Author The Stephen Frederick Agency Inaugurates Charity Program In Austin, TX, And Debuts With Campaign Providing Medical Care For Animals Rescued From the City Kill Shelter
Austin, TX (PRWEB) February 10, 2015
The Stephen Frederick Agency in Austin, TX announced the debut of its charity program designed to benefit the local community. The agency will work closely with nonprofit organizations in the area, to nominate a new beneficiary every 60 days. The idea is to create a campaign to help the elected causes or programs with immediate support by bringing awareness to those very important issues.
To launch the program, Stephen Frederick, the agency’s principal, has chosen to introduce Save Your 4-Legged Friends. The campaign’s mission is to provide animals with medical care, such as spray/neuter, deworming, microchip and vaccinations, to ensure they remain healthy and adoptable.
“So many animals end up abandoned or neglected in our community… We want to mobilize our neighbors, friends and family to help keep them in good health so they can have another chance to bring joy, love and happiness to new families,” said Frederick.
Each new cause showcased by the agency will accompany a detailed full story about the elected cause on a designated donations page. To join The Stephen Frederick Agency in supporting Save Your 4-Legged Friends, donors are encouraged to visit the campaign page, at http://www.stephenfrederickassociates.com/Save-Your-4-Legged-Friends_4_community_cause, and share it with their friends and family through social media and email.
With the newly launched program, The Stephen Frederick Agency takes responsibility for promoting that page through its many channels, to include its own database of thousands of customers, business partners, staff, neighbors and friends.
The agency also owns a monthly publication, Our Hometown magazine, which reserves a full page featuring the campaign of the chosen cause. The electronic Flipbook version of the current issue of the magazine can be accessed here: http://www.ourhometownmag.org/frederickinsurance/frederickinsurance-jan-15/.

Georgetown University and Urban Institute Researchers Release State-by-State Analysis on How the Affordable Care Act Will Create Opportunities for More Entrepreneurs
Washington, D.C (PRWEB) June 04, 2013
A team of nationally recognized researchers estimate that the number of self-employed entrepreneurs will be 1.5 million higher in 2014 because of the new health insurance options created by the Affordable Care Act (ACA). The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation sponsored report was coauthored by Georgetown University’s Center on Health Insurance Reforms and the Urban Institute.
“Far too many people have had their dream of launching their own business delayed or denied because they couldn’t afford to give up the security of good health insurance,” said Sabrina Corlette, co-author of the report and director of the Georgetown University Center on Health Insurance Reforms. “That’s all about to change when the Affordable Care Act starts offering high-quality health insurance options that aren’t tied to employment.”
The researchers found the impact of the ACA on entrepreneurship will vary state by state, depending on the insurance market reforms states may already have in place. For example, they estimate an increase of 124,000 newly self-employed in Texas, 72,000 in Florida, 67,000 in Ohio and 60,000 in Pennsylvania because the ACA’s reforms will improve individual’s access to high quality health insurance that isn’t tied to their jobs. Massachusetts, however, will see no measurable change because many of the ACA’s reforms are already in place.
Provisions of the new health law that may encourage more people to start their own business include:
No applicant can be turned down because of a preexisting condition.
Individuals cannot be charged higher premiums because of their health status.
Insurers must offer plans with a comprehensive set of essential health benefits.
Tax credits to help low- or moderate- individuals and families will reduce premium costs.
Medicaid expansion, in some states, will provide coverage for those with the lowest incomes.
The research was funded by Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and published by the Center on Health Insurance Reforms (CHIR) and the Urban Institute. CHIR is composed of a team of nationally recognized experts on private health insurance and health reform. For more on the center’s work, please see our website and blog.

