Well Being in Ohio--all is not well
This link goes to http://www.well-beingindex.com/files/2010WBIrankings/OH_StateReport.pdf a well-being report as it pertains to Ohio and compares with the rest of the nation. You will note that Ohio generally scores very low, with a bit more deviation across the State. As a long-term Ohioan, this report is disturbing,
We invite you to (1) study this report, and then think about what you can do in your practice, in services you offer, and in your communications to your communities to make an impact for health, for wellness.
(2) Your State and Federal legislators are home now, and anxious to hear from you. Please make contact with your State Senators, Representatives, and your Congressional delegation. Tell them how you feel about the state of health in Ohio, about Medicare cuts, about BWC rates, about the difficulty people have in getting insurance coverage, and the behavior of some insurance companies toward chiropractic treatments.
And finally, (3) we at OSCA will see what we can do with this information, and how it can fit into our communications agenda.
