Health Care News

There is a lot of news going on in health care and I will highlight the findings below.

First of all, Covid-19 hospitalized patients are now receiving rhemes of bills!!! People are spending hours on the phone trying to get codes changed and speak with doctors and hospital personnel. They are frustrated and confused, and this is where a health advocate could be helpful. We know how to look at bills, obtain code changes, negotiate the bill down, and look for unusual charges. The reason codes of Covid 19 must be used is because the insurance company will pay the full bill, but, if the bill is not coded properly, the patient’s deductibles, coinsurance, and copayments will apply. This is serious because some hospitals are going after some patients’ estates to get paid.

If you are struggling with hospital or doctor bills, please reach out to Health Advocate Experts. Our mission is to help you receive the health care and insurance benefits you deserve. We can help!

Secondly, during Covid -19, most people did not go to a dentist, and allowed poor oral health to take root. The mouth holds lots of bacteria, microorganisms and foods that interact with other parts of the body. Eating a poor diet, destroys the micro-biome, and it is only recently that scientists have begun to understand how the health of our mouth is a microcosm of our overall health. For example, gum disease has been linked to Alzheimer’s Disease, diabetes, and heart disease. What we eat, how we live, and our financial security is inextricably linked to our overall health, social and psychological well-being. Please see your dentist.

Third, gene therapy is moving forward! Scientists have partly restored sight to a blind man while he wore clumsy goggles and it is the result of 13 years of work. Scientists “built light-catching proteins in one eye” which allowed the man to partly see.

This is exciting news and was published in the Journal Nature’s Medicine.

This work will lead potentially to new medicines and replications.

Will Doctors Ever Learn

07 May, 2024

This past weekend, the New York Times identified many people who believe their new debilitating symptoms are due to the Covid vaccine. I cannot stress enough, that everything doesn’t work for everyone. Many people can go to a doctor and get natural things done and get better. Other people do better in the current medical system. Yet, it is very wrong for physicians to tell people, they are crazy, or it’s in their head. Just because the US hasn’t documented the symptoms people are experiencing from the RNA Covid shot, doesn’t mean their symptoms don’t exist. Some people are experiencing neurological, cardiovascular, and autoimmune symptoms. Everyone’s bodies are different. Other countries, like Israel, Europe and Hong Kong who have centralized systems have documented people who have myocarditis, tinnitus, severe shingles, bell’s palsy, and some show continued deterioration of the heart cavity. About 13,000 cases exist, out of the 677 million Covid shots received in the U.S. Some scientists are concerned that people’s symptoms are being ignored.
