Parkinson’s Is On The Rise PD is the fastest growing neurological disorder. Since the average age at onset is 60, and the median age of our community is 65, many physicians believe we are on the cusp of an emerging pandemic. And as life expectancy increases, so does the number of people living with the disease which is expected to double in the next 15 years. It is a disease of the central nervous system that touches almost every aspect of daily living, including: movement, mood, speech, eating and drinking, sleep, and cognitive changes. It progresses over time, robbing a person of independence through increasing complications, and impacts the loved ones of people with Parkinson’s as well. Currently there is no objective test to diagnosis PD. Typically, a neurologist takes a careful medical history and performs a thorough neurological examination, looking in particular for two or more of the cardinal motor symptoms to be present: resting tremor, rigidity (stiffness), bradykinesia (slowness of movement) and postural instability. Following are the 10 early warning signs of Parkinson Disease: • Tremor or Shaking • Small Handwriting • Loss of Smell • Trouble Sleeping • Trouble Moving or Walking

For over twenty years, Parkinson Foundation Western Pennsylvania (PFWPA) has been improving the quality of life of individuals with Parkinson’s and their loved ones while creating a safe, nurturing and welcoming community. We advocate for our community and educate our region about PD. We nurture relationships among those involved in the care of persons with PD. We connect people to the information, support services, programs and activities that they need to enhance wellness, live an active, engaged life moving forward and delay the progression of the disease. Throughout Western Pennsylvania, we offer over 50 Parkinson’s-specific exercise classes and 20 support groups along with educational programming for people with PD, their care partners and families. Many of the programs are now offered virtually. It is through the generosity of our community that we are able to provide quality programs and services to the local community. Editor’s Note: For more information about PD and the Foundation, please call 412.837.2542 or email info@pfwpa.org. See ad on page 21.

Studies have shown that people would rather give than receive. By utilizing specific gifting strategies, not only can you make yourself feel better, you may also reap additional tax savings! Below is a list of tax benefits as well as charitable gifting options. TAX BENEFITS • Can be gift tax-free – In 2021, taxpayers can gift $15,000 per beneficiary without filing a gift tax return and without paying any gift tax. In addition, annual contributions of up to $15,000 can be made to 529 savings plans tax-free as well as potentially qualifying for a state income tax deduction. • Reduces your gross estate – By gifting assets to other individuals, you can reduce your gross estate and, therefore, the amount of your estate that may be subject to the federal estate tax. This tax is imposed on gross estates exceeding $11.7 million in 2021, and the exemption is effectively reduced by any past gifts made in excess of the annual exclusion. Additionally, gifts ensure that any future appreciation occurs outside of your estate. • Shifts income to a lower bracket – Transferring high income producing assets to someone in a lower tax bracket than yourself not only benefits them, it also removes this amount from your
income tax return. Depending on disparity between your two tax brackets, a great deal of tax savings can be had and the recipient will receive more of that income. •R educes AGI – Adjusted Gross Income (AGI), the last number on the first page of the 1040, is one of the more important numbers on a tax return. By gifting income-producing assets and removing those monies from your tax return, you can reduce your AGI and therefore decrease the thresholds for certain itemized deductions.
COMMUNITY RESOURCES AND SERVICES
Is it Better to Give or to Receive?
CHARITABLE GIVING OPTIONS •O utright Gifts – This encompasses a direct donation of cash or property and the taxpayer receives a deduction based on the classification of the charity, the property involved, and the taxpayer’s AGI. •Q ualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) – QCDs are direct transfers from an IRA to a charity and can act as an alternative option for Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs). QCDs are simply omitted from taxable income. Taxpayers over age 70½ can utilize QCDs up to $100,000 per year. Editors Note: This article was submitted by Erin Weber.

