What Is Usher Syndrome?

Usher Syndrome Awareness Day is Sept 18. You might not have heard of Usher syndrome, but this rare, inherited disorder causes hearing and vision loss in infants. The hearing loss can be mild to complete, and the vision slowly deteriorates over time. Scientists have identified 3 major types of Usher syndrome, characterized by how severe the hearing loss is. Treatment for this condition will depend on your child’s symptoms, age, health, as well as what type of Usher syndrome they have; early diagnosis of the condition, as well as proper management of it, can help improve your child’s overall quality of life.

What Is Usher Syndrome?

black and white illustration of an ear with a line going through it — *Usher syndrome causes deafness in young children and adults.*

Named after Charles Usher, the British eye surgeon who identified the condition in 1914, Usher syndrome causes deafness because of an impaired ability in the inner ear and auditory nerves to transmit sound to the brain. The vision loss associated with it is caused by retinitis pigmentosa, a disorder that affects the retina, in which the light-sensing cells of the retina break down and cause vision loss over time. Blind spots develop first, and over time, they enlarge and merge to create tunnel vision.

How Common Is Usher Syndrome?

The National Institute of Health reports that Usher syndrome affects approximately 4 to 17 children out of 100,000 people, and accounts for about 50% of all hereditary deaf-blindness cases.

Causes Of Usher Syndrome

Usher syndrome is a genetic disease, passed down from parents to children when both parents are carriers of the gene. It is caused by mutations in several different genes that make up proteins involved in normal hearing, vision, and balance.

Usher syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder, meaning:

Both men and women are equally likely to have the disorder; it does not affect one gender more than the other.
The condition occurs only when a child inherits both copies of the same gene from each parent.

Types and Symptoms of Usher Syndrome

There are 3 different types of Usher syndrome, each with a different level of severity. Types 1 and 2 are the most common, making up 95% of Usher syndrome cases. The types are characterized in the following ways:

Type 1- Children with this type will have hearing loss or deafness at birth and severe balance issues. Babies will be able to sit without support, but at a later age than normal; they will also be late walkers, rarely walking before 18 months. Vision problems will begin before age 10, starting with difficulty seeing at night, and progressing quickly to total blindness. Many children with this type of Usher syndrome will not benefit from cochlear implants, an electronic device that can help people with hearing loss.
Type 2– This type is characterized by hearing loss from birth and gradual vision loss that begins in either adolescence or adulthood. At birth, babies with type 2 Usher syndrome will have moderate to severe hearing loss, but normal balance. They will develop night vision problems as teenagers, with vision loss progressing more slowly and generally not resulting in total blindness. Children with this type will benefit from hearing aids.
Type 3– People with type 3 Usher syndrome will experience hearing loss and vision loss beginning later in life. Babies will have normal hearing, with hearing loss beginning during late childhood or adolescence. Most children will have normal to near-normal balance, but may develop problems later in life. Night blindness starts in puberty, with blind spots occurring by late teens and total blindness by middle age. People with type 3 can benefit from hearing aids, as well.

Diagnosis

All newborn babies are screened for hearing problems when they are in the hospital, and if there is a problem, there will be follow-up testing. If there are any additional signs and symptoms of the syndrome, genetic testing might be done to find out if they have the Usher syndrome gene. Your child’s healthcare provider will also check your infant’s eyesight with the following tests:

Electronystagmography (ENG)– A test that checks eye movements to help diagnose balance problems.
Vision Testing– Physical examination of the retina to detect changes in blood vessels. Visual field testing will be done to measure the peripheral vision, as well as an electroretinogram (ERG), an exam based on the retina’s response to light, which confirms the diagnosis of retinitis pigmentosa.

Early diagnosis is important because it improves the likelihood of treatment success.

