Have Fun Before the Baby Comes

2010-05-18T00:42:00.000-07:00

You’re pregnant and you’re wondering if it’s alright to travel. Now is definitely the time, actually, before that baby comes and creates chaos in all areas of your life. You should certainly consult with your obstetrician before booking the trip.

As a general rule, it’s alright to travel until your 36^th week, assuming that you are having an uncomplicated, healthy pregnancy.

Assuming that your doctor has given you the go-ahead, keep these tips in mind. As Cinergy Health advises, make sure to stay hydrated, especially if you are flying. Move around every few hours, whether you’re driving in a car or flying somewhere. Otherwise, blood can pool in your legs and that’s certainly not to your benefit. Some doctors recommend compression travel socks as they force blood to your leg’s deep veins and reduce pooling of blood.

Bon voyage and have fun!

Cinergy Health Offers Advice for Diabetics

2010-05-08T02:01:00.000-07:00

If you have a sweet tooth and you are diabetic, you’re certainly up against a challenge. However, with careful planning, you can still have some of the sweets you love and maintain a healthy lifestyle with your diabetes.

While the American Diabetes Association used to show every concern with table sugar, they have now come to explain that it’s the total amount of carbohydrates in the foods that you eat that raises the blood glucose levels.

This means, as Cinergy Health explains, that you need to look at portion sizes and carbohydrate counting. With the right planning and calculations, you can still have some of those sweets that you enjoy. Certainly, however, you don’t want to go crazy and you may want to meet with a nutritionist to figure out exactly how to plan out the meals for each day.

Enjoy your favorite foods so that you don’t end up feeling deprived – but do so in moderation. Consider, as well, using artificial sweeteners more often than sugars for those moments when you want a sugar fix.

Migraine Help is on the Way

2010-04-30T01:55:00.000-07:00

30 million Americans deal with migraine headaches on a regular basis.

1. Learn what triggers your migraines and try to avoid those items. Triggers could include, but are not limited to, caffeine, red wine, chocolate, alcohol and more.

2. Get moving! Exercise can help you to deal with your migraine headaches. Use relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, take breaks from stressful situations and learn to relax more.

3. Respond fast. When a migraine strikes, you may find the best cure to be a nap in a quiet, dark room. Biofeedback and massage can also help.

Pancreatic Cancer & Obesity

2010-04-20T01:54:00.000-07:00

Obesity, as everyone knows, if not healthy. What many people don’t know about obesity, however, is that it can actually increase your chance of getting certain types of cancer – namely pancreatic cancer.

Research has shown that those who are overweight as teens or as young adults are at least twice as likely to develop pancreatic cancer as are people who have never been obese.

Flying Sick

2010-04-03T01:52:00.000-07:00

Flying sick is no laughing matter. Unfortunately, many people today have to make the decision about whether or not to fly sick since they don’t want to miss their trip, and they can’t afford to throw away the non-refundable ticket.

Certainly, if you don’t think you’ll be able to get anything out of the trip, or you’re unable to walk a block or more, you should probably stay home. If you have a terrible anxiety condition caused by flying, you might want to consider cancelling. She says that 1 in 5 people suffer from this anxiety, and that it should be taken into consideration when planning a flight.

“You’re best protected if you consider possible problems ahead of time,” she says, adding that flight or trip cancellation insurance should be considered. Note that many policies have exceptions for pre-existing conditions, so only a “cancel for any reason” policy is likely to cover an anxiety disorder.

Know What Your Medical Plan Covers

2010-03-25T01:51:00.000-07:00

There is a big danger today with your health insurance when you don’t know what the fine print is saying. Often, people get saddled with large bills because they didn’t realize that their lab tests weren’t covered – or they didn’t realize that their doctor wasn’t on their plan.

Be careful to know what is on your plan and what isn’t so you don’t get stuck with unexpected bills.

Health Myths Discussed with Cinergy Health

2010-03-17T00:49:00.000-07:00

While most people agree that you should drink 8 glasses of water every single day – this is not necessarily based in research. It’s most important to know your own body and your own needs. There is no scientific evidence to support the 8 glasses of water a day rule.

Rather, as one study found, the amount of water that you need depends on your specific health issues - you should drink the water over the course of the day and not all at once.

