Vegetable chili, hearty soups, baked sweet potatoes, roasted squash, and whole-grain casseroles are all examples of meals that provide warmth, flavor, and nutrition. Healthy eating isn't about avoiding comfort. It's about finding comfort in foods that help you feel your best.

People want to know why costs are rising.
One reason?

Unnecessary ER visits or going to a facility that does not contract with your medical insurance provider (BCBS or PHP). Since they aren't contracted with your health plan, the facility charges more back to "the plan" (that's us).

➡️Now, of course, if you need emergency care, GO!

But we find many people go to the ER when Urgent Care can handle it.

Your urgency may not be an emergency.

Review the list below to find the right level of care for your situation.

Virtual care:
*Colds & Flu
*Rashes
*Sore throats
*Headaches
*Fever
*Allergies
*Acne

Urgent Care:
*Fever & flu symptoms
*Minor cuts, sprains, burns, rashes
*Headaches
*Lower back pain
*Joint pain
*Minor respiratory symptoms
*UTI’s

ER:
If a situation seems life-threatening, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
*Sudden numbness, weakness
*Uncontrolled bleeding
*Seizure or loss of consciousness
*Shortness of breath
*Chest pain
*Head injury/major trauma
*Severe cuts or burns
*Overdose

It's so simple yet one of the most underused benefits we offer.

Early detection not only increases a person's survival rate for most cancers by 90%, but when cancer is caught early, it's less costly on all levels of our human well-being.

And yet - over half of most cancers are diagnosed in later stages.

Preventive cancer screenings are covered under your APS Medical Benefits. There is no cost.

The only thing stopping you is awareness and time...

Now you know so let's not keep the calendar and your well-being waiting - Schedule that cancer screen today!

Check the box:
☑️mammogram screen (women 40-74)
☑️colorectal cancer screen (45-75+ - but this cancer is becoming much more prevalent in younger populations)
☑️prostate cancer screen (men 45/50+)
☑️cervical cancer screen (women 21+)
☑️skin cancer screen

As the weekend approaches, ask yourself what would help you feel refreshed. Maybe it's an earlier bedtime, a walk outdoors, time with friends, or simply an afternoon with nothing scheduled. Rest works best when it's part of your routine, not just your recovery plan.

Sometimes your most productive decision is taking a brief break.

Try a short walk around the block or even through your building to help clear your mind before returning to your next task.

It can feel impossible to set aside extra money right now.

Paychecks are stretched thin.

But when you know you'll have copays and other medical, dental, and vision expenses throughout the year, having that money available is a game-changer for peace of mind.

You don't have to worry about putting that copay, or any extra medical expenses, on a credit card because you've already set money aside.

FSA (flexible spending account) dollars are taken out pre-tax, lowering your taxable income and saving you even more.

Our APS Open/Switch Enrollment window is closing Friday, Oct. 16.

Learn more about how enrolling in the APS Benefits FSA can help you maximize your savings. www.aps.edu/open-enrollment

Rather than focusing on one imperfect day, think about the bigger picture. A healthy lifestyle is built through consistent choices over weeks, months, and years. One setback doesn't define your progress.

Before the weekend begins, spend a few minutes without background noise or distractions. Sit outside, enjoy your morning coffee, or simply take a few deep breaths. Sometimes the healthiest thing you can do is create a little space for your thoughts.
