'YES on 79' Launches First TV Ad Vs. $78 Million Drug Industry Ad-Blitz
Consumer, Health & Senior Advocates' TV Ad Is 'David' to Drug Industry's Deceitful $78M 'Goliath' Ad Campaign. AARP Endorses Prop 79 as Schwarzenegger Backs Pharma's Measure
WHAT: Roll Out of First TV Ad for 'Yes on Proposition 79' Campaign (Cheaper Drugs More Californians Can Count On)
WHEN: Thursday, September 29, 2005 11:00 a.m.
WHERE: AIDS Healthcare Foundation Executive Offices 6255 Sunset Blvd., Suite 2100 (at Argyle) Hollywood CA 90028
WHO: Michael Weinstein, President, AIDS Healthcare Foundation and introducing (via television commercial) Leona Tockey, a Bay Area California resident with high monthly prescription drug costs
*Visual: copies of the 60 second television ad for 'Yes on Prop. 79' campaign will be provided to the media
LOS ANGELES, Sept. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- On the heels of the American Association of Retired Persons' (AARP) endorsement of California's Proposition 79 earlier today, advocates representing millions of California consumers, senior citizens, patients, and workers in the 'Yes on Proposition 79' campaign will unveil their first television commercial for the campaign's drug discount ballot measure in a press conference and commercial screening in Los Angeles, Thursday, September 29th at 11:00am.
"Officials in Washington and Sacramento have largely given a blank check to the pharmaceutical industry, and hardworking Americans everywhere are now paying for it with their pocketbooks and their lives," said Michael Weinstein, President of AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF), a co-sponsor of the 'Yes on 79' campaign and producer of this first Prop 79 television spot. "Leona Tockey, who is featured in this commercial, is but one of millions having trouble affording her monthly medicines. The $78 million that Pharma is spending here in California on a TV advertising blitz to hoodwink California voters about Proposition 78 -- which one LA Times' columnist even called 'bamboozlement' -- could easily help Leona, or others like her, pay for her $400 monthly prescription drug bills-for the next 16,000 years. The drug industry and its corporate lobbyists are instead circling the wagons to blur the truth about Proposition 79 and protect the status quo."
Pharmaceutical companies have poured a record-breaking $78 million into Proposition 78, a smokescreen measure designed to defeat the health and consumer advocate-supported Prop 79 -- because they fear the real, enforceable discounts that Prop 79 would provide.
Because the 'Yes on Prop. 79' campaign has, and continues to be, so financially outmatched by the drug industry cartel and its $78 million media campaign for its own sham ballot measure, the 'Yes on Prop. 79' supporters were forced to embrace the exact opposite approach to producing and running their own television commercial. Prop. 79 supporters from AHF shot the spot on a shoestring budget (approx. $1,200); utilized the compelling story of Ms. Tockey, a real Californian with expensive monthly drug bills who would actually benefit from Prop. 79 (unlike in the ubiquitous and slick Prop 78 ads, which use a white-haired, patrician looking Hollywood actor to portray an allegedly concerned doctor); the group has made (and is making) limited cable buys for the spot (CNN, A&E, Lifetime, etc) in Los Angeles, the Bay Area and either Sacramento or San Diego for roughly $5,000 to $10,000.
"We are urging all concerned Californians -- our 'Vioxx voters' -- to do what Washington and Sacramento officials, including Governor Schwarzenegger, are unwilling or unable to do: take back some degree of control over a drug industry run amok and vote 'Yes' on Proposition 79," added AHF's Weinstein.
Proposition 79: Cheaper Drugs More Californians Can Count On, supported by Health Access California, Consumers Union, California Association of Retired Americans, Congress of California Seniors, AIDS Healthcare Foundation, the League of Women Voters, and over one hundred other endorsing organizations, will provide affordable prescription drugs for 8-10 million Californians, using the purchasing power of the state to leverage enforceable discounts from prescription drug companies. A competing measure, the pharmaceutical industry-backed Proposition 78, relies on manufacturers to volunteer discounts, and has no enforcement mechanism.

