There are two heat index thresholds — one at 80 and 90 degrees F based on temperatures in the shade as we all know it can be a LOT hotter in direct sunlight. From Bloomberg Law:. The EPA will release a report today indicating the heat wave season is a month and a half longer today than it was in the s, and the average heat wave is a third longer.
Very much needed…more workers are dying of heat-related causes than ever; human-caused climate change is speeding up; and injury totals climb along with temperatures. This despite the myriad and well-documented problems with Medicare Advantage —. From a Medicare Advantage member:. Only four states — Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts and New York — prohibit insurers from denying a Medigap policy if the enrollee has preexisting conditions such as diabetes or heart disease.
Traditional Medicare — managed by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services — allows access to pretty much any physician, therapist, hospital or facility. Handing Medicare over to private insurers limits choice, access, and patient control over their healthcare.

First, the Supreme Court rejected the Purdue Pharma opioid settlement agreement — thereby allowing victims to pursue legal action against the Sackler family. The settlement would have shielded the Sackler family — many of whom were top execs and owners of Purdue — from personal liability. The settlement would have allowed these killers to keep some of their billions while avoiding any potential criminal or civil liability.
The downside is the settlement would have provided hundreds of millions of dollars for treatment and recovery services for addicts …losing those dollars is a tragedy. That said, its very likely the Sacklers and Purdue will still have to provide funds to victims…and some of the Sacklers will now face civil — and potentially criminal — prosecution.
