decay, use up oxygen in the water that fish and other aquatic life need." Pate would like to remind dog owners to pick up after their pet and carry dog waste bags when they take their dog for a walk.



Dennis recently started Doo Bandits (www. doobandits. com). With an estimated 48,000 dogs in Whatcom county, he felt the owners needed help in cleaning up the "poo"1. It's estimated to be at least 700 "poo" services throughout the country.2 Doo Bandits is Eco-Friendly and use only biodegradable trash bags and and clean their tools only with environmentally safe cleaning products after every use.



Dennis said he wants to help make your life and your pet's life a lot more enjoyable. Dog waste can affect the appearance of your yard, attract pests and flies, pollute, get on your shoes, carpet and other interior surfaces, offend the neighbors, and most importantly, it can endanger the health of your pets and your family. The "Bandit" is here to eliminate the most unpleasant "doodie" of dog ownership.



Weekly, twice a week, every other week, monthly, and one-time service is available. "When I come to your home I will collect the waste and place into double wrapped biodegradable bags for disposal. To help keep your high traffic areas sanitary I disinfect walks, porch or patios in the immediate vicinity of cleaning." Pate said.



In addition Doo Bandits will check outside water bowls and refill during the summer months. They will even advise the owner if anything appears unusual with the dog's stool.



As a member of APAWS-Association of Professional Animal Waste Specialists (Yes, there is a trade organization) Doo Bandits will strive to uphold a strict standard of what is to be expected in the care and treatment of all animals as expected of APAWS members.

During April Dennis is setting up the schedule for service during the spring and summer. He can be reached at 360-778-1291 or go to www. doobandits. com.

Los Angeles Personal Injury Attorneys Owen, Patterson & Owen Now Representing Victims of Elder Abuse

Los Angeles Personal Injury Attorneys Owen, Patterson & Owen Now Representing Victims of Elder Abuse



Owen, Patterson & Owen recently won a landmark verdict of $12.5 million for a victim of elder abuse at a Southern California senior care facility.



Valencia, CA (PRWEB) July 21, 2010



Victims of elder abuse have an advocate in Los Angeles personal injury attorneys Owen, Patterson & Owen. The law firm has successfully represented elder abuse victims in the past and offers a free, no-obligation consultation to victims and their families.



In a recent elder abuse case involving a senior care facility in Southern California, Owen, Patterson & Owen won a landmark verdict of $12.5 million in damages for their client. "This case sent a strong message that the mistreatment of elders should not be tolerated," said law firm partner Gregory Owen.



A Los Angeles Superior Court jury awarded Owen's client $6 million in general damages and $6.5 million in punitive damages following an incident of abuse. The $12.5 million judgment is one of the largest ever awarded for emotional trauma.



Elder abuse is a problem that is fairly widespread in America today. A 1994 survey (http://www. efmoody. com/longterm/nursingstatistics. html) indicated that approximately 5% of the nurses' aids on file with state regulators had a criminal record involving violence and/or theft. Additionally, a congressional report from 2001 (http://judiciary. senate. gov/hearings/testimony. cfm? id=935&wit_id=2649) found that state inspectors cited cases of "serious abuse" at one nursing home in 10.



The Nursing Home Reform Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act protect the rights of seniors receiving care in a nursing home. Residents have the right to be free from mental and physical abuse; be free from unnecessary physical and chemical restraints; be treated with consideration, dignity and respect; and have the right to self-determination. It is often up to the families of the elderly to seek redress when these rights are violated. Elder abuse can be physical, emotional, sexual, financial, or involve neglect or health care fraud.



Symptoms of abuse include unexplained injuries or personality change, neglect, or inappropriate physical restraint. A broader list of the warning signs of abuse is available at the Owen, Patterson & Owen Los Angeles elder abuse attorney (http://www. opolaw. com/PracticeAreas/elder-abuse-attorney. asp) website page.