“We exist to challenge the status quo by redefining the relationship between consumer and coverage through a high value service model while providing unbiased healthcare solutions.” Sandy and her husband Bob who had recently started their Medicare were referred to MediConnect by her sister-in– law, who had heard our radio show. At the initial meeting with Sandy and Bob, her exact words were “we are hemorrhaging money”. They had made their plan decisions based on their research. After getting to understand their situation, we were able to uncover an opportunity, based on the enrollment regulations, to move them both to a more cost-effective plan saving them thousands of dollars. Our primary goal is to educate the communities to the nuances of Medicare and to provide unbiased advice. It’s fantastic that we all have this information at our fingertips, and we applaud those who make the effort to do research on their own. The problem is that there are so many moving parts to Medicare and the rules and regulations are unforgiving if you make a mistake, often leading to permanent financial penalties.
MediConnect Insurance is the region’s largest fully independent healthcare advisory firm. MediConnect provides expert advice in a simplistic manner while ensuring the most comprehensive options are available in budgetfriendly packages. Furthermore, there is never a fee or cost for our services. MediConnect works with every insurance company in the region to provide access and understanding to coverage options for every individual.

REHABILITATION HOSPITALS Rehabilitation Hospitals, sometimes referred to as Inpatient Rehabilitation Hospitals, provide intensive Rehab to Patients who are generally medically stable but need help to recover from injury or other medical conditions. They can be found within hospital or in a free-standing building. Rehab Hospitals need to meet a minimum number of physician visits, increased daily rehab hours (3hrs/day, 5 days/week) of PT, OT and/ or Speech, and interdisciplinary services including increased RN oversight and nursing hours per day). 84 GREATER PITTSBURGH AREA - WINTER - SUMMER 2021

Many seniors are eager to buy or sell a home after sitting on the sidelines during the pandemic but worry about exposing themselves to COVID-19. What should you know about the current state of real estate transactions if you fall into this camp? First, the rules are constantly evolving and vary by market. Many new procedures have been instituted, and real estate professionals have been highly committed to keeping everyone safe. SAFE SHOWINGS In most markets, real estate professionals are employing measures for in-person showings that adhere to local health guidelines, promote social distancing, and respect their clients’ personal preferences. For example, during scheduled showings, potential buyers may be asked to wear a face mask or covering and gloves, and use hand sanitizer. Owners may ask that no surfaces are touched— a request that works better if they leave all lights on and keep closet doors open. LEANING ON TECHNOLOGY Agents are using technology to facilitate nearly every aspect of real estate transactions, including client communications and property showings. For example, if you prefer no in-person showings, talk to your
agent about virtual options like virtual open houses. As a buyer, you may want to request a virtual property tour, where your Agent uses a live video service like FaceTime to walk through a home on your behalf, providing a closer look at various features, like the views from windows or the property’s landscaping. While phone calls, email, and text messages have long been popular communication tools, ask your agent about video conferencing options. They’re often a better way to discuss important topics when in-person meetings are difficult or undesirable.

Buying or Selling a Home in the Age of Coronavirus
CONTACTLESS CLOSINGS Technology is also playing a pivotal role in managing transaction paperwork, security deposits, loan applications, closing documents, and more, reducing or eliminating the need for in-person contact. ON A POSITIVE NOTE In most markets, inventories are low, and home prices have remained stable. Additionally, mortgage interest rates are at historically low levels. These factors contribute to a solid real estate market and make it a desirable time to buy or sell a home.

What is GIFT? GIFT is a grassroots organization started in 2015, it is the kind of effort that lets everyone get involved. The organization engages seniors who are homebound or living in a senior community the opportunities to give back to their own neighborhoods. GIFT’s programs tap into seniors’ abilities to stay active in their community. Before Covid-19 hit, GIFT was very active in weekly programs. GIFT’s “home base” of Squirrel Hill has a particularly large senior population. 35 percent of Squirrel Hill residents are over the age of 60. GIFT was invested in reaching out to seniors in all communities, and providing services/ programs to Rankin, Braddock, Oakland, the South Side and other neighborhoods. GIFT realized from its very inception, that providing people of any age a sense of purpose directly impacts their emotional and physical well being. This was no different for the elderly demographic, “No one really loves to be only a receiver,” said Tombosky, the Founder of GIFT. “We work all our lives to be givers, and then we get to this stage in our life where it seems like more and more, we’re just receiving.
96 GREATER PITTSBURGH AREA - WINTER - SUMMER 2021
We lose this feeling of meaning and purpose in our lives. GIFT is all about reestablishing that, reminding people that if they still have a breath, they still have a purpose.” Now, during the pandemic, this need is even greater than before. Many seniors who would normally have interactions with their families are now completely isolated, staying at home and no one to speak with. GIFT is stepping up, offering an intergenerational phone matching program called CHAT. “Before COVID, I don’t know that everyone could understand that concept — how a senior might feel, that feeling of being really lonely and out of touch” said Tombosky. “But I think now that we’ve all experienced loneliness or not being able to be social or connect to people like we used to, we can now relate and hopefully be more empathetic. “ GIFT’s irreplaceable services affecting our seniors community will be stronger than ever. Despite the devastation of a world pandemic we will keep strong with the community’s help. Editor’s Note: Article submitted by Rochel S.

