Question by Suzie Q: How does the new healthcare law help the poor?
Wouldn’t requiring the poor to pay for healthcare only put more stresses on them?
Best answer:
Answer by Norm
In theory, ObamaCare is supposed to make health care more affordable for everyone. In practice, however, it won’t.
Talk to your doctor about ObamaCare. You’ll learn that the myriad of new rules and regulations concerning health care will require doctors to hire more staff and purchase new information management systems to comply with the mandate. Those costs will be passed on to the patients in the form of higher fees for treatment. Add to that the fact that we will ALL be paying more taxes to fund this cash-cow AND the increased health care premiums (conservative estimates indicate the cost of health care will double under ObamaCare) and pretty much every American is screwed.
There is one way to avert this disaster: Vote Obama and his Democrat cronies out of office in November and replace them with Republicans who will repeal this abomination.

Physical therapy scheduling software can also help a PT practice create appointments with a couple of clicks of the mouse and maintain the office much more efficiently. In fact, a good EMR for physical therapy services can cut down on the time and expense of maintaining a staff and documenting each patients visit to the clinic. According to private practice owner and physical therapy marketing expert, Nitin Chhoda, there are many ways to learn more about EMR system, and his latest website which had been launched this June, is one of them.
Many professionals use occupational therapy software as well to streamline their workload and accomplish common tasks quickly and effortlessly. The future of successful physical and occupational therapy practices lies in electronic medical records (EMR) as more and more offices are now getting on board. President Obamas plan to computerize health care records is a major step forward in creating standardized software which can be compatible with most online systems.
An EMR system provides essential, ongoing documentation at a glance which in turn can save therapists from expensive lawsuits and repaying insurance funds during a post-payment audit. Ideally, an EMR system should contain all the pertinent patient information on a single page and when it is time to update the file it can be accomplished in a few easy steps.
A good EMR system will also help therapists manage their patient relationships without the need for them to rely on memory or to retrieve a paper chart in order to get up to speed on the patients visit. Therapists are able to manage their patient billing a lot easier with an EMR system as it will eliminate the need for paper calendars and other software as everything can be accomplished inside the EMR interface.
Chhodas office can be reached by phone at 201-535-4475. For more information, visit the website at http://www.emrnews.com.

New York Metro (PRWEB) July 25, 2012
Starting this fall, kids in Rockland, Westchester and Bergen counties will have a chance to get fit and healthy by participating in a unique pilot program sponsored by Bounce! Trampoline Sports, well known New York area sports nutritionist Dr. Michael Wald, and the Rockland Farm Alliance.
The pilot program will involve 25 kids ages 12 15 who care about their own fitness and want to develop a program that will help other kids in the future. The program will run for eight weeks and involve exciting trampoline based activities and games, workshops on creating fun and healthy snacks, and feedback sessions on what the kids like and want to adjust going forward.
“We are very excited about our new Get Fit & Feel Great Program. We developed the idea when several parents said, ‘Bounce! is so much fun, my kids don’t know its exercise!’ We’re proud that it fits in with Michelle Obama’s “Let’s Move” campaign and we believe this program could change the way these kids think about themselves for a lifetime,” stated Danny Fried, co-owner of Bounce! located in Valley Cottage.
Head Fitness Trainer at Bounce! Trampoline Sports and former acrobat performer Victor Byrne, will lead each class, developing new activities and programs based on the feedback from the participants. Byrne, who oversees all classes and gymnastics training at Bounce!, is also director of the VBAD Stars where he trains some of New York State’s best young diving champions at the world class facilities at SUNY Purchase in Westchester.
Teens will meet one on one with Dr. Michael Wald, Director of Nutritional Services at Integrated Medicine of Mount Kisco,to talk about their goals and weigh in, and then the focus will shift to having fun and finding activities that kids enjoy as well as how to make healthier food choices. “It is so important for kids to know that what they take into their bodies effects the way they move, think and interact throughout the day. Regardless of whether they play competitive sports or just want to throw a ball around with friends, we want to change their mindset about living a healthy lifestyle,” states Dr. Wald who has been helping kids eat right and stay healthy for over 20 years.
The Rockland Farm Alliance, based at Cropsey Farm in New City New York, will provide organic and locally grown vegetables for the kids to sample so they can try new foods grown right in the county and see the difference it can make when something is picked fresh and grown without harmful chemicals. A trip to the Farm is also planned during the program to talk about how caring for the earth affects the foods we eat.
The class will meet three times a week for one hour beginning mid September and run for eight weeks. The children in the program will set their own goals and monitor their progress and provide feedback on what is working for them and what they might recommend for other kids for future programs. At the end of the eight weeks they will be able to evaluate their own progress and see how well they did. The fee for the pilot program is only $ 195 and registration will begin August 1st. A kickoff event is planned for September; check the Bounce website (http://www.bounceonit.com) for details and information.
Bounce! Trampoline Sports is a 25,000 square foot facility offering all ages the opportunity to play sports, have fun and get fit on enormous courts of interconnected trampolines. They offer aerobics and acrobat classes, Bounce! Boot Camp, pick up dodgeball games and league play, slam dunk basketball, and gymnastics and tumbling training. The second Bounce! facility will open in Syosset, New York in the fall of 2012. For more details visit their website at http://www.bounceonit.com. Bounce! Trampoline Sports is located at 612 Corporate Way in Valley Cottage off Route 303, just two miles north of the Palisades Center Mall. For questions call 845-268-4000.