Owen, Patterson & Owen offers a free, no-obligation consultation to victims of elder abuse and their families available via the company's website or by calling the firm's toll-free number listed at the bottom of this page. "We take our responsibility towards the people we represent in personal injury cases very seriously," said Rick Patterson.



About Owen, Patterson & Owen:

Since 1977, the Owen, Patterson and Owen (OPO) team has successfully handled a range of personal injury cases ranging from medical malpractice to birth accidents and wrongful death. Serving clients nationwide and headquartered in Valencia, Southern California, the personal injury law firm's clients rely on them to look out for their best interests. The firm's dedicated Los Angeles personal injury attorneys (http://www. opolaw. com/) played an instrumental role in obtaining a $4.85 billion settlement of the dangerous drug Vioxx and a record-setting $35 million pretrial settlement on behalf of a 12-year-old brain-damaged Palmdale girl. OPO Law now also represents clients who have experienced elder abuse. For more information, please visit www. OPOLaw. com or call 866.654.4947

What Would Jesus Pasteurize?

What Would Jesus Pasteurize?



Mandatory almond pasteurization restricts consumer rights and religious freedom.



Seattle, WA (PRWEB) August 2, 2007



As of September 1, 2007, all almonds produced in California, which are destined for the U. S., Canada, and Mexico will be required to undergo pasteurization, or at least that is the ruling passed by the Almond Board of California with the backing of the USDA. Raw foodists around the world depend on a reversal of this ruling and followers of the Essene teachings may face giving up one of their staples.



The basic reason for this exercise in control over citizen's food is two separate incidents of salmonella poisoning found in raw almonds over the last six years. These incidents involved conventional almonds, not organic almonds. Even though no incidents of salmonella poisoning have been reported from organic raw almonds, the Almond Board has decided that they, too, should be pasteurized. So, while there has been no evidence that raw organic almonds are susceptible to salmonella poisoning, the Almond Board is taking away the major source of one of raw foodists' staples.



Another problem with this ruling is that the pasteurized almonds will not be required to be labeled as pasteurized. Consumers may see pasteurized almonds labeled only as “raw” almonds. If the pasteurized almonds are not labeled as “pasteurized”, this will be misleading to consumers and removes the public's ability to make informed decisions.



If there were a lot of other sources of raw almonds, this ruling might not be as serious an issue. However, California happens to be the only U. S. state commercially growing almonds. In addition, California grows about 80% of the world’s almonds, according to the Almond Board of California website.



If this ruling is not reversed, consumers may unwillingly consume pasteurized almonds. Some raw foodists may become ill as a result and they may have to decide between ending a 100% raw diet and ending their consumption of almonds. A better option may be to help the Almond Board “see the light” regarding raw organic almonds. It is not September yet, and consumers need to know both sides of the story.



Citizens of the United States have the freedom to follow the religion of their choice. This may sound strange when discussing the topic of almond pasteurization. Most pasteurization is a form of cooking. There are, in the Essene teachings, quotes from Jesus (Yashua) that state “…prepare not your foods with the fire of death, which kills your foods, your bodies and your souls also.” Many who follow the raw food diet can understand why Jesus would say such a thing. People have experienced improved, even amazing, health as a result of not cooking their food. Because followers of the Essene teachings, which include eating raw foods, may no longer be able to purchase almonds in their raw state, this ruling is actually treading on their religious rights. The Almond Board may be replacing a raw staple with a pasteurized one. If the Essene followers are unable to find other truly raw sources of almonds, they either turn their backs on the teachings or stop eating the almonds. How can this happen in the U. S.?



This aspect of the almond controversy is addressed on a new website. You may have heard of “What Would Jesus Do?” How about http://WhatWouldJesusPasteurize. com (http://WhatWouldJesusPasteurize. com)? There is compelling information on this site about the almond issue and the resulting religious implications. The site also tells visitors some of the things they can do to reverse this ruling. If consumers wish to retain their right to choose raw foods and citizens wish for us all to maintain our religious freedoms, they should act now.



