Robert Inghram: Florida’s Premier Medicare Navigator
TM
ROBERT INGHRAM is an independent insurance agent licensed in the state of Florida and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the government or the federal Medicare program. He is a MEDICARE NAVIGATORTM. His expertise helps Medicare beneficiaries in “NAVIGATING THE MEDICARE MINEFIELDTM .” Why do I need a MEDICARE NAVIGATORTM? A navigator is “someone who helps steer a course and direction; to clear barriers, confusion and distractions.” A MEDICARE NAVIGATORTM is someone who helps a Medicare beneficiary steer a course and direction; to clear barriers, confusion and distractions that are associated with the complicated aspects of Medicare in general. Compounding this confusion is the fact that you have been slammed and inundated with brochures, letters, flyers and other media, not to mention the annoying and unwanted phone contacts regarding your upcoming age-related Medicare eligibility. Much of the information you are getting is focused on a particular plan or plans offered by a singular insurance company. Though these particular plans may be attractive, when looking at singular company plans, you may be missing other opportunities available to you. In addition, let us not forget the misinformation on the internet. Some may lead you to believe that you will have penalties if you do not sign up for Medicare Part B or Part D when you turn 65 regardless of your current health care coverage.
All of this confusion and distraction can be overwhelming. This is what ROBERT INGHRAM calls the MEDICARE MINEFIELDTM. Original Medicare consists of three parts: Part A, which covers your hospitalization; Part B, which covers all other medical services; and Part D, which covers your prescription drugs. Your purchase of Part D is only recommended if you want to stay on JUST original Medicare or enroll in a Medicare supplement plan. If you have worked 10 years during your life, there is typically no premium associated with Part A. Part B does come with a monthly premium which is determined by your income and calculated based on the Income-Related Monthly Adjustment Amount (IRMAA) income tiers. Part D premiums are also subject to IRMAA tiers. ROBERT INGHRAM can help you with these important decisions. Once enrolled into Medicare parts A & B, there are several options available to you regarding health care coverage sponsored through private insurance carriers: Medicare Advantage prescription drug plans (MAPD), Medicare Advantage plans (MA) or Medicare supplement plans (MS, aka Medigap plans). Contracted with the major carriers in Florida, ROBERT INGHRAM has access to hundreds of plan options offered through these carriers. He will assist you in determining which plan option best fits your unique needs, budget and lifestyle. Though hundreds of plan options can seem daunting, with
If you’re new to Medicare, you don’t have to go it alone. Licensed insurance agent and Medicare NavigatorTM Robert Inghram specializes in these products and will help you navigate the Medicare MinefieldTM to make the smartest decision possible.
ROBERT INGHRAM’S expertise, these plan options can be drastically reduced. He will provide you with viable solutions, making this process easy and simple for you. The MEDICARE MINEFIELDTM is easily navigated by ROBERT INGHRAM. He is here to help you understand your options, to explain benefits and otherwise simplify this entire enrollment process. Contact ROBERT today for your free consultation at (727) 2695053; email robert.d.inghram@ gmail.com or contact him through his website at www.robertinghram. com. As a MEDICARE NAVIGATORTM and independent insurance agent, ROBERT is here to help you in NAVIGATING THE MEDICARE MINEFIELDTM. 0000318297-01

What’s the Difference Between a Walk-in Clinic, Urgent Care and the Emergency Room? By Sally Moe, Times Total Media Correspondent
There are more options for in-person and virtual medical care than ever before, but with all that choice comes confusion. How do they differ, and are they covered by your medical insurance? Or conversely, can you get seen if you don’t have medical insurance? Let’s break it down. Walk-in clinic In the first tier of care, a walk-in clinic’s staff typically includes nurse practitioners and physicians’ assistants. They diagnose certain common conditions and illnesses such as ear infections, the flu or strep throat. They can also write prescriptions if medically appropriate. Walk-in clinics are convenient locations where you can schedule and receive immediate care. They can handle treatment plans, prescriptions and minor health care concerns. Walk-in clinics offer a variety of health care services, including: • Treatment for ear and sinus infections, colds, flu, strep throat and other minor illnesses • Treatment for minor wounds, such as non-severe cuts, blisters and skin abrasions • Limited chronic condition screenings • Immunizations for the flu, meningitis, shingles and other illnesses • Health screenings for women’s health and sexually transmitted infections (STIs or STDs) • Treatment for sprains and back pain Though they may take many or most insurances, insurance is not typically required. Retail walk-in clinic This type of walk-in clinic is part of a retail location, i.e. Publix, CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, Costco, Target, a mall, etc. They are inside those locations and typically staff nurse practitioners and physicians’ assistants. They can treat non-emergencies and prescribe medications. Some clinics, like CVS’s MinuteClinic, offer virtual care as well, and include instructions on their site that detail the steps for accessing that care (but are not covered by certain health care plans). Urgent care clinic Also known as an acute care clinic. Like walk-in clinics, you don’t have to make an appointment to be seen. Urgent care clinics can take care of more serious injuries and illnesses. This can include splinting and casting broken bones. They also treat respiratory conditions that need prompt attention but do not need full-scale emergency room care. Urgent care clinics have higher-level diagnostic equipment, such as X-ray machines. But they’re not equipped for major surgery or procedures that require anesthesia. In most cases, if you don’t have insurance, they will allow you to pay affordable cash prices for services.
Urgent care clinics usually have at least one physician on staff. They work together with nurse practitioners and physicians’ assistants. Urgent care clinics offer such services as: • Non-life-threatening asthma and bronchitis treatment • Allergy care • Animal bite treatment • Casts and splints • Digestive issue care • X-rays • Infection treatment • Minor burn care • Minor wound care • STD testing Online urgent care One example of the expanding phenomenon of online urgent care is PlushCare, which identifies as “virtual primary care and mental health treatment when you need it.” Prescriptions are sent to your local pharmacy; online therapy is also available. PlushCare accepts most major insurances, but insurance is not required. According to their website, urgent care appointments are available online within 15 minutes, 24/7. Hospital emergency room A hospital emergency room is best saved for life-threatening emergencies: heart attack, stroke, appendicitis, severe burns, gunshot wound, anaphylaxis … you get the idea. But if you are truly miserable, and everything else is closed and you can’t wait until tomorrow, the ER is not going to turn you away. (Enacted in 1986, the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act [EMTALA] is a federal law that requires public hospitals to provide stabilizing treatment to anyone who comes to the ER, regardless of their ability to pay.) Bear in mind: The average ER visit can cost a patient at least $750 while the same treatment at an urgent care facility without insurance can cost as little as $150.

