THURS. JULY 28 - WED. AUG. 3 VARIABLE AGAIN this week, with sunny/partly cloudy skies projected for Thursday through Monday. Chance of showers through the weekend, with increasing chance of showers Tues/ Wed. Highs in 80s, lows in 50s.
TORREY - Over 300 people attended the Pioneer Day celebration in Torrey July 2223. From quilts and sheep wagons to picnics and music, the event celebrated the traditional cultural heritage of Utah. It was also an opportunity to bring together a broad cross-section of the community for a positive, uplifting experience. The weekend kicked off Friday evening with a presentation by local historian Steve Taylor on the history of Fishlake. Saturday afternoon featured a sheep wagon showcase and quilt display. Visitors were able to explore a wide range of sheep camps and talk to their owners. The antique quilt display coordinated by Charlotte Williams included century old heirloom quilts along with more recent entries submitted by High Country Quilters. As festival goers arrived for the potluck picnic, the local group Rough Around the Edges provided musical entertainment. Area churches provided sloppy joes, while picnickers brought side dishes to share. The event culminated in a pioneer program coordinated by Allan and Sandy Dietlein featuring skits, readings, stories, and music. Thanks to everyone who made this event possible from both the Wayne County Interfaith Council and the Entrada Institute. Also, thanks to all the volunteers and church representatives. It’s amazing what can be accomplished when everyone comes together. —Annette Lamb
Participate in HWY 12 – Burr Trail Recreation Study During GSENM Science Forum KANAB - Dr. Tim Casey with Colorado Mesa University is once again coming to the local area to conduct recreation focus groups, this time in conjunction with the GSENM 20th Anniversary Science Form. The public is encouraged to join the conversation about recreation management on BLM public lands accessed by HWY 12 and the Burr Trail. These are the second of three rounds of local area focus groups hosted by Colorado Mesa University’s Natural Resource Center (NRC) and Grand StaircaseEscalante National Monument. These focus groups are scheduled for August 4th, 5th, and 6th in Tropic, Escalante, and Boulder. The last round is slated for October. This research seeks to engage local leaders, business owners, residents, and visitors that either participate in recreational activities in this region, or have a stake in the quality of the experience of those that do. A focus group is a form of research in which a group of people are asked about their perceptions, opinions, preferences, and attitudes towards, in this case, recreational use on public lands in this region. Questions are asked in an interactive group setting where participants are free to talk with other group members. The idea behind the focus groups is to open dialogue between BLM land managers and the public on recreation issues, to provide information for future planning efforts and project assessments, and to gather data needed to better understand the public’s desired outcomes for recreation management in the Monument. The focus groups will be
facilitated by Dr. Tim Casey, Professor of Political Science at Colorado Mesa University in Grand Junction, Colorado. Dr. Casey is a lead researcher and field coordinator at NRC who has extensive experience working with BLM on similar social science projects on the Colorado Plateau. He has been responsible for facilitation of public meetings and focus groups regarding public lands since 2006.
Each focus group session will last approximately two hours. For more information about how to participate, please contact Allysia Angus, GSENM Landscape Architect at 435-826-5615 or aangus@ blm.gov. Or if you have questions about the research, please contact Dr. Tim Casey at 970248-1095 or tcasey@coloradomesa.edu. —Allysia Angus, BLM

Fishlake RAC Meeting Scheduled
RICHFIELD - The Fishlake Resource Advisory Committee (RAC) will be meeting on Wednesday, August 3 at the Fishlake National Forest office, 115 E. 900 N., Richfield, Utah. The meeting is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. and is open to the general public. During the meeting the RAC will be reviewing and recommending projects proposed for funding under Title II of the Secure Rural Schools Act, otherwise known as Payments to States. The legislation encourages individuals, non-profit organizations, local governments and others to propose projects that restore watersheds, decommission or maintain roads, remove
noxious weeds, thin tree stands, or otherwise improve the condition of the Forests. The proposed projects need not be implemented on Forest Service lands, but must benefit National Forest resources. All projects must recommended for funding by the RAC by September 30, 2017 and have funding obligated by September 30, 2018. Information about the Fishlake RAC may be found at: http://cloudapps-usda-gov. force.com/FSSRS/RAC_ ge?id=001t0000002JcvHAAS Information about payments to States including Resource Advisory Committees may be found at: http://www. fs.usda.gov/pts/ —US Forest Service

