keepingcurrent Food Insecurity Among Our Seniors Is Too Important To Ignore
In response to numerous proposals to reduce SNAP on a federal level, our state and local governments often scramble to find funding available to maintain these programs for our seniors. After all, seniors comprise a significant voting bloc in America, and have a very strong and effective voice through organizations like AARP, FRAC and Feeding America.
By Paule T. Pachter, A.C.S.W., L.M.S.W. Chief Executive Officer Long Island Cares, Inc. The Harry Chapin Regional Food Bank 10 Davids Drive – Harry Chapin Way Hauppauge, New York 11788 Office: 631.582.3663 x 101 www.licares.org
There have been several articles published by our colleagues at Feeding America and the Food Research and Action Center (FRAC), describing food insecurity rates and risk factors among older adults; the connection between food insecurity and health among older adults; and the effectiveness of some of the federal nutrition programs in alleviating food insecurity and supporting healthcare for this at-risk population. Poverty, food insecurity, and poor nutrition have potentially harmful impacts on the health and well-being of older adults, which can limit their ability to work, perform daily activities, and live independently. Older adults with limited finances, adequate community resources, and a limited social support system often interfere with their ability to maintain good health. According to Feeding America, in 2019, 1 in 11 older adults, or 9.5% of the population age 50-59, are food insecure. Between 2018 and 2019, the number of food insecure older adults declined from 4.5 million in 2018 to 4.0 million in 2019. Long Island Cares, Inc. estimates that approximately 54,000 seniors living in Nassau and Suffolk Counties experience food insecurity and rely upon the emergency food network for ongoing support. On a monthly basis, 1,950
seniors visit our satellite locations in Freeport, Lindenhurst, Huntington Station, Hampton Bays and Bethpage to access food, personal care items, household supplies, and pet food. Twice per month, our Mobile Pantry delivers groceries to 86 households of seniors that are homebound and have difficulty traveling to a local food pantry. Being food insecure can lead to mental and physical health conditions such as diabetes, depression, hypertension, congestive heart failure and accidents. Seniors struggling with food insecurity also experience more frequent hospitalizations and emergency room visits. Federal programs such as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Congregate Nutrition Program, Home-Delivered Nutrition Program, Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP), Senior Farmer’s Market Nutrition Program, and the Child and Adult Care Food Program provide a lifeline to seniors living alone and often isolated. For a wide array of health outcomes, food insecure seniors were worse-off than food secure seniors.
In November 2020, Long Island Cares implemented our S.O.S. (Supporting Our Seniors) Mobile Food Delivery Services throughout Nassau and Suffolk County. In establishing this model with support from our state legislative delegation, we were able to stabilize the environment for many seniors and to ensure that they continue to have access to emergency food assistance which also increased due to the COVID-19 pandemic. When it comes to hunger and seniors, we need to develop broad and creative approaches that both ensure that services are available, in addition to defining achievable outcomes. Long Island Cares provides home delivery of groceries for our seniors through S.O.S., Mobile Pantry, and Veterans Outreach. We continue to collaborate with allied organizations such as AARP Long Island Chapter and local townships to meet the needs of seniors for healthy food options. In addition, each time we make a home delivery our staff and volunteers’ asses each household for additional services that can address the other needs that seniors might have. It is critical that we continue to provide the necessary government funding, coordinated services, flexible program models, compassion and advocacy for a population that sometimes feels helpless to effect change.

A quote that rings in my head daily that I would like to leave you with from Robert Kennedy: “Few will have the greatness to bend history itself, but each of us can work to change a small portion of events. It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.”