Wellness Checks: What, Why, and When? By Sally Moe, Times Total Media Correspondent
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, largely preventable chronic diseases, such as cancer, heart disease and diabetes, are responsible for 70% of American deaths each year. Well, that’s sobering. Staying current with various vaccinations and wellness exams goes a long way toward keeping your health on the right track. But what shots and tests are we talking about? And what’s the timetable? The following are general indications: In adulthood, a range of screening tests can identify early warning signs of serious health conditions such as heart disease, diabetes and cancer. • Cholesterol check every five years. • Blood pressure check every two years. • Calculation of body mass index, and screening for emotional and psychological conditions including depression and anxiety. • Fasting plasma glucose test every three years beginning at age 45; earlier if you’re overweight or have a high risk of diabetes. • Eye examinations every two to four years until age 54; every one to three years after that. Cataracts often begin in the 40s or 50s. • Have a dermatologist check your skin head to toe every year, as skin cancer is the most common cancer in the U.S. Additionally, for women • Generally, a Pap smear is recommended every three years between ages 21 and 65, or every five years when combined with testing for HPV (human papillomavirus).
• A mammogram is recommended every year from ages 45 to 54. From age 55, every two years, or more often for those at high risk. • Sexually active women should be tested annually for chlamydia, and everyone should have at least one HIV test during adulthood. 40 and older From the age of 40, check blood pressure every year. Check vision and hearing yearly to prevent age-related conditions like glaucoma, the second leading cause of blindness. Women ages 65 and up should be screened for osteoporosis every two years, and men over 50 should discuss prostate cancer screenings every two or three years. Everyone should have their first colonoscopy at age 45, and every 10 years after that if results are negative and their risk is average. Vaccinations CDC.gov has an exhaustive list of recommended vaccines with additional info about genders, ages and risk factors. Go to tinyurl.com/2ra4ec72 (or https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/ schedules/downloads/adult/adult-combined-schedule. pdf ) to view or download.

I Hope You Dance:
Discover the Health Benefits of Dancing By Erin Feitsma, Times Total Media Correspondent
Unlike George Michael, who famously crooned, “I’m never gonna dance again,” you, in fact, should embrace dancing. Not only can it be expressive and a lot of fun, but dancing can also have some nifty health benefits. Read on to discover how adding a bit of dance to your life can give your health a boost. *insert “Careless Whisper” saxophone solo here* Dancing is heart-healthy Take heart: Even if you’re not a fan of typical cardio workouts like running or swimming, dance can serve as a playful and enjoyable alternative that’s good for your health. According to a 2016 study in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, people who participated in moderate-intensity dancing were 46% less likely to develop heart disease, or die from it, than nondancers over 10 years of follow-up. So, next time you lace up your dancing shoes (ours are a black patent leather), remember that you’re doing your heart a favor. Dancing can keep you connected Dancing can also be a social activity and a way to connect with a community of like-minded individuals. Attending dance classes at a local organization like the YMCA can help you brush up on your skills, form new friendships and learn about different types of dances. Not only that, but studies have shown that dancing can be a good self-esteem booster. The benefits of dancing abound! Dancing can improve your mental health Not only can dancing boost both your social life and self-esteem, but it can also improve other aspects of your mental health. For instance, studies have shown that dancing can decrease anxiety. It might also be able to make you mentally sharper overall: Research finds that dancing helps us think and can improve the parts of the brain in charge of memory and organization. One study from The New England Journal of Medicine even suggests that dancing can help prevent dementia. Dancing can help your physical health, too Dancing gets you moving, and it can be great for your balance. Especially the tango! Research from the Journal of Aging and Physical Activity has found
that tango dancing can improve balance in older adults. Ballet is another type of dance known to help improve balance as well as flexibility. Dancing can help you lose weight A bonus side effect of the joy that is dancing is weight loss. In fact, a study from the Journal of Physiological Anthropology reports that aerobic dance training can help you shred the same amount of pounds as biking or jogging. This is especially encouraging if running or riding a bike just isn’t your thing. Instead, get your dance on! Dancing can strengthen your bones You’re a born dancer, it’s in your bones! Or, in this case, it might actually help your bones. The National Osteoporosis Foundation has found that highimpact, weight-bearing exercises, like certain types of dances, can promote bone strength and even help build new bone mass, which slows down the progression of osteoporosis. Dancing can reduce stress Are you a stress eater or stress cleaner? Why not become a stress dancer instead? Sure, precious few have claimed to be stress dancers, but as dance is a natural stress reliever, there are benefits to be had in giving it a try. A study from the Journal of Applied Gerontology found that dancing with a partner to some tunes can lower stress levels. So, put on some pop music (or hiphop, country or emo) and leave your troubles on the dance floor. When in doubt, dance it out, and prove George Michael wrong.
