Medicare coverage also focuses on short-term services for conditions that are expected to improve, such as physical therapy to help you regain your function after a fall or stroke.

Medicaid is a joint federal and state program that helps people with low income and assets pay for some or all of their health care bills. You may qualify if you have high medical bills, receive Supplementary Security Income (SSI), and/or meet certain financial requirements.
Medicaid covers nursing home services for all eligible people age 21 and older. Medicaid also covers home and community-based services for people who would need to be in a nursing home if they did not receive the home care services. In most states, Medicaid will also cover services that will help you remain in your home, such as personal care services, case management, and help with laundry and cleaning. Medicaid will not pay for your rent, mortgage, utilities, or food.

Just as there are many kinds of long term care services and supports, so is there a wide range of costs for them. And while some people may qualify for a public program to help pay for these expenses, most people use a variety of options, including long term care insurance, personal income and savings, life insurance, annuities, and reverse mortgages. As our population ages, new financial products are continuously offering more options.

I am enjoying the autumn colors while working on new pieces to be performed early 2021. First up is a solo piece for harp.
Also I want thank the Swedish foundation “Stiftelsen Den Nordiska Första S:t Johannislogens Jubelfond” for awarding me with a scholarship. I am very honored and it means a lot, especially in theses times, where music life and performance is under a lot of pressure.
Veterinary professionals provide routine, preventative and corrective care for animal patients. Vets do everything from performing routine exams, blood work, diagnosis, surgery, disease diagnosis, and prescribing medications.
If helping animals is your passion, and you plan to attend veterinary school, you should consider the pre-vet track at UNI.
It is important to keep in mind that the pre-veterinary track is not an academic major; rather, it’s a suggested program of study that prepares students to apply to professional school upon completing their undergraduate degree. Pre-vet students may choose a major in any area, though most commonly students will major in a scientific field such as biology or biochemistry.
A biology degree will allow you to start on pre-veterinary courses right away making a biology major an efficient pathway to prepare you for veterinary school.
Employment of veterinarians is projected to grow 17 percent from 2020 to 2030, much faster than the average for all occupations.
Why pre-veterinary at UNI?
“My four years as a biology student at UNI has been nothing short of amazing. The small classes and the helpful professors have created a small knit community that optimized my learning.
McCollum Science Hall has easily become my second home; it is the place that allowed me to meet many new people, find my passion for animal medicine, and plan my future of becoming a veterinarian.
I am grateful for the opportunities UNI has given me and I am happy to be able to call it my alma mater.
Kaitlynn Solberg graduated from the UNI Department of Biology in the spring of 2021 with a degree in biology and a pre-veterinary track.
Why choose a biology major for your pre-vet track?
Biology is the most common undergraduate major for veterinary students. Working with the UNI Department of Biology advising office and faculty, students are coached to complete Pre-Vet prerequisite courses and admission requirements. Students completing a Bachelor’s degree in Biology are admitted at a high rate to Pre-Vet programs.
The Pre-Vet Club, supported through the Biology Department, allows students professional networking opportunities with other students interested in Veterinary careers, professionals in the Cedar Valley for job shadowing and employment opportunities and access to Admission staff at popular Vet schools. And our Pre-Vet Club advisor, Dr. McClenahan, is a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine himself!

Last week's riff on how the coming ubiquity of wireless networks could lead to a new and better form of digital rights management brought out both supporters and detractors. The former were idealists and engineers, while the latter were cynics and businesspeople. Where will we get the bandwidth, they asked? What kind of person would allow others to muck around in their computer looking for CDs and movies? What kind of writer would even recommend it? Didn't I know that it's a cruel world, and no computer is safe without a firewall, galoshes, and a barbed wire perimeter?
It is a cruel world, I suppose, but everything we do requires facing that danger and calculating the risk. I wasn't advocating next week throwing a shareware peer-to-peer application on every PC in America. Mine was a big idea, one that feels inevitable to me, but even inevitable takes time. So I feel okay about that part of last week's column, but there is another part — a part nobody thought to complain about or even notice — where I feel now I was in grave error. I think
