New Health Information Resources Available

 

New health information links have been posted on the PEF Health Benefits website to assist members seeking information on a variety of topics. Inclusion of the link to a website does not imply endorsement. Be sure to evaluate on-line information carefully and look for corroboration from other sources, including your own health care provider.

The links to websites are organized into the following categories:

1. Consumer information, services and publications--these websites cover many different health-related topics with links to other useful sites.

2. Illness and condition-specific information--included are websites dedicated to conditions such as cancer, AIDS, heart disease and mental illness, plus disease prevention and wellness.

3. Prescription drugs--includes recent FDA drug approvals, reported problems and text of drug package inserts.

4. Health care facilities where PEF members work--each website offers a variety of health information and resources.

Other categories and links will be added in the future. Please send suggestions for additional websites to dstayman@pef.org.
