Uninsured And Underinsured Americans Are Saving 10% To 60% On Dental Care Thanks To DentalPlans.com

DentalPlans.com

By Rachael Green, Benzinga Open enrollment for employer-sponsored health insurance ended last week in most states, but an estimated 29% of adults still don’t have dental coverage. That’s due, in part, to the fact that dental care is often treated as something separate from healthcare. The Affordable Care Act doesn’t even include dental coverage as part of its ten essential health benefits that all plans must include, despite the fact that poor oral health has been linked to heart disease and other serious chronic health problems. The good news for those millions of Americans who missed out on dental insurance: dental savings plans are open to join year-round and can reduce the cost of dental care by 10% to 60% depending on the procedure and plan. DentalPlans.com, a leading marketplace of dental savings plans operating since 1999, makes it easy to find the right savings plan to make quality oral health affordable regardless of insurance status. Oral Health Is More Important Than You Might Think While it’s not classified as essential, the data proves that oral health is extremely important to our overall health. Bacteria and inflammation that start in the mouth can also spread to other areas and contribute to other health problems like heart disease, poor pregnancy outcomes and pneumonia. Chronic health conditions like diabetes and osteoporosis have also been linked to increased risk for gum disease and tooth decay. Physical health aside, missing teeth and other signs of poor oral health can hurt a person’s financial and social well-being, too. According to the American Dental Association, 30% of low-income adults face limitations in job interviews due to the condition of their mouth and teeth. Dental Savings Plans Help Make Improved Oral Health More Accessible Despite the growing body of research that shows how important oral health is to a person’s overall health and quality of life, dental care is still not covered by original Medicare and most state Medicaid programs include either no coverage at all, limited coverage for emergency care only, or coverage that’s capped at low annual maximums. In states that do provide coverage, those annual maximums range from just $500 in Arkansas up to $1,150 in Alaska. Even most private dental plans come with annual maximums that cap out at under $2,000 on average. Those annual limits are rarely enough to cover the full cost of even one big ticket procedure, like dental implants or root canals. As a result, adults who need anything beyond routine cleanings and exams either have to foot the bill for dental work themselves or look for supplemental plans to cover this gap in coverage. That’s where DentalPlans.com comes in. The dental savings plans marketplace provides a searchable database where visitors can find a dental savings plan that offers savings at their preferred dentist or discounts for the specific procedure they need. In exchange for a low annual membership fee, plan members of a dental savings plan enjoy discounts of between 10% to 60% off of the full price of dental procedures ranging from routine cleanings and exams to more specialized restorative and orthodontic procedures. More than 140,000 dentists, representing over 70% of practicing dentists in the United States, participate in dental savings plans. Once they join, a plan member simply has to show their membership card at the participating dentist’s office to get the discounted rate. Plans activate quickly and there are no annual limits or restrictions based on current health conditions. In one example provided on the site, a family of two adults and two children pays an annual family membership fee of $209.95 for the Careington Care 500 Series savings plan. Without the plan, a routine six-month checkup would cost $73 per person, a teeth cleaning visit would cost $122 per adult and $84 per child, and x-rays would cost $80 per person. That means the standard preventative care recommended would cost $1,316 for the family without insurance. With the example savings plan, a routine six-month checkup costs $19 per person, a teeth cleaning visit costs $39 per adult and $31 per child, and x-rays cost $21 per person. Those discounts bring the total cost for the family down to $396, representing over 55% savings even when you add the annual membership fee back in. Sample savings are based on zip code 43614, actual costs and savings may vary by service and geographical area. If anyone in that family also needed restorative care like fillings, crowns, or root canals, their dental savings plan would allow them to save hundreds or thousands on those more expensive and very important procedures. For those without dental insurance, a dental savings plan can make essential preventative care affordable and substantially lower the cost of restorative and emergency dental care. For those with dental insurance, the discounts that come with membership can help lower the out-of-pocket costs they are responsible for after they surpass their insurance plan’s annual maximum. While the two can’t be used on the same procedure, dentists can help patients who need multiple procedures (such as a root canal followed by a crown and filling) coordinate a care plan that maximizes their insurance coverage and their dental savings plan discounts. To learn more visit DentalPlans.com This article was originally published on Benzinga here. DentalPlans.com, founded in 1999, is a leading online marketplace for dental savings plans in the U.S., helping more than a million people to affordably access quality healthcare services.

Cortina Health

Dr. Muneeb Shah– known widely in social media as “ DermDoctor ” or “ Doctorly ” is the #1 dermatology influencer worldwide.

