Veterans: How to Download Your MyHealtheVet Personal Health Record
On August 2, 2010, President Obama announced the “Blue Button” capability that allows Veterans to download their personal health information from their MyHealtheVet account. The government wants Vets to have control of this information to enable Vets to share the data with health care providers, caregivers, or people they trust. Download yours at myhealth.va.gov.
The My HealtheVet Personal Health Record (PHR) is comprised of self-entered health metrics (blood pressure, weight, heart rate, etc.), emergency contact information, test results, family health history, military health history, and other health related information. The Blue Button extract that Veterans can download is a so-called “ASCII text file”, the easiest and simplest electronic text format (see a sample Blue Button file).Blue Button PHRs can be printed, or saved on computers and portable storage devices. Having control of this information enables Veterans to share this data with health care providers, caregivers, or people they trust.

No COLA for Social Security Benefits in 2011
The Social Security Administration has announced that there will be no Cost of Living Adjustment for Social Security and SSI benefits in 2011. COLAs are added when there is a change in the Consumer Price Index, and Social Security states that no change has occurred.
This is the second year in a row that there will be no Cost of Living Adjustment to Social Security Disability, Old Age, or SSI benefits.