The working farm focuses on crop production to support a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program, and plans to dedicate a small portion of acreage to growing specialty crops for schools. Their goal is to inspire positive change by raising public awareness of the profound importance of developing a sustainable local food system and is supported in partnership with the Cornell Cooperative Extension.
In addition, a group of dedicated volunteers works throughout the year planning and executing local events that educate and bring awareness to the local community about organic and sustainable farming practices, sustainable living practices, and localization of food and business. We bring films, speakers and events to the area, many of which are free to the public.

EMRs provide therapists with a one-stop resource for managing all aspects of patient care, said Chhoda. Theyre efficient, cost effective and integrate easily with office workflow.
Patient portal
EMRs offer patient portals that clients can use to send messages to the office, schedule an appointment or request information. Physical therapy documentation software provides therapists with the means to engage patients in the care and management of their health for better treatment results. Therapists can share documents with the patient, and a physical therapy EMR offers a secure means for patients to provide their personal information, symptoms and concerns. Chhoda noted that patient portals require little training for staff, freeing them to devote more time to patient care.
Reminders
Cancellations, no shows and self-termination of treatment are inevitable in any practice. An EMR enables practices to remind patients automatically of their appointments through text messaging and email, and many systems feature automatic phone reminders.
Insurance verification
Patient insurance coverage runs the gamut from a full range of services to minimal intervention. When clients schedule an appointment, their insurance provider, coverage and eligibility for physical therapy services can be verified. Systems allow for verification on a single client or can be set for automatic batch verifications at the end of each day, all accomplished in real time.
Complete records
A physical therapy EMR provides a complete record for each patient, without the need to rely on patient memory, faxes or the Postal Service to deliver essential information. Therapists have access to a patients complete medical file, along with notes, for more efficient and effective treatments. An EMR can provide labor savings within the practice of up to 30 percent on tasks that require information gathering.
Chhoda is an expert in the implementation of office systems that increase the level of patient care and enhance practice profitability. His new ways of utilizing an electronic medical record for physical therapy services offer therapists valuable insight into additional ways an EMR can benefit the financial health of their clinics, while providing a significantly enhanced level of patient care.
Chhodas office can be reached by phone at 201-535-4475. For more information, visit the website at http://www.emrnews.com.

When Mrs. Ramirez met with American Financial Solutions certified credit counselor Carmen Perales, she and her husband owed $ 30,000 in medical bills. Perales worked with the family to establish a budget and to understand all of their expenses, but that was not all they accomplished.
The Supreme Courts recent ruling in favor of the provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) (visit our website to learn more), provides multiple benefits for consumers. Free preventative care, no waiting periods for care, and no maximum amount of benefits someone can receive in a lifetime. However, those benefits may come at a higher price for other services. Some insurance companies, medical providers and pharmaceutical companies are struggling to reduce their expenses and find a way to shift their increasing costs to consumers.
Every day, American Financial Solutions (AFS) assists people overwhelmed with medical debt. According to Becky House, Education Director for AFS, Nearly everyone we counsel has some sort of medical debt. If it has not been paid, it shows up on their credit report. If it has been paid, it may be hidden in the debt on their credit cards.
In a study published in 2010 by Demos, a non-partisan public policy research and advocacy organization, and The Access Project, a resource center for local communities working to improve health and healthcare access, households with medical debt carried an average of $ 11,612 in credit card debt. Of that amount $ 2,194 is attributed to healthcare expenses.
In March of 2012, the Centers for Disease Control released a report stating that in 2011, one in three persons was in a family experiencing the financial burden of medical care. One in 5 persons was in a family having problems paying medical bills, 1 in 4 persons was in a family paying medical bills over time, and 1 in 10 persons was in a family that had medical bills they were unable to pay at all.
Mrs. Musgrove came to American Financial Solutions in 2007 looking for help to rebuild her credit after filing bankruptcy to eliminate $ 68,000 in medical expenses. Before the bankruptcy, I was actually borrowing money from family to pay collection agencies. I couldnt keep up with the bills. I wanted to pay for the services, but no one would take payments. They all wanted the entire amount – now. I didn’t know there was help available.
As for the Ramirez family, their story ended very differently. After reviewing the familys financial situation, Ms. Perales encouraged them to contact the hospital to whom they owed money and seek charity care or financial assistance. They did and based on their income and family size, the Ramirezes qualified for charity care and the entire debt was eliminated.
Both of these families provide an example as to why it is important to know your medical debt repayment options.
As shown in the Ramirez case, resolution of medical bills does not have to end in bankruptcy or with accounts sent to collection agencies. American Financial Solutions recommends exploring all options for handling the debt. Below are some tips:

I was shot in the chest after leaving a hospital one night, where I worked as an Operating Room Technician & Surgical First Assistant helping people -a lifelong passion of mine- in 1997. The bullet remains over my left lung and without some kind of medical assistance to have this bullet removed, I will die soon. I’ve applied for every kind of assistance I could find and have found no government or private entities who will help me, all to no avail. Even Medicare denied me my benefits, regardless of the fact that that I paid into that heavily for the many years that I was employed (I now live in Colorado, only to find that, for some reason Colorado doesn’t even offer Medicare to single adult men – which should be discriminatorily illegal). In any event, I’ve freely helped people all my life and now, now that I’m the one who desperately needs some help and there is none…? Anybody in our society would think that if they were shot in the chest by some random criminal, that there would be *some* kind of assistance available to them, but there is not I can barely walk, don’t eat much & am badly malnourished. My mother is going out of her mind seeing me like this and I fear that I won’t live much longer. My family & friends will be more than happy to prove to anyone out there who is interested in helping another human being, that I am *very* real, my story is true & I am running out of time… I made this video tonight in a last-ditch effort to save myself from dying at age 44 …
