I’m a pushover for a (truly) sensational sale, especially when it’s for a  product I use every single day – in fact more than once a day –  like the  super duper Smileactives® teeth whitening kit. 

As a devoted fan of the exceptional Smileactives formulas,  I needn’t wait for a Black Friday or Cyber Monday deal. I can get one right now! So can you! And this is A REALLY BIG DEAL, the brand’s biggest of the year, as a matter of fact.  

So, What’s The Big Deal? 

Get over $100 off (that’s 74 % off)  the introductory  Perfect White® System, a powerful package of two Pro Whitening Gels + the Vibrite® BLUE toothbrush with LED technology.  

And think what a marvelous gift this would make – not just for you, but for the special people at the top of your holiday list who love to smile. That’s another big deal.

Smileactives is offering this sensational sale for a limited time – no kidding – so step on it! Right now!

Thanks to sophisticated 21st century beauty technologies, Pro Whitening Gel would even get Scrooge  to smile when he sees how bright and white it makes his teeth. And how cool that it works with regular fluoride and non-fluoride toothpaste, so it doesn’t add a bit of time to  brushing routines. It just produces exceptional results!

Fact is, most of us have naturally yellow teeth from dentin, a pale yellow substance between a tooth’s transparent enamel outside and pulp inside, Enamel can also thin even more over the decades, and discolor from repeated exposure to pigments in coffee, tea, red wine, balsamic vinegar, and dark-colored fruits and sodas. And, even if someone hasn’t smoked in years, the plethora of puffs they took back in the day also affected their enamel! (1) 

When whitening strips were all the rage about 20 years ago, they often sensitized teeth and gums. Using strips also became a vicious cycle. They’d whiten teeth, but increase their sensitivity, so people stop using them. No surprise, their teeth would become yellow again! 

Reaches All The Grooves and Crannies – With NO Sensitivity*  

The active ingredient in Smileactives Pro Whitening Gel is the same substance dentists use to whiten teeth. And, its proprietary Polyclean® technology creates an extremely fine foam that whitens the whole tooth – back, front and top – getting into all grooves and crannies without a scintilla of sensitivity.*

Smileactives also lifts and removes stains on dental work including crowns, veneers, and dentures.  

To support its claims, Smileactives conducted a clinical study of 52 users, whose teeth became 5 shades whiter on average in just 7 days. After 14 days, teeth became up to 8 shades whiter. Pretty impressive results!**

Besides its quality formula and advanced technology, Smileactives was developed by the same biochemist who invented the one-hour, light-activated tooth-whitening process. So you can be sure it’s the real deal when it comes to teeth whitening. 

Using Pro Whitening Gel with the new Vibrite BLUE toothbrush will enhance  cleaning and whitening even more. Operating at 40,000 vibrations per minute, it features a 30-second pacer and timer and five oral care modes: Clean for everyday brushing; Whiten with rapid pulsing to help reduce surface stains; Polish with stronger and longer pulses; Gum Care with gentle pulsation to help stimulate gums, and Sensitive with slower vibration. 

An Offer You Can’t Brush Over

$100 off (that’s 74% off) the introductory Perfect White System, a powerful package of two Pro Whitening Gels + the Vibrite® BLUE toothbrush with LED technology + a Mystery Gift Package 

Whiter, brighter teeth in just seven days – with routine brushing

SMILEACTIVES MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE: Try Smileactives® for 60 days. If you’re not completely satisfied, simply return the product, even empty, and get a full refund. (less s&h)

*In a company-sponsored Clinical Study, most people experienced little to no sensitivity. Individual experiences will vary. 

**Average improvement of 3 shades whiter in 7 days

**Average improvement of 4 shades whiter in 14 days

The Beauty Formula That Never Lets My Skin Down

The Body Firm, LLC compensated FabOverFifty with an advertising sponsorship to write this article. Regardless, I only recommend products or services that I trust will benefit my FOFriends.—Geri Brin

Choosing quality skin care products back in the day was a pretty simple exercise. A knowledgeable salesperson at the beauty department of one of the prestigious New York department stores would show me the formulas that would benefit my skin issues. I could feel their texture and consistency. I trusted I was getting quality stuff! 

