A big move that could impact what you pay for healthcare in California, but a new bill is already drawing intense opposition from physicians, hospitals, and other health care providers.One California lawmaker is offering a solution—an across the board price cap set by the state.This latest effort to wrangle in skyrocketing costs comes from Assemblyman Ash Kalra (D-San Jose).“The average San Diegan, the average Californian, is not going to put up with the status quo anymore,” Kalra said.He wants to create a commission to set prices on medical services-- with rates similar to Medicare. “Right now, we don't have an open process at all. It's being done privately. It's being set by the private sector and we all pay for it.”SEIU is one of the labor unions backing his plan. The local leader in San Diego says every day, many of his members must make costly decisions. “Am I going to go the hospital and pay that huge co-pay or pay for those prescriptions or do I put groceries on the table?” said SEIU President David Garcias.But opponents argue there is a big downside. “It's not cost of care they're lowering. It's the payment for care that they're lowering,” Dr. Ted Mazer, President of California Medical Association. “The costs still go up.”Mazer is leading the charge against this measure. He says the plan will drive doctors out of the state or encourage them to retire. “ [They’re] in essence saying, it doesn't matter what it costs you to serve the patient, this is all you're going to get. That does not drive the cost curve down, it drives doctors out.”It’s a quick fix he says that could cost you more in the long run. “You're looking at a state that's already facing a shortage of physicians,” Mazer said.Supporters site a New York Times article that says Americans pay up to 20 times as much as people in other countries for the same medical treatments.That's the problem they hope to solve with doctors at the table. “If they're not part of helping us come up with a solution to this, this unsustainable healthcare system is going to take all of us down,” Kalra said.California has seen a similar plan in the past. Back in 2014, voters overwhelmingly struck down a ballot initiative that would have given the state insurance commissioner power to block excessive rate hikes. 2301

‘Tis the season to deck the halls! But will you go with a real or fake tree this Christmas?It’s an age-old debate that surfaces every holiday season.When we spoke to tree buyers, there were strong opinions on both sides. You can’t beat the smell of a real tree, but there are several reasons many opt to purchase a fake one.If you don’t continue to water your real tree, it will dry out, making it a fire hazard.A recent study done by Iowa State University Extension and Outreach found that thousands of insects and spiders could be hiding out in your Christmas tree.If you’re worried cutting down a real tree is bad for the environment, that myth is false. Research by Michigan University says to think of the trees like lettuce or corn; they are crops grown on a farm and are grown to be cut down.But as for the artificial Christmas tree, they are extremely cost effective. You can use them year after year.And if you’re worried that artificial trees are toxic because many of them are made from PVC plastic, well, the Consumer Product Safety Commission says there’s nothing to worry about. However, some tree buyers say the little lead found in the tree is still enough for them to stick with a real tree.Ultimately, the choice is left with families to decide what gets them in the holiday spirit. 1313

2020 is turning out to be a stressful time for everyone. You have the pandemic, protests and the upcoming presidential election.All of this tends to make up most of what we see on social media.More time at home means more time online, which can create feelings of anxiety and stress.A new study by Ohio State University shows more than half of people are changing how they use social media. About a fifth of people are taking a break.Mental health experts say, it’s not surprising.“We're hardwired to see the negative,” said Dr. Kenneth Yeager, a professor at Ohio State University. “We're hardwired to see the things that can harm our wellbeing and that's what we tend to see.”Yeager says many people feel like they don't have control.“Find a way to block certain feeds if they're disturbing to you,” he said. “Again, you are in control of a lot of things and there are some things online that you're never going to be able to control.”Yeager says you need to set limits on social media.If you set it to 30 minutes a day, and you feel anxious before that time is over, log off. Go for a walk or work on projects to clear your mind.Yeager says its mind over matter. Look for the positive, whether it's on social media or just everyday life. 1248