| Medica Offers Education Initiative on New Medicare Prescription Drug Program MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 26, 2005--Medica, Minnesota's leading health care provider, is offering an education program to help those eligible for Medicare understand the federal government's new prescription drug program, Medicare Part D. Medica's education initiative is a community service that informs seniors and/or their caregivers about the many details of Medicare Part D before health plans begin marketing their Part D programs starting October 1, 2005. After that date, it is expected that seniors will be flooded with materials about specific plans offered by health insurers. The Medica initiative is designed to arm seniors with information that will help them make wise choices about which Medicare Part D plans would be appropriate for them. "Medicare Part D will be a valuable benefit to many, many seniors," said Mark Owen, vice president and general manager of the Medica Center for Healthy Aging and Medica's Individual Business. "However, there is an array of sometimes confusing information out there, and Medica wants to ensure that qualified individuals are aware of their options and how to enroll if they choose to do so." Medicare Part D is a voluntary prescription drug coverage program for the more than 40 million Americans eligible for Medicare. It is part of the Medicare Prescription Drug Improvement and Modernization Act passed in 2003. It is designed primarily to help seniors save money on the cost of their prescription drugs and to safeguard against unforeseen catastrophic drug costs they might otherwise incur. Although it is a federal program, those wishing to enroll in Medicare Part D must do so through private health insurers such as Medica, who will administer the benefit. The program will go into effect on January 1, 2006, with an initial enrollment period running between November 15, 2005, and May 15, 2006. Those currently eligible for the program must enroll during this period to avoid paying a monthly penalty. Following the initial enrollment period, eligible individuals may enroll in Medicare Part D during an annual enrollment period from November 15 to December 31. Medica began offering informational meetings in August and will continue holding them through mid-December in communities throughout Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin for Medica members interested in learning more about Medicare Part D program options. The health care provider has also published a booklet, "The Simple Facts," to explain the program in greater detail. The booklet is available by calling Medica's Center for Healthy Aging at 1-800-906-5432. About Medica Medica is Minnesota's largest HMO, largest PPO, and leading non-profit and independent provider of health plans. Medica has 1.2 million members and 24,000 providers in a regional health care network service area that includes 98 percent of Minnesotans and a growing number of adjoining counties in Wisconsin, North Dakota, and South Dakota. Medica also offers national network coverage to employers who also have employees outside the Medica regional network. Medica has the highest accreditation status, Excellent, from the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA(R)) for its Minnesota and North Dakota Medicaid HMO plans and commercial health plans. About the Medica Center for Healthy Aging The Medica Center for Healthy Aging is a comprehensive resource dedicated to serving the health care needs of Minnesota's senior population. The Center's staff provides resources for Medica members looking to find the best short- or long-term health care coverage to fit their needs.

| UnitedHealth Group to Launch New Medicare Prescription Drug Benefit Nationwide MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 23, 2005--UnitedHealth Group (NYSE:UNH): -- Drug Plans Emphasize Convenience, Coverage and Affordability for Seniors -- Unique Partnerships Will Optimize Services and Value for Consumers Ovations, the UnitedHealth Group (NYSE:UNH) business dedicated to serving the health and well-being of people age 50 and older, announced today that all of its contracts for the new Medicare Prescription Drug Program (Part D) have been approved by the federal government. Under this authority, UnitedHealth Group through Ovations will offer stand-alone prescription drug plans in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and all five U.S. Territories. Ovations also qualified to enroll lower income Medicare recipients and individuals who are eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid in every region except Nevada. "The Medicare prescription drug benefit represents an important opportunity to provide seniors with affordable access to prescription drugs," said Lois Quam, chief executive officer of Ovations. "Our mission is to bridge the gaps in American health care and offer seniors broad benefits and services tailored to their individual goals." The stand-alone Part D offering is named the AARP MedicareRx Plan and carries the exclusive endorsement of AARP, the largest and most highly respected membership organization serving older Americans. In addition, a number of other affordable Part D plans will be offered by Ovations, including those with $0 premium for individuals enrolled in Medicare Advantage plans. Key features