“Good nutrition is a core element of wellness, and it’s especially important for people to have healthy options at work, where they spend a majority of their time,” said Michael Heinrich, CEO and Founder of Oh My Green.


SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB)

Oh My Green, a leading provider of healthy food and wellness services for corporations, today announced plans to significantly expand its culinary services in five major metropolitan markets across the United States. The company is boosting its corporate catering offerings in the San Francisco Bay Area to meet increasing demand, and adding operations in New York, Los Angeles, Austin, Seattle and Boston.

Oh My Green’s catering program brings a thoughtfully curated selection of healthy menus to the workplace, focusing on foods and beverages that are nutritious, delicious, responsibly sourced and prepared with the utmost care and attention. This service expansion marks the next step in the company’s mission to transform the workplace into an environment that better supports employee health, happiness and well-being. Four key elements set Oh My Green’s service apart from the competition:


  • Premium quality at a competitive price point – Menus prioritize fresh, seasonal, non-GMO and organic foods and are balanced to please a variety of tastes and dietary requirements (including vegetarian, vegan, Halal certified and more). Meat and poultry are always hormone and antibiotic-free, seafood and produce is fresh (never frozen) and whole foods are used instead of trans fats, refined sugars or other types of ultra-processed ingredients.

  • Sustainable – Oh My Green catering is committed to following sustainable business practices that support local sourcing, conserve natural resources and minimize waste. As much as possible, reusable plates and table settings are used, and everything else is recyclable. Food suppliers are chosen based on their sustainability practices and humane handling of livestock. All produce is 100% seasonal, non-GMO and pesticide-free.

  • Smart, data-driven technology – Oh My Green utilizes a range of innovative technologies to facilitate ordering, scheduling and logistics, as well as to ensure excellent service, presentation and food safety. For example, real-time field data keeps tabs on food temperatures and on-site conditions, food is time and temperature stamped prior to and post-delivery, frequent food safety audits are conducted and email alerts ensure that potential issues are addressed instantly. Oh My Green’s proprietary technology platform also gathers both qualitative and quantitative feedback on the weekly menus, with the information used to continually refine offerings and craft a unique experience that meets every customer’s wants and needs.

  • Restaurant-caliber experience – Oh My Green’s catering service raises the bar on the office lunch with premium menus specially curated by local Michelin Star rated chefs, restaurant quality food and beverage presentation and clear signage that provides details on nutritional content, potential allergens and dietary considerations.

Poor eating habits and associated health epidemics — including heart disease, diabetes, hypertension, obesity and others — are costing businesses more than $225 billion annually according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Conversely, workplace nutrition programs improve employee well-being and productivity, help reduce absenteeism and much more.

“Good nutrition is a core element of wellness, and it’s especially important for people to have healthy options at work, where they spend a majority of their time,” said Michael Heinrich, CEO and Founder of Oh My Green. “Now, in addition to our snack and micro-kitchen services, companies in our catering markets can partner with Oh My Green for a premium experience that prioritizes fresh ingredients, local sources and a nutritious and delicious range of options. This is one more way that employers can cultivate a culture of wellness that helps their employees lead more healthy, inspired and blissful lives.”

Groundbreaking National Study on PrEP Use to Prevent HIV Acquisition Among Transgender MSM

Leave a comment


“Our study suggests that bio-behavioral HIV prevention methods, such as PrEP, should be made available to transgender MSM. Findings support the full inclusion of transgender MSM in biomedical HIV prevention services and research,” notes study co-author Dr. Sari Reisner.


BOSTON (PRWEB)

A groundbreaking study from The Fenway Institute published in the most recent issue of Journal of the international AIDS Society is the first to investigate the use of pre‐exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and the risk behaviors that indicate its use to prevent HIV among transgender MSM (men who have sex with men) nationally. Although HIV infection in the U.S. remains a serious public health concern—particularly among MSM and transgender people—HIV-related research in the transgender community has largely focused on transgender women (those assigned a male sex at birth who have a trans-feminine gender identity). The study’s findings indicate that PrEP and other bio-behavioral research on HIV prevention efforts should include transgender MSM, who are currently excluded from PrEP trials. Additionally, further guidance is required from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to inform PrEP continuum and care delivery.