Treatment

Unfortunately, there is no known cure for Usher syndrome, but treatment will help manage hearing, vision, and balance problems. Early diagnosis is important, because it improves the likelihood of treatment success; treatment will depend on your child’s symptoms, age, and health, as well as how severe the condition is. Treatment can include:

Cochlear implants
Hearing aids
Hearing or auditory training
Use of American Sign Language
Speech, physical, and occupational therapy
Low vision support, such as magnifiers (hand held and for digital or computer use), large-print reading materials, or audio recordings.
Orientation and mobility training to help with balance
Vitamin A, which a long-term clinical trial from the National Eye Institute and the Foundation for Fighting Blindness suggests can slow the progression of retinitis pigmentosa.
Counseling

Although there is no cure for Usher syndrome, children with the condition can live full, happy lives with ongoing treatment to help manage it. Seeing your child battling a condition like Usher syndrome is not easy, and the last thing you need in this situation is stress over how to pay the medical bills for treatments.

Is That Rash Psoriasis Or Eczema?

Are you experiencing dry, scaly, or itchy skin? And have you been hoping that it will eventually go away on its own? Well, if it’s not going away on its own, but is persistent, you might have a skin condition like psoriasis or eczema. These two similar conditions, which both cause rashes, are very common: more than 7 million Americans have psoriasis, while over 30 million have some type of eczema. Knowing the difference can help you identify your condition, learn what is causing it, and determine how best to treat it. And because August is Psoriasis Action Month, there is no better time to learn how to take care of your rash.

What Is Psoriasis?

Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune condition that is not contagious, and which causes skin cells to overproduce; as the excess skin cells die, they build up into scales, making the skin red, inflamed, and itchy. There are multiple types of psoriasis, but plaque psoriasis is the most common one, accounting for 80-90% of cases of the condition. There is no cure for it, but there are some topical pharmaceutical treatments that can help control the condition.

It is unclear what causes the immune system to become overactive and trigger psoriasis, but genes and family history can play a role in who develops it: approximately 40% of people with psoriasis have a family member with the condition, and if one parent has psoriasis, their child has a roughly 30% chance of also having it. Stress, smoking, and certain infections, such as strep throat, can trigger psoriasis, but it usually appears when you are young (between the age of 16 and 22).

What Is Eczema?

Eczema is a long-term condition that is marked by inflammation of the skin, often as a reaction to dyes, fabrics, soaps, and other irritating substances. It is actually a group of skin conditions, including the common types: atopic dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, and contact dermatitis. Atopic dermatitis is the most common type of eczema, with over 18 million Americans suffering from it.

Eczema typically occurs in people with a family history of asthma, hay fever, or other allergies, and if a parent has eczema, their child is 2-3 times more likely than other children to develop it, as well. In fact, although adults can develop the condition, eczema is most common in babies and children, and usually appears as early as 6 months; while many children will outgrow the condition, many will have it for their whole lives.

What Do Psoriasis & Eczema Look Like?

In looking at the two conditions, it can be hard to tell the difference visually between the two. “You have to look at all the clinical aspects of a rash to distinguish between eczema and psoriasis, including the history and the patient’s other medical problems,” according to dermatologist Anthony Fernandez, MD, PhD.

Symptoms of psoriasis include:

Patches of red, thick, raised skin
Scaling of the plaques
Different sizes of plaques
Itchy plaques

Symptoms of eczema include:

Dry skin
Inflamed, peeling, or cracked skin
Blistered or pus-filled skin
Itchy skin
Rashes on the elbows, behind the knees, or on the face, hands, and feet

One of the most obvious clues that can help differentiate the two is fluid leaking from the skin, which points to eczema. “When we see that, we definitely think about eczema instead of psoriasis,” he says. “But there are definitely times when we cannot tell the difference. And, in those cases, we will perform biopsies.”