Another discussion about health issues involves exercise. Certainly, exercise is important for your physical fitness. However, you shouldn’t over-exercise and you need to have an appropriate resting period, according to the CDC. If you don’t give your body a break between work outs, you might have bone and muscle injuries and more aches and pains. Cinergy Health recommends, Give yourself a day to recoup. Exercise should give you more strength and power—not drain you.

Children & Obesity

2010-03-10T00:47:00.000-08:00

Cinergy Health explains the psychological dangers of childhood obesity. We all know that there are health risks attached to obesity, but we don’t often focus on the psychological consequences and lasting effects.

Mmany formal studies have suggested a relationship between self esteem and health. Obese teenagers are less likely to use birth control and have higher rates of teen pregnancy; they are more likely to use tobacco and alcohol and to attempt suicide. Obese girls are almost four times more likely than others to suffer major depression and anxiety disorders as adults.

Fortunately, obese children do have a bright future. The government is placing great emphasis on this issue today since childhood obesity is a great economic problem for the health care system, in addition to the psychological consequences and other ramifications. Michelle Obama, the Surgeon General Regina Benjamin, The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Federal Trade Commission, the Food and Drug Administration, and Department of Agriculture are all placing childhood obesity as a high priority.

Cinergy Health Discusses Your Healthcare Options

2010-03-01T02:20:00.000-08:00

Listen as Cinergy Health President Steve Trattner discusses the many healthcare options in America today, and which choices are best for our future.

Yes, You Can Travel Pregnant!

2010-02-21T02:19:00.000-08:00

While some people have the misconception that they shouldn’t travel at all while pregnant, the facts really counter this idea. Certainly, if you have terrible morning sickness and won’t enjoy the trip, or if you are over 36 weeks pregnant, you should probably stay home. In general, however, travel can actually be a great way for a pregnant woman to relax and escape life’s daily stresses.

Before leaving, however, you should definitely check in with your obstetrician. According to Cinergy Health you should “check with your obstetrician to see if there are any special precautions you should take when traveling – especially if you’re going outside of North America or Western Europe.”

In general, a woman has very little risk of having a pregnancy complication up until the 36^th week of pregnancy. So, book your trip and enjoy your time away!

Gardasil Vaccine – To Give Or Not?

2010-02-15T01:33:00.000-08:00

Many parents wonder whether or not they should have their daughter vaccinated with the Gardasil vaccine. Cinergy Health, definitely agrees that the vaccine should be given. The evidence clearly shows that the quadrivalent HPV vaccine prevents cervical intraepithelial neoplasia caused by 70% of known HPV subtypes as well as preventing genital warts - both of which are highly contagious (even without sexual penetration), cause significant distress, substantial cost, and cannot reliably be permanently eliminated.

The five year clinical trial was plenty of time to confirm the safety of the vaccine. The side effects of the vaccine, as she goes on to explain, are grossly overstated by the lay media.

Central Sleep Apnea

2010-02-08T01:32:00.000-08:00

Many people know nothing about central sleep apnea. It’s not the typical type of sleep apnea that is commonly found in adults who are overweight or have other physical issues and who stop breathing during the night. This sleep apnea is a neurological issue where the brain tells the body to stop breathing.

Cinergy Health, explains it is a very rare disease and one that is difficult to access since it is unusual to diagnosis it and it isn’t well-known. One family Ethan and Lisa Swoyer of Topton have dealt with it since their daughter was 18 months old. Now four, Hannah has an oxygen machine that has made her situation much more manageable.

As a result of their experience, the Swoyers have started a nonprofit foundation and they hope that it will raise awareness about central sleep apnea.

Evaluating Healthcare Survival Guides

2010-02-01T01:31:00.000-08:00

If you think you might lose your job soon, or you just have, some people will recommend that you pick up a healthcare survival guide. Such guides attempt to explain your coverage options and how to apply for government healthcare assistance and programs. But, are these guides really useful?

Cinergy Health, recommends that you consider for yourself the type of coverage that you’ll need. While a healthy 25 year old might be alright with a catastrophic insurance plan with a high deductible, a 55 year old with a pre-existing condition probably would not.

These guides do offer some helpful tips and advice. Cinergy Health says that you should certainly look at pharmaceutical web sites for discount offers and get inexpensive dental coverage with college dental programs. You may also be able to get discounts from your doctors, if these are doctors you’ve seen for a long time.