Raw foodists around the world are doing their best to get this ruling reversed. In the mean time, stock up on your raw almonds… while they are still raw.

EBI Consulting Completes 100th Electromagnetic Energy Evaluation For T-Mobile

Singapore Medicine - Singapore Doctors Use Hi-Tech Implant to Add Space to Narrowed Spinal Canals

Singapore Medicine - Singapore Doctors Use Hi-Tech Implant to Add Space to Narrowed Spinal Canals



Singapore's ParkwayHealth is the first healthcare group in Southeast Asia to offer the In-Space percutaneous interspinous distraction device, a revolutionary spinal procedure.



Singapore (PRWEB) November 18, 2008



Singapore's ParkwayHealth is the first healthcare group in Southeast Asia to offer the In-Space percutaneous interspinous distraction device, a revolutionary spinal procedure (http://www. singaporemedicine. com).



It is the bane of many elderly folk -- buttocks and lower back pain. Also known as lumbar spinal stenosis, this is when spinal discs undergo wear and tear from natural degeneration. In the process, the spinal canals are narrowed and nerves may be impinged, causing the typical symptoms.



To correct the problem, open surgery or a laminectomy may become necessary to distract the two vertebrae apart and decompress or release pressure on the nerve root. However, for suitable patients, a new procedure involving an implantable device is now available. Not only does it treat the symptoms with improved results but it spares the patient much discomfort and inconvenience.



Developed in Munich, Germany in 2005 and launched in Europe a year later, the In-Space percutaneous interspinous distraction device (http://www. singaporemedicine. com/leadingmedhub/leadingmedhub1.asp) was designed as a tissue-sparing alternative to the laminectomy. The former only requires a small incision of around 2cm compared to 10cm or bigger for the latter.



With the aid of X-ray imaging, a wire is then guided to the space that needs to be widened or distracted. An implant (drum) is then railroaded between the affected spinous processes to widen the space between them. Specially-designed metal 'wings' help keep the implant in place by catching onto the adjacent vertebrae.



Unlike a laminectomy, In-Space does not involve the removal of any bone and damaging of any muscles, thus ensuring that the stability of the spine is not compromised in any way.



Since it is a minimally-invasive procedure, patients will not have to tolerate much pain, excessive bleeding, a long hospital stay, and invariably, enjoy a quicker return to work. Surgery for a single level of vertebrae with a traditional laminectomy would take approximately between two and three hours while the In-Space procedure takes just under an hour to complete.



Dr Razmi Rahmat, Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon at ParkwayHealth's Mount Elizabeth Hospital (http://www. singaporemedicine. com/hcp/hcp1.asp), is one of a few surgeons in Asia trained to do the procedure, the first of which was carried out in August 2008.



"The most important thing is that this procedure is not done in the spinal canal, so the risk of nerve damage is negligible. There is no direct manipulation of the nerves. In fact, besides doing it accurately under image guidance, we are working very far away from the danger zones," maintains Dr Razmi. 



The suitable patients are usually those between 40 and 70 years of age displaying necessary lumbar spinal stenosis symptoms (http://www. singaporemedicine. com/healthcaredest/sg. asp). Still, not everyone can present as an ideal candidate for In-Space. While leg and buttock pain is a common symptom, the patient needs to feel relief the moment he or she sits down.



Dr Razmi explains, "This is a sign that the degeneration is not severe and is still in an early stage. If the pain is ever-present, then this won't work. A laminectomy will then be necessary to relieve the nerve. Still, I'm confident that although its applications are limited for now, more degenerative spinal conditions will in time, be treatable with In-Space."



The In-Space percutaneous interspinous distraction procedure (http://www. singaporemedicine. com/leadingmedhub/leadingmedhub1.asp) costs approximately US$10,000 for a single level of vertebrae done in Singapore. In the US, the procedure for use of the device is still awaiting approval from the Food and Drug Administration and is expected to cost at least twice as much as in Singapore.

