The Four Stages of Life:













How to keep more of your own paycheck

The flu has been going around in our neck of the woods lately, so we wanted to share some health and wellness tips with you this week. Always use good judgment when going online to address medical needs. An interesting web site where you can order your own medical tests instead of paying whatever the doctor or hospital charges is www.directlabs.com/index.php There are a number of prescription programs that will save you money as well. To find the Rx program for your state go to http://www.pparx.org/ Low-income seniors who qualify can get the "Eli Lilly" card and really save on their medications. Call 1-877-RX-LILLY. For a $10 fee, Rxaminer will permit users to enter all current prescriptions and returns a list of available generic or other suggested brands for less money. Go to www.rxaminer.com/consult/index.asp

Thanks for the mention, but Rxaminer has not charged consumers for it's service in several years.

Best Regards,