He is a board-certified dermatologist with a passion for skincare education and improving healthcare access. “DermDoctor” recognizes social media as a powerful tool in bringing healthcare education to millions of people who lack the resources to get it otherwise. Dr. Shah points out that, “There is a real access issue in the United States with healthcare. In certain areas, you cannot see a dermatologist…so there is a massive gap between patients and medical care that needs to be filled. ” It is precisely this gap he seeks to fill, debunking skin-related myths and guiding his online community in their skin and dermatology needs. Furthermore, he emphasizes the importance of board-certified dermatologists in diagnosing and treating skin conditions and the impactful role teledermatology can play in providing access to proper medical care: “When access to an in-person visit is not feasible, many skin conditions can be diagnosed and treated virtually by a dermatologist with proper data. Pairing Cortina’s next-generation technology with its network of board-certified dermatologists is the innovative solution dermatology patients need. That’s why I am proud to be advising Cortina’s team to improve access.” In addition to bringing attention to a seamless solution for diagnosing and treating skin conditions, Dr. Shah is passionate about minimizing misdiagnosis. A common condition that gets overlooked is rosacea as it typically resembles acne or a sunburn. Dr. Shah and Cortina’s first of many educational assets under the medical content advisor role is an informational YouTube video that can be found on Doctorly, discussing key indicators and treatments for both skin conditions in depth. Cortina Health is the only all-inclusive teledermatology platform providing patients with access to board-certified dermatologists who diagnose and prescribe personalized compounded medications which are shipped directly to the patient’s door.

2023 Official NFL Super Bowl LVII Game Program 1 Million Hard Copies 50 Million Unique Visitors - Digital Edition 500 Million Page Views - Digital Edition McapMediaWire -- InnerScope Hearing Technologies Inc. (OTC: INND ) ("InnerScope"), an emerging and disruptive leader in the Over-the-Counter (OTC) Hearing Aid space today announced its print ad campaign "Hearing Made Easy" is featured in the Official Super Bowl LVII (57) Game Program.

Also, in addition to the activation on NFL.com, All-Star Players and Media Personalities, with nearly 14 million combined opt-in followers, have agreed to share the publication over social media with their respective followers. FDA Ruling On OTC Hearing Aids Is A Game Changer For InnerScope An "FDA Ruling on OTC Hearing Aids went into effect on October 17, 2022, allowing millions of Americans with hearing loss to purchase hearing aids without a prescription, medical exam, or needing a professional to fit the hearing aids. But until the FDA ruling, getting hearing aids required a medical exam, prescription, and fitting done by an audiologist. In addition, the cost of professionally fitted hearing aids averages over $5,000 out-of-pocket costs for a pair because Medicare or private insurance plans don't typically cover the devices. However, FDA has established that OTC hearing aids are safe and effective for adults with perceived mild to moderate hearing loss and are regulated as medical devices by FDA. In addition, according to the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders, as many as 30 million adults in the United States currently have some degree of hearing loss and would benefit from using hearing aids. The FDA ruling was a game changer for InnerScope since its iHEAR, and HearingAssist brands of OTC hearing aids have the same type of technology and features as hearing aids sold and fit by hearing healthcare professionals at an average saving of $3,000 to $4,000 per pair. Additionally, InnerScope's iHEAR and HearingAssist OTC hearing aids are designed for consumers with perceived mild to moderate hearing loss with many different models that feature Bluetooth App-Controlled and Full-Streaming for Hands-Free Phone Calling and Listening to Music and/or Podcasts. "We are proud to have our "Hearing Made Easy" ad campaign featured in the Official NFL Super Bowl LVII Commemorative Souvenir Game Program, said Matthew Moore, President and CEO of InnerScope Hearing Technologies. "Forbes has listed the Super Bowl as "the world's most valuable sporting event brand. The Official Super Bowl LVII Game Program is simply the most valuable, content-rich magazine in all sports. In addition, we believe InnerScope's iHEAR and HearingAssist OTC Hearing Aid brands associated with the Super Bowl brand and our "Hearing Made Easy" campaign print ad will provide awareness to millions of people that need hearing aids but, up until now, could never afford them."

Odyssey Health, Inc. Forms Community-Based Partnership with David R. Metcalf Foundation for Military Concussion Research

Odyssey Group Intl Inc.