Cultural Differences with HPV Vaccines

2010-01-24T01:30:00.000-08:00

Two new studies should help health care providers, such as Cinergy Health, to target their services to minority groups in a better way. A recent study from UCLA and one from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, show that there are lower rates of HPV vaccination in low-income populations. In addition, they show specific vaccine barriers in these communities that might help to increase vaccine uptake.

"We need interventions that help primary care teams to identify eligible patients and encourage the teen to receive all three doses. We need to take advantage of every opportunity where a teen comes into a clinic and offer all recommended adolescent vaccines," said Jasmin A. Tiro, Ph.D., assistant professor of clinical sciences at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas.

The UCLA study found that minority groups do receive the HPV vaccine as often as the national averages, but that they lack much of the knowledge that they could easily acquire about the vaccine. The Dallas study found that, in low-income populations where the vaccine is certainly available, there is still a poor uptake of the three-dose vaccine and a lack of encouragement to get vaccinated by health care providers.

Prevent Obesity in 2010

2010-01-17T01:54:00.000-08:00

Know Your Rights at Work

2010-01-14T02:10:00.000-08:00

Certainly, you'll do everything you can to avoid getting the flu this winter. Should you become sick, however, it's important to know your employer's sick leave policy. Cinergy Health offers these suggestions for staying healthy and protecting yourself this winter.

If you feel the flu coming on, don't go to work! You may need to explain to your employer why you are taking off, and how important it is for you to make sure not to infect others. Cinergy Health points out that you are most contagious while feverish, and that you should remain at home for a full 24 hours after your fever has passed.

Make sure to review your office sick policies before you get sick. Talk to your boss to ensure that you won't be penalized for staying home and make sure that your boss understands the best ways to ensure a healthy office.

New Senate Health Bill

2010-01-12T02:08:00.000-08:00

Good news for the uninsured. A new Senate health care bill would require nonprofit hospitals to charge patients who are uninsured no more than the lowest charge that they have for their insured patients. Hospitals have come under a lot of scrutiny as of late for overcharging the uninsured. These charges have ended up in lawsuits.

This bill tries to eliminate those issues. A 2007 study in the journal Health Affairs suggested that hospitals were actually charging the uninsured 2.5 times what insured patients were paying. Cinergy Health however, points out that "these fees are often negotiated, and can be negotiated way down." Time will tell if the bill passes and if it makes a difference.

Tips for a Great Trip from Cinergy Health

2010-01-10T01:51:00.000-08:00

If you’re hoping to hit the slopes this winter, Cinergy Health, offers great advice. You’ll want to stay as healthy as you can before your trip, so that you can enjoy yourself. Certainly, you’ll also want to stay healthy during the trip. Here, Cinergy Health offers important tips for doing just that.

Remember to check your health insurance before your vacation begins. You’ll want to confirm that you are covered in case of a medical emergency. If your policy isn’t sufficient, look into getting additional travel health and accident coverage.

Continue eating healthy, even while you are on vacation. Just because you are having fun doesn’t mean that you can’t treat your body well. When you eat, do so slowly. Skip the bread or share a piece with someone else. Try not to waste too many calories on alcoholic or sweet drinks. You can enjoy one drink, but don't go overboard. Order a salad or a light soup as an appetizer and share dessert, if you feel that you must have something sweet.

Have a great trip!

Preparing for a Winter Trip

2010-01-08T01:47:00.000-08:00

If you’re hoping to travel this winter, do so with these health tips. Dr. Margaret Lewin, the medical director at Cinergy Health, wants to make sure that you stay healthy whether you’re on the slopes, in the sun, or somewhere in between.

Don’t go outside without a good sunscreen. Sun exposure puts you at risk for skin cancers, and can also be a major cause of premature wrinkles. If you’re out skiing, the combination of high altitudes and reflected light from the snow offers very damaging UVA and UVB rays.

If you’re planning to have an active trip, says the Cinergy Health medical director, make sure to get in shape beforehand. Concentrate on exercises that protect your knees, hips and your balance and make sure that you’re ready for the adventures ahead!