In All the Way for Steve Cox for County Commissioner
Garfield county residents please vote for Steve Cox for County Commissioner. I worked with Steve as a fellow Boulder Town town council member. He has proven himself to be a level headed key contributor who listens, and whose suggestions, recommendations, and opinions have been spot on for each occasion of city government issues. He thinks things through and doesn't go off half cocked. He doesn't talk as if he loves to hear the sound of his own voice. He has volunteered his own time on key projects within Boulder. He adds to the success of Boulder town and he serves in a humble way. Think what great things he can do for the county. Don't let political affiliations be a stumbling block. I most always vote Republican, but in this particular situation I'm behind Steve Cox all the way. He has already demonstrated to me through our involvement together on local government that he is the best man for the job. Cindy Wilson, Boulder

CCAW participated in the Torrey Apple Days parade and swap meet. Swap meet proceeds go directly toward helping animals in the Wayne County area. parade went by, a hearty round of applause and cheers for the people and animals who made up the “float” could be heard. The combined efforts of the volunteers who staffed the booth and the yard sale helped raise proceeds for CCAW, 100% of which go directly toward helping the animals of the Wayne County area. We thank everyone who stopped by the booth for information or some kitten playtime, browsed the yard sale and made a donation, and who just overall supports the mission of this organization.

GCSD Expands the Classroom Through Technology GARFIELD COUNTY The leadership and staff of Garfield County have determined that the next step in improving education involves sending the devices that we currently use in our classrooms home with our students, so that they can gain even more experience with technology based learning. In
our industry this is sometimes called 1:1; meaning that each student has their own device. We are excited to introduce this new opportunity to our students, and improve learning in Garfield County. This program will be rolled out to all students in grades 4th -12th at all schools in the district. This means that 4th grade to 12th grade students will have the option of receiving a Chromebook laptop computer for their education needs. While the students are not obligated to take the computers, parents should be aware that future programming, textbooks, and testing will begin to be available in a digital format. Having a Chromebook will help students have access to these tools not just at school but also anywhere they take their devices. The past couple of years, teachers have utilized the Chromebooks in their classrooms, and have been preparing your student for digital success. We will be providing additional professional development for our teachers to help them strategically expand learning beyond the classroom through this technology. All computers will continue to be the property of the district, and will be provided to those students wishing to participate provided replacement insurance is procured. Those parents wishing to bypass the mandatory insurance are free to purchase their own similar products, and be fully compatible with the new district plan. Please watch for additional information throughout the summer. —Garfield County School District

What is 1 : 1 (One to One)? While reading the March 2014 Superintendent’s Corner, I noticed Mr. Dalton had mentioned that the district was at the state target of making available one computer to every student. During the last school board meeting, I introduced the prospects of taking the district to the next level of 1 : 1, placing a computer in every student’s hands for use both at school and at home. Through the mini grant program and with district funds, computer inventory numbers are such that each student can be assigned an individual computer for their individual use. The proposal would give all students from grades 4th -12th a Chromebook for personal use at both school and home. Third grade would have a Chromebook available for school use only, while grades K-2 will move towards a device to improve skills with the mouse. The program will be based on students wishing to take their machines home having the option to purchase an insurance policy to cover any issues concerning breakage, theft, and general damage. Anyone not wishing to participate in the take home program will still have a computer assigned to their student(s) while at school. K-3 devices will not have to participate in the insurance, as they will not be taking the device home. Please watch for more information to come forward concerning the 1: 1 program. —Tracy Davis, Garfield County School District Superintendent