Several studies have shown that transgender women are disproportionately affected by HIV infection relative to their cisgender peers. However, researchers have only recently started to evaluate HIV risk among trans-masculine people who have sex with cisgender men or share needles for hormone or recreational drug use. “Transgender MSM have been invisible in both transgender HIV prevention efforts and in cis MSM prevention delivery;” notes study co-author Dr. Sari Reisner, Director of Transgender Health Research at The Fenway Institute and Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at Harvard Medical School. “Our study suggests that bio-behavioral HIV prevention methods, such as PrEP, should be made available to transgender MSM. Findings support the full inclusion of transgender MSM in biomedical HIV prevention services and research.”

The study, titled “High risk and low uptake of pre‐exposure prophylaxis to prevent HIV acquisition in a national online sample of transgender men who have sex with men in the United States,” was conducted online from November 2017 to December 2017. This national study included 857 transgender MSM between the ages of 18 and 60 (65.3% were under 30). Participants were surveyed to determine their HIV risk, PrEP use, and their bio-behavioral and psychosocial factors (depression, hazardous alcohol and drug use, dating/relationship status, and more). Participants must have self‐reported receptive anal sex or frontal/vaginal sex with a cis male sex partner in the past six months. The racially mixed group was 69.7% white, 25.5% mixed or other racial identity, and 4.8% black. Additionally, 22.1% of all participants reported Latinx heritage. All participants had been assigned female sex at birth and currently identify on the transmasculine spectrum (71.6% as male/transgender man, 28.4% as non-binary, and 32.6% as gay).

The study found that 84% of participants recognized that PrEP use was a way to prevent HIV acquisition. Approximately 55% reported higher risk factors which indicated a greater need for PrEP use. These included where they met their sex partners, not having sex exclusively with cis men, greater number of partners, and high alcohol and drug use. However, only one-third of those in the study had ever taken PrEP.

There could be a number of factors influencing lower PrEP use including a lack of health insurance, poor access to HIV testing, or delays in using prevention methods. Additionally, transgender MSM face the dual stigmas of both gender and sexual minority statuses (with higher levels of stigma for non-binary individuals). As such, they may have unique vulnerabilities that differ from cis MSM. Significant increases in HIV risk were found for those who identified as gay (vs. not), those with mental health and substance abuse issues, those in polyamorous relationships, and those stigmatized by their cis male sex partners.

Since the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the first oral drug for PrEP use in 2012, it has proven to be a safe and effective method of HIV prevention. While the CDC has PrEP indication guidelines for several populations in the HIV epidemic, transgender MSM is not one of them. Therefore, it is likely that this vulnerable group is being overlooked by medical providers due to the gap in CDC guidelines and research. This study included a large national sample size of transgender MSM—an at‐risk population about which little is known. Findings clearly show that transgender MSM will not only benefit from access to PrEP but also that HIV prevention research should include this population in future research. The study also demonstrates a need for greater education and public health interventions around the risk factors and vulnerabilities specific to this group.

Leave a comment


The Institute for Mental Health Research (IMHR), a statewide non-profit dedicated to funding innovative mental health research, has appointed Mitzi Krockover, M.D. as its newest Board Chair.


PHOENIX (PRWEB)

The Institute for Mental Health Research (IMHR), a statewide non-profit dedicated to funding innovative mental health research, has appointed Mitzi Krockover, M.D. as its newest Board Chair.

Dr. Krockover has spent decades developing, integrating, and supporting health programs and initiatives, implementing women’s health services in various settings, and providing clinical care to women. Previously the Director of the Health Futures Council at ASU, Krockover also worked as a Senior Partner of SSB Solutions, Vice President of e-Health and Women’s Health for Humana Inc., and was the founding Medical Director of the Iris Cantor-UCLA Women’s Health Center.

“There are many organizations that focus on increasing awareness and education and recourses, but not very many that are focused on finding new ways of addressing mental health, whether it be in the laboratory or community programs,” Krockover says. “The research is needed, and IMHR has taken that lane to further mental health research, and those that work in the field, and that’s the real value of the organization.”