Insurance Coverage After Job Loss

2010-01-06T01:43:00.000-08:00

Certainly, losing a job makes things very difficult for many reasons. One of the reasons that it is most stressful is the lack of health insurance. When you lose your job - you also lose your health coverage. Cinergy Health President and Chief Marketing Officer, Steve Trattner, offers these specific suggestions for dealing with job and insurance loss.

Cinergy Health CMO Trattner recommends that you weigh deductibles against premiums. You might be able to find a new insurance plan with a high deductible and a very affordable premium. The problem with this is that it will provide coverage for large scale medical needs, but not for your routine healthcare issues.

You should look into your COBRA options as well. It's possible that you can continue to have coverage from your old employer, at least for a bit of time. This can help you to reduce one item of stress while looking for a new job.

Insurance Issues with Job Loss

2010-01-04T01:52:00.000-08:00

First, consider your short term needs. Short Term Medical plans are available which last for 6-12 months and cost less than major medical plans do. If you think you’ll need a short term solution between jobs, this might be a good option for you. You might also want to research into low-cost limited medical plans. These are plans which provide coverage for your immediate needs like routine doctor visits and short-term hospital says. They do so with no deductible

Cinergy Health Doctor Endorses Networking for Better Care

2009-12-31T16:47:00.000-08:00

As new technologies enter our lives at an increasingly faster pace, it is worthwhile to step back for a moment and reflect whether this particular innovation is actually improving our lives or not.

Take, as an example, social networking tools such as Twitter, Facebook and YouTube. In and of themselves, they are neither good nor bad. Rather, it is how and for what they are used which defines their value.

The latest use of social networking is as a tool of the health-care profession. Dr. Erika Schwartz, a director and specialist in internal medicine at Cinergy Health has an opinion on this issue.

``If it doesn't serve the patient, using it (the social networking tool) is unacceptable. Sometimes, we all get carried away with the novelty of something.''

Her caution does not mean that she is against the use of social networking tools when they do enhance communication, information distribution and well-being. Dr. Schwartz has her own Facebook page, and she uses her e-mail account to keep in touch with her patients. She has found that many doctor visits can be eliminated when patients can ask their questions and express their concerns through her email account.

``The Internet is a great opportunity to create a better connection between doctors and patients,''

Schwartz says.

``I'm a big fan of social networking. It reaches people. There's a lot of information that can be shared. But it's got to be done with respect to the doctor-patient relationship.''

Cinergy Health Offers Ways to Stop the Spread of Flu at Work

2009-12-27T01:51:00.000-08:00

Certainly, in a tight economy, people feel the pressure to come to work, even if they are sick. This can put others at risk, however, and can make it more likely that the flu virus will spread this winter. Cinergy Health offer sound advice to keep flu at bay this winter – even as you continue working in a large office environment.

Getting the flu vaccine can certainly help with prevention. In addition, Cinergy Health recommend that you get plenty of rest this winter and eat a balanced diet. Proper nutrition helps your immune system to stay strong.

Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough and sneeze, and teach others in your office to do so as well. If you don’t have a tissue available, cough into your sleeve, not into your hand. This will prevent the spread of germs as much as possible. These are a few of the many tips that can help you to stay healthy this winter.

Parent Vaccine Fears Unnecessary, Cinergy Health Says

2009-12-23T01:20:00.000-08:00

Certainly, there is a great deal of buzz this year about the H1N1 vaccine. Should you vaccinate your children? Should you have both the H1N1 vaccine and the regular flu vaccine? According to the Chief Medical Director of Cinergy Health, Dr. Margaret Lewin, you should certainly have your children vaccinated for both types of flu.

Dr. Lewin explains that H1N1 is quite dangerous for children, and that it makes sense to protect kids against risks that can be avoided. As this Cinergy Health Director explains, “Are you really going to risk your child’s well-being? This flu vaccine is being tested widely. Why wouldn’t you want your child to have as much immunity as possible?”

Both vaccines can be administered on the same day. Doctors recommend that pregnant women, people of all ages with health issues, the elderly, people who have children under six months of age, health professions and people who are 24 years old and under get the H1N1 vaccine. They should get the seasonal flu vaccine as well as the swine flu vaccine.

Smooth Doctor Visits with Cinergy Health Recommendations

2009-12-16T04:32:00.000-08:00

Whether you’re switching doctors or just going to your regular doctor for a visit, it’s always a good idea to plan ahead. Cinergy Health, helps parents to approach their doctor’s visits in a more organized and comprehensive fashion.

