Eye-Opening Lessons from Arches ‘Ask the ACA Experts’ Telethon on KUTV Channel 2

Last Tuesday Arches held an-all day ‘Ask the Experts’ telethon on KUTV Channel 2 giving the public a chance to ask questions about the Affordable Care Act. The all-day event offers important lessons on the public’s need for help navigating their choices on the new marketplace for insurance…

- The Utah public may not be ready for October 1, when enrollment is open on the new marketplace.
- The key to engaging the young immortals may be their parents and grandparents.
- Seniors are scared about changes to Medicare, though they have no reason to be.
- As a community, we need to have something coherent to say to the many Utahns who would qualify for the Medicaid expansion if state leaders choose to opt in. For now, Arches would suggest these individuals connect with policy groups working on this issue like Utah Health Policy Project

5 Terms Every CFO Should Know

As the full implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) gets closer, CFOs are taking upon a stronger role with those they are responsible for, recognizing that this new law directly impacts human resources, finance, internal audit and tax. Many CFOs are estimating that it may take up to 18 months to budget, plan and implement compliance-driven changes. With open enrollment starting in October 2013, understanding the basic terms of the ACA must be at the forefront of every CFO’s agenda.

The Importance of Eating Healthy and Being Active

One of the most frustrating yet potentially powerful conversations I have with patients is about their lifestyle. It is not uncommon for me on a daily basis to discuss patients poor lifestyle and how it is affecting not only their health but their wallet. Being sick costs a lot of money and good years of life. It is estimated 2/3 of us in the USA are either obese (BMI 30+) or overweight (BMI 26-30). Along with being overweight, there is an increased risk of high blood pressure, diabetes, arthritis, high cholesterol, heart disease, stroke, cancer, sleep apnea, heart failure, depression, liver disease, menstrual problems, infertility, gallbladder problems, etc. Holy-smokes, that is a boat load of problems and all because of me not doing the things every day to invest in myself.

Are You a Person or a Part??

I remember back when I was going to Medical School in Wisconsin. I had grown up in a nice area of Salt Lake City and was raised around a number of physicians who were great specialists in different areas of medicine. One of those was the best back surgeon in town and the other was an outstanding Perinatologist. I remember saying, “I will never be a primary care doctor!” I thought primary care was the type of medicine practiced by those who had no other options and lacked the intelligence of a quality medical student. I thought, “If you were really smart you obviously chose to go into a specialty that made lots of money!” My uneducated dream choice was to go into Anesthesia because I knew some anesthesiologists that made a great living and seemed to have a pretty sweet lifestyle. That’s what I hoped I would fall in love with.