Easing Symptoms

You can ease symptoms of these skin conditions by using over-the-counter treatments, such as salicylic acid, lactic acid, calamine, and coal tar. Other things you can try include:

Practicing good skin care by keeping your skin moisturized, especially after you shower and in dry environments
Avoiding hot water, harsh soaps, washcloths, or other things that can irritate your skin
Avoiding long, hot baths or showers
Avoiding triggers that can worsen symptoms
Eating a healthy diet
Drinking more water
Exercising regularly

If none of the above helps, and the symptoms of your psoriasis or eczema are staying the same or getting worse, speak to a dermatologist. They can prescribe topical medicated treatments that reduce inflammation, redness, and itching. Your doctor can also prescribe:

Immunosuppressive drugs, or oral medications to reduce your body’s immune activity
Phototherapy, or ultraviolet light treatment
Topical cortisol
Biologics, which are shots that target a specific molecule in each disease

If you have eczema or psoriasis, you are not alone. You can live an active life with either condition, but they can be very uncomfortable, so if you are experiencing any of the above-mentioned symptoms, see your doctor to determine which condition you have, as well as to learn how to treat it and avoid triggers.

If you have a condition like psoriasis or eczema that needs to be treated by a specialist and requires medications to control, you could end up with big medical bills, especially if you do not have insurance, or if your current plan is insufficient. If you are looking for health insurance to cover dermatologist visits or treatments for skin conditions, EZ can help. We can compare plans from the top-rated insurance companies in the country in minutes, and find an affordable one that provides the coverage you need, so you can pay less out-of-pocket.

What Is Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA)?

Is your child showing signs of motor delays? If so, this could be an early warning sign of a serious medical condition known as spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a rare neuromuscular disease that causes the muscles to become weak and waste away. Approximately 10,000 to 25,000 children and adults have spinal muscular atrophy in the U.S., and around 1 in every 50 Americans is a genetic carrier. There is no complete cure for SMA, and since August is Spinal Muscular Atrophy Awareness Month, we hope to bring awareness to this condition, so more research can be done to find a cure.

What Is Spinal Muscular Atrophy?

SMA is a rare genetic disease that affects approximately 1 in 10,000 children in the United States, and is the number one genetic cause of infant mortality. People with SMA are either missing a part of the Survival Motor Neuron 1 (SMN1) gene or have a mutated gene; having this defective gene means that they do not produce enough survival motor neuron (SMN) protein, which is vital for the health of nerve cells in the spinal cord that control muscle movement. If these nerve cells are not functioning, the muscles do not receive the signals that tell the muscles to contract, which causes the muscles to atrophy, or become smaller and weaker. The condition mainly affects the muscles closest to the torso and neck, and the muscle weakness will generally worsen with age.

The 5 Types Of Spinal Muscular Atrophy

There are 5 types of spinal muscular atrophy:

Type 0– This is very rare and very serious, and can be detected before birth, usually because of decreased fetal movement in the weeks prior to delivery. After birth, babies will have weak muscle tone and weak respiratory muscles, which makes it hard for them to breathe and eat. Infants with this form of SMA might only survive a few months.
Type 1– Also referred to as Werdnig-Hoffman disease, this type of SMA accounts for around 60% of cases. It is a severe form of muscle weakness that is evident before 6 months of age; infants with this form of the disease have limited movement, cannot sit without support, and have trouble eating and breathing. Most children with type 1 will die before age 2.
Type 2– Also referred to as Dubowitz disease, this type of SMA is usually diagnosed after 6 months of age, but before age 2. Children can sit without support, but cannot walk or stand without aid. Most children with type 2 SMA will live into adulthood.
Type 3– Also referred to as Kugelber-Welander disease, this type causes muscle weakness that begins after early childhood. Type 3 can also be diagnosed in the teenage years, and those who suffer from it will be able to walk, but will have limited mobility as they grow, and will need a wheelchair. Life expectancy is normal.
Type 4– This is a rare adult form of SMA, accounting for less than 1% of all diagnosed cases. It does not appear until the mid-30s, and will lead to mild motor impairment. Most people with this type of the disease have a normal life expectancy.