McapMediaWire -- Odyssey Health, Inc. (OTC: ODYY ), f/k/a Odyssey Group International, Inc., a company focused on developing unique, life-enhancing medical products, today announces a Community-Based Partnership (CBP) with the David R. Metcalf Invisible Wounds Foundation, a non-profit organization that advances brain health care for active duty military and veterans by addressing traumatic brain injury (TBI) and suicide prevention among Naval Special Warfare and special operations forces. Between 2001 and 2021, over 30,000 active-duty personnel and veterans who served in the military after 9/11 died by suicide, compared to the 7,057 service members who died in combat during that same 20-year period. David Metcalf was a Navy SEAL, commissioned naval officer, and physician assistant. Following consecutive deployments and multiple TBIs, David was one of the many warriors who took his own life. Repetitive TBI is linked to Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Post-Concussion Syndrome (PCS) and mental illness. Each of these conditions increase the rate of suicidal ideation and completion. A Community-Based Partnership (CBP) allows Odyssey Health’s scientific researchers across multiple disciplines to work side-by-side with the Metcalf Foundation’s community – many of whom have lived experience with TBI. The CBP assists in the development of Odyssey Health’s drug for treating TBI, specifically mild TBI (concussion). The CBP will include a needs assessment, clinical trial site planning, research intervention design, implementation, evaluation, and dissemination of community-level interventions. It is the CBP’s intent to enlist the support of the military community connected to The Metcalf Foundation with the research and scientists at Odyssey Health. This partnership will help make sure TBI interventions respond to the military community’s, particularly special operation forces, needs. The CEO of the David R. Metcalf Invisible Wounds Foundation is Shannon Finn Connell, Ph.D. She is a U.S. Navy SEAL parent and serves as an advisor to the Navy SEAL Foundation focused on initiatives for warriors transitioning from military service to civilian life. Shannon is a former executive with SYSCO, Shell Oil, and Procter & Gamble. She obtained her Ph.D. in organizational development, researching design thinking as a problem-solving method in global organizational change initiatives. “Our foundation is active in coordinating research groups, finding funding for care, and bringing awareness to the devastating epidemic of TBI and suicide in our Naval Special Warfare and special operations forces communities. We work with military members, both active and retired, and their families, who face their own challenges as TBI and suicide effects the mental fortitude of loved ones. We are excited by a potential treatment for acute concussion. Highly trained warriors, like David, are medically qualified to take care of themselves and team members in training and combat. The Metcalf Foundation believes the nasal device care and temperature stability of Odyssey Health’s drug will give it a greater chance of success and promote its use in this community of war fighters.” “Odyssey Health recognizes the need to have a partner associated with the US military that can not only give firsthand feedback about the effects of concussion but also help address logistics of treating the condition out in the field. Military medicine has different barriers to care than civilian medicine and we are excited to partner with the Metcalf Foundation to help us navigate and develop the first acute treatment for concussion,” commented Michael Redmond, Chief Executive Officer for Odyssey Health. “I am excited to be working with The Metcalf Foundation and Odyssey Health to develop an acute treatment for brain injury which is absolutely needed for our military men and women. Understanding the environment and logistics to care for our Special Operations Forces will be critical for the clinical success of Odyssey’s treatment. I will be assisting the Metcalf Foundation in establishing community feedback needed from our special forces operators to properly design and implement Odyssey Health’s clinical trials,” commented Tim Szymanski, Vice Admiral (Retired) and former Deputy Commander of the United States Special Operations Command. About Odyssey Health Inc. (formerly Odyssey Group International, Inc.) Odyssey Health Inc. (OTC: ODYY) is a medical company with a focus on life-saving medical solutions. Odyssey's corporate mission is to create, acquire and develop distinct assets, intellectual property, and exceptional technologies that provide meaningful medical solutions.

In preclinical studies, ONP-002 has demonstrated equivalent, if not superior, neuroprotective effects compared to related neurosteroids. Animal models of concussion demonstrated that ONP-002 reduces the behavioral pathology associated with brain injury symptoms such as memory impairment, anxiety, and motor/sensory performance. Additionally, ONP-002 is lipophilic and can easily cross the blood-brain barrier to rapidly eliminate swelling, oxidative stress and inflammation in the brain while restoring proper blood flow. Forward-Looking Statements This news release may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are based upon our current expectations and speak only as of the date hereof. Our actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements as a result of various factors and uncertainties, including our ability to continue to raise needed funds, successfully complete clinical trial, our ability to successfully develop products, rapid changes in our markets, changes in demand for our future products, and legislative, regulatory, competitive developments and general economic conditions.
