81. Self-Reliance, Options And Security For Minnesota Seniors
    Not as many seniors will need to enter nursing more inhome services and other programsthat foster MYTH Reforming long-term care in minnesota will increase

    Extractions: MYTHS VS. FACTS MYTH: Minnesota is prepared to handle the growing population of seniors. FACT: The number of seniors in Minnesota will double from 600,000 to 1.2 million people in the next 30 years. In the last 10 years the number of nursing home beds available for seniors has been decreasing by roughly 300 to 400 each year. Even more telling, though, is that about 40,000 Minnesotans are now in nursing homes, sometimes because no other choices are available to them. Without substantive change, there will be no options for older adults. MYTH: People may be living longer, but they will be healthier. We won't need as many care facilities and support services. FACT: We will live longer and be healthier. Not as many seniors will need to enter nursing homes. However, that will mean more assisted living facilities, more in-home services and other programs that foster independence. Also, because of the huge increase in the population of older Minnesotans, at some point many more will be in greater need of services, more will be living alone, they will be older and more will have chronic illnesses and physical limitations. MYTH: Reforming long-term care in Minnesota will increase the state's budget woes.

Email this page From the May 1999 ACP-ASIM Observer By Deborah Gesensway Despite showing a slight setback for primary care overall, the 1999 Match brought generally good news to internal medicine. The number of applicants that matched to the three types of internal medicine residency programs that train doctors for careers in internal medicine or its subspecialties categorical, primary care and medicine-pediatricsrose 0.2% this year, for a total of 5,393 filled positions. The Match fill rate nationally for internal medicine was 94%. In addition, 1,275 applicants matched in preliminary internal medicine programs, representing an increase of nearly 8%. Most of these students, however, will pursue careers in other specialties, such as anesthesiology, radiology and dermatology after one year of internal medicine training. For family practice, this year's Match results were not so good. The specialty posted a 4.6% decline and filled only 2,683 residencies through the Match, a drop from 2,814 in 1998 and 2,905 in 1997. Its fill rate was 83%.

    Extractions: MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - The Minnesota Senior Federation announced Tuesday that it has negotiated an agreement under which any member can get drugs mailed from Canada at about half the U.S. retail price. Seniors' organizations in Wisconsin and Indiana joined the federation in negotiating the agreement with CanadaRx, a federation's metro region who helped negotiate the contract. "But it's the best we can do until our government leaders get the guts to stand up to the drug companies." Under the program, anyone can join the advocacy group and ask his or her physician to mail or fax prescriptions for any of about 1,800 drugs to CanadaRx. On average, prices are about 45 percent cheaper than in the United States, federation officials said. Because it takes two or three weeks to get the prescriptions, officials said most users will be people who regularly take drugs to treat heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, arthritis or other chronic conditions.