When the team at Crépe Erase asked me – eight years ago –  to try its products for the aging skin on my body, I was skeptical. I couldn’t sample them in a real store because they were sold only online. I wouldn’t be able to feel whether they were too thick, thin or greasy, and easily absorbed into my skin. And what if I didn’t like the scent?  

Even though beautiful actress Jane Seymour raved about Crépe Erase online, I wasn’t convinced that it would help the sagging, crepey skin on MY arms, legs and chest-neck area, I decided to move ahead – albeit wary. 

Still In Love After All These Years!

Well, here I am – eight years older – and I’ve never stopped using Crépe Erase and raving to other women about what makes it exceptional. Millions of them clearly agree, because it’s become the #1 anti-aging body treatment system for dry, crepey skin!​ Check out the reviews yourself! 

Crépe Erase beauty scientists are continually refining the formulas with highly effective ingredients that benefit our skin – from stimulating collagen and strengthening its foundation – to keeping it wonderfully hydrated and healthy. 

While naturally occurring proteins, collagen and elastin, literally support our skin so it stays tight and firm when we’re younger, they simply diminish as we age. That’s when our skin starts to thin and sag. The sooner we feed it the essential proteins, vitamins and other nutrients as we age, the better it will look for lots longer. 

State-of-the-art Crépe Erase® treatment creams are packed with a proprietary blend of just such ingredients, called TruFirm® Complex. They can penetrate our skin’s top protective layer and help bring back a refreshed, more youthful-looking appearance. 

This means the skin all over our bodies, not just on our faces. Think necks, knees, legs, underarms, and decolletage.

Proving That Beauty Really IS Skin Deep 

And now these exceptional treatments will work even harder when you use them with the new Skin Revitalizing Tool. Delivering heat, vibration and light therapy, this nifty rechargeable device enhances the penetration of Crépe Erase ingredients that make skin radiant, vibrant and healthy looking. 

After showering, massage the Crépe Erase Body Repair Treatment cream into your neck,chest, arms and legs, then activate the Skin Revitalizing Tool with the touch of a button. Comfortably sitting in the palm of your hand, it will glide over your body while its heavenly heat and soothing vibration stimulate the skin and open pores.

Your open pores will drink in the Crépe Erase formula, which includes a trio of plant extracts to help fortify the skin’s netting. Droopy skin appears visibly tighter and firmer, and more youthful-looking. 

Serious Hydration For Sensational Skin 

Crépe Erase® also contains 12 Super Hydrators, including coconut oil, cocoa butter, olive oil, squalane, grapeseed oil, Vitamin E and a trio of glycerides. This powerful combination delivers up to 72 hours of intense hydration to dry, crepey skin. 

Next, apply the Crépe Erase Neck Repair Treatment, a highly concentrated and exclusive formula with encapsulated retinol and sodium hyaluronate. These potent ingredients will reduce the look of fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin color, hydration and elasticity, and soften rough patches on your delicate neck skin. Rest assured, the Skin Revitalizing Tool will work its magic on your neck too! 


Red, blue and green light therapies complete the range of valuable beauty treatments performed by the innovative device:  

Red light can deliver youth-enhancing benefits

Green light can help rejuvenate the skin

Blue light can help promote even skin

You’ll also want to use the tool, day and night, with the Crepe Erase Facial Repair Treatment and Plump & Firm Facial Treatment. Both are blended with the same powerful TruFirm Complex ingredients, in the same concentration, as the body formulas.  

Crépe Erase® is so confident that you’ll love its products, it invites you to use them for 60 days, and, if you’re not satisfied, return the tubes–EVEN EMPTY–for a full refund, less s&h!

This offer should prove that these are quality beauty products. Plus, the line is incredibly reasonable in the first place!

There’s lots more: Order the Body & Face Kit, and Neck Repair Treatment + the Skin Revitalizing Tool will be your free gifts.