Home Contractor Cuts Corners

Home Contractor Cuts Corners



Most people believe home improvement contractors are notorious for cutting corners. Yet hereÂ’s a project that has had its corners cut in all the best ways. These cut corners are not examples of shoddy workmanship, they are the features of exceptional design.



(PRWEB) December 29, 2004



While typical homes are somewhat rectangular in shape, this early 1980’s two-story home had its corners “cut off.” Sylvain Côté, the owner of Absolute Remodeling Corporation, intends to maintain the homes original octagonal shape and large structural chimney at its core. His plans include adding an additional story to the existing “upside down home,” as it is sometimes referred to when the bedrooms are downstairs, relocating the bedrooms upstairs where they ought to be. The floors of the home are supported by twenty-three large, two hundred year old antique beams fastened to the chimney, borrowing Gustav Stickley practical concept of merging utilitarian and aesthetic ideals, found in the Arts & Crafts movement. The absence of interior load bearing walls on all levels offers complete design flexibility and is good foresight; when the kids move out, the master bedroom can become doubled in size in an instant.



But the bigger story of this 3600 square foot “open floor plan” lakefront home is that it is a Green home, an Energy Star certified home, and a Zero Energy home.



Green homes reduce energy consumption, protect ecosystems and more importantly the occupantÂ’s health. Building and remodeling green is not much different than conventional construction. It starts with the design. Home orientation is considered. Renewable, low maintenance, long lasting building materials are given priority. Engineered lumber instead of dimensional lumber is preferred, which along with advanced framing techniques, reduces the amount of wood necessary for framing by as much as 33 percent. Natural passive heating and cooling is used as much as possible. A high level of quality insulation is a must.



Energy Star certified homes use proven technologies and advanced building practices that ensure your home is as energy efficient as possible. Energy Star labeled homes must pass a stringent evaluation, including computer-based energy analysis, inspections, and certification testing. New York Energy Star program standards are the highest or about to become the highest in the country, making them above national standards. IsnÂ’t nice to know that New York State is the pioneer of such programs?



Zero Energy homes (ZEH) combine state-of-the-art, energy-efficient construction and appliances with commercially available renewable energy systems such as solar water heating and solar electricity. A ZEH, like most homes, is connected to the utility grid, but can be designed and constructed to produce as much energy as it consumes on an annual basis. With its reduced energy needs and renewable energy systems, a ZEH can, over the course of a year, give back as much energy to the utility as it takes.



It is impossible to grasp the magnitude of this project without paying a visit to the Absolute Remodeling Corporations award winning Web site. You will find over fifty pages dedicated to this project alone, which is called “Transformations.” On the site, you will also find pictures taken periodically from a time lapse camera, as well as several dozen video clips.



Perhaps a bit entertaining, but certainly informative, is the new impressive compilation of the most innovative, best performing building products. Manufacturers have competed against each other to “make the cut” and earn a share of Transformations. You will also find over one hundred links to relevant Web sites and related articles.



No “cutting of corners” here, this online library is expanding every week and can be valuable to any future homeowner contemplating a green construction project. The choices homeowners face when building can certainly be intimidating, confusing and overwhelming. It is not surprising, since over 3000 components makes up the average home. Using the Internet certainly facilitates the selections task, but only www. absoluteremodeling. com has all the latest information related to green home building “under one roof.”



DonÂ’t waste the most precious, non-renewable commodity and resource that none of us can afford to waste -- time. Use our library.

A $50,000 Guarantee Offered By Prominent Leadership Authority

A $50,000 Guarantee Offered By Prominent Leadership Authority



Celebrated leadership session he began at New York's Princeton Club in 1993 "Being Taken To The World."



Williamstown, MA (PRWEB) November 16, 2005



Businesses needing to get significant increases both in immediate and long term results can take advantage of a new "$50,000 guarantee" offered by The Filson Leadership Group, Inc.



The guarantee is tied to a one-day Leadership Talk session given by FLG's founder and president, Brent Filson, to select business leaders across the nation.



