The report for October came in lower-than-expected down from 8.2% in September. The so-called core CPI—which excludes volatile energy and food prices—also eased slightly to 6.3% on the year. Stock prices surged, and bond yields dropped on the news as traders welcomed signs of ebbing price pressures. Investors are hoping that easing inflation means the Fed might not have to raise interest rates as high as previously feared. The inflation report likely leaves the central bank on course to raise rates by a half-point next month but raises questions over how much higher it will lift them next year. October Inflation Report Shows Consumer Prices Rose 7.7% From Year Earlier (https://www.wsj.com/articles/us-inflation-october-2022-consumer-price-index-11668050497?st=04bjlb70z7nsdrz&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink) by Gwynn Guilford and Nick Timiraos ** Your Life ------------------------------------------------------------ While advancements in technology have really propelled us forward in its use in our daily lives, the pandemic has been an added boost to technology, specifically through the use of telehealth. Telehealth is the use of digital information and communication technologies to access health care services remotely and manage your health care. The goals of telehealth, sometimes called e-health or m-health (mobile health), include the following: * Make health care easier to get for people who live in communities that are remote or rural. * Keep you and others safe if you have an infectious disease such as COVID-19. * Offer primary care for many conditions. * Make services more easily offered or handy for people who have limited ability to move, time, or transportation. * Offer access to medical specialists. * Improve communication and coordination of care among healthcare team members and the person getting care. * Offer advice for self-management of health care. Telehealth services include virtual visits, the use of phone-based or web-based services for medical care or advice, remote monitoring, providers talking to providers (virtual consultation), patient portals, personal health apps, and personal health records that you control and maintain. There are potential downsides which include people that do not have access to technology, risk of gaps in care, overuse of medical care, inappropriate drug use, unnecessary care, costs, insurance reimbursement varies, etc. In addition, not being able to do a physical exam can affect a diagnosis.