The Beauty Formula That Really Gets Under Your Skin

The Body Firm, LLC compensated FabOverFifty with an advertising sponsorship to write this article. Regardless, I only recommend products or services that I trust will benefit my FOFriends.—Geri Brin

Once upon a time, we wore skimpy lightweight clothes in summer and covered up completely with long sleeves, tights and high necks when the temperatures dipped. Today, we’re baring more skin all year round. Indoor heating can be oppressive. Besides, our skin breathes better when it isn’t suffocating under layers of wool. So does our mind!

Although we aren’t wearing bikinis to work in cold weather, we still want our public-facing arms, legs, and necks to be soft, supple, firm and radiant. Same goes for the areas we cover!

It’s vital “to feel confident in your own skin,” says an idiom passed down through the ages, but crepey, dull and lax skin won’t do much to bolster your self-assurance. Put Crépe Erase by The Body Firm to work from head to toe, and you’ll emanate confidence from every pore. 

I’ve been using Crépe Erase since it debuted over nine years ago. So have millions of other women, which is a mighty endorsement for its performance. No surprise then that’s it’s now the #1 brand for treating dry, crepey skin on the body.

More on this powerhouse skin care collection in a moment.

While naturally occurring proteins, collagen and elastin literally support our skin so it stays tight and firm when we’re younger, they simply diminish as we age. And our skin starts to thin and sag. The sooner we feed it the essential proteins, vitamins and other nutrients as we age, the better it will look for lots longer.

State-of-the-art Crépe Erase® is packed with a proprietary blend of apple, dill and sage, called TruFirm® Complex. It can penetrate our skin’s top protective layer and help bring back a refreshed, more youthful-looking appearance. This means the skin all over our bodies, not just on our faces. Think necks, knees, legs, underarms, and decolletage.

And now these exceptional treatments will work even harder when you use them with the new Skin Revitalizing Tool. Delivering heat, vibration and light therapy, this nifty rechargeable device enhances the absorption of Crépe Erase ingredients that make skin radiant, vibrant and healthy looking.

What Your Teeth Have in Common With Your Favorite White Shirt

Smileactives® compensated FabOverFifty with an advertising sponsorship for this article.Regardless, I only recommend products or services that I believe will benefit my FOFriends.—Geri Brin

You’ve conscientiously laundered and ironed your favorite white shirt for years. But no matter how much TLC you gave it, the shirt now has a yellow cast from perspiration and body oils that built up in the fabric fibers over time.  Now think about your 42-year-old adult teeth. You’ve brushed them faithfully and visited the dentist regularly. So why are THEY yellow? 

Fact is, most of us have naturally yellow teeth from a substance called dentin that’s sandwiched between a tooth’s enamel outside and pulp inside. A mineral/ organic compound/water mixture, dentin is usually pale yellow and shows through the translucent enamel layer on top of it. If good ole genetics gave you especially thin or see-through enamel, your teeth will look even yellower.

The yellow story doesn’t stop there. Enamel can also thin even more over all those decades, and discolor from repeated exposure to pigments in coffee, tea, red wine, balsamic vinegar, and dark-colored fruits and sodas. And, even if you haven’t smoked in years, the plethora of puffs you took back in the day also made their marks on your enamel! 

When whitening strips were all the rage about 20 years ago, my teeth and gums  rebelled and became sensitized. Using strips also became a vicious cycle. They’d whiten my teeth, but increase their sensitivity, so I’d stop using them. No surprise, my teeth would become yellow again! 

Happily, sophisticated 21st century beauty technologies bring us Smileactives, a super duper Pro Whitening Gel that lets us easily and safely take our teeth back to whiter, brighter days – at home. I use it every day with my regular toothpaste (works with fluoride and non-fluoride brands), so it doesn’t add a bit of time to my brushing routine. It just produces exceptional results!

Use Pro Whitening Gel with Smileactives Vibrite® BLUE, a nifty new rechargeable toothbrush combining sonic vibration technology with blue LED light. More on this terrific tool in a moment. 

Reaches All The Grooves and Crannies – With NO Sensitivity  

The active ingredient in Smileactives Pro Whitening Gel is the same substance dentists use to whiten teeth.

