Employee benefits are an important part of any job.

Substance Abuse Treatment Is Covered by More Companies as Employers Increase Mental Health Benefits to Combat the Stressors of COVID-19

REDWOOD CITY, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Lionrock Behavioral Health, Inc., the leading telehealth provider of substance use disorder (SUD) treatment and recovery services in the United States predicts a 100 percent increase in company-accessed online substance abuse benefits in 2021, as stigma surrounding mental health treatment drops amid the pandemic.

Prior to the Coronavirus crisis, a mental health movement was already well underway in work cultures across the United States. Since the pandemic took hold, attention on mental health and wellness has only increased, pushing employers further – to expand mental health benefits in order to keep a healthy and productive staff. Mental health encompasses much more than anxiety and mood disorders; it also includes substance use disorders. Over 40 percent of people with a substance use disorder also have a second mental health condition, yet fewer than half (48 percent) receive treatment for either disorder.

Yvonne Cintron is the call-center supervisor for Benefits Data Trust, a nonprofit that helps connect people in need to public benefits.

Gentry, 59, is separated and lives with two of her five adult children. Gentrification in her up-and-coming neighborhood is causing the taxes on the house she and her husband bought years ago to skyrocket. Meanwhile, COVID-19 has affected her children’s ability to stay employed.

“It was a struggle,” she said.

Then came what she called a “miracle” in the mail.

A letter from out of the blue informed Gentry, who worked on a clean-up crew at Lincoln Financial Field before illness struck, that she might be eligible for public benefits. A

Dear Dietitian: Considering the benefits of magnesium supplements, creams – Opinion – Austin American-Statesman

| Health Benefits

Dear Dietitian,

I take a magnesium supplement and sometimes soak in Epsom salt for joint pain. I read an article that said the only way the body can absorb magnesium is through the skin. Is that true? Should I buy a magnesium cream instead of a dietary supplement?

John

Dear John,

There’s nothing like a warm, relaxing Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate) bath after a good workout. Magnesium is a mineral needed by the body for several functions, including muscle and nerve function, bone mineralization and building protein. One of magnesium’s most common uses is to relieve constipation. Magnesium is in every cell and has a vital role in energy metabolism. It also has a role in oral health by building strong tooth enamel. Food sources of the mineral include nuts, legumes, whole grains, dark green vegetables, seafood and chocolate.

Magnesium requirements vary by age. Adult men need 420 mg per

It’s one of the smallest cost of living increases since 1975.

WASHINGTON, D.C., USA — Social security recipients will see a 1.3% increase in their benefits in 2021. It’s one of the smallest cost of living increases since 1975.

While these kind of bumps are always bad news for seniors; Consumer Investigator Danielle Serino explains that the Coronavirus pandemic has made it even harder for them to stretch their checks.

Dana Showalter and his wife Barb are used to budgeting, both are retired, on fixed incomes, and depending on a cost of living increase in their Social Security benefits to make ends meet.

But 1.3%?  Well, that’s not even close to covering expenses.

And when he heard of the increase, Dana said, “I don’t know whether to laugh or to cry. Because seniors have become the most neglected minority there is.”

Together, they get about $2,000 a month, which they

How Viagra’s repositioning brought unexpected benefits

Marketers need to reflect evolving social attitudes and expectations, including a greater openness to discussing personal and emotional topics in order to form more meaningful relationships with consumers; it’s in that context that Viagra has undergone a strategic transformation.

The Upjohn UK division of Pfizer Inc., the pharmaceutical manufacturer, has sought to expand the legacy audience of the erectile-dysfunction remedy (which largely had become older men) and bring a new tone to messaging, while also re-adjusting the focus from sexual gratification to emotional relief.

At Advertising Week 2020, Rob Elliott, Upjohn UK/Pfizer marketing director, explained how the brand’s research had illuminated not just how much of a taboo subject erectile problems are, but how much they affect men and their mental health and relationships.

“We were really hit by that,” said Elliott of the finding that opened the way for Viagra to explore a new interpretation of masculinity – and

DUBLIN, Oct. 13, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — The “Electronic Health Information Exchange Market” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

This report examines the technology, technology providers, and market trends in Electronic Health Information Exchange (HIE) services.

This report evaluates the current industry trends in HIE products and services. It also identifies the key vendors and their strategies. The report also answers the basic questions: What is an Electronic Healthcare Record (EHR)?, What is an EHR database?, and Why is there a need for an HIE?

Simply stated, an Electronic Health Record (EHR) is a digital version of a patient’s paper chart. While many leading companies are increasingly moving towards digital retention of records via EHR databases, information is typically available only within a closed system. In other words, medical facilities that are not part of the same group often cannot exchange data between their EHR systems.

Benefits to rise 1.3% next year

CLOSE

With a rapidly growing aging population, securing Social Security funds is now more crucial than ever. But how did we get here in the first place?

USA TODAY

Next year will bring another paltry rise in Social Security checks for older Americans already struggling financially with the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The 68 million people – including retirees, as well as disabled people and others – who rely on Social Security will receive a 1.3% cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) next year, the Social Security Administration said Tuesday. Increases have been modest for years because of persistently low inflation

For the average retiree who got a check of $1,523 this year, that would mean an additional $20 a month, SSA said. 

The 1.3% COLA is the smallest since 2017 and slightly below the 1.4% average over the past decade, a period of unusually low inflation, according to the Senior Citizens