What is BRiTE Wellness Program? BRiTE is an innovative program that promotes brain and body health and wellness by providing our members with integrated activities in a social environment. The Creative Expression, Fitness, and Music activities offered emphasize the components of everyday life that are associated with better brain health among individuals with normal cognition. The BRiTE Wellness Program was developed to help promote a brighter life for older adults with mild cognitive problems. The Brain Training and Exercise Program exists online, with real people, in real time, doing real activities. The goal of the program is to create a supportive online experience for a community of individuals who have mild changes in their thinking or those wishing to proactively maintain their brain health. BRiTE exists entirely online and has been adapted for those individuals who are unable to come to an on-site program. Each participant has the added benefit of promoting socialization which is a major component of good brain health. The virtual program is offered Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 10:30 a.m.- 2:00 p.m. It is available to any senior living in the community who would like to socialize with others and challenge

themselves with novel educational and fun activities in the privacy of their home. In order to participate, you must have a device (iPad, laptop of desk top computer) with Wi-Fi service. Having a device with Wi-Fi capability allows that participant to see and hear the instructors and other members. However, if no device is available, there is the option to call in from a land line or cell phone. If using a telephone, you do not have the ability to view the class session, but it allows you to hear the instructions and even respond and converse with other participants. In addition to the Creative Expression, Fitness and Music classes, each member has unlimited access to Smartbrain Pro, an interactive computer program that features thousands of interactive exercises with different levels of difficulty, which provides critical cognitive stimulation.

HEALTH AT HOME - HOME HEALTH AGENCIES
Hospice Helps Patients Remain at Home Instead of the Hospital Facing a life-limiting diagnosis is rarely simple. When patients are ready to focus on comfort and quality of life, they may not want an expensive stay in the hospital or skilled nursing facility. Hospice offers an alternative– particularly during COVID-19’s heightened risks and restrictions. Whether the patient has decided the side-effects of their current treatment plan outweigh its benefits, or their care provider has recommended end-of-life care, transitioning to hospice care should be easy and safe for patients, families, caregivers, and physicians. Hospice transitions begin with a team of specialists who confirm the patient’s hospice eligibility with a short assessment. Questions are asked and answered, and the hospice provider supports the patient’s and family’s informed decisions about their preferences for end-of-life care. The patient’s needs and goals come first, and reasonable efforts are made to care for the patient wherever they’re most comfortable. In most cases, this means home. The hospice team–physician, nurse hospice aide, social worker, chaplain, and volunteer–then develops a personalized plan, including any equipment and supplies the patient may require. Patients leaving a hospital or skilled nursing facility can
130 GREATER PITTSBURGH AREA - WINTER - SUMMER 2021
still benefit from any specialized medical equipment they may have used in their care facility–right from the comfort of their home. Medicines that improve quality of life are delivered as well. At home, hospice patients receive day-to-day care from a family caregiver with plenty of assistance and training from the hospice team, either in-person or via telehealth. Each week, team members visit on a schedule designed to meet the patient’s needs. Hospice patients also face fewer restrictions at home than in a facility, so families can work out a visitation plan that’s best for them. If symptoms flare up and additional support is needed, a patient may receive continuous care with 24/7 support from a crisis nurse until symptoms are back under control. Even as levels of service change, Medicare or private insurance continues to cover the cost of care 100%. Most patients with advanced illness want to be home near the end of life. Hospice can provide the expertise, resources, and personnel to make that happen. Editors Note: Article written by Evalisa McClure, general manager for VITAS Healthcare in Pittsburgh. For more information about end-of-life care services, call the nation’s leading provider at 866.759.6695 (available 24/7) or visit VITAS.com. See ad on page 139.