Filson started giving the One-day Leadership Talk sessions at the Princeton Club in New York City in 1993 and continued giving them every month at the Club for more than a decade.



Over the years, leaders from a variety of top global companies have participated, boosting their careers using Leadership Talks. 



"Now I'm taking the One-day sessions to the world," Filson says. "They're being given at retreats and other kinds of company meetings, on or off company sites -- wherever we can get a group of enterprising leaders together in a room for a day." 



Each session involves having participants learn the basic processes of The Leadership Talk -- described in Filson's latest book, The Leadership Talk: The Greatest Leadership Tool -- then putting together action plans using Leadership Talks to achieve big increases in hard, measured results back on their jobs.



Filson says, "Here's the guarantee: If the combined action plans of the participants don't get the company on track to achieving at least $50,000 in hard measure results, I'll return my fee. The results will be sizable. The results will come in a specific length of time. The results will be larger than the leaders are achieving now. The results can be measured, validated, and used as springboards for even more results. The results can be translated into money saved/earned. The results can't be achieved without the help of Leadership Talks. By the way, leaders who go through the session typically get far more than $50,000 in results, results they would not otherwise have gotten. Businesses without Leadership Talks are missing out on huge streams of revenue."



Filson observes that The Leadership Talk is such a powerful, results-reaping tool, it doesn't matter what results leaders and their companies are looking for. Here are just some of the results achieved by Leadership Talks after the One-day session, according to Filson: speed, productivity, operations efficiencies, sales closes, sales leads, sales to new customers, failure prevention, health and safety, quality, training, logistics, marketing targets, new revenue streams, sales erosion, price, supply chain management, cost reductions, demand flow activities and technologies, inventory turns, cycle time reductions, materials and parts management.

The US Pharmaceutical Industry Needs to Combat the Perception that it is Employers' Enemy, Incurring Enormous Costs for Little Return

The US Pharmaceutical Industry Needs to Combat the Perception that it is Employers' Enemy, Incurring Enormous Costs for Little Return



Dublin (PRWEB) February 6, 2006



Research and Markets (http://www. researchandmarkets. com/reports/c32101 (http://www. researchandmarkets. com/reports/c32101)) has announced the addition of Employers Role in the U. S. Health Care System: Part 1-The Nonelderly Population to their offering.



U. S. employers have many incentives to ensure that their employees (and their employees' dependents) receive a high standard of health care, but expanding and improving health care provision are expensive. Ever-increasing expenditures present employers with a dilemma: they want to ensure a high standard of health care for their employees but need to control their spending on such benefits. How best, then, for companies to proceed?



In this report, Part 1 of a two-part series on employers' evolving role in the U. S. health care system, Decision Resources examine the level of access to employer-sponsored health insurance in the United States and consider the increasing cost of providing such benefits. The report then focus on prescription drug benefits, analyzing employers' present and future cost-containment strategies and reviewing the role played by pharmacy benefit management companies (PBMs). Decision Resources also discuss the growth of consumerism in the U. S. health care system. The report concludes with an assessment of the outlook and implications for the pharmaceutical industry.



For more information on Part 2, please search the site for "Employers Role in the U. S. Health Care System: Part 2-The Medicare Population"



Business Implications



Employer-sponsored health insurance is by far the most important source of health care coverage in the United States. In 2003, approximately 159 million nonelderly U. S. residents received employer-sponsored health insurance. However, access to such coverage has declined since 2001, while the ranks of the uninsured have grown, reaching 45 million in 2003. Almost all covered workers in employer-sponsored health plans receive prescription drug benefits. Approximately 200 million U. S. residents (68% of the population) have these benefits administered by pharmacy benefit management companies (PBMs). Employers want PBMs to be more transparent about the discounts and rebates they negotiate from pharmaceutical companies and to be more active in promoting the use of generics and other inexpensive medicines. To defend themselves against growing criticism, PBMs may have to distance themselves from the pharmaceutical industry.