keepingcurrent 5 Hacks For Meal Planning Your Week - So That You Can Show Up Organized And In Control Without Giving Up Half Your Sunday. By Lety Algeri Holistic Health Coach CEO and Founder Lety Algeri Coaching Lety@LetyAlgeri.com www.LetyAlgeriCoaching.com PLANNING and ORGANIZING are what’s HOLDING ME BACK from my HEALTH. That is what I heard from 5 different people this week alone. I am too busy, overwhelmed, and tired to plan anything. I feel like I’m drowning and can’t get ahead of it. It’s so true, when you don’t plan your week it tends to plan for you. Fail to Plan and Your Planning to Fail But sometimes the thought of spending half a day meal prepping and setting yourself up for the week is just too much. Want to know why you feel this way…because you are stuck in the old methods and myths of meal planning. ● Meal planning is complicated and takes up half my Sunday ● Meal planning means I need to be creative and come up with tons of meals ● Meal planning means I need to cook elaborate meals… lots of time in the kitchen ● Meal planning is a dreaded chore ● Meal planning leads to an overwhelming and complicated grocery shopping trip
If that was true I wouldn’t want to do it either. I’m here to bust those myths and give you 5 hacks for meal planning your week so that you can show up organized and in control of your food without giving up half your Sunday. #1 Having a Plan Doesn’t Mean Having to Cook a Gourmet Meal: What can you put on the menu for the week that is super fast? ● Previously made meals from the freezer ● An express meal that takes under 15 minutes to make ● Crock Pot option ● Left-overs #2 Make a Master List Of All Your Favorite Meals: This allows you to avoid the hardest part of meal planning which is the thinking part. #3 Get Rid of the Perfectionist Mindset Health is not all or nothing. Doing a little bit at a time goes a long way. So you only planned 2 meals this week! That’s a win. Make a double batch of each and now you have 4 meals planned or freeze half for next time. #4 Schedule 15 Minutes on Friday 15 minutes is all it takes to show up organized, planned, and in control of your week. Don’t wait until Sunday evening when you are annoyed the weekend is over, exhausted, and already feel behind. Set up a quick plan on Friday so you can feel ahead of the game when Monday comes (and you can beat those Sunday shoppers). #5 Simplify the Process
These days so much of our shopping is done online why not order your groceries online too. Chances are your family eats the same 10 meals over and over again so take advantage of the “Shop past orders” feature and get your shopping done in under 5 minutes! At the end of the day if you want to be successful at anything you have to plan for it. But planning your meals does not have to be a drag or take forever. It’s the ONE THING you can do to accelerate your results Because being prepared #1: Stops you from sabotaging your health with take-out, drive-through, and restaurant food that doesn’t support your health goals #2: Saves you LOTS of time and money. #3: Gives you control of what you are eating (And feeding your family) #4: Streamlines shopping and decreases food waste. #5: Prevents decision fatigue - which always leads to bad choices. The oh no, it’s 5 PM, what’s for dinner syndrome? - let’s order in. If you are ready to make a shift in your health make meal planning the ONE THING you focus on this week and see how it goes.

keepingcurrent 2021 Was a Record-Breaking Year for M&A By Vincent Costa, Esq. and Marc Saracino, Esq. Senior Associates Campolo, Middleton & McCormick, LLP (631) 738-9100 vcosta@cmmllp.com msaracino@cmmllp.com
2021 was a record-breaking year for M&A deals. Global deal value rose to an unprecedented $5 trillion, smashing the previous record of $4 trillion set in 2007. In the United States alone, deal value records rose to $2.6 trillion, doubling the deal value of 2020.
May 2022 - The HIA-LI Reporter Page 10
Given that new records were set in the United States and all over the world in 2021, demand for M&A deals is clearly on the rise and many business owners and private equity firms are racing to find undervalued targets in 2022. You may have already heard about Microsoft’s recent plans to acquire Activision Blizzard, one of the largest video game companies in the United States, for $68.7 billion, and that’s not all that’s swirling in the M&A-sphere in the first half of 2022. Some potential M&A targets for 2022 include well-known companies such as the fitness giant, Peloton, Kohl’s, and a leader in clean technology, Petroteq Energy (with offers already presented to Kohl’s and Petroteq).
and an abundance of capital are paving the way for dealmaking opportunities across the technology sector in 2022.
partnership focused on acquiring vet practices around the tri-state area.
Tech advancements led to significant industry growth in 2021, which means more M&A deals in 2022. PwC predicts hotspots in the areas of crypto and NFTs as emerging markets are established. Moreover, with the pandemic coming to an end, business owners will begin to seek opportunities for consolidation, which will lead to an insurgence of M&A deals in 2022.
According to Digital Health Business & Technology’s data, there have already been 65 M&A deals in the digital health sphere in the first quarter of 2022. Additionally, several healthcare companies have been named targets for 2022 such as Health Gorilla and Summus Global.
CMM attorneys were at the forefront of the tech M&A wave in 2021, representing an artificial intelligence tech leader in a complex recapitalization and M&A transaction in which CMM helped negotiate the terms of a multimilliondollar loan agreement. As for how tech deals are already playing out, Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard could be the biggest tech/ entertainment M&A deal in 2022. Another hot M&A deal announced in Q1 is Sony’s plan to buy Bungie, a gaming company, for $3.6 billion. Citrix, the cloud computing and virtualization company, has reported that they are being acquired by private equity firms Vista Equity Partners and Evergreen Coast Capital for $16.5 billion. Healthcare & Pharmaceuticals
Let’s take a look at the some of the heavy hitters that are already making headlines in the following key sectors, as well some deals that are on deck: Technology
Deals in this sector rose to $288.9 billion in the US with SPAC (Special Purpose Acquisition Company) mergers playing a strong role in driving activity. In their 2022 M&A outlook, PwC predicts healthcare services consolidation and re-sale to lead M&A deals within this sector. We will also likely see more cross-border expansion and consolidation of private clinic and specialist care providers.
Technology was a coveted industry for US and global M&A deals in 2021. According to the PwC Global M&A 2022 outlook, new market opportunities, tech convergence,
Proving the trend predictions correct, CMM already successfully represented a New York vet practice in the multimillion-dollar sale of its business to a larger
Manufacturing & Aerospace Within the manufacturing industry, PwC also predicts strong M&A activity in 2022 as companies target vertical integration and operational consolidations. Likewise, as air passenger numbers increase in 2022, M&A activity in the aerospace and defense industry will also increase. CMM attorneys recently represented a leading manufacturer in the sale of its business, assets, and property, resulting in a multimillion-dollar transaction. The team also negotiated and closed a complex transaction in the aerospace field, selling a family-owned aerospace supplier’s business to a Connecticut-based private equity firm. As for deals already happening in the first quarter of 2022, Frontier Airlines and Spirit Airlines, the two largest discount carriers in the United States, have announced a merger in a deal valued at $6.6 billion. Private flying is also growing more common, a trend already reflected in aerospace M&A with Vista Global Holding announcing their acquisition of the U.S. charter operator Jet Edge for an undisclosed amount. With the second quarter of 2022 underway, we already see 2022 M&A heating up. Looking to buy or sell a business? Contact our firm for guidance: (631) 738-9100.