Newest Best-Selling Skin Care Using Key Antioxidants to Repair Sun Damage and Reverse the Signs of Aging at TheBeautyPlace.com
Miami, FL (PRWEB) July 12, 2012
Antioxidants work by penetrating the top layer of skin and turn free radicals into harmless molecules. Thus preventing the signs of aging, stimulating collagen, repairing damaged skin cells, and eliminating blemishes or imperfections.
Vitamin E, also known as Tocopherol, is a moisturizing antioxidant that protects the skin barrier from damage. It acts as an obstacle, fighting free radicals and environmental factors from damaging skin. It is found in neck and decolletage creams because these areas tend to sag and wrinkle over time due to sun exposure and age. Pevonia Ligne Esthebuste Restore Neck and Bust Concentrate $ 70.51, offers it in a concentration for maximum absorption on skin.
Retinol is a Vitamin A derivative. It is considered one of the best anti-aging ingredients because of its long list of benefits. Retinol treats fine lines, wrinkles, sun spots, dullness, crepiness, sagging skin, hyperpigmentation and various other signs of aging and skin concerns. It is found in night serums like the DDF Anti-Aging Restoring Night Serum , $ 86.04 , because skin exposure in the daytime can cause skin damage in the form of spots. Another reason it is recommended for overnight use is because skin absorbs the most when it is at rest. Thus allowing for maximum effectiveness from the ingredient.
The beauty consultants recommend serums to their clients because the stronger doses allow faster penetration than creams. Vivite Daily Antioxidant Facial Serum $ 37.25, contains a mix of extracts from pomegranate, green tea, chamomile, and contains glycolic acid to help diminish discoloration. Pomegranate is an antioxidant protecting skin against some UV damage that can lead to wrinkles, sagging and skin cancer. Green tea is an antioxidant that protects against free radicals – helping to enhance skin elasticity, stimulate collagen, and soothe inflammation. ” Skin that has a sprinkling of freckles, fine lines around the eyes and mouth. I recommend this wonderful to serum to clients who are not ready to dive into the world of age creams and skin treatments, but want a little proof of how choosing great skin care can make them look a little younger again,” stated Rebecca, lead beauty consultant at TheBeautyPlace.com.
Idebenone is a synthetic antioxidant that reduces inflammation and UV damage to skin cells that can cause wrinkles and hyperpigmentation. It is popularly found in Prevage MD Anti- Aging Serum, $ 67.00, because this anti-aging serum contains the highest concentration of idebenone found in any skin care product. “This skin product may actually be the best-selling skin care treatment at TheBeautyPlace.com. I talk to clients who have used it for years and praise its benefits!”, stated Rebecca. The antioxidant helps promote firmer, smoother, and brighter skin. It works good with all skin types, but ideal for dry, mature and aging skin.

Unity Health Successfully Implements Mobile Point of Care from CellTrak
Schaumburg, IL and Rochester, NY (PRWEB) July 10, 2012
At Unity Health System you’ll find the friendliest and most compassionate people dedicated to providing the best possible health care experience in over 70 locations. Key programs include Unity Hospital’s Joint Replacement Center, Family Birth Place, Spine Center, Diabetes Center, Stroke Center, Brain Injury & Physical Rehabilitation, and Chemical Dependency. Unity Center for Aging provides a comprehensive range of services for older adults using the most innovative approaches in elder care. ACM Medical Laboratory is an industry leader in patient and clinical trials testing.
Unity prides itself on providing an unequaled level of quality in the delivery of a broad range of modern health care services that respond to the needs of patients, their community, and all associated health care providers. What distinguishes Unity from most other health care providers, however, is that their services allow those most in need, the frail and the elderly, to receive award winning health care directly in their own home or at one of Unity’s locations.
Unity has been using homecare technologies for clinical and scheduling needs for several years. They were interested in further automation and reduction of the paperwork required to document home care visits and importantly were interested reducing their mileage reimbursement expenses as gas prices were hitting an all time high. Unity selected and implemented the new point-of-care visit manager solution from CellTrak™. For the mobile care staff, Unity selected the robust and secure BlackBerry smart phones running on the Verizon network.
Lori Shamp, Director Private Home care Services at Unity commented, “CellTrak has been very easy to work with and once the interface was ready for Allscripts we experienced what the full value of the integrated mobile point of care solution could be” Ms. Shamp added, “The experience across our offices and with our homecare aides has been very positive as CellTrak is easy to use and great to work with”.
Unity strives to work to educate the patient and family and maintain strict adherence to the physician’s orders and plans of treatment, including regular follow-up visits with the physician. Importantly the usage of CellTrak has helped caregivers spend more time on care and less time on paperwork.
Michael K. Wons, President and CEO of CellTrak Technologies added, “It has been a pleasure working with the team at Unity. The new integrated visit verification solution continues to improve and work to address the automation needs enabling the care team to spend more time on care and less time on paperwork.”
In addition to the integrated visit verification features of the solution, the GPS features available as part of CellTrak takes the guess work out of calculating mileage. GPS tracks the mileage to and from each patient’s home and immediately stores it in the system. It also gives staff members the ability to get directions from wherever they are to a patient’s home.