HOSPICE CARE
Hospice Care Definitions
LEVELS OF CARE: RO-ROUTINE CARE – Occurs when regularly scheduled visits are adequate in managing the individual’s disease symptoms. Care is provided at the individual’s private residence or in a healthcare facility. RE-RESPITE CARE – Provided when the family needs time to rest or go out of town for a short time. Care may be provided in a skilled nursing facility. Hospice is responsible for financial arrangements with the facility. GIP – GENERAL IN-PATIENT CARE – Provided in a skilled nursing facility when the symptoms cannot be managed elsewhere. The skilled nursing facility must have 24-hour R.N. coverage as deemed by Medicare guidelines. General in-patient care is usually short in duration. This higher level of care is due to symptoms which are out of control and more intensive nursing services are required. The room and board are covered by hospice during this period. CC-CONTINUOUS CARE – Provided to prevent the individual from going to the hospital when a crisis occurs. continued on page 132

HOSPICE CARE
HOSPICE CARE DEFINITIONS
Hospice Care Definitions continued It also is given when more help is needed to assist the individual and family in coping with the crisis. This level of care is usually provided to the patient at their private residence or in a personal care home or assisted living facility. The criteria for continuous care may include: Severe pain or symptoms which are out of control, psychotic episodes, breakdown of caregiver, imminent death and family unable to cope. Continuous care is typically reserved for crises that require a constant presence by a nurse or care team. THERAPY SERVICES PROVIDED: AR-AROMA THERAPY – Occurs when regularly scheduled visits are adequate in maintaining the individual’s symptom management. Care is provided at the individual’s private residence, a retirement community, an assisted living, or a skilled nursing facility. MA-MASSAGE THERAPY – Used as a method for relaxation to alleviate stress, anxiety and pain with a light hands-on approach, as well as providing an alternative to those who can’t take medication or prefer not to. Massage therapy has become essential in hospice care. This is not reimbursed by Medicare. MU-MUSIC THERAPY – Music Therapy is an established healthcare profession that uses music to address physical, emotional, cognitive, and social needs of individuals. A
132 GREATER PITTSBURGH AREA - WINTER - SUMMER 2021
music therapist creates goals and objectives for their patients and uses music activities and music experiences (listening, composition, improvisation, or playing/singing a familiar song) in order to achieve those goals. This is not reimbursed by Medicare. P-PET THERAPY – There’s nothing like a visit from a four-legged creature to brighten the day of a terminally ill patient. Pet therapy teams visit with patients wherever they reside – at home or in professional care settings. Studies have shown many benefits of pet companionship, ranging from reduced blood pressure and anxiety to relief from boredom, pain and loneliness. This service is not reimbursed by Medicare. 24/7 ADMISSIONS – If a patient qualifies for hospice care, they should be admitted as early as the family requests. Many agencies admit patients to hospice, 24/7, evenings, weekends, and holidays. GRIEF SUPPORT GROUPS – Grief is the normal and universal reaction humans have to the loss of those they love. When your loved one passes, you may go through a period of bereavement and experience grief. Many hospice companies provide Grief Groups that meet and address issues of grief in a supportive group setting.
INDIGENT PATIENTS – Does the hospice accept non funded or indigent patients? This is usually on a case by case basis and at the determination of the hospice company. Many have a non-profit organization that can help support the care of non-covered patients.