The Nifty New Tool That Boosts Your Skin Care Regimen to a Whole New Level

The Body Firm, LLC compensated FabOverFifty with an advertising sponsorship to write this article. Regardless, I only recommend products or services that I believe will benefit my FOFriends.—Geri Brin

It’s a treat to pamper my hands and feet with manis and pedis throughout the year, but facials take pampering to a whole new level. What a luxury for my skin to be nourished with rejuvenating creams and serums, and soothingly massaged and heated so it gets the maximum benefit from them. 

Alas, the price of facials stops me from indulging in these delightful spa staples. Besides, a single facial here and there may feel great and reinvigorate my skin for a day or two, but won’t do a thing for it in the long term.

Enter the Skin Revitalizing Tool from Body Firm®, a nifty rechargeable device that transforms me into an esthetician at home. Delivering heat, vibration and light therapy, it helps my skin absorb the exceptional nutrients in Crepe Erase treatment creams that make it radiant, vibrant and healthy looking. 

I’m not talking only about the skin on my FACE, but up and down my BODY – my legs, arms, décolleté, shoulders and neck. That’s why I’ve nicknamed it The FAB Tool!

Get the exceptional Skin Revitalizing Tool – a $129 value – as a FREE THANK YOU GIFT when you order the Crepe Erase Body & Face Kit (and that’s 20% off!)

Let There Be Light + Heat + Vibration

After applying Crepe Erase cream, and massaging it into my skin with my fingertips, I activate the Skin Revitalizing Tool with the touch of a button. Comfortably fitting in the palm of my hand, it glides over my body while stimulating my skin and opening pores with its heavenly heat and soothing vibration. 

The open pores drink in the Crepe Erase proprietary blend of ingredients – called TruFirm® Complex – which includes a trio of plant extracts to help fortify the skin’s netting. Droopy skin appears visibly tighter and firmer, and more youthful-looking. 

Crépe Erase® also contains 12 Super Hydrators, including coconut oil, cocoa butter, olive oil, squalane, grapeseed oil, Vitamin E and a trio of glycerides. This powerful combination delivers up to 72 hours of intense hydration to dry, crepey skin. 

Red, blue and green light therapies complete the range of valuable beauty treatments performed by The FAB Skin Revitalizing Tool. Each wavelength enters the skin at a different depth, stimulating collagen protein production and boosting the skin’s natural healing ability. Moving between the three light modes is a cinch. 

Red light works on the outer layer of skin to help firm, smooth and fill it out. This can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as help improve circulation and reduce inflammation. 

Blue light targets the oil-producing sebaceous glands, which help prevent our skin from drying out. This wavelength light helps to regulate overactive glands, which can cause oily skin and acne breakouts. 

Green light targets a lower level of the dermis and can help reduce inflammation and treat hyperpigmentation so skin tone becomes brighter and more even. It can also help decrease the appearance of under-eye circles, sunspots, and dilated skin capillaries.

Professional light therapy, like facials, is pricey. But not when you can call on the Skin Revitalizing Tool to do it all. Anytime you wish!

Three Indisputable Rules To Sound Skincare 

Using quality skin care products such as Crepe Erase, and applying them consistently, are two of the most important ways to help keep your skin looking even, glowing and refreshed.

I’ve been a Crepe Erase super fan for about seven years, and get compliments on my skin all the time!

Introducing the Skin Revitalizing Tool into my routine simply makes the great things I’m doing remarkable! 

Start using the tool with this terrific Crepe Erase trio, before and after you shower, to see and feel an immediate difference, from your neck to your tippy toes. Apply the enriching formulas every time you shower, and the transformation will truly be uplifting, to you and your skin! 

Step 1 Crepe Erase Body Refining Exfoliant*

After getting wet – not drenched – in the shower, I apply the silky formula with gentle exfoliators all over my body. Paying special attention to crepey and dry areas, I massage the product into my skin in soft, circular motions to help dissolve dead and rough surface skin cells. Following a warm water rinse, I pat my body dry. BTW, avoid long, hot showers that further dry your skin. This process takes my skin from dull to radiant and smooth and is designed to prepare my body for step 2. 

*You won’t need to use the tool during this step. 

