Although a settlement was not the end goal, this is a momentous victory for emergency medicine. AAEM has confirmed that Envision will not seek to enforce any restrictive covenants and will maintain tail coverage insurance for physicians whose contracts included it.
AAEM advocates for a healthcare model that prioritizes physician autonomy and patient-centered care over corporate profits. This is achieved through stronger legislative measures that protect physician decision-making, promote physician-led organizations, enhance oversight and accountability of corporate practices, invest in ongoing physician education and support, and strengthen patient advocacy initiatives. By implementing these measures, AAEM believes that clinical decisions are based on patient needs rather than financial interests, leading to better patient outcomes, higher physician satisfaction, and a more sustainable and ethical healthcare system.
AAEM President Dr. Robert Frolichstein said “We believe that physicians should make the decisions that affect the clinical care that is delivered to patients, and not business people that are not physicians. On behalf of the Academy, I would like to thank Drs. McNamara, Reiter, Wood, Moreno, and Jones who spent countless hours and invested tremendous energy to make this David vs Goliath moment a reality. Thank you to all that donated money to the AAEM Foundation.”

The American Academy of Emergency Medicine (AAEM) is the specialty society of emergency medicine and the champion of the emergency physician. AAEM was established in 1993 to promote fair and equitable practice environments necessary to allow emergency physicians to deliver the highest quality of patient care. Our guiding values are embodied in our mission and vision statements.
The brief, titled “Project 2025’s threat to LGBTQIA+ equality, safety, and health, racial and gender equity, and sexual and reproductive health,” documents the anti-LGBTQIA+ and racial equity biases of Project 2025’s architects, many of whom served in former President Donald Trump’s first administration. It also explains the ways in which the proposals affecting the Department of Health and Human Services and specific agencies such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention would harm people who are LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, newly arrived to the country, living in poverty, living with disabilities, or otherwise disadvantaged or marginalized.
The policy brief summarizes Project 2025, which is a comprehensive framework for governance during a potential second Trump administration. It includes strategic planning and policy proposals that would do the following:
Charge adults who support LGBTQIA+ and questioning youth in schools and libraries as sex offenders
End federal government and private sector DEI initiatives aimed at increasing racial and gender representation in all levels of the workforce
Remove any mention of sexual orientation, gender identity, and reproductive health from all federal regulations, laws, and grant funding opportunities
End the collection of gender identity data in disease surveillance systems
Remove SOGI nondiscrimination language from federal regulations, and end the enforcement of SOGI nondiscrimination policies
End federal government health equity initiatives aimed at people who are LGBTQIA+ and/or BIPOC
End federal support for gender-affirming health care for adults and portray such care as harmful
Allow faith-based human service providers to discriminate against LGBTQIA+ families
“Many of these proposals would eliminate best practices in public health, such as data collection, that inform interventions to reduce health care disparities that result from inequities based on race, ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation,” Cahill added. “A lot of LGBTQIA+ health research and racial equity work in healthcare is still just getting off the ground. These proposals would undermine efforts to improve health outcomes for women, people of color, and sexual and gender minority people in our society.”
“Project 2025’s threat to LGBTQIA+ equality, safety, and health, racial and gender equity, and sexual and reproductive health,” is available online here.

The fitness franchise has launched a nationwide rollout of Red Light Therapy across its network of nearly 200 fitness locations, aiming to enhance member health through innovative technology that promotes skin health and energy enhancement.
ATLANTA, July 30, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Workout Anytime, the 24/7 fitness franchise with nearly 200 locations nationwide, is proud to announce the nationwide rollout of Red Light Therapy (RLT) across its network. Through this initiative, Workout Anywhere aims to enhance the health and wellness of its members through an innovative technology that promotes skin health and energy enhancement, as well as overall well-being. According to Greg Maurer, vice president of fitness and education for Workout Anytime, RLT is a safe and non-invasive procedure in which the skin is penetrated by red and infrared light, which interacts with the mitochondria within the cells to increase oxygen levels and dramatically improve energy production. “So what are the specific benefits we know for skin health in red light?” Maurer said. “We definitely know it can help with wrinkles. For example, unlike ultraviolet light, it doesn’t damage the skin, it helps the skin. It can help with wound healing, it can help with acne.” The rollout includes two types of RLT units designed to cater to different member needs. “We have stand-up units for targeted treatments in private rooms and lay-down units that deliver deeper penetration for more extensive benefits,” Maurer said. These sessions typically last between 12 to 20 minutes, and should be scheduled at least three times a week for optimal results. The introduction of RLT aligns with Workout Anytime’s commitment to offering comprehensive wellness amenities. “We’re passionate about creating a life-changing journey for everybody coming into our clubs,” said Maurer. “Red light therapy will be a standard feature in our new clubs, offering members access to cutting-edge technology aimed at enhancing their overall fitness experience.” The rollout will encompass existing clubs and upcoming locations, ensuring that members nationwide can access this innovative wellness solution. “Consumers can visit the Workout Anytime website to check if their local club offers this amenity,” Maurer said. In addition to RLT, Workout Anytime is exploring other wellness innovations to complement its fitness offerings. “We’re also looking into integrating forms of whole-body cold therapy, providing members with diverse options to support their fitness journey,” Maurer said. ABOUT WORKOUT ANYTIME: Atlanta-based Workout Anytime is a 24-hour, seven-day-a-week fitness concept with nearly 200 units across the U.S. Founded by fitness veterans John Quattrocchi and Steve Strickland, the company was formed to provide members with first-class fitness facilities at the lowest cost possible while delivering a profitable and affordable business model to franchisees. Built on the founders’ motto of “think big, keep it simple and do it with integrity,” Workout Anytime is preparing for significant expansion into new territories across the U.S. and Central America by providing opportunities to business-minded entrepreneurs.

