How many times have you run into a deal or situation that seems too good to be true? Do you ignore it or do you investigate further to see if it really is true?
Often when people hear about the Healthy Life Free RxCut® healthcare discount program, the very first reaction is, “What’s the catch?” So let us take a moment to explain why the Free RxCut® Plus healthcare discount program is really too good to ignore.
Skepticism is often present when it comes to anything FREE. Fortunately, the Healthy Life RxCut®Plus healthcare discount program operates on a transparent platform that addresses the response of ‘It’s too good to be true’.
By leveraging the enormous number of people who need help paying their medical expenses, we’re able to negotiate deep discounts with service providers. We collect a flat rate administrative fee for each transaction to cover expenses of the program and commissions paid to our distribution network, only when we save our card users money! We created a model that is truly a win/win. The card user ultimately wins as they are guaranteed the absolute lowest price at the Pharmacy as either a result of the card user’s co-pay, the retail price at the pharmacy or the RxCut price. Consumers pay whichever price is the lowest. This is the only card that will equalize a transaction at the pharmacy counter. Don’t be fooled by the other card programs.
It’s just that simple. The “middle man” or Pharmacy Benefit Manager (PBM) is removed from the equation allowing our deep discounts to be passed along to the card user when at the pharmacy counter.
RxCut® Plus, the Equalizer in healthcare, is beneficial to all; the insured with Generic co pays of $10.00 or higher, uninsured, underinsured, those with high deductibles and those who fall in the Medicare donut hole.
The RxCut® Equalizer card guarantees that card users are always receiving the absolute lowest price possible on their generic prescriptions, whether it’s their insurance copayment, the pharmacy retail price, or the RxCut® Price. The RxCut® price on 21 of the 25 most frequently processed generic drugs, for card users, has been less than an insurance co-pay of $10 or more.
Today, more than 210 million Americans receive drug benefits from their employers and pay a co-pay for a generic drug that is often higher than the RxCut® price. For example, RxCut® Plus recently saved a card user $7.80 on a prescription for 20 tablets of Ibuprofen Tab 600MG. The card user asked his pharmacist what the RxCut® price was and instead of paying the flat rate $15 generic insurance co pay, the card user paid the RxCut® price of $7.20.
RxCut® Plus can help consumers save on their prescriptions, whether they have insurance or not. That is the bottom line, too good to ignore.
There is absolutely no cost to users, the program never collects any personal information all cards are active. The RxCut® Plus card is accepted at over 54,000 pharmacies across the US and Puerto Rico.

Liver Panel Tests

What is being tested?
A liver panel is a group of tests that are performed together to detect, evaluate, and monitor liver disease or damage. The liver is one of the largest organs in the body and is located in the upper right-hand part of the abdomen and behind the lower ribs. The liver metabolizes and detoxifies drugs and substances that are harmful to the body. It produces blood clotting factors, proteins, and enzymes, helps maintain hormone balances, and stores vitamins and minerals. Bile, a fluid produced by the liver, is transported through ducts directly to the small intestine to help digest fats or to the gallbladder to be stored and concentrated for later use.
A variety of diseases and infections can cause acute or chronic damage to the liver, causing inflammation, scarring, bile duct obstructions, clotting abnormalities, and liver dysfunction. Alcohol, drugs, some herbal supplements, and toxins can also pose a threat. A significant amount of liver damage may be present before symptoms such as jaundice, dark urine, light-colored stools, pruritus, nausea, fatigue, diarrhea, and unexplained weight loss or gain emerge. Early detection is essential in order to minimize damage and preserve liver function.
The liver panel measures enzymes, proteins, and substances that are produced or excreted by the liver and are affected by liver injury. Some are released by damaged liver cells and some reflect a decrease in the liver's ability to perform one or more of its functions. When performed together, these tests give the doctor a snapshot of the health of the liver, an indication of the potential severity of any liver injury, change in liver status over time, and a starting place for further diagnostic testing.
The panel usually consists of several tests that are run at the same time on a blood sample. These may include:
• Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) – an enzyme mainly found in the liver; the best test for detecting hepatitis
• Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) – an enzyme related to the bile ducts; often increased when they are blocked
• Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) – an enzyme found in the liver and a few other places, particularly the heart and other muscles in the body
• Bilirubin – two different tests of bilirubin often used together (especially if a person has jaundice): total bilirubin measures all the bilirubin in the blood; direct bilirubin measures a form that is conjugated (combined with another compound) in the liver
• Albumin – measures the main protein made by the liver and tells whether or not the liver is making an adequate amount of this protein
• Total Protein – measures albumin and all other proteins in blood, including antibodies made to help fight off infections
Depending on the doctor and the laboratory, other tests that may be included in a liver panel are:
• Gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) – another enzyme found mainly in liver cells
• Lactic acid dehydrogenase (LDH)
• Prothrombin time (PT) – the liver produces proteins involved in the clotting (coagulation) of blood; the PT measures clotting function and, if abnormal, may indicate liver damage.
How is the sample collected for testing?
A blood sample is obtained by inserting a needle into a vein in the arm.
