Affecting millions of Americans, COPD includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema and makes it difficult to breathe. It can also be very expensive. “Understanding the true total cost associated with available healthcare plans is so important for those with highcost health needs like COPD, as access to care doesn’t help patients unless they can afford it,” says Harold P. Wimmer, National President and CEO of the American Lung Association. When choosing a plan, consider all the factors that affect yearly out-of-pocket costs, including the premium, deductible and co-pay or coinsurance amounts. Also, check each plan’s coverage for doctors, specialists, hospitals and medications. COPD patients may reach the maximum out-of-pocket expenses. Adding the total premiums to that figure should give patients an accurate estimate of annual costs. The deadline for individuals to enroll in a healthcare plan for 2016 is January 31. For guidance on choosing the most cost-effective plan, visit Lung.org. COPD patients and their caregivers can call the Lung Association’s free HelpLine at 1-800-LUNGUSA to speak with a certified enrollment counselor. Before enrolling in a healthcare plan, use free resources available to help you make the most financially sound decision for your circumstances. 19.

List Of 88th Annual Academy Award Nominations Announced Su Local history enthusiasts have a new piece of history they can view in Yankton for a limited time. The traveling exhibit “Living Traditions: Dakota, Nakota, Lakota Art” arrived on the Mount Marty College (MMC) campus Jan. 4. It is currently on display at the Bede Art Gallery, where it will remain until Jan. 29. After that, it will be displayed at the Mother Jerome Schmitt Library from Feb. 1-26, also on the MMC campus. There is no fee to view the exhibit. The “Living Traditions” exhibit was created in 2008 by the museum of the South Dakota State Historical Society as part of a project to start a traveling exhibits program. Other exhibits include “Lewis and Clark in South Dakota,” “South Dakota Communicates” and “Life Underground: Hard Rock Mining in the Black Hills.” “We had a list of potential exhibit ideas and one of the ideas dealt with Native American culture in a different way,” said Museum Curator of Exhibits Kate Vandel. “We were originally looking at a way to feature our Native American collections, and the associate curator and designer put the exhibit in the direction it went in.” Since its creation, “Living Traditions” has visited more than 50 venues and has been viewed by 210,000 people. It is popular enough to have two different sets of the exhibit showcased around the state. “We’re very pleased to have it on display in Yankton, particularly on the MMC campus,” Vandel said. “We hope a lot of students go see it.” The exhibit is organized by the different types of art the Dakota, Nakota and Lakota people have created over the years.