Step 2 Crepe Erase Body Repair Treatment

When my body is dry, I massage this cream into the crepey skin around my neck, chest, arms and legs, using upward, circular motions, then use The Skin Revitalizing Tool. The lightly whipped formula absorbs quickly and isn’t one bit greasy. Two simple steps to help restore firmer, healthier-looking skin all over my body. P.S. If you shower early in the day, you can re-apply Body Repair Treatment again before going to bed.

Step 3 Crépe Erase Neck Repair Treatment

I sense luxury the moment my fingers touch this highly concentrated and exclusive blend of plant extracts and dual patented peptides. The formula includes the potent ingredients, encapsulated retinol and sodium hyaluronate, to reduce the look of fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin color, hydration and elasticity, and soften rough patches. The FAB Skin Revitalizing Tool will be gentle, but effective, on your delicate neck skin. 

Customers were so gratified to see Crepe Erase transforming the skin on their bodies, the brand’s beauty chemists knew it was time to give women’s faces a gift – and lift – too.  Blended with the same powerful TruFirm Complex ingredients, in the same concentration, the Crepe Erase facial collection is simply stupendous. 

I dutifully massage the luxurious and rejuvenating Facial Refining Exfoliant twice a day over my whole face, down to my neck. It gently removes rough, dead skin cells to give me softer, smoother, firmer, and brighter skin. Paraben free, too!

Facial Repair Treatment – a deluxe, ultra-hydrating formula with a blend of moisturizing oils – plumps, smoothes, firms, and diminishes the look of fine lines and wrinkles.

Before going to bed, I apply a thin layer of deeply hydrating Plump & Firm Facial Treatment to visibly plumps and smooths my skin as I sleep. Skin penetration levels rise at night, so skin care products work more efficiently. The skin also produces less sebum at night, and moisturizing helps keep it hydrated. 

Use The Skin Revitalizing Tool with Crepe Erase treatments-day and night.

It’s Spring. A Time of Renewal. For Your Skin, Too.

The Body Firm, LLC compensated FabOverFifty with an advertising sponsorship to write this article. Regardless, I only recommend products or services that I believe will benefit my FOFriends.—Geri Brin

I’ve been flinging off the blankets and shutting down the heat more frequently these last couple of weeks, as the temperatures climb their way into spring. It’s nice crawling into a cozy warm bed when it’s freezing outside, but warmer weather always opens our minds to new possibilities. 

It also opens up our pores.

So, before the balmy breezes of the season give way to the sultry days of summer, make sure to change more than your bedding. It’s also time to adjust your skin routine. If you don’t, your body’s largest organ could get mighty mad for putting it in harm’s way – aka heat and humidity. Bet you didn’t know that!

Whoa, you say. Doesn’t lots of humidity in the summer air help hydrate the skin, which is exactly what it needs after the winter air – inside and out – robs it of essential moisture? 

Yep, humidity is hydrating, but moisture in the air expands our pores at the same time. Larger pores are more likely to clog up with dirt, oil and other matter that cause breakouts and eczema.  Even a brisk walk can be enough to congest pores and create a greasy feeling. Not a good look!. 

What’s more, cell turnover tapers off over the years, and the dry, dead cells sitting on the skin’s surface at winter’s end give your face a rough, dull appearance.

Spring is the time of year to turn your attention to your skin’s salvation. Think lightweight and gentle formulas that will cleanse pores, swipe away dead cells, and moisturize without choking or weighing down the skin.

My go-to brand is Crépe Erase®. I’m often invited to review skin care products for my popular website. I’ve counted on Crepe Erase for years to keep my skin even, glowing and refreshed.

TruFirm® Complex, a proprietary blend in Crepe Erase Advanced, includes a trio of plant extracts to help fortify our skin’s netting. Droopy skin appears tighter and firmer, and more youthful looking. Crépe Erase® Advanced also contains 9 Super Hydrators, including coconut oil, cocoa butter, olive oil, squalane, grapeseed oil, Vitamin E and a trio of glycerides. This powerful combination delivers up to 72 hours of intense hydration to dry, crepey skin. 

The light and airy moisture-rich formula is fast absorbing and works to visibly soothe and renew the skin. Never a greasy residue!

