			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Genital warts, also known as venereal warts, are caused by the HPV virus. Because they are highly contageous and transmitted by sexual contact, it is essential that any individual infected with genital warts takes responsibility for treating them.</p>
<p>Symptoms of genital warts usually include red or pink colored bumps, swellings and lesions that can occur on the penis, vulva, vagina, anus, cervix, rectum and scrotum, accompanied by a an itching or burning feeling. Most <a href="http://genitalwartstreatment.net/genital-warts-symptoms">genital warts are raised from the skin and if scratched</a>, they can cause bleeding. Usually they appear within three months of being exposed to the virus through sexual contact but can remain asympomatic for years.</p>
<p>There are a number of home remedies that that can help lessen the discomfort of genital warts and eventually make them disappear. The topical application of Vitamin E oil or Vitamin A from fish oil over the infected area is an effective <a href="http://genitalwartstreatment.net/">home remedy for genital warts</a>. Applying a slice of fresh garlic, well-known for its antibacterial properties, and affixing it to the area of a genital wart with tape overnight, usually effectively removes the wart within a week&#8217;s time. It&#8217;s important to apply fresh garlic nightly.</p>
<p>Another effective home remedy is a solution made from covering sliced onions with salt overnight, then extracting the juice and applying it to the genital warts daily until they disappear. Applying apple cider vinegar to genital warts using clean cotton balls is another proven remedy, but consistency and patience are important with this cure. Apply the vinegar daily for at least a week or until the warts disappear.</p>
<p>Other treatment that can be pursued at home include the topical application of fresh aloe vera juice or the gel from the inside of an aloe vera leaf. There are a number of fresh produce items that contain enzymes effective at shrinking the warts, including papaya, banana peel, pineapple and figs. Tape a slice of the fresh fruit to the affected area for several hours, then rinse with warm water and repeat daily.</p>
<p>Increasing the amount of amino acids in the daily diet from foods such as onions, eggs, citrus fruits, asparagus and garlic can help treat genital warts. Increasing foods rich in folic acid and beta-carotene has proven helpful as well, including dark green and leafy vegetables, tomatoes, squash, mangos, cabbage and bell peppers.</p>
<p>Because warts tend to thrive in moisture, keep the affected genital area as clean and dry as possible during the healing process.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="KonaBody">
<p>Medical Mutual of Ohio’s decision to drop Premier Health Partners from its network has left one Premier hospital, Upper Valley Medical Center, in limbo.</p>
<p>Medical Mutual is the sole third-party administrator of the Miami County health system’s self-insured health plan.</p>
<p>Mike Maiberger, UVMC’s president and CEO, said in a prepared statement Wednesday, Nov. 11, that UVMC is in the process of putting a plan in place “to ensure that UVMC employees will have the same, or a very similar, health insurance plan with another third-party administrator in the event that we are unable to reach an agreement with Medical Mutual.”</p>
<p>UVMC is Miami County’s largest employer. The decision affects 1,120 UVMC employees, plus 12 retirees who received health-care benefits as part of an early-retirement package in the 1990s. Employees were told of the decision Tuesday through a newsletter, hospital spokeswoman Gail Peterson said.</p>
<p>Medical Mutual confirmed Tuesday that it is terminating its agreement with Premier as of Jan. 1, 2010.</p>
<p>Ed Byers, Medical Mutual’s manager of media relations, said Wednesday that no plans to resume negotiations with Premier have been made. Medical Mutual received about 100 calls Wednesday from Dayton-area members seeking more information, he said. Medical Mutual members may call (877) 328-6664.</p>
<p>Premier spokeswoman Diane Ewing had said Tuesday that Premier’s proposed reimbursement rate for Upper Valley Medical Center was significantly less than those proposed for Premier’s other three hospitals: Miami Valley and Good Samaritan hospitals, and Atrium Medical Center. On Wednesday, Ewing said the lower proposed reimbursement rate for UVMC was not related to the fact that Medical Mutual is UVMC’s sole third-party administrator.</p>
<p>Medical Mutual is the third insurer to drop Premier Health Partners in the past five years. Humana Inc. dropped Premier a year ago, and Premier and Anthem were separated for one year after a contract showdown in late 2004. Premier rejoined the Anthem network in 2006.</p>

<p>If you have a pre-existing condition that carries high risks for your insurance company, you may have trouble finding an affordable health plan. In fact, companies are not forced to insure you. If you are too risky, they can reject your application.</p>
<p>More than half of all insured people get their insurance from their companies. Group insurance plans reduce risk by sharing the cost equally. But, what if you can&#8217;t get into a group plan?</p>
<p>States offer a type of health plan called &#8220;risk pools.&#8221; Risk pools are intended to provide insurance to the uninsurable.</p>
<p><strong>What Is A Risk Pool?</strong></p>
<p>First, let&#8217;s look at how group insurance works. Even risky individuals can be covered under group health insurance at little cost to insurance companies because everyone shares expenses and risks. When the company has to shell out extra for claims made by a certain individual, the rate of the whole group goes up.</p>