Employers are likely to adopt increasingly aggressive pharmaceutical cost-containment strategies. Multitier formularies will become more common and more complex, as more and more employers instruct their health plans and PBMs to add fourth and fifth tiers to their formulary designs. Copayments for branded medicines (especially nonpreferred brands) will continue to increase rapidly, and



Coinsurance for the upper tiers of formularies will become more common. Economies of scale afforded by mail-order pharmacy will prompt a growing number of employers to offer mail-order discounts or even to impose mandatory use of mail-order pharmacy. The expiration of patents on many blockbuster drugs in the next several years will stimulate the generics market. With an expanded arsenal of generic drugs available, it will be easier for employers to justify policies such as mandatory use of generics.



Consumerism—the policy of requiring consumers to assume increased economic responsibility for their health care choices and (potentially) to bear a greater proportion of costs—is expected to expand rapidly in the next several years. Employees will have greater freedom to make choices about their health care but might try to cut their costs to avoid incurring high deductibles. Drug manufacturers should seek ways to interact more directly with employers, especially very large organizations. For example, pharmaceutical companies could play a role in employers' disease management programs. Sponsoring health-related Web sites would be another way to support employers. Above all, the pharmaceutical industry needs to combat the perception that it is employers' enemy, incurring enormous costs for little return. It is critical to demonstrate the value of innovative medicines.

ASPCA Names Tim Rickey as Senior Director of Field Investigations & Response

ASPCA Names Tim Rickey as Senior Director of Field Investigations & Response



The ASPCA® (The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals®) has appointed Tim Rickey as Senior Director of its newly created Field Investigations and Response team, effective January 4, 2010.



New York (Vocus) January 5, 2010



The ASPCA® (The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals®) has appointed Tim Rickey as Senior Director of its newly created Field Investigations and Response team, effective January 4, 2010.



Rickey was formerly the Director of the Animal Cruelty Task Force and Disaster Response team for the Humane Society of Missouri (HSMO), where he recently led the largest dog fighting raid in U. S. history, covering eight states and seizing more than 500 dogs in one day.



“Tim Rickey’s unrelenting commitment to fighting animal cruelty is longstanding and will assure that the ASPCA’s resources are coordinated and focused on our mission to prevent cruelty to animals,” said Matt Bershadker, Senior Vice President of the ASPCA’s Anti-Cruelty department. “His courage and tenacity has meant a second chance for countless animals and serves as a giant step forward in the fight against animal cruelty.”



In his new post, Rickey will lead the efforts of the ASPCA’s Field Investigations and Response team, which covers natural disasters as well as large and small animal rescue operations. The team is part of the ASPCA’s Anti-Cruelty group, which is also comprised of Humane Law Enforcement, Government Relations, and Forensic Sciences and Anti-Cruelty Projects.



Rickey’s 20-year career has been devoted to animal welfare issues, first as an animal caretaker at the Joplin (Mo.) Humane Society and as an animal control officer for 11 years at Joplin Animal Control. He joined the HSMO in 2002 as a statewide animal cruelty investigator, and was named director of its Anti Cruelty Task Force and Disaster Response team in 2005.



Rickey led the HSMO’s recovery efforts following Hurricanes Katrina, Rita, Gustav and Ike, major floods in Iowa and multiple Missouri incidents including ice storms, floods and tornados.

On July 8, 2009, he coordinated animal rescue efforts and crime-scene evidence gathering in five states: Missouri, Illinois, Iowa, Texas, and Oklahoma. Dogs also were rescued in Nebraska, Arkansas and Mississippi. The multi-location evidence and animal recovery operation was assisted by the ASPCA and Humane Society of the United States.

Rickey attended the University of Missouri-Columbia’s National Cruelty Investigation School. He is a frequent instructor on such topics as animal welfare and the law. He is also certified in numerous animal rescue operations, including large animal, swift water and rope rescue, and has completed Department of Homeland Security/FEMA coursework. He earned diplomas in Veterinary Technology, as well as Wildlife, Forestry and Conservation, from Thompson Learning Institute.



