    📖🖥️ The PFF Community Registry is a series of surveys for all community members affected by pulmonary fibrosis or interstitial lung disease. Each case and experience is unique and much about PF and ILD remains unknown. The PFF Community Registry seeks to change that. Knowledge is the first step in understanding how to positively help all who are impacted by these diseases, and your responses to our surveys can help researchers get closer to a cure. To help you learn more, read the PFF Registry Report! The report outlines everything you need to know about this crucial research program — including the fact that it's all online and that we need YOU to join.

    Congratulations to Team PFF Leader Alex Girshin for completing the Half - Ironman Aquabike Race in memory of his mother-in-law, Anna Vertlib. Alex was connected to the PFF by his mother-in-law's pulmonologist, Dr. Mary K. Porteous of Penn Medicine, who recommended the PFF to him and his family. After learning more about the PFF, Alex raised $2,803.77 for the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation to strengthen our programming and help find a cure for PF. All of us here at the PFF would like to thank Alex and his family for their support in raising funds and awareness about pulmonary fibrosis, and we congratulate him on completing his 1.2-mile swim and 56-mile bike ride. 🎊 If you or your family are interested in hosting your own Team PFF fundraiser like Alex, please fill out our Team PFF interest form to get started today! https://lnkd.in/grucnHS7

    🚨 😱 Review before you renew! Despite some positive changes coming to Medicare, it is more important than ever to review the changes to your plan for the coming year before you renew. Though your premium may be the same or lower, it’s very likely there will be changes to your plan’s coverages. You may have already received information from Medicare that provides a summary of these changes. In the newest blog post by Jennifer Simokaitis, Manager of the PFF Help Center, we talk about some of the things you need to know before you renew your coverage. https://lnkd.in/gebJaVBW