First Annual Bat Festival in Glen Canyon PAGE, ARIZ. - The National Park Service (NPS) and Glen Canyon Natural History Association (NHA) will host the first annual Glen Canyon Bat Festival on Thursday, August 4 at the Wahweap amphitheater. This free event will include informational booths, kid-friendly crafts and activities, guest presentations, and a bat discovery walk. Festivities will begin at 6 p.m. and conclude just after 10 p.m. Arizona MST. The bat festival will highlight how important bats are in reducing insect populations, dispersing seeds, and even pollination in more southern desert climates. “We get to live our lives relatively pestfree here because of the hard work of bats,” said Amanda Boston, program coordinator
for the Glen Canyon NHA. “There are a lot of misconceptions about bats, and the goal of hosting this festival with the park is to celebrate these underappreciated mammals and our unique relationship with them.” Guest speaker Jason Corbett with Bat Conservation International will speak about the benefits of bats and the looming threats posed by white-nose syndrome (WNS) to bat populations nationwide. Other presentations and activities will be led by NPS and NHA staff and will even highlight the bat monitoring efforts in Glen Canyon. The event will also showcase local research in Glen Canyon which began in 2015 and continues this year. According to Lonnie Pilkington, Natural Resources Program
Manager with the NPS at Glen Canyon, “recent bat monitoring projects in Glen Canyon have been able to engage citizen scientists and increase public awareness of the threats bats are facing.” Those threats range from white-nose syndrome to habitat loss to impacts from wind power development. Attendees to the August 4 Bat Festival will have a chance to participate in a bat discovery walk at 9:15 p.m. Participants will use iPads and other wildlife monitoring devices to identify bat species by sound on an easy 1-mile guided walk between the campground and Swim Beach.

How to Clear Title to Property When Someone Dies by Jeffery J. mCkennA
You or someone you know may own unmarketable assets as a result of the death of a previous owner. The asset may be real estate, stock in a corporation or some other asset. The title is unmarketable because the property is in the name of the deceased individual. Many times when someone dies owning property in his or her name, the surviving family members do not take the necessary steps to clear title to the property. Although this is common, it can create future problems. If a parent, grandparent or some other ancestor died with real estate, stock or other assets in just his or her name and no probate proceeding was commenced, the assets are likely still in that person’s name and presently unmarketable. The assets cannot be sold or transferred because title is in the name of the deceased. If someone dies with a
will, the will states who is to serve as personal representative of the deceased. If there is no will, the intestate statute of the state where the property is located specifies the priority for who is to serve as personal representative. Once someone is appointed personal representative, the person appointed has authority to sell or transfer assets of the deceased. However, in Utah, if the probate proceeding is not commenced within three years after someone’s death, a personal representative cannot be appointed. In these situations, a legal action to determine the heirs of the deceased must be commenced. Although a determination of heirs is usually a more involved process then a probate proceeding, it is an effective way to clear title to otherwise unmarketable assets. Many families know of assets within their family that were owned by a family

member that died more than three years ago. Often, the family does not know what to do about the assets. In some situations, the assets may have significantly increased in value. Family members are often relieved to know there is a process to clear title. Determining the heirs of a deceased individual usually involves several steps. Although the process can be involved, it rarely gets easier with the passage of time. Fortunately, with a little effort and sometimes a brief genealogical review to determine the heirs of a deceased property owner, property that is presently unmarketable can once again be sold or transferred.

t H e Leftist
A teenager was nervous as he took the wheel for his first driving lesson. Two other students waited their turns in the back seat. As the driver was pulling out of the parking lot, the teacher said, "Turn left here, and don't forget to let the people behind you know what you're doing." The young driver turned to the students sitting in the back seat and announced, "I'm going left."
Hipsters
After receiving the news that our son had been born, we notified family members. Both sets of grandparents arrived at the hospital together. Just getting out of the car was quite an ordeal since all four were in various stages of recovery from knee operations and hip replacements. As the foursome hobbled towards the hospital entrance, brandishing canes and walkers, my mother quipped, "Mercy! I hope they don't admit us before we get to the maternity ward."

You can't change the past, but you can ruin the present by worrying about the future.

l A u G h i N g pOiNt!! Kids!
A couple with three children waited in line at San Francisco's Pier 41 to purchase tickets for a sightseeing boat to Alcatraz Prison. The children weren't good at waiting: they fidgeted, whined, and punched one another. The frazzled parents reprimanded them to no avail. Finally they reached the ticket window. "Five tickets, please," the mother said. "Two round trip, three one way."
Amen Sister
Before my daughter went on her first date, I gave her "the talk." "Sometimes, it's easy to get carried away when you are with a boy," I said. "Remember, a short moment of indiscretion could ruin your life." "Don't worry," she said. "I don't plan on ruining my life until I get married."
Vets
A veteran is someone who, at one point in their life, wrote a blank check made payable to The United States of America for an amount up to and including their life.
Bills
When the U.S. Mint reissued two-dollar bills, I thought they might someday become collectors' items. I went to the bank and picked up a hundred, serially numbered and still in their original band. On my next trip to my parents' house, I gave the $200 to my father and said, "Take good care of these. They might be worth something someday." Several months later I asked Dad if he was keeping the two dollar bills safe. "Oh, yes!" he replied. "I deposited them in the bank the day after you left."
Helpful
When I go to casinos, the most ridiculous sign I see is the one that says: "If you have a gambling problem, call 1-800-GAMBLER." So, I call them and say, "I have an ace and a six. The dealer has a seven. What do I do?"
Today's Thought
I think my problem is indecisiveness. Or maybe it's procrastination.

