Care Conversations with Crystal – The Home Healthcare Huddle

12/28/2020

If you or a loved one need long-term care for a chronic illness or, as you age, if you need assistance with the tasks of daily living, you may be interested in home healthcare services. Home healthcare services run the gamut: from medical care provided by nurses or physical therapists to household support such as dressing and bathing.

Do I Really Need Long-Term Care Insurance?

As an attorney certified in elder law planning, I am often asked by clients if they should buy long-term care insurance. The answer is more complicated than you might think. Before getting to the answer, it’s important to identify a myth about long-term care insurance.

The Key to Being an Energetic, Healthy and Unstoppable Leader in 2021 and Beyond

12/17/2020

By Lifestyle Coach, John Allen Mollenhauer “JAM". Creator of the Performance Lifestyle®
I am a lifestyle entrepreneur and performance coach; you can find my articles in Around the Chamber. Upon talking with me, you might expect me to talk about eating and exercise, probably sleep, how you’re thinking, and more among several other aspects of your lifestyle. And if so, you would be, in part, correct. But that level of granularity is not where the conversation starts. It starts with a conversation about achieving your goals, not necessarily "how-to," but rather, "how-you," get into the things and follow through on what you want to accomplish, complete, and realize in your life.

Medicare Supplement Plans or Medigap Insurance are designed to cover care not covered by Medicare Parts A and B like co-pays and deductibles, vision care, hearing aids, fitness programs and other benefits. When you have a Medicare Supplement Plan or Medigap Insurance, Medicare Parts A and B are your primary insurance and the Supplement Plan pays some or all of the expenses that Parts A and B do not pay.

Any Property Tax Relief From COVID-19 Impact?

As 2020 draws to a close (and not a moment too soon) we are all hopeful for a better 2021. Regardless of whether the spread of Covid-19 is slowed, or the civil unrest in our cities calms, the economic pain of 2020 will likely linger through next year. No industries have experienced this pain more, in terms of immediacy and impact, than retail stores, restaurants, hotels, and personal service establishments. And while elected officials debate programs to try to lessen the sting, one area rarely discussed is property tax relief.

Medicare 101: What Medicare Does Not Cover

12/1/2020

by Staff, Porzio Bromberg & Newman, P.C.
Medicare coverage is complicated and, as we saw in my blog post Medicare 101: What Medicare is and Who is Eligible, it is composed of several parts. As you consider what parts of Medicare to enroll in, you should be aware of what Medicare covers and what it doesn’t cover. That way, you can plan carefully and be sure you are getting the health insurance and services that you need.

Four Health Conditions Caused by Poor Oral Health

12/1/2020

by Dr. Alan Rauchberg, Rauchberg Dental Group
The health of your mouth and body are intertwined and can impact each other more than many people realize. That's not to say that a small oral health problem that you get treated can manifest illness in another part of your body. When left untreated it can impact our body's ability to fight off illness. Not only can routine preventative care keep you from needing invasive dental treatment but it can also preserve your oral health, in turn, your physical well-being.

The Chamber of the Future IS NOW

12/1/2020

Winter 2020-21
In early 2020, the Morris County Chamber of Commerce board of directors approved an ambitious strategic plan. It is meant to be a guiding document, especially so during, as one economist who presented to the chamber indicated, “(one) of the most uncertain times in recent history.” We knew that being innovative and leveraging technology to provide value to members would be vital to create the chamber of the future. Who knew that the COVID-19 pandemic and economic crisis would cause us to accelerate the implementation of the plan as we pivoted to virtual? The future is now.

I am proud of how our members and the chamber team have come together to connect members during this time. In 2020 the (virtual) chamber re-started the Morris Members Council and Municipal Forum. In addition, we rolled out a series of new ways to communicate with our members, including a redesigned website, new newsletters and reinvigorated social media, as well as marketing opportunities for members. New committees launched include the:

Hispanic Affairs Council
Business Strategy and Tactics Forum
Executive Councils for Chief Human Resources and Chief Communication Officers
Real Estate Forum
Morris Mastermind
