SOCIAL SECURITY AND SURVIVORS BENEFITS Although, we often think of social security as a source of income for retirees, there are also monies available to those who were dependent upon a wage earner at the time of the wage earnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death. Most of us are familiar with the one time only lump-sum death benefit of $255.00 which is payable to a spouse or dependent child to help defray final expenses. However, there are also monthly benefits available to survivors as well. To be eligible for monthly survivor benefits a person must meet one of the following requirements: (1) An unmarried surviving child under the age of eighteen, up to the age of twenty if a full-time student. (2) An unmarried surviving child over the age of eighteen who was severely disabled before the age of twenty-two and is still disabled. (3) A dependent widow or widower sixty years old or older. (4) A single mother or widowed father who was benefiting from the earnings of the deceased.

(5) A widow or dependent widower fifty years old or older who is now disabled.

IS NEW NECESSARILY BETTER?

While some of the newer prescription medications on the market represent real breakthroughs, other new drugs are actually no more effective than older, less-expensive medications. As with many consumer goods, we sometimes respond to a new drug on the basis of its advertising. However, those who want something more to go on should dig deeper. By definition, new drugs do not have a track record, so clinical trials offer the best way to assess them. However, it may take years and thousands of study participants before the full side-effect profile of a drug is known. In the meantime, patients should work with their prescribing physicians to identify which medications offer the best results for the least amount of money. Whenever you have questions about a medication your physician has prescribed, we will be happy to provide you with answers. SMITHâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S DRUGS OF FOREST CITY reminds you that medications can be dangerous when not taken as directed. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find us located at 139 E. Main Street, (828) 245-4591, where â&#x20AC;&#x153;Old Fashion Customer Service Meets 21st Century Technology and Healthcare.â&#x20AC;? At our ACHC accredited Home Medical Department, we offer an extensive inventory of home medical equipment, including hospital beds, oxygen concentrators, walkers and wheelchairs. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find everything you need for home care and recovery in one visit. HINT: Because some medications take a while to kick in, stick with the prescribed dose for the prescribed period unless some difficulty arises.