She was born January 6, 1924, in Lyman, Utah, a daughter of Thorvald and Sarah Eleanor Jackson Peterson. Madonna married C. Cleland Hunt, August 9, 1941 in Lyman, Utah, their marriage was later solemnized in the Manti Temple. Madonna served in the LDS Church as a primary teacher, Young Women's president, Relief Society teacher, and visiting teacher. Madonna was raised on a ranch in Lower Lyman where she worked with her family during the summer, moving to Lyman town during the winter to go to school. She had many fun memories of "The Ranch" in Lyman; growing up with her brothers and sister, climbing everywhere at Big Rocks and floating down the river on a board, even though they couldn't swim. After marriage, Madonna and Cleland lived in Green River, Salt Lake, and Caineville and finally settled in Torrey, together they owned and operated the Hunt Sawmill and Lumber Co., Hunt Apple Orchard, and a ranch in Caineville, Utah. During the 1960's and early 70's Madonna picked fruit for Worthen Jackson who contracted the orchards at Capitol Reef National Park. She also worked at "The Lodge" restaurant and motel in Capitol Reef National Park during the 1970's until it closed; she then worked at The Rim Rock restaurant during the 1980's and 90's. Her favorite job of all time was working for Dixie National Forest Service tidying up Fish Lake and Boulder Mountains, cleaning campsites, restrooms, and around the mountains, she worked for the FS from the late 1990's through 2008 and finally retired at age 85, Madonna then continued quilting and working in her flower and vegetable garden until age 89 when she started to slow down. Madonna is survived by her children, Stanley (Sandra) Hunt, Loa; Priscilla (Carl) Reichert, Mesa, AZ; Deanna (Jerry) LeFevre, Panguitch; Monty Hunt, Torrey; Donita (Jeff) Pace, Torrey; Brenda (Shannon) Davis, Ivins.

FYI PanguItch
by Mack Oetting ~ mackoetting @gmail.com What a beautiful weekend for the Pioneer 24th celebration. The Scout’s breakfast was a really big hit as it always is, each troupe gets this fund raiser every 3 years and it is a real tribute to their leaders that it comes off so smooth. The parade gets bigger each year and this was no exception and tons of candy was grabed off by the kiddies. The 1st. Ward’s Relief Society float got a flat tire on the way down to get in line and with a lot of help it got repaired fast like at a NASCAR race and the made it just in time. Not so, with my Model A truck it died and I couldn’t get it back running, but with all of the really good looking cars in the parade it wasn’t missed,. Oh well, there is always next year. The Firefighters luncheon was well attended and as usually the food was really great. Lots of young folk helping out this year mixed in with the old timers, to make the load lighter. Many thanks to Chief Dave Dodds for carrying on the Panguitch tradition. At the High School rodeo, with riders coming from 11 different states to compete, the Town
was really well represented, with three of our young people winning saddles. Kelton Cropper and his roping partner Zeke Woodling won the team roping event, Kelton is new in town, what a good way to get acquainted. Kolton Miller, (the son of Lance Miller, the new Manger of the Triple C Arena) won the bare riding championship, with the winning scores in all three go a rounds. Lindsey Perkins (the daughter of Ralph and Michelle Perkins) won the barrel racing event, with all three of her rides in the 16 seconds times. The news around Town is in the third Ward they have a new Bishopric. With Mar Kay Engelstead as the new Bishop and his First Counselor is Devin Albrecht and the Second Counselor is Josh Chappell. A lot of thanks goes to Bishop Henrie and his Counselors for all of their hard work over last 5 years, they were outstanding, with their words of comfort, in trying times. Well we finally get a few weeks off from our weekly events that go on in town,
Amen. Our last big event for the year will be the Garfield County Fair and all the fun it brings. Things are a little slow this week and so I am going to write about a fascinating article out of this month’s National Geographic on Mosquitoes. The mosquito an insect smaller than a child’s thumbnail remains the most deadly nonhuman animal on earth. There are over 3,500 different species of these creatures and only several hundred of them are vampires feeding off human blood. The vampires are always female, they can suck your blood while injecting mosquito saliva laced with an anticoagulant and they can do that and you have no idea what’s happening until her blood meal is under way. She can sip your blood until she’s is more than twice her weight and she will fly off to get rid of the liquid while retaining the nutrients from the blood. Some of the diseases that mosquitoes carry are: Yellow fever (60,000 deaths), Malaria (this parasite killed more than 400,000 in 2015), West Nile Fever, Dengue Fever (spread-
ing since the 1970’s has this potentially fatal virus that threatens 50 % of the world population) Zika Virus Disease (can cause birth defects from an infected mother), Chikungunya (causes severe joint pain). Science is working on ways to eliminate these insects, giving the mother poison that she would inject and it would poison her offspring’s. Another is altering their DNA, which could simply delete a natural gene from the wild parents and replace it with a version that would confer sterility in their offspring. By the time the Zika outbreak in Puerto Rico comes to an end it is estimated that, based on patterns of other mosquito-borne illnesses, at least a quarter of the 3.5 million people will contract the Zika virus. With this virus many thousands of pregnant women are likely to become infected. The battle to do away with these insects is an ongoing fight that scientist are working on. Hope this article didn’t ruin your day. Mack O.