When you first start with a new doctor, you need to verbally give the doctor a detailed medical history for the child (or yourself) and physically hand over your file, if you have it, from your previous doctor. It should include allergies, surgeries you’ve had, serious illnesses, family medical history, medications you take, and more.

Bring an organized list with you of all of your questions and issues, and try not to steer from the list. You might even want to give the doctor a copy of the list. If the doctor offers advice or recommendations, make sure to repeat his words so that you are sure you understand what he is saying. If you are given new medications, ask a lot of questions. You need to know what the side effects might be and check that the new medicine doesn’t interfere with anything you are currently taking.

Using these recommendations from Cinergy Health one should have a more productive and successful doctor visit each time you go for a checkup.

Lifestyle Changes Really Can Reduce Health Care Costs

2009-12-09T02:58:00.000-08:00

As the nation wrestles with health care reform, doctors and health professionals have pinpointed important ways that individuals can help to reduce the national health care price tag. By taking better care of yourself, and by eliminating or moderating certain lifestyle choices, we can actually minimize health care expenses.

Here, we explore a few key ways that we can help to reduce the national health care cost. According to the CDC, excessive alcohol consumption is the third leading lifestyle-related cuase of death in the United States each year. As the medical director for Cinergy Health, Dr. Margaret Lewin explains, "Nearly a quarter of general hospital admissions in the country are either directly or indirectly related to alcoholism," said Lewin.

Another culprit to our health is salt. Excessive sodium consumption can lead to many health concerns, including hypertension, high blood pressure and other cardiovascular diseases. Adults should only consume 2300 mg, or about a teaspoon, of salt each day, according to the Institute of Medicine. Cinergy Health expert Dr. Lewin explains that "Heart disease and strokes are the first and third leading causes of death in the United States" and that "…the total cost to health care to treat both these diseases is as high as $475 billion a year."

Cinergy Health Encouraging Protection Against Swine Flu This Winter

2009-12-03T23:59:00.000-08:00

Winter is about to begin and flu season is upon us. This year there is widening concern that Swine Flu, or H1N1 virus is highly virulent and can cause death more readily than typical flu viruses we have encountered in the past. Nevertheless, it appears that many people are choosing not to vaccinate themselves or their children.
People have become complacent Cinergy Health, a health insurance company that stresses preventive health care.

"Today's families are too young to remember the fatalities and disabilities that can result from influenza."

There are many children whose parents have decided not to vaccinate them for the other viruses of childhood, such as measles or rubella, and no serious repercussions have appeared.

“They are benefiting from 'herd immunity. If the majority of a school is vaccinated against a particular illness, then the un-immunized will also be protected--unless they travel to a country where a particular disease is more widespread.”

In many cases parents are worried that the vaccines themselves may cause illness, such as the development of Guillain-Barre syndrome. However this notion seems to be misguided, with scientists now stating that any connection that was apparent between the “swine flu” vaccine of the winter of 1976-77 and Guillain-Barre was overblown.

"Statistically, we know that a certain number of people are going to encounter various health problems, with or without receiving a vaccine."

The government is preparing baseline statistics to see what types of illnesses or other reactions would have happened anyway, even without administering the vaccine. Hopefully this will assuage concerns that the vaccines caused any harm.

To alleviate fears and encourage people to get vaccinated against H1N1 the government is watching the situation closely. According to a National Vaccine Program spokesman, who stated on CBS’ “60 Minutes,” out of 10 million swine flu doses that have already been administered, there have been no notable problems.

Cinergy Health: You Can Loose Weight at Work

2009-11-25T00:00:00.000-08:00

Anyone who sits all day at a desk knows how easy it is to gain weight there. Snacks help get us through the day by helping us stay alert and focused, but the snacks we eat are usually not of the most nutritions kind.

If we get very focused on a project or task, we might work right through our lunch break, and then when we finally do eat we eat too much of fast food which can also be highly caloric.

Even eating properly is hazardous if we really sit all day, our only exercise being the trip to the cooler or coffee machine.

for some tips and advice on how to eat better and get exercise while on the job, take a look at this fascinating article: "Lose Weight While You Work? It Can Be Done!"

