to listen to music for an extended period.
Stick to name brands like Bose, Sony,
Jabra, JBL, or Beats. They are available all
over and I would suggest you see them,
try them on and shop online for the best
price. Word of warning: don't buy cheap
$5 or $10 models. There is a reason they
are cheap.
A soundbar from Samsung, Vizio,
Sonos, Sony and other brands are priced
from $50 to several hundred and bass
or sub-woofers can be added or are
included. If you are looking for the
true home theater experience (Large
Flat Screen TV, Sound, etc.) a good
soundbar is far superior to the standard
speaker that comes with your TV. For the
ultimate, if you have the right room or
space, a surround sound set-up may be
worthwhile.
Finally, we get to something everyone
needs, but can never have too many:
cables, chargers and connections, which
also make great stocking stuffers and gifts.
I have accumulated a vast array of these,
and I am glad. I leave the connections in
my carrying case for speaking engagements
so I can use my iPad, iPhone or other
device to project my slides with a LCD
projector at my PBI Workshops and
other engagements. I have multiple
cables, charging adaptors, etc., for trips
and even around the house for my cell,
watch, tablet, and other electronics. I can
never before enough and they are always
a welcome gift. I keep some in my travel
bag, so I don't have to run out and buy
more in the airport or hotel. If you are
traveling overseas, a convertor is a must.
Again, stay with name brands to make
sure they will work with your device.
Third party products can cause problems
and damage. And don't forget extras
for your car. That seems to be the time
you need to have your phone charged.
Especially now that a lot of people use the
phone for GPS and directions.
Enjoy the Internet, E-Mail and Social
Media, but " Let's be careful out there! "

UTILIZING DIGITAL TOOLS
IN A WORKPLACE
HEALTH STRATEGY

T

he integration of digital tools in the corporate environment
is moving at a rapid pace and changing the way companies
implement their wellness strategies. Employers and many of
the insurance carriers they work with have inserted technology into their
benefit offerings as a way for individuals not just to monitor their general
physical fitness but also to address concrete wellness needs and improve health
outcomes.
Through the use of these digital tools, employees are empowered to take
greater control over their well-being through the tracking, managing and
analysis of critical health data. Digital health tools also increase the efficiencies
of healthcare by improving access, reducing costs, increasing quality of care
and making medicine more personalized and precise.
Implementing digital health into your wellness strategy will usually include
a variety of tools, including:

*	 Health Information Technology... utilizing a platform or application
to manage the exchange of health information between patients and
medical personnel in a secure, computerized environment.

*	 Mobile Health... allowing medicine and care delivery through mobile
phones, tablets and other wireless technology.

*	 Telehealth... providing the remote exchange of data and care between a
patient and their medical advisor.

*	 Wearables... clothing and accessories that integrate advanced electronic
technologies to assist in providing more personalized health data.

My Benefit Advisor representatives can show how you can incorporate
digital health tools into your company's benefit programs to enhance employee
morale, decrease claims utilization and allow your employees to take better
control of their long-term well-being.
The Montgomery Bar Association offers its members access to My Benefit
Advisor as a solution for employee benefits, including voluntary offerings.