The 24th of July is typically pretty quiet in Boulder. Partly this is due to the decades-long arrangement between towns that Boulder hosts the 4th of July celebrations and Escalante hosts Pioneer Day. There also could be the matter that Boulder is one of the few southern Utah towns that wasn’t directed by Brigham Young to be established. Remote, out of the way, really hard to get to at the time, and why bother? So the people who did end up meandering over the mountain were renegades of sorts, which may explain the origins of our current reputation within Garfield County. But speaking of pioneers, on Sat., July 16, Boulder laid to rest the last remaining granddaughter of one of those original white settlers. Genevieve Haws Weir died at age 91, the youngest daughter of Henry and Maud Haws. Gen’s grandfather, Franklin Haws was one of the first white men to decide maybe the grass really was greener on this side of the mountain. There seems to be some contention as to the title of “first”---Franklin Haws or Amasa Lyman. But among other things, Franklin is the man who built Boulder’s iconic red barn on his “Red Wing” ranch, still standing and recognizable to all who pass

BLM Releases Master Leasing Plan for Southern Utah MOAB - Conservation groups, business owners and other stakeholders are praising the completion of a federal land management plan for southern Utah. The Moab Master Leasing Plan, released this week by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), is the result of a four-year process to balance the development of energy and potash deposits with protecting the natural beauty of southern Utah's public lands. Ashley Korenblat, director of the non-profit Public Land Solutions in Moab, said the agreement spells out in advance how oil production will coexist with recreation interests. "What this planning process and these stipulations do, they make it so when a drill rig comes back to Grand County, if it does, if the price of oil goes back up, we know exactly where the well pad should be and how it should be managed," she said. Korenblat said the agreement will avoid instances where an oil producer might seek to place a well on a trail head, spurring protests and expensive litigation. The agreement would close some parts of the region to mineral leasing, limit surface occupancy for energy development in other areas and reduce well site density. Some state officials have expressed concerns the plan could cost the region millions in revenues and hundreds of jobs. Conservation groups and the Interior Department are calling the agreement a model for future energy development on public lands. Korenblat, who's Moab-based company, Western Spirit Cycling, provides guided mountain bike tours of wilderness trails, said the plan will help outdoor businesses like hers grow. "They're attracting not only visitors but businesses and what we call quality-of-life recruits, people who want to live in a small town that has access to public land so that they can do all the fun things they like to do, and recruit employees for their businesses," she added. The proposal is the latest of several BLM leasing plans, mostly in western states, released since 2010 when the agency began reforming its oil and gas leasing practices on federal lands. —Mark Richardson, Utah News Connection