Without early detection and treatment, uncorrected vision disorders can impair healthy development, interfere with learning, and even lead to permanent vision loss. However, vision screening and regular eye care can help detect and treat potentially irreversible vision impairment. Visual functioning is a strong predictor of academic performance in school-age children.

After a decade as a trailblazer in the wellness and pleasure spaces, Foria celebrates its achievements and successful evolution
BOULDER, Colo., July 30, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Foria, the all-natural, botanical-forward intimate wellness brand, this year celebrates its 10th anniversary. Founded in 2014, Foria was one of the first brands to kick off the sexual wellness boom, opening up public conversations about pleasure’s crucial role in overall well being. Over the past decade, the brand has expanded into additional categories, including menopause, menstrual wellness and bodycare. After 10 years of impressive growth, the brand remains committed to addressing the unmet needs of people of all ages.
Continued expansion into under-served markets and mainstream retailers, coupled with Foria’s dedication to modern-day sex education have helped the brand stand out in a competitive landscape, even in light of the social media censorship challenges that many businesses in the industry face. As the space continues to evolve (and new challenges emerge) Foria has remained an outspoken advocate for people facing issues of access and education around vital wellness products and services.
Foria will celebrate both the 10-year milestone as well as National Orgasm Day (July 31) by offering up to 40% off its products sitewide from July 27 – July 31. The company will also celebrate its legacy of innovation with new “legalize orgasms” merch, throwback marketing campaigns honoring the history of the brand and more. The goal is to continue to build community and reward its longtime consumers.
A few of the brand’s notable achievements from the past few years include:
The launch of several entirely new products, including Vibrance (daily use products designed to hydrate skin and alleviate discomfort often present during midlife and menopause), Intimacy Massage Oil, Cramps Be Gone (a bundle of products targeting common issues experienced during menstruation) and a suite of entirely CBD-free products.
The launch of the School of Unlearning in the Spring of 2020; this educational campaign featured diverse thought leaders who shared their experiences with sex and sex education, helping their communities unpack and unlearn the shame, heteronormative beliefs and harmful narratives that often surround love, sex, gender and intimacy – a reminder that pleasure and self-expression belong to everyone.
Expansion into 1,300 brick-and-mortar Ulta Beauty stores in 2022, along with the launch of several of Foria’s hero products online at www.ulta.com, including best selling products like Awaken Arousal Oil with CBD, Intimacy Breast Oil, Intimacy Sex Oil with CBD, Relief & Intimacy Melts and others.
The launch of Foria’s App on both the Apple and Android platforms, connecting Foria’s community to exclusive product launches, promotions and more, with plans to further expand the platform’s educational offerings in the coming year.
The launch of Foria’s Practitioner Program, creating a community of accredited women’s health & wellness professionals dedicated to modern day sex education, facilitating connections between these practitioners and their communities and sharing resources that each practitioner can pass along to their patients – including those who may feel shame or stigma around reaching out for help.
The unveiling of new packaging and branding, with more environmentally friendly materials and an eye toward the modern consumer – introducing refillable product packaging, 100% PCW paper and amber glass bottles with no paint, frosting or metallics.
Continued dedication to sustainable practices (read more here), with a focus on recyclable materials, waste reduction, close relationships with vendors to identify better packaging options, utilizing regional hubs to consolidate shipping and working closely with the Environmental Department to review packaging and merchandising for any hazards. In 2020, Foria assessed and shifted all packaging and sourcing in accordance with the guiding principles of BWE.
“It is with so much pride and appreciation that we celebrate Foria’s 10th anniversary and kick off our exciting National Orgasm Day sale. It’s been an honor to lead a brand dedicated to making pleasure and connection more accessible for all and to de-stigmatize the taboos around these vital and fundamental human experiences. Foria normalizes conversations about pleasure and intimacy and we stand for supporting people in their safe explorations as individuals and in relationship with their partners.” says Jon Brandon, Co-Founder and CEO of Foria. “Beyond developing and educating people about our life-changing products, Foria’s in-house experts are committed to furthering our sustainability, education and community initiatives. We look forward to continuing to innovate via new products and fostering healthy communication while continuing to support people throughout their lives.”
Foria is an innovative wellness company that makes life-changing, all-natural, organic formulas for pleasure enhancement, period care and menopause support. Rooted in the belief that pleasure is your nature, Foria sets the standards in the intimate wellness space for clean, innovative and highly effective formulas. With award-winning products, Foria supports intimate needs across every stage of life to bring more pleasure to more people.
Guided by the wisdom of plants, Foria intentionally selects botanicals to solve real needs and deliver meaningful results. Foria’s products are sustainably made from seed to shelf, with a commitment to organic & regeneratively farmed ingredients and low-impact packaging. Every product is made domestically in the USA, with Mother Nature in mind every step of the way.
