Patient Access
Patient Access for Brand Enhancing Patient Experiences
Today's patients are savvy consumers and they don't want inconvenient scheduling options, excessive phone calls, to answer the same questions repeatedly, and definitely not surprise bills. With provider consolidation becoming the norm and the rise of large integrated health systems, patient experience is crucial for keeping patients happy and in-network. Pre-services, such as scheduling, pre-registration, financial clearance, and pre-authorizations, have remained an overlooked area for provider organizations that want to improve their patient experience.
HEI's health system engineers create the infrastructure and processes required to deliver a best-in-class Patient Access experience that is scalable and patient centric, optimize call center technology to deliver the highest service levels, and ensure that authorization denials are eliminated.
Read the HEI Health Patient Access Experience "Schegistration" Model Overview
One Call Does-It-All "Schegistration"
- Best-in-class processes to ensure accurate information is received from patients in order to issue a clean, reimbursable claim
- Best-in-class processes educating patients to honor their financial obligations at point of service
- Remove waste and inefficiencies from current pre-service operations by standardizing job functions and processes
- Cultural change to a patient value system recognition with a strong focus on transparent patient and community education
- Comprehensive approach to patient access facilitating high net promoter scores and lifetime customer loyalty
The Virtual Revenue Cycle
There is a big push throughout the healthcare industry to allow revenue cycle staff to work from home. Whether it's because of rush hour traffic, attracting and retaining talent, costly office space or employee satisfaction, many healthcare systems are making the move. While the thought of having a virtual business office is very appealing to many leaders, it can be filled with issues and challenges. A virtual revenue cycle solution must safeguard patient health information, compensate for adequate office conditions, and promote staff performance.
HEI Health works with healthcare provider organizations to successfully prepare and transition their workforce for a truly remote revenue cycle model.

Growth Trends for Related Jobs
Aromatherapy is the practice of using essential oils from plants to treat conditions such as stress. Aromatherapy practitioners may be healthcare professionals who take additional training in aromatherapy -- such as doctors, nurses or massage therapists -- or individuals who have no formal training except in aromatherapy. Aromatherapy certificate programs, available at colleges, aromatherapy schools and from online sources, range from 30-hour programs to programs of 400 hours or more.
The Basics
Aromatherapy programs typically cover basic topics such as botany; knowledge of various systems in the body, such as the nervous, digestive and respiratory systems; chemistry related to the use of essential oils; and how to develop and maintain therapeutic relationships with clients. Students are taught how to use essential oils alone or in blends, and how to use carrier oils for dilution purposes to prevent skin irritation. Most programs also cover business skills, ethics, confidentiality and marketing.
Categories of Schools
The Alliance of International Aromatherapists, or AIA, notes that aromatherapy schools fall into one of three categories. All offer certificates rather than diplomas or degrees. Foundation-level schools provide a minimum of 100 hours of training. Professional-level schools must provide at least 200 hours of training, and clinical-level training must be at least 400 hours long. In addition, some schools and private practitioners offer short-term certificate courses in aromatherapy that may last from from 30 to 40 hours.
Advanced Programs
More advanced programs cover other topics or go into much more depth on basic topics. For example, a foundation program may cover at least three blending theories, while a professional-level program covers more theories and the holistic – or whole body -- effect of blends. Clinical-level programs teach students how to modify blends for certain purposes based on the latest clinical research.
Programs Differ
Because aromatherapy practice is neither licensed nor regulated, it can be difficult to determine what certificate program to choose. Programs recognized by the AIA offer a standardized curriculum, and some AIA-recognized programs offer more than the minimum. The National Association for Holistic Aromatherapy, or NAHA, has standards for foundation and professional programs, although they differ from those of the AIA. For example, the AIA requires a foundation program to present 100 or more hours of education, while the NAHA requires only 30 hours. Careful research should help you choose the best program for your circumstances.
Aromatherapy Certification Examination
If you have completed either a professional or clinical aromatherapy course, you are eligible to take the Aromatherapy Registration Council certification examination. ARC requires at least 200 hours of aromatherapy education in a program approved by either the AIA or NAHA. You must provide copies of your transcripts with your application. Testing is completed online at a Professional Testing Corporation facility. The examination fee is $325. You should receive your results about six weeks after the examination.