endeavors too. I had the good fortune of partaking of one of these ventures: pie cooking class with Garin. Garin has achieved local fame as a pie baker, first for Burr Trail Grill during his period working there. Flaky, rich crusts, perfectly baked and dripping with fabulous fillings. More recently, he’s catered special parties with a combination of sweet and savory pies. For our class, he’d prepared braised leg of lamb and zucchini-goat cheese savory fillings. We learned how to make, roll out, and bake both filled and to-be filled piecrusts, and then we got to enjoy his and our efforts with a late and lazy feast afterward. The setting for the class was the home of Jacqui Smalley, who has the perfect kitchen for hosting such a gathering. (Jacqui owns Boulder Creek Canyon Ranch, the new name for old Red Wing ranch. Aren’t life’s coincidences wonderful?) Haylee and Emmylou were assisting Garin and taking photos of the event, which is hopefully only the first of many future food extravaganzas with those two. This family is among the new faces establishing their unique niche in Boulder. We wish them and their girls all happiness and success here. And stop by their food cart, Magnolia’s Street Food, parked at the Anasazi Museum, open Thursday through Monday, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. for a Yucatan-inspired, fresh and delicious meal.
BRIGHAM CITY/PANGUITCH - Daughter, wife, mother, grandmother, friend, and nurse…noble roles filled admirably by LaVern Jeppson Lindsay who passed away at the age of 93, on July 23 , 2016. LaVern was the ninth of ten children born to August Frantz and LaVerna Forsgren Jeppson, on November 17, 1922. She graduated from Box Elder High School, attended Utah State University, the University of Utah college of nursing and B.Y.U. She was drafted by the U.S military during WW II to hospital service at Fitzsimmons Hospital in Denver, Colorado. She met her husband, Harold G. Lindsay, at Utah State in a chemistry class. They were married in the Salt lake Temple, September 5, 1946, after he came home from serving in WWII. They had three daughters Glenna, Verna Ann and Madelyn. She loved her role as a mother. The family lived in Logan, Fillmore, Salt Lake, Panguitch, Brigham City, Fort Collins, CO, and Dingle Idaho. LaVern was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. She had a strong testimony and a love of Jesus Christ. She served in many callings in the church. She and Harold served in the Alhambra, California mission. She also served in the Ogden and Mt. Timpanagos temples. She worked as a surgical nurse in Utah, Idaho and Colorado. Later was Public Health Nursing Supervisor for Cache, Box Elder and Rich counties. She loved being a nurse! LaVern and Harold traveled throughout the U.S. and Europe. They square danced with friends, loved to snow mobile, boat, fish, trailer travel and were “snowbirds” in St. George. Her eternal companion passed away in 1993, she has missed him dearly. It makes us smile to envision their happy reunion. She then moved to Orem, Utah where she lived for seventeen years, making many wonderful friends. She traveled throughout the United States, to Church History sites, temples and Hawaii. She belonged to DUP, a literary group and “Lunch Bunch”. She loved taking classes with Elder Quest. At the age of 90 she moved to Pioneer Valley Lodge retirement center in North Logan closer to her daughter, Madelyn and family. The signature saying throughout her life, even to the end was, “life is good”. She had a PMA – positive mental attitude, a spunky attitude, was a good listener, taught by example, and was always grateful. She was loved by her children and grandchildren who called her “the candy grandma”. She will be missed by her friends and family! LaVern was preceded in death by her parents, and 9 siblings, her daughter, Verna Ann Henrie, granddaughter Ashley Henrie, grandson, Hutch Henrie. She is survived by her two daughters, Glenna (Robert) Hammond, Madelyn (MarDell) Parrish, son-in-law, Steven Henrie, 15 grandchildren and 38 greatgrandchildren. Her family would like to sincerely thank the Integrity Home Health and Hospice staff for their kindness, concern, and diligent care of LaVern, allowing her to stay in her “home” at Pioneer Valley Lodge until the end. Funeral services will be held at noon, Saturday, July 30, 2016 at Myers Mortuary in Brigham City, 205 South first East. There will be a viewing from 10:30 to 11:30 am. Burial will take place at the Brigham City Cemetery following the service. Condolences and memories may be shared with the family online at myers-mortuary.com

