DALLAS, Jan. 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Top 10 Jungle, a
provider of slick digital content and online product reviews for
the medical alert industry, explains to seniors and medical alert
customers how a government shutdown can affect them.
Top 10 Jungle recently released its 2018 rankings for the
medical alert industry. The industry is continuing to skyrocket for
medical alert devices from premium providers like Medical Guardian.
The industry is also seeing a new generation of medical alert
companies focused on affordability, like HelpButton. There seems to
be some confusion about the relationship between medical alert
providers and the emergency services that customers rely on.
"The truth is that the government doesn't really shut down and
there is no need to panic," said Charlie
Rose, Top10Jungle.com analyst. "Medicare and Medicaid will
continue to operate, social security checks will be mailed out,
doctors will be reimbursed and emergency services will continue to
be there for the elderly. The emergency services that medical alert
customers rely on are private enterprise and not directly affected
by a shutdown."
A shutdown that lasts for only a few days may go unnoticed by
most. However, a shutdown that lasts several weeks could affect
Americans in different ways.
The shutdown will affect the travel and cruise industry in
different ways. Passports and renewal documents will face
processing delays. Popular government-operated tourist attractions
like National Parks and monuments can be closed. Government
agencies such as the Internal Revenue Service, the National
Institutes of Health, the National Education Association and
other "non-essential" government programs will close or face
significant delays.
During the Clinton administration, there were two full
government shutdowns during 1995 and 1996 lasting five and 21 days
respectively, the longest to that date, leading to furloughs and
significant disruption. The President and Congress disagreed on
whether to cut government services.