Using Emojis in FileMaker
As you may know, FileMaker uses Unicode text with 16bit, so Character() function doesn't work with the bigger codes for getting emojis like 128512.
As an example you can go to the Full Emoji List and pick a smily. e.g. first one has unicode code point 1F600, which is a hex number, so we convert it using the calculator or Math.HexToDec function. This gives us 128512 and char(128512) gives just a wrong result. But our MBS( "Text.Character"; 128512 ) function call works and returns the smiley as text: 😀.
We can also get flags by using Text.Character and the right magic number or the start: 127397. If you add the ascii code of the letters for the country, you get back the unicode characters forming the flags.
Here Germany (DE) as example:
MBS( "Text.Character"; 127397 + Code ( "D" )) & MBS( "Text.Character"; 127397 + Code ( "E" ))
This returns 🇩🇪. Try it for your country!
In Xojo, this calculation would be:

Two swords per man...?
Rising Storm is a mod for the soon-to-be-released title from Tripwire Interactive, Heroes of Stalingrad. It will bring the intense and realistic firefighting of 'Heroes of Stalingrad' to the Pacific Theater, 1942-45, pitting the US Army and Marine Corps against the Imperial Japanese Army and Special Naval Landing Forces. The bloody multiplayer battles will be fought out across the Pacific from the Philippines through to Okinawa and will feature all the innovations of 'HoS' and a few more of its own. The development team features some of the leading lights of the Red Orchestra modders along with some very strong candidates from the various CG communities that can be found across the world. There are over 20 of the top 'stars of the future' on the team, thanks to the support of Tripwire. The mod team team have been given advance access to the development tools to bring all the latest features of the Unreal engine to bear on this project, promising a superlative gaming experience.
Two swords per man...?
Yeah, I don't know if they can fix it but I've seen comments about it everytime we see the Jap officer...
I would rather see sheath empty all the time than notice guys wielding two swords.
Just go ahead and think of one as a No-Dachi and the other as a traditional Katana... or alternatively think of the Officers having their Samurai Status, and so they wear the traditional daishō dual swords as a symbol.
Maybe when he drops the first one, the other one is his 'secondary'

Should You Charge Sales Tax for Out-of-State Customers?
Whether you must charge your customers out-of-state sales taxes comes down to whether you're operating in an origin-based state or a destination-based tax state. The process of determining which tax rates must be applied to individual purchases is called "sales tax sourcing," and yes, it can be daunting. Sourcing is mainly a concern for businesses that ship their products to other locations, such Internet-based operations, as opposed to retail businesses operating out of physical locations.
Charging Out-of-State Sales Taxes in Destination-Based Tax States
Most states have a destination-based sales tax. Each sale is considered to take place in the jurisdiction where the product is ultimately used -- where it's shipped or picked up from. If someone from Florida purchases an item from your Georgia brick-and-mortar store, you would charge Georgia's sales tax because the customer takes possession of the product there.
But if you ship the product to Florida, you must charge Florida's sales tax and file a corresponding Florida sales tax return. You would charge the destination state's rate, in addition to any local or county sales taxes for the address to which you're shipping.
Sales Taxes in Origin-Based States
Relatively few states have origin-based taxes where a sale is considered to take place at the location where it's completed, even if the product is shipped elsewhere. If you're running a business in an origin-based state, you will collect sales taxes for your state on all your retail sales.
Does Your Business Have a Nexus in Another State?
Here's another wrinkle: Your business may have a "nexus" in another state, meaning you have an affiliate or some other legal connection there that effectively subjects you to its tax laws. Even if your primary location is in an origin-based state, you may be obligated to collect that other state's sales taxes and file a sales tax return there.
What if the Customer Picks up the Product?
If you operate in an origin-based state, it doesn't matter if your customer picks up his product because all your sales are subject to your state's sales tax anyway. But if you're in a destination-based state and the customer picks the product up at your business location, this is considered delivery. The destination of the sale would be your business location, so you would not charge the customer an out-of-state sales tax.