The five-piece Deluxe Kit also treats your skin above the chin!

Start using this terrific trio before and after you shower, and you’ll see and feel an immediate difference, from your neck to your tippy toes. Apply the enriching formulas every time you shower, and the transformation will truly be uplifting, to you and your skin! 

Step 1 Body Smoothing Pre-Treatment with TruFirm

After getting wet – not drenched – in the shower, I apply the silky formula with gentle exfoliators all over my body. Paying special attention to crepey and dry areas, I massage the product into my skin in soft, circular motions to help dissolve dead and rough surface skin cells. Following a warm water rinse, I pat my body dry. BTW, avoid long, hot showers that further dry your skin. This process takes my skin from dull to radiant and smooth and is designed to prepare my body for step 2.

Step 2 Advanced Body Repair Treatment with TruFirm

When my body is dry, I massage this cream for one minute into the crepey skin around my neck, chest, arms and legs, using upward, circular motions. The lightly whipped formula absorbs quickly and isn’t one bit greasy. Two simple steps to help restore firmer, healthier-looking skin all over my body. P.S. If you shower early in the day, you can re-apply Advanced Body Repair Treatment again before going to bed. 

Step 3 Crépe Erase Ultra-Smoothing Neck Repair with TruFirm 

I sense luxury the moment my fingers touch this highly concentrated and exclusive blend of plant extracts and dual patented peptides.

A New and Safer Approach to End-Of-Life Care

Rushing with electric paddles towards a 55-year-old woman in cardiac arrest, Dr. Ferdinando Mirarchi, a young intern, was stopped by a nurse flashing a piece of paper. “No, don’t shock her. She’s a DNR, she’s a DNR,” the nurse shouted. DNR means Do Not Resuscitate.

“I thought I was a good intern, but I became paralyzed, and didn’t know what to do,” Dr. Mirarchi remembered. 

“A cardiologist who was walking through the ICU and saw the commotion pushed me aside and shocked the woman’s heart,” Dr. Mirarchi said. “She came to and started talking to us. Had the cardiologist not been there, and I was left alone, she would have died.” 

The woman, in fact, had a living will, instead of a “do not resuscitate” order, but the documents confused the staff and Dr. Mirarchi.

Fast forward a few years to a level 1 trauma center in Pittsburgh, where Dr. Mirarchi was a resident in emergency medicine attending to a 60-something unresponsive man.  “The paramedics said he had an AD (advance directive) living will, but I wasn’t going to repeat the mistake I made as an intern, so I resuscitated him,” Dr. Mirarchi related. “I placed him on a ventilator and set up IV catheters.”

Dr. Mirarchi was preparing to transport the patient to the ICU, when a slightly built old woman appeared and announced her husband was an end-stage cancer patient. “She could no longer care for him at home since he was in great pain,” she explained. She needed help and she could tell he was dying.  

“The woman in cardiac arrest when I was an intern wanted to be treated, but this man wanted to die naturally because of his pain from advanced cancer. Everyone involved at the hospitals assumed they were on top of each situation, but the patients couldn’t speak for themselves, and we were wrong. That often happens, which is very troubling,” Dr. Mirarchi added. 

When ‘Medical Strangers’ Make Decisions About Your Life

Dr. Fred Mirarchi

Now an emergency and palliative medicine physician, Dr. Mirarchi categorized his two previous encounters as “medical stranger dangers.” Our doctors are often no longer in the hospital advocating for us, he stressed. Instead, we see “medical strangers.”

“No one is going to know what that patient wants anymore. It’s frightening,” Dr. Mirarchi said.

Living wills and other ADs are written, legal instructions regarding your medical care preferences if you can’t make choices for yourself. They’re supposed to help guide decisions for doctors and caregivers if you’re terminally ill, seriously injured, comatose, in the late stages of dementia, or at the end of life. 

But – and this is a BIG BUT – Dr. Mirarchi revealed that these directives are “often misinterpreted because they approach patients’ medical care preferences from a negative perspective.” They’ll state under what conditions a patient doesn’t want to receive care, which can be understood differently by different health care providers.