How SMA Is Diagnosed

If a doctor suspects SMA, usually after observing weakness or a delay in reaching developmental milestones, they will perform a blood test to look for mutations of the SMN1 gene. The blood work can identify 95% of SMA types 1, 2, 3, and 4, and can show if someone is a carrier of the gene, meaning that they can pass the condition on to their children. If the blood work shows that the gene is normal, but there is a family history of the genetic mutation, other tests can be done, including:

Electromyography– records electrical activity of the muscles during rest and contraction
Nerve conduction velocity study– measures the nerves’ ability to send electrical signals
Other blood tests performed by a neurologist

If SMA is suspected at birth, a small blood sample will be taken and screened for genetic conditions; if the test is positive for SMA, follow-up testing will be done to confirm the gene.

Treatment For Spinal Muscular Atrophy

There is no complete cure for spinal muscular atrophy, but if you or your child is diagnosed with the disease, the earlier you seek treatment, the better. The treatment depends on the type of SMA and the symptoms, but can range anywhere from occupational therapy to medical equipment such as braces, crutches, walkers, and wheelchairs. There is now also a prescription medication available to treat SMA: in December 2016, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Nusinersen (Spinraza™), the first drug to receive approval to treat children and adults with SMA. The drug is an injection that goes into the fluid surrounding the spinal cord, which helps increase the production of the SMN protein.

Research to find a cure for SMA is ongoing, and, in 2019, the FDA approved a gene therapy for children under 2 years of age. This gene replacement therapy, known by the brand name Zolgensma, is a one-time infusion that delivers a functional copy of the defective or missing gene to affected cells.

Spinal muscular atrophy, while rare, is one of the more common rare diseases according to the SMA Foundation; it can occur in any child, especially if the gene runs in your family. If you’re concerned, you can get tested to find out if you carry the gene, and your baby will get tested when born, as well. If your baby does have the gene, more testing will be done to get a proper diagnosis.

Treatments and therapies for children and adults with SMA have come a long way, and there is hope: many people living with the condition can live a long life with therapy. Having a good health insurance plan can help reduce the out-of-pocket costs for the testing and therapy required for illnesses like SMA; if your current plan is not sufficient, and you would like to compare plans to find the most coverage with the most savings, EZ can help.

The Importance Of Eye Care For Children

August is Children’s Eye Health and Safety Awareness Month, so let’s all take a moment and think about when we last took our children to the optometrist to get their eyes checked. If you’re like a lot of parents, you might not have taken them in a long time, or even ever, if they’ve never shown any obvious signs of vision impairment. Getting regular eye exams, though, is not something we should put off; after all, according to the CDC, approximately 6.8% of children younger than 18 in the United States have a diagnosed eye or vision condition, with studies suggesting that 10% of preschoolers and 25% of school-aged children have vision issues. This month, we want to help raise awareness about the importance of eye care for your children, and how keeping on top of their eye health can help your child succeed.

How Often Your Child Should Get Checked

Your child should see an optometrist for their first eye exam when they are around 6 months old. The doctor will check their eye movement patterns, as well as check for any eye health issues that could need correction, like astigmatism, farsightedness, and nearsightedness. After this initial eye exam, your child should be seen again at least once between the ages of 2 and 5; this is important because, according to the American Optometric Association, 1 in 4 children wear or need glasses by the time they are in kindergarten! Once your child is 6 years old, you should take them to the optometrist every year for vision screenings (your pediatrician might do these at their annual well visits, as well).

Why It Is Important To Get Regularly Checked

As children grow, their eyes change quickly, so the best way to catch any problems early on is by getting their eyes checked regularly. Not only that, but making sure your child’s eyes are healthy is vital to their education: according to the American Optometric Association, about 80% of learning in school occurs through visual activities like reading, writing, and using computers, so if your child has undiagnosed eye issues, they can end up having difficulty keeping up in school. They can become easily fatigued and have problems with attention because they are struggling; in addition, if they play sports, their vision could cause hand-eye coordination problems, and they could get injured.

While your pediatrician and your child’s school do perform annual vision screenings, these screenings will only test whether your child’s vision is 20/20, or if they have issues seeing things that are close up or far away. These simple screenings cannot recognize or point out any specific eye conditions your child may be experiencing – in fact, around 60% of vision problems go undetected with one of these screenings.