How to Research and Reduce Healthcare Costs by nAthAnieL siLLin
Whether you're planning a future procedure or navigating care after a sudden illness or accident, smart consumers have a plan in place to avoid hidden costs and billing errors common to our ever-changing healthcare system. You should too. The Affordable Care Act (http://www.hhs.gov/healthcare/) (ACA) made it possible for all Americans to get some form of healthcare coverage regardless of their medical history. That's the good news. The bad news is that everyone's personal health circumstances and solutions are different, and we're still far away from the day when the coverage we buy – either individually or through our employers – can prevent us from getting unexpected bills for services and procedures our insurer didn't cover or errors made in the billing process. It's also important to know that many health insurers are adjusting to the reality of universal coverage by narrowing the assortment of doctors in their networks, leaving more patients at risk of "surprise" (http://kff.org/privateinsurance/issue-brief/surprisemedical-bills/) bills if they are treated by practitioners outside their insurer's network. There are some helpful resources – both public (https:// www.medicare.gov/coverage/ surgery-estimating-costs.html) and private (https://healthcarebluebook.com/) – which have emerged that price health procedures. Using those resources can help avoid some major outof-pocket healthcare expenses. It's also essential to determine what practitioners may be in or out of network, particularly if it's an emergency. So what can you do to prevent these unexpected health costs? If you are not on Medicare, (https://www.medicare. gov/what-medicare-covers/ index.html) which tends to have more standardized pricing and coverage, you need to question practitioners (or their billing departments) and pricecomparing procedures the way you would any major purchase. Depending on your local medical resources, you may have the option to conduct your research online. Here are some ways to begin. Know how you're covered for both emergencies and
Noon
non-emergencies. It's easier to plan for a hip replacement you'll need in six months than for emergency surgery after an accident or sudden illness, but it's important to think through how your coverage works in both situations: Emergency: Emergencies are a challenge to price because it's tough to know which practitioners and services you'll actually need. The key is to make a plan for emergencies. Speak to your insurer now – and consult your primary care physician – to confirm that you have a good range of in-network emergency doctors at the hospital of your choice. If not, you might want to think about switching plans during your next enrollment period. Put an easy-to-find "in case of emergency" card in your wallet next to your health insurance card that makes your preferred hospital visible to first responders or other helpers. Also, list your primary care doctor's and your health care power of attorney's (http://www.practicalmoneyskills.com/personalfinance/ experts/practicalmoneymatters/ columns_2016/0606_Estates. php) contact information. Finally, make sure the person you designate as your health care power of attorney has access to your insurance and physician network information so he or she can guide your care more affordably if you're incapacitated. Non-emergency: If your doctor is recommending a particular in-hospital or outpatient procedure in the coming weeks or months, you've got time to plan, so do it. Query your physician or his or her billing department about the cost of the procedure and what other practitioners (such as an anesthesiologist) might be involved. Then spend equal time speaking with your insurer about what you've learned and how extensively the procedure in question will be covered. Make sure you understand if your insurer covers the procedure on an inpatient (hospital) or outpatient (office) basis – some insurers are reportedly cutting back (https:// www.washingtonpost.com/ business/economy/employerspush-limit-of-obamacare-byexcluding-outpatient-surgeryin-plans/2016/01/21/94537954bbc5-11e5-99f3184bc379b12d_story.html) on outpatient coverage. Know your deductible. The
latest annual Kaiser Foundation employer health benefits survey (http://kff.org/health-costs/ press-release/employer-familyhealth-premiums-rise-4-percent-to-17545-in-2015-extending-a-decade-long-trend-ofrelatively-moderate-increases/) indicated some whopping figures for health care deductibles – the out-of-pocket total you have to pay before the bulk of your health coverage kicks in. For example, if you have a $3,000 deductible that you haven't touched this year, that's the initial out-of-pocket amount you're going to have to pay for any big procedure. Keep that figure in mind as you continue your research on medical options. That's why it's important to keep such amounts in an emergency fund or, if you have the option, set aside in a health savings account (https://www. irs.gov/publications/p969/ar02. html) where you can keep funds not only for the deductible, but for other potential out-of-pocket health costs. Review bills closely. One recent study (http://abcnews. go.com/GMA/story?id=12707 7&page=1&version=meter+a t+1&module=meter-Links&p gtype=article&contentId=&m ediaId=&referrer=&priority=t rue&action=click&contentCol lection=meter-links-click) has reported significant errors in medical bills, particularly for hospital stays. Keep in mind that the price-comparison exercise doesn't stop on the way in to a procedure. You need to keep an eye on pre- and postprocedure bills from practitioners, hospitals and your health insurer for accuracy. If you see an error, contact the appropriate party or parties immediately to correct the problem. Bottom line: There are very few industries going through as much change as healthcare. Universal coverage is good, but it's important to know exactly what it pays for before you need it. Set aside time to think through your health issues and do your research to help reduce healthcare costs that can impact your overall budget. Learning to save money now can preserve your budget later.