As the lead investigator with TRIAD – a patient safety research series that studies the realistic interpretation of advance directives – Dr. Mirarchi learned that a living will can often lead to inappropriate and unsafe medical care on both sides of this care equation.  Sometimes too much care; sometimes too little. If you’ll remember back to the start of this article, that almost happened when he was a resident.

The statistics are staggering:

When medical providers look at ADs, 80% of the time they’ll assume these written directives mean Do Not Resuscitate. It’s almost 90% with nurses and above 90% with paramedics, multiple TRIAD studies repeatedly showed.

“If you’re critically ill, can the clinical staff taking care of you properly assess how your AD relates to your distinct situation?” Dr. Mirarchi asked. Based on his studies, it’s highly unlikely it can. 

Aiming to eliminate the disparity between ADs and the actual treatment patients receive when critically ill or at the end of life, Dr. Mirarchi created MIDEO Health, a video-based advance care planning platform. “I knew I had to approach the solution from a technological perspective,” he added.

Making Sure to Honor Your EndOfLife Wishes

Putting my magnetized Mideo Health ID card on the refrigerator

MIDEO advance care plans on video are easily created in consultation with physicians. The videos are designed to eliminate confusion and prevent misinterpretation of care directives so our wishes concerning critical illness (desiring care) and end-of-life care (wanting a natural death) are honored.

“MIDEO is patient centered. We analyze each person’s current state of health and provide disease specific advance care planning.  By customizing every plan, we ensure that what’s right, safe, and effective for patients is clearly understood by the ‘medical strangers’ viewing the videos. This is a non-traditional approach,” Dr. Mirarchi stressed. Most systems simply want you to prepare documents, and have you become comfortable with death.  MIDEO wants to assure you will avoid being harmed because a medical stranger misinterpreted your documents.

To ensure a seamless process, MIDEO creates a prescription for your care and gives you a script to read when you film your video with its phone app.

The video is one component of the service. You’ll receive three MIDEO ID cards, one with a magnet. The cards contain identifying information, including your date of birth, the name and phone number of your healthcare proxy, and your “code status,” which is how you’d want to be treated.

You keep one card in your wallet with your driver’s license and give one to your healthcare proxy. The card with the magnet is for the side of the refrigerator, where paramedics often are trained to look for advance directives when they can’t communicate directly with the patient.

The MIDEO fulfillment team also coordinates with your primary care physician and hospital’s medical records department to insert your info into their electronic medical records online. And, if you have an attorney who created an estate plan for you, MIDEO will contact him or her.

“We now have patients in 43 states and five countries and are seeing really good results with patients using our system,” Dr. Mirarchi said. “And we’re constantly visiting hospital administrators to increase the MIDEO adoption rates, so it becomes the norm.” We do not charge health care systems to access your info or to use the MIDEO system. 

Dr. Mirarchi stressed that MIDEO isn’t trying to remove your existing directives or medical orders, but to make sure they clearly reflect your current wishes. Paper-based legal documents or medical orders do not adequately perform the job.

The MIDEO Process,, Price,, and Practicality

The MIDEO Package, designed for those with multiple medical problems or aged 60 and above, is $349, which is covered by Medicare.  A year after your information is in the system a $10 annual fee guarantees that your video is secured in MIDEO’s servers 24/7 365 days a year.

The MIDEO Package includes:

  1. A guided process and healthcare evaluation by a trained physician.
  2. Education and counseling according to your unique needs.
  3. A customized MIDEO statement- the prescription for your care – that is recorded and validated for quality, safety, and compliance.
  4. Step-by-step instructions from a live concierge to assist with the MIDEO software before, during and after the consultation.

Once you’re in the MIDEO system, your file is entered into a cycle, and the company decides when to see you again based upon your risk assessment. “We don’t need to see you back if there are no changes in your status, but we still need to periodically update your file,” Dr. Mirarchi explained.   

Dr. Mirarchi advises creating a MIDEO advance care plan on video any time you experience a life-changing event, including marriage; having children; buying life insurance; being diagnosed with an illness, and having a stroke.

Dont let a medical stranger” decide how youll live. A Mideo advance care plan on video ensures youre treated precisely how you wish.