Early Signs Of Eye Conditions

Children might not realize that they have vision issues, or might be having issues but won’t complain to you about them, so it’s important for you to be aware of the common signs and symptoms of eye conditions, and seek help if necessary. Common signs of vision issues in children can include:

Squinting
Frequently rubbing their eyes
Straining or turning their head to look at things
Lazy eye
Color blindness
Blurry or distorted vision, which is a sign of astigmatism
Frequent headaches
Covering one eye
Holding things close to their face
Short attention span
Difficulty with hand-eye coordination while playing sports

Ways You Can Protect Your Children’s Eye Health

There are some proactive things you can do to improve your child’s eye health, including:

Look for the common signs of eye issues above.
Provide a balanced diet- nutrients such as zinc, omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamins A, C, and E are all beneficial to eye health.
Protect their eyes with necessary eyewear- if your child is active and plays sports, make sure to provide them with protective eyewear made with shatterproof plastic. Research shows that 90% of childhood eye injuries can be prevented!
Limit use of digital screens– try to keep screens 18-24 inches from their eyes and encourage them to follow the 20-20-20 rule, which means they should try to look up from the screen every 20 minutes and look at something at least 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
Attend regular eye exams!

Getting regular, thorough eye exams and treating any vision conditions is important for your child’s health, as well as for their academic success. Taking your child to the optometrist can help catch any conditions that your child’s pediatrician or school nurse cannot, but some health insurance plans do not cover vision care – so if you are interested in a more comprehensive health insurance plan that does offer great vision care, EZ can help!

Obamacare Is Here to Stay!

As of June 17, the Affordable Care Act (ACA), also known as Obamacare, is still intact, and the long, drawn-out fights over the legislation seem to be at an end. The ACA survived its third major Supreme Court challenge with a 7-2 decision in its favor, meaning the comprehensive health care reform law will continue to provide health insurance to millions of Americans. Republican lawmakers have decided to no longer focus on repealing the law, despite election promises to end Obamacare.

The Most Recent Lawsuit

brown gavel — *In 2018, the Texas State Attorney General filed a lawsuit to have Obamacare repealed.*

After former President Trump’s administration successfully challenged the individual mandate in 2017, which had meant that Americans were required to have health insurance or face a tax penalty, Texas State Attorney General Ken Paxton, a Republican, filed a lawsuit claiming that Obamacare itself was unconstitutional. His argument was that, without the tax penalty, the coverage requirement is unconstitutional, thus making the whole law unconstitutional. This battle has been going on since 2018, and the Supreme Court has finally had the chance to review the case.

Why The Lawsuit Was Dismissed

The case was decided on a technicality, with 7 justices agreeing that the challengers of the 2010 law did not have the legal right to bring the case, because the plaintiffs did not experience any harm that would give them standing to challenge the law. They did not weigh in on the constitutionality of the law.

The majority opinion stated, “Plaintiffs do not have standing to challenge [the law’s] minimum essential coverage provision because they have not shown a past or future injury fairly traceable to defendants’ conduct enforcing the specific statutory provision they attack as unconstitutional… To have standing, a plaintiff must ‘allege personal injury fairly traceable to the defendant’s allegedly unlawful conduct and likely to be redressed by the requested relief’… No plaintiff has shown such an injury ‘fairly traceable’ to the ‘allegedly unlawful conduct’ challenged here.”

Getting rid of Obamacare would have resulted in millions of Americans losing health insurance, and would have left many without the opportunity to get any; there are currently three dozen states who have opted not to establish a state exchange, so all of their residents’ only option has been to purchase an Obamacare plan. Getting rid of the law would have denied affordable health care plans to Americans whose states have refused to participate in offering exchanges.

“Congress passed the Affordable Care Act to improve health insurance markets, not to destroy them,” Chief Justice John Roberts wrote in the majority opinion.