In January 2021 a new federal law called the “SECURE ACT” went into effect that dramatically changed the 401(k) market for small companies sponsoring their own plans, and companies looking to start a plan.

The managed care model of healthcare and insurance have taken their toll on most Long Island businesses and their employees. What started out as single-digit copays for primary care, specialist, outpatient, and inpatient stays has morphed into significant out-of-pocket costs and premiums.
Insurers pointed at the members indicating that ‘utilization’ was to blame. Of course, they claimed this had nothing to do with the healthcare system being paid on a fee-for-service basis and insurers doing nothing to fight medical and Rx trend. Ultimately, consumer directed plans or highdeductible health plans became all the rave. Give
Yet, the Pay More, Get Less blues keep on coming. How can this be? Well, it’s a matter of out of sight, out of mind. You see, one of the main contributing factors of the Pay More, Get Less syndrome is the lack of transparency in the healthcare and insurance ecosystems. Healthcare billing and pricing has become overly complex. Administrative burdens account for billions in wasted spending. The consumers ability to shop for price and quality is non-existent. Until now. 2022 is the year of the American Healthcare Consumer, or it can be. Several laws were enacted that attempt to rectify the situation. Price Transparency disclosures included in the Transparency in Coverage rule, the No Surprises Act (part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act) and Compensation Disclosure requirements are just a few of the new regulations. This is the start of a new era in employer sponsored health plans. Americans can finally shop for health care with the same level of awareness as they do
other consumables in their lives. Technology and data have finally caught up, or show I say slowed down to let health care and insurance catch up. This is particularly relevant for employers that offer HDHP’s wrapped with a Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HRA). These employers reduce the underlying health insurance plan and then supplement all or part of the members out-ofpocket costs with the saved premium. The strategy is sound, but the traditional approach and solution partners do not offer any way to combat the steerage of a predatorial health care system that upsells most services. Robust data and a new breed of solution partners incentivizes members to make informed health care decisions saving them and their employers significantly. Employers no longer fund the $2,500 variety MRI’s at hospital-based settings. Instead, members are encouraged to seek care at highvalue alternatives and are rewarded for making an informed decision. Patients can be directed to the best doctors, facilities and the most cost-effective medications with mobile technology or concierge style advocates that put the members ahead of the profit motives of the managed care industry.
May 2022 - The HIA-LI Reporter Page 11
In the early days, the solutions were simple and straightforward; increase the copays and the tradeoff was a lower premium. Thus, copays went from $5 to $10, then $20, then $25 and eventually capped out around $50. Deductibles were reintroduced and what started as a modest $100 Deductible and 90% coinsurance quickly reached $2,000 and beyond. Still nothing stopped the perpetual 5% to 15% increase.
the members even more skin in the game and they will become more responsible consumers. These HDHP’s have now reached out-of-pockets of $8,700 for a single and $17,400 for a family in 2022. Out-of-pockets on HSA compatible plans sit at $7,050 and $14,100 respectively.

“Unfortunately, many people go undiagnosed or don’t seek treatment when they are experiencing depression or symptoms of a mental health crisis. Mental illness knows no barriers - it affects people of all ages, races, and income levels. We are grateful that more public figures and their families are speaking up and working to reduce the stigma by bringing attention to the need for a more open dialogue about this disease. FSL is encouraging more people to learn what to look for and how to access resources to fight this debilitating illness,” said Karen Boorshtein, President and CEO of FSL. FSL programs help individuals, and their loved ones, recognize that everyday life experiences such as family changes, illness, hopelessness, violence, loss, or depression all may have a role in mental health and even suicidal behavior. FSL’s life-saving prevention education programs provide guidelines for how to help someone with a mental health crisis and those thinking of suicide. Overcoming, coping, and managing mental health issues have life-long ramifications for the individual, their loved ones, and friends. These are a few of FSL’s services designed to help individuals through life’s most critical