A COVID Vaccine is HERE! For long-term care providers who have been on the frontlines of the COVID-19 fight, it’s gratifying to be recognized among America’s highest priority for the vaccine. Long-term care employees have made it their personal responsibility, both at work and at home, to take the necessary precautions in order to safely care for America’s most vulnerable population and the many members of our Greatest Generation. The COVID-19 vaccine will be a welcome new tool in the fight against COVID-19 in long-term care communities. Based on what’s known about vaccines for other diseases, experts believe that getting a COVID-19 vaccine may help keep individuals from getting seriously ill even if they do get COVID-19. This virus can have serious, lifethreatening complications, and there is no way to know how it will affect each person. What’s more concerning is how people who are experiencing no symptoms could be silent carriers, spreading the disease to friends, family, and others unknowingly. Wearing masks and social distancing help reduce one’s chance of being exposed to the virus or spreading it to others, but these
152 GREATER PITTSBURGH AREA - WINTER - SUMMER 2021
measures are not enough. The COVID-19 vaccine will work to help an individual’s immune system be ready to fight the virus if the person is exposed. For example, both the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines work similarly. Each requires two-doses given approximately 28 days apart. Both vaccines appear to be incredibly safe and effective – with a 95% efficacy after taking the 2nd dose. These COVID-19 mRNA vaccines give instructions for a person’s cells to make a harmless piece of what is called the “spike protein.” The spike protein is found on the surface of the virus that causes COVID-19. Keep in mind, these mRNA vaccines will not give someone COVID-19 since they do not use the live virus that causes COVID-19. According to the CDC, getting vaccinated yourself may also protect people around you. For more vaccine information, visit https://www.cdc. gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/ index.html. Learn more about the multi-pronged efforts to protect against the virus in long-term care communities at www.SrCare.org/ coronavirus-update.

As a Certified Elder Law Attorney*, I am often asked by my clients how they can protect their savings from a nursing home. They think if they end up in the nursing home, their hardearned assets and even their home could be lost. They’ve heard that perhaps they should give the home or money to their kids and want to know what I think about the strategy. I usually explain that transfers of assets to the kids are risky for a few reasons. First, you’re giving up control of your stuff. Who wants to do that? Second, you may be making a capital gains tax mistake. Finally, you’re subjecting your savings to your kids’ issues like future divorces or lawsuits. I then often explain a device called a Medicaid Asset Protection Trust is often a great solution. From a nursing home planning standpoint, it allows clients to protect assets without some of the risks associated with giving them to their kids. With this type of planning, the creator of the trust (called the Grantor) re-titles some of their assets to the trust. In doing so, the Grantor protects the savings from long term care costs. Consider the situation of
Fred and Wilma. They are retirees who own their primary residence and have some investments. They feel comfortable that their retirement savings will provide well for them. There will likely even be some leftovers to leave as a legacy to their kids. However, they know that nursing homes can cost more than $100,000 per year. They know if one of them gets sick, the other spouse may not be able to enjoy a comfortable retirement. After our discussion, Fred and Wilma decide the Trust is right for their needs. They create the Trust and then re-title their home and some of their savings into the Trust. If you’d like to learn more about how Medicaid Asset Protection Trusts work, check out the info at sechlerlawfirm.com or give us a call at 724-841-1393.

Knowing when and if it’s time for a loved one to move to a personal care home or assisted living is not easy. Ideally most people want to age in place for as long as possible. However, if one’s independence and well-being start to decline and the practicality, safety, and the benefits of aging in place also falter, a change may be needed. Some older adults recognize and may even welcome this need for change. But more often families struggle with the timing of a move, which is compounded with feelings of guilt and uncertainty, and sometimes sheer resistance from their loved one about moving. So how do you know when it’s time for a change? Below are some key indicators that can help you determine if a move may be necessary: • Caregiving is significantly interfering with work, relationships and other responsibilities. • Healthcare professionals recommend a change. • The loved one asks for a change. • Despite your best efforts, things worsen (increased falls, illness and/or hospitalizations). • The loved one is in danger of harming themselves or others, especially those with dementia. • The caregiver’s physical and mental health and wellness are worsening. • The caregiver is depleted, becoming angry, neglectful, resentful, frustrated. • The caregiver’s coping methods
become destructive (i.e. substance abuse). Furthermore, you’re not alone in determining whether your loved one needs care. A medical evaluation and written order from their physician is required. Plus the residence will assess your loved to determine the right level of care. Other Considerations Aging in place can have its limitations. In some cases, it can lead to caregiver burnout and can be overwhelming and unsafe if not well planned. Isolation, boredom and inactivity can also be problematic, especially if the person has stopped driving, has limited mobility and/or their health is on the decline. Making this choice is not just about the need for care. Personal Care not only provides hands-on care and peace of mind, but it can also foster an improved and more active lifestyle. Socialization and peer activity strengthen the mind, body and soul with a wide range of activities, clubs, events and amenities. Appreciating the value of proactively moving to personal care or assisted living can be comforting and wellpaced. It lends itself to a more positive transition, rather than a power struggle compounded by critical need and hurried placement.