Krockover replaces Keith Crnic as IMHR Board Chair. Dr. Crnic will continue his work with IMHR as CEO.

“IMHR is incredibly fortunate to have Dr. Krockover move into our leadership position” says Crnic. “She brings an innovative and entrepreneurial perspective that combines with an unwavering commitment to community and public health that will certainly help IMHR thrive and expand its ability to support important new research initiatives in mental health.”

In 1997, Krockover was named “Woman of the Year” by the Los Angeles County Commission on Women, and in 1999, she was awarded the International Emerging Leader in Health Care Award sponsored by Korn Ferry International and the Health Forum. She holds a BA in Arts and Sciences from Washington University and an MD from the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio. She completed her residency in internal medicine at Northeastern University in 1990.

About The Institute for Mental Health Research

Founded in 2001, IMHR is the only statewide, non-profit organization of its kind in the United States. Over the past ten years, in partnership with Arizona researchers and direct care providers, to support broad-based, innovative mental health research across the lifespan, IMHR has attracted and invested a total of more than 17 million in research dollars in Arizona.

Scientists are studying a broad range of diseases and conditions such as bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, depression, PTSD, resilience, Alzheimer’s, ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, and perimenopause. Statistics show that some 57 million Americans are struggling with mental illness, with millions more being affected as friends and families care for their loved ones.

Donations to IMHR directly fund the research that will ultimately discover and produce groundbreaking treatments and cures for these devastating illnesses.

NEW YORK (PRWEB)

Although, the prevalence of the top six neurological disorders like epilepsy, Alzheimer’s and dementia, Parkinson disease, Multiple Sclerosis, ALS and stroke is on the rise, gaps in research and funding for new and improved therapies are severely setting us back as a nation.

“What we can do right now is more research on which therapies will help individuals with Alzheimer’s and their loved ones cope with the disease. What are the things we can do to reduce stress and anxiety for all concerned? To help these individuals reconnect emotionally with their own memories, their selves, and their families?”

Kim Campbell will be the keynote speaker at the American Neurological Association’s 2019 Annual Meeting in St. Louis in October, providing the caregiver perspective to the nation’s leading academic neurologists and neurosurgeons.

Leave a comment


Alexa Riley

Alexa Riley

This is so exciting, this will help me so much in paying for college… bills that are already stacking up!


LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)

The Dominguez Firm, a California-based personal injury law firm, is pleased to announce that Alexa Riley has been chosen as the recipient of its 2019 Collegiate Scholarship Award. She will receive $5,000 towards her college tuition at the University of Florida.

Alexa, who graduated with honors from Harrison School for the Arts in Lakeland, FL, was chosen on the merits of her exceptional academic record, commitment to community service and compelling personal journey.

Founder Juan Dominguez established the Collegiate Scholarship Award in the belief that future generations should be able to pursue higher education without being limited by any financial obstacles. As a result, this scholarship is intended to help outstanding students achieve their goals and in turn, work towards improving society as a whole.

The Dominguez Firm received hundreds of worthy entries, but Alexa’s application resonated with us. Not only did she have a perfect academic record over her four years of high school, but she also found time to actively participate in community theatre and make her school’s springboard diving team. While at Harrison School for the Arts, Alexa was named an AP Scholar with Distinction, Polk County Superintendent Scholar and received High Honors with Distinction every year over the 4 years she was a student there.

Alexa also works part-time as a camp counselor at Central Florida Athletics. She does this to help her mother shoulder the cost of putting two of her children through college at the same time. Despite her very busy schedule, Alexa still finds time to contribute to the local community. She utilizes her musical theater background to coordinate performances with children from a local special needs school. In addition, she enjoys caroling at local nursing homes. Her commitment to volunteer work was recognized with the Community Service Award, given only to those who perform over 1,000 hours of community service a year.

Having suffered turmoil and loss at a very young age, Alexa found the resilience to not only cope but thrive in the years that followed. Excelling academically and becoming an active member of her community were the keys. As she noted, “Only through a loss so grievous could I realize the full extent of my fortitude—the aspect of my personality for which I remain the most grateful.”