The Future Of Obamacare

More than 25 million Americans have health insurance coverage through the ACA, and recent polling suggests that more Americans support Obamacare than oppose it. This ruling was a major win for Obamacare, and opens the door for Democratic lawmakers to extend the newly expanded subsidies for the foreseeable future, instead of allowing them to expire at the end of 2022.

“It’s our chance now to really build [on Obamacare], now that [opponents of the law have had] three strikes and…are out,” said Xavier Becerra, the secretary of Health and Human Services, and the former Attorney General of California, who stepped in with other Democratic-led states to defend the law when the Trump administration would not. “Now we know we survive, and now we build.”

Some Democratic lawmakers have taken this win as a way to push forward with universal health care coverage, but Medicare for All still faces a lot of opposition, and President Biden himself campaigned on building up Obamacare rather than pursuing a universal health care model. For now, the main focus of lawmakers is trying to make sure that Obamacare serves all Americans well.

“We’re at a moment when insurers are no longer running away from the exchanges and there’s relative stability in the individual market — and this is a moment that insurance regulators and policymakers should be asking how do your marketplace plans work better for consumers?” said Kevin Lucia, a former Obama administration health official who worked on the law’s implementation. Barrack Obama Former President Obama agrees, saying in a tweet, “Now we need to build on the Affordable Care Act and continue to strengthen and expand it. That’s what @POTUS Biden has done through the American Rescue Plan, giving more families the peace of mind they deserve.”

Is Your Child Fully Covered For College?

Getting your child ready for college can be an exciting and scary time. You’re preparing them to leave your home and venture out on their own, and you might be experiencing a whirlwind of emotions as they prepare to separate from you, gain their independence and make new friends. Not only that, but you’ll be busy making sure they’re fully prepared for this big step; you’re probably thinking things like, “Have they packed everything they need? Are they financially ready?” But have you thought about one of the most important things: your child’s college’s requirements for health insurance? Many people are unaware that their children will need to be insured to attend, and that some colleges even require them to have certain coverage. EZ can help make sure your child is fully covered, either through your health insurance plan, or by helping them find a plan of their own.

College Health Insurance Requirements

african american young man in a black gown holding his black graduation cap while smiling — *Colleges insist on insurance because they don’t want students to have to drop out due to large medical bills.*

One of the biggest reasons that colleges require students to have health insurance is that it promotes student retention and success. If they get sick or hurt and seek treatment without any health insurance, they will face large medical bills, which could affect their ability to pay their tuition, and could mean that they’d have to leave college before they finish. Colleges want to make sure that students can successfully finish school and not have to drop out because of large medical bills, so they require proof of health insurance. If your child doesn’t have adequate coverage, they will need to purchase the college’s health insurance policy, which can be quite expensive. Most colleges have this requirement, so make sure to double check the website or call the registrar’s office before your child begins their first semester.

Meeting The College’s Coverage Standards

You should be aware that even if your child is on your health insurance plan, the plan will need to meet the college’s health insurance requirements, otherwise your child will have to purchase the college’s plan. Most college’s health insurance policies can cost up to $5,000 annually, so if you want to avoid that expense, or help your child avoid that expense, you will have to show proof that your health insurance plan is comparable to the college’s plan. If your plan is not sufficient, your child could find themselves in an unfortunate and frustrating predicament, but there are options: EZ can find you and your child a comparable plan at a more affordable rate!

Save More Money

Choosing a health insurance policy is a big decision: you want to make sure your child can get proper care when they need it, but you don’t want to go into debt – or have them go into debt – because of the premium payments. Our licensed agents can help find the right plan: we work with the top-rated insurance companies in the country, and we will do all the comparisons for you in minutes, as well as sign your child up at no cost. We understand that for parents and college students, every penny counts, which is why our services are completely free! Once we collect some information, we will compare plans and make sure to find your child a plan that not only meets the college’s health insurance requirements, but is also cheaper, saving your family money and allowing your child to concentrate more on their college experience.