Cinergy Health Praises Obama’s Call for Cost Control and Competition

2009-11-12T03:48:00.000-08:00

Commenting on President Barak Obama’s position concerning health care insurance in the nation, Cinergy Health expressed his approval of remarks made by the President at a press conference held in Aventura, Florida this past June.

"As politicians from both sides of the aisle debate the nuances of the health care proposal put forth by the nation's chief executive, Cinergy Health is pleased to see Mr. Obama remind us all what the central issues are in this issue which is crucial to our country. The President pointed to the imperative to control costs while encouraging competition in the health insurance marketplace, which will, in turn, result in consumers having more and better choices of health care benefits plans. Mr. Obama indicated that traditional health insurance companies seem to spend more time finding ways not to cover pre-existing conditions than providing health care for people when it is needed. Beyond saying that is patently wrong, Cinergy Health has taken the bold step to provide a solution,"

Medicare fees

2009-11-05T11:28:00.000-08:00

Medicare physician payments have been the topic of discussion between Democrats and Republicans recently. The health care plans of the Obama administration as well as the whole Democratic Party have undergone a number of changes in the year since Obama was elected president, and now there are further "cosmetic changes" being made by the Democrats.

The Democrats realize that it is essential for them to minimize the opposition to the health care reforms in order to push through the bulk of the health care plans that they have been working on. One of the areas that they are addressing is the planned pay cuts to physicians.

The Medicare program that cares for the less established sick relies heavily on the doctors who join the Medicare program by taking on a patient load through Medicare. Physicians and patients alike, and especially health insurance executives like those at Cinergy Health, know that cutting physicians' fees on Medicare poses a danger to the entire Medicare system.

Cinergy Health in New York says that talk of pay cuts for Medicare physicians "has been terrorizing doctors for a number of years." Pay cuts will lead to physicians cutting their Medicare patient load.

This is one of the reasons that Congress has routinely suspended Medicare physician pay cuts since 2003.

Tips For a Healthier Halloween from Cinergy Health

2009-10-28T22:43:00.000-07:00

Cinergy Health' has a number of tips to give parents as the Halloween holiday approaches. No matter how much you try or explain to your children, Halloween almost always means eating far too many candies. Not only does eating too many candies mean that you will put on weight, but it also has many negative effects on your teeth and your overall health. Furthermore, when it comes to children, too much sugar as well as the artificial ingredients that are the backbone of all sweets and candies can have a direct and fast effect on their behavior.

Indeed, Halloween is the time of year to heed all the nutritionists who advise parents how to weather the festive season without too many illnesses or teeth cavities. Cinergy Health suggests parents that to look after themselves and their children they should buy treats that they don’t particularly like. This makes it easier to resist the sweets.

Cinergy Health, made the media rounds recently to issue recommendations for kids and adults alike to avoid gorging on candy. Buy treats “that you don’t particularly like, making it easier to resist.”

Some further recommendations are to give toys instead of candies and taste one of the candies to get an idea of what it is about, and then throw the rest away!

Health care with Cinergy Health Insurance

2009-10-20T12:56:00.000-07:00

I really must make sure that one of the more essential things that I need to worry about at my work is taken care of. When I was considering all my options, and I had applied to a number of new positions at different companies, I made sure to inquire about the health care plans that were part of the contracts. I have never moved a muscle or lived a day without a health care plan – and it is one of the very basic facts of life that I know I must take care of. Unfortunately we see that the news is full of the discussions and debates over the health care reforms, and you don't want to be one of the many Americans who lack efficient health care plans – or even a health plan at all. Also, I know of many businesses – and I have even experienced this myself – where they simply are unable to offer plans that will deal with most eventualities.

Health care is costing more and more, and the insurance premiums are often a real financial drain that make it very difficult for individuals to sign up to the plans that will offer them the coverage they know they want and need. Even many businesses are finding it difficult in the current economic climate to sign up to the plans and insurance programs that their employees want and need. Cinergy Health Insurance is a welcome change that can revolutionize the whole health insurance industry. What Cinergy Health does is offer the plans that cover the most often needed treatments and medications, so that when you need to find health insurance that covers all the essentials and also offers you big savings, Cinergy Health Inc. is the company that allows you to be safe and secure with the knowledge that you are fortunate to have affordable health care and insurance premiums that allow you to live.