Today, Alexa is a freshman at her late father’s alma mater, the University of Florida, where she is majoring in Biology. Eventually, she plans to go to medical school and become a doctor. The Dominguez Firm congratulates Alexa on all of her achievements and wishes her the best of luck as she embarks on her college education. We know her future is bright and are honored to assist her along her journey.

The Dominguez Firm is a nationally recognized personal injury law firm that has been successfully meeting the needs of our clients for over 30 years. For a free and confidential case consultation, please call us at 1-800-818-1818.

DocVilla – Best EMR/EHR with Practice Management, Telemedicine, eRx, eBilling and claim filing capabilities

Leave a comment


DocVilla HIMSS20, Best EMR, Best Telemedicine, Best EHR, Practice Management

DocVilla exhibiting at HIMSS20 Global Health Conference

DocVilla is the best affordable EMR with telemedicine capabilities – exhibiting in HIMSS20


WILMINGTON, Del. (PRWEB)

PS3G Inc. will be exhibiting its Health Technology platform – DocVilla in HIMSS 2020 Global Health Conference. DocVilla is inspired by HIMSS20 theme “Be the Change” and is a HIPAA compliant, secure platform to connect the patients and the doctors through telemedicine and in-person consultations. Through DocVilla, doctors have complete EMR (Electronic Medical Records) and EHR (Electronic Health Records) capabilities along with practice management, telemedicine, e-prescription, e-billing and medical insurance claim filing. On the other hand, the patients can schedule consultations (video or in-person) with the doctors and also select the pharmacy where the prescription needs to be delivered. They can also securely message the doctor using the platform. The patients are charged only after the consultation ends. If the patients submit their insurance information, then they are only charged the copay amount. In order to use Docvilla, the patients need to install the “Docvilla” application whereas the doctors need to install the “Docvilla-Doctor” application. The doctors also have the ability to port over their existing patients’ information from their current EMR into Docvilla. DocVilla has a registered trademark and a pending patent. Moreover, PS3G owns the IP rights of all the technologies used in DocVilla.

“Doctors are currently using multiple platforms for their day to day needs. They are using softwares for scheduling, telemedicine, EMR, e-Billing, e-prescriptions and medical insurance claim filing. For all such disconnected platforms, doctors pay more than $1000/provider per month. They also have to copy paste the patient data from one platform to another which can lead to human errors. In many cases, doctors end up using billers who charge almost 10% of the fee received from insurance company. DocVilla addresses all these issues using automation and minimizes the human intervention. The DocVilla patient application has a strong patient base and can help increase the patients’ inflow for any medical practice. DocVilla is connected with health exchanges and can help a doctor in seeing a patient’s past history as well as current medications and diagnosis. The doctors will also be able to see a patient’s immunization records, Labcorp results, allergies etc. DocVilla is connected with smart devices and wearables through which the patients can share their real time EKG, BP and temperature with the doctor. The platform displays the patient charts and SOAP notes while the doctor is doing the diagnosis. For billing purposes, doctors can file for medical insurance claims and can also charge the patient directly. Docvilla is integrated with Surescripts and can send prescriptions to thousands of pharmacies across the nation. And all these services are provided unlimited for only $300/user/month. There is no additional charge based on the volume of the patients or revenue. Such unique proposition has helped DocVilla gain popularity in more than 11 states and cater to thousands of patients and providers who are using the platform. It has also got a significant traction from hospital systems, urgent care facilities and medical practices. It is the only platform which provides a full suite of features required to run any medical practice and is therefore a one-stop shop for all of the providers. We have a number of exhibitions, roadshows, trade-shows and demonstrations coming up in the next few months besides HIMSS 2020 in Orlando. We will also be exhibiting and showcasing our capabilities in the School Health conference by American Academy of Pediatrics (NJAAP) on October 16th at The Palace at Somerset Park, NJ. To check out our platform please visit our website http://www.DocVilla.com or download the app.”, said Ankit Goyal, CEO, PS3G Inc.