Born in Joplin, Mo., Rickey and his wife, Teresa, and their two daughters live near St. Louis, where they tend to their own menagerie, which includes a cat, three dogs, three horses, four goats and 17 chickens—all rescues.

Governor Rendell Paints Rosey Election Eve Malpractice Crisis Scenario

Governor Rendell Paints Rosey Election Eve Malpractice Crisis Scenario



Pennsylvania's Governor Rendell paints rosey scenario to win doctors' votes as he protects trial lawyers who litigate against them.



Philadelphia, PA (PRWEB) January 4, 2006



As his governorship turns the corner toward the new election season, Governor Ed Rendell claims Pennsylvania has “turned the corner” on its medical liability crisis. Yet, Pennsylvania remains in crisis. Thousands of physicians have been forced out of business due to skyrocketing medical liability premiums that have resulted from rampant frivolous malpractice lawsuits. Moreover, most student physicians leave Pennsylvania upon completion of their training because they cannot afford to practice here.



“Governor Rendell’s painted scenario might be rosey, but Pennsylvania’s physicians and patients are still stuck by the thorns of reality,” said Politically Active Physicians Association President John Salvo. “An increasing number of patients are losing access to health care because we are losing doctors.”



The governor claims 34,000 physicians pay into the MCARE Fund—which he says proves the crisis is easing. But he fails to disclose of those 34,000, thousands are nurse midwives, medical schoolteachers, hospitals and others.



Governor Rendell has a balancing act he must perform to be reelected: protect the trial lawyers who substantially fund his candidacy and win the powerful voting block of doctors against whom those lawyers litigate. And so, rather than seek meaningful tort reforms such as reasonably limiting jury awards and attorney fees, the governor hides behind the smoke and mirrors of the MCARE bandage.



“Rendell’s campaign to physicians from the back pocket of trial lawyers is an insult to the patients of Pennsylvania who desperately need the tort reforms he has purposely failed to provide,” said Salvo.

Eliminate Back Pain Quickly Without Harmful Medications or Dangerous Surgery

Eliminate Back Pain Quickly Without Harmful Medications or Dangerous Surgery



5 simple steps for ridding yourself of back pain



(PRWEB) February 27, 2005



Millions of people suffer from back pain unnecessarily when there is actually a very simple solution, according to Jesse Cannone of http://www. losethebackpain. com (http://www. losethebackpain. com), a certified personal trainer and back pain specialist. "Unfortunately, many people are led to believe that back pain is normal and were all supposed to experience it... well, thankfully, that's not the case. Eliminating back pain is not nearly as difficult as most people think or are led to believe... it can actually be easy!" says Cannone.



Here's the simple system that must be followed if you are looking for real, long-term, lasting back pain relief:



1. Identify the cause - nearly all of the treatments people receive for back pain only focus on the symptoms and the healthcare professionals zoom in on only the problem area. The real key in eliminating back pain is to find out exactly what's causing the problem... and most of the time it's not even the back!



2. Address both the cause and the symptom - the best approach is a



Combination of treating the symptoms for pain relief while also addressing the underlying cause.



3. Be aware - many people suffering from back pain are not in tune with their bodies and during their treatment they do not realize what is working and what is not. In order to achieve long-term relief you have to understand how your body works, what's causing the problem, and what changes have to be made to correct it.



4. Consistent Focused Action - achieving success in anything requires



Consistency and focused action. Most people with back pain won't make the time to work on their problem each day... instead they take pain killers which mask the pain and allow them to cause more damage while they continue with their life.



5. Don't do what doesn't work - we already know that most traditional



Treatments for back pain don't work.... why waste your time, energy, and money? The real key to eliminating back pain is to identify the true cause of the pain and then address it with a combination of treatments to treat both the cause and symptoms. Over 80% of all back pain is caused by muscle imbalances... not a lack of pain killers or surgery! Fid out what's going on in your body and take action.