of the AARP MedicareRx Plan include: -- A premium below the national average for such plans, with monthly premiums from $23.00 to $31.00 per month, depending upon the geographic region in which the individual resides. -- No deductible. Consumers will have first-dollar coverage on prescription drugs. -- Convenient access to prescription drugs guaranteed through the participation of more than 90 percent of the nation's retail pharmacies, including very strong national partners such as Walgreens, CVS, Rite Aid, Brooks-Eckerd and Target. -- The option for consumers to receive prescription medications through both retail stores and mail-order services, depending on what is most convenient, comfortable and appropriate to their personal situation. -- A plan built on the foundation of providing the nation's leading prescription drug card program, serving more than 2.3 million seniors, and the largest supplemental Medicare offering, serving four million seniors. In 2004 alone, the prescription drug program delivered nearly $500 million in prescription drug savings to its members. -- Services provided through an established and fully dedicated company with the necessary resources to successfully meet the needs of seniors. This includes a strong financial foundation and unique partnerships to help ensure an ongoing and stable program. -- Walgreens Health Initiatives (WHI), a well-known, highly-respected and trusted company with extensive experience around individual customer services, will serve as the pharmacy benefit administrator for the program. The AARP MedicareRx Plan allows Medicare recipients nationwide to select a Part D plan of the highest quality. Dawn Sweeney, President of AARP Services said, "AARP has a legacy of supporting and creating services that meet the needs of older Americans. For more than 40 years, our pharmacy programs have done just that - helping members realize savings on their prescription drug costs. This new program continues that tradition, and we are pleased to work with UnitedHealth Group to have the AARP MedicareRx Plan join our portfolio of health care solutions." Medicare-eligible individuals can begin enrolling in the new Medicare Prescription Drug Program beginning November 15th. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) will assign lower income Medicare recipients and Medicaid-eligible individuals into Part D plans and will notify them of their plan assignments beginning in November 2005.

PRWEB) July 17, 2005 -- Not all pharmacies are the same. This release has been composed to help all identify what they ought to look around for when doing business with internet Canadian pharmacies online.
Customers will find the same prescription medications at Drug-Store-Pharmacy.com online as they would see at the corner pharmacy, with the big difference being how much it costs. For name brand medicines, pharmacies in Canada charge in the vicinity of 40-70% less than what someone would spend for identical prescriptions in the US. While at this time, the US considers the order of prescription medications from Canada to be illegal, they allow it to happen, saving U.S.A. citizens millions of dollars each year.
For every legitimate online pharmacy, there are 4 others which probably aren't. That means that as high as 80 percent of internet sites which offer Canada drug sales are registered in another country altogether! With odds like that, how will anyone ensure that they are receiving reliable and safe medications from pharmacies in Canada?
Another thing to look for on the website would be an actual physical address in Canada. This should be prominently displayed somewhere on the web page. If you cannot find it, you may have to look under the contact us information. If it still doesn't exist, consider that cause for alarm, and move on to another site.
Every honest online pharmacy in Canada will have on its website a toll-free number (Drug-Store-Pharmacy.com / 1-877-479-2455) for you to contact them. Again, this may be found on the home page, or you may have to look for their contact information elsewhere on the internet site. In any event, if they don't supply a way for you to reach them directly, consider shopping for another web site to order from.
When it comes time for customers to place their order, for their own protection, they should ensure that they ask for your medical history as well as a valid prescription from your doctor. You will want to consider it a red flag if they do not ask for this data. When you gamble with a pharmacy who is more interested in making a buck than in you, you are playing with fire. Play it smart and don't do it.

EDITOR'S NOTE
-------------------------------------
I hope we're catching you in a relaxed mood. In any case, there's definitely some potentially stress-reducing information contained in this edition. Check the Industry Events section, and you'll find a link to "FDA Inspections - What to Expect and How to Prepare for GMP Inspections." When I studied the description of this two-day course from CfPIE (The Center for Professional Innovation & Education), I identified an array of issues and questions you're likely to face in advance of FDA inspections and audits. Granted, the training won't enable you to sidestep FDA scrutiny. But, it should help you head into the next inspection with your confidence rising and your anxiety waning.