<p>With individual health plans, there is no group. It&#8217;s just you. So, private insurance companies look at your medical history and risks. This is what determines your rate.</p>
<p>A risk pool is like a group of all the people within a certain state who can&#8217;t get private insurance because of pre-existing conditions and other health risks. It works in much the same way as group insurance does, except that the group in this case is not the company, but all the individuals in the state who can&#8217;t get insured.</p>
<p>Because they are obviously risky, risk pools cost more than regular insurance. This is not a government support program like Medicare or Medicaid aimed at low-income earners. Risk pools are usually quite expensive.</p>
<p><strong>Does My State Have A Risk Pool?</strong></p>
<p>Not every state offers risk pools, but most do. There are risk pools in Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Washington, Wisconsin, West Virginia and Wyoming.</p>
<p>Each state&#8217;s risk pool varies. You definitely have to be a resident of the state in which you apply. Other than that, the requirements are different in each state. In order to qualify, they may require that you prove that you&#8217;ve been rejected by an insurance provider because of a high health risk.</p>
<p>In most states, you can&#8217;t get a risk pool health plan if you qualify for Medicare or Medicaid. Some states also have an enrollment cap, meaning that they will only accept a certain number of applicants to the program each year.</p>
<p>Risk pools are operated by non-profit healthcare organizations. Currently, almost 200,000 people are enrolled in risk pools, which is not a large number if you consider how many Americans are uninsured. Some states, like Tennessee, are starting to have special programs for kids and specific diseases like diabetes.</p>
<p>Risk pools are convenient for individuals who are having trouble getting insured. You can take out a short-term plan to cover a gap in your employment or insurance.</p>
<p>If you have a pre-existing condition that puts you at high risk, you may feel like you should stick with your group plan so that you can stay covered. This might mean staying at a lousy job that you would just as soon ditch otherwise. Risk pools offer you more choices for your health insurance coverage.</p>

<p>Health insurance concerns almost everybody in the US these days. You may get a health plan from an employer, but probably have some options to choose from, and that choice can be confusing. Millions of Americans do not get health insurance at work, and they need to find coverage on the individual health plan market. Finding an affordable and quality medical plan is even more complex than choosing a group benefit from work!</p>
<p>&#13;The best choice for you, and your family, will depend upon many things. For one thing, available policies vary by local area or zip code. Your age, health status, budget and expectations will also affect your choice.</p>
<p>&#13;Younger families, without any severe health problems, will probably have an easy time finding affordable coverage. Older Americans, who are not quite old enough for Medicare, will have a harder time. And of course, those who already have a serious health issue will have a harder time finding a low cost medical policy, if they can find a private plan that accepts them at all!</p>
<p>&#13;If you do get declined for individual health insurance, know that every state has a high risk plan to cover people like you! You should find a qualified insurance agent or your state insurance commission in order to find out what the next step is in your state.</p>
<p>&#13;If you get accepted, but a health condition causes a rate increase that really strains your budget, consider raising the deductible. The premium difference between a $500 deductible and a $2500 deductible can be hundreds of dollars every month. When faced with high costs of medical coverage, people need to purchase a policy to save them financial collapse, and not to cover every small expense.</p>
<p>&#13;PPO plans are popular because they use a network to contain costs, but still allow some flexibility. In general, a covered person may leave the network if they accept less coverage. Of course, emergencies and some other limited situations will still provide full coverage. Make sure you check with your insurance company if you seek non-emergency coverage outside the network.</p>
<p>&#13;HSA plans work with a health savings account, and they allow a participant to make tax deductible contributions to an interest earning account. This account can be used to pay a higher deductible on health claims, and also for some other medical services. This is a good choice for good savers. The HSA money rolls over, so you never lose your contributions if you do not use them. Then, at Medicare age, you can withdraw the money without a penalty.</p>
<p>&#13;HMO plans use a nework, much like a PPO. The difference is that under most situations, they will not provide any coverage for non-network medical services. Of course, emergencies are generally covered. Certain medical services that are not provided by the HMO network may also be approved for coverage, but that needs to be authorized before seeking care.</p>
<p>&#13;In order to find the best health coverage for you, and your family, compare the available plans, and make sure you understand your policy. In my experience, people tend to be satisfied with their coverage when they understand it before they have to make a claim!</p>