And then there's California. This state has a modified origin system in place in which state, county and city taxes are origin-based, but district transaction taxes are destination-based.
Many states have different rules for brick-and-mortar retailers and "remote sellers," those that operate exclusively on the Internet. If you're a remote seller in an origin-based state, you may still have to charge out-of-state sales tax based on the tax rate of the destination state, but you may be able to simplify the calculation process by charging a flat-use tax rate. Contact the destination state's Department of Revenue to determine what, exactly, you're supposed to charge.

This pickled salmon, marinated simply with Asian flavors, like rice wine vinegar and fresh ginger, was served as a light starter at the pre-party at our home, preceding the exciting Opening Night Gala at the Metropolitan Opera. For salmon to marinate evenly, choose a center cut of good quality wild salmon fillet. The marinade is delicious by itself, use whatever is left to dress a salad the next day. Parisienne scoop is one my favorite tools in the kitchen. It can be used on all sorts of vegetables and fruits, the scooped tiny little balls, like the cucumber balls I used with this recipe, are simply fun and easy to make. By marinating the salmon in advance, thereby "slow-cooking" it, saves tons of time in the kitchen. With the razor sharp knife , slice the pickled salmon fillet very thinly against the grain and serve the slices in endive leaves or separately on the platter drizzled with delicious marinade and scattered cucumber balls on top. Easy but looks festive enough even for our opera loving friends!

Additionally, Billboard editors identified three bands from six regions of the U.S. based on a variety of factors, including Heat Score, a formula that measures online fan engagement and drives Billboard's Uncharted chart of emerging artists. Through a contest called "Cruze-ing To Vegas" sponsored by Chevrolet, consumers cast over 217,000 votes, narrowing the competition down to one band from each region. These final six group favorites will each receive the keys to a Chevrolet Cruze for a road trip that will take them from their home base to Las Vegas.
A camera crew will follow each of the bands and will document their journey as they play gigs along the way, rock out to the Cruze's standard XM radio, and engage with fans online and in person. The six bands will communicate with their fans while on the road through blogging, tweeting and by creating and sharing playlists, building a viral audience and improving their social Heat Score, one of the many goals as they set their sights on Las Vegas. All six of the bands will arrive at Fremont Street in Las Vegas on May 18th to compete in the ultimate battle of the bands. The winning band will then be honored as the "Dreamseeker Artist of the Year" at the 2011 Billboard Music Awards.
The six finalists for Dreamseeker Artist of the Year are:
From the Northwest, Hotels (Seattle, WA)
From the West, AJ Rafael (Moreno Valley, CA)
From the Southwest, Otenki (Houston, TX)
From the Midwest, Lightning Love (Detroit, MI)
From the Southeast, Side by Side (Charlotte, NC)
From the Northeast, Gentlemen Hall (Boston, MA)

There was good and bad news in today's personal spending report.
First, the good: US consumers saw their personal income rise by 0.5%, or $78 billion, in March to a $14.5 trillion SAAR, driven mostly by a $32 billion increase in service wages, as well as $16 billion from government transfer receipts.
Now the bad (or, if one is a Keynesian, doubly good): personal spending more than offset the increase in income, rising by 0.9% or the most since August 2009, which rose to $12.3 trillion SAAR, driven roughly equally by an increase in spending on Goods ($53 billion) and Services ($54 billion). Curiously the increase in goods spending was the single biggest monthly increase also since August 2009. As for services, the systematic increase on spending over the past several months is unmistakable as far more money is allocated toward healthcare, that one major spending category which rescued Q1 GDP.
Goods spending:
Services spending, the bulk of which was for utilities and healthcare:
It would appear there was no "harsh weather" effect in March, even though corporations, and not to mention the Q1 GDP, can't complain fast enough about how horrible the month and the quarter both were.
End result: since spending was so much higher than income for one more month, at least according to the bean counters, the savings rate tumbled and at 3.8% (down from 4.2% in February), was the second lowest since before the Lehman failure with the only exception of January 2013 after the withholding tax rule changeover.
So for all those sellside economists who are praying that the March spending spree, funded mostly from savings, will continue into Q2 (because remember March is in Q1, which as we already know had an abysmal 0.1% GDP growth rate), we have one question: where will the money come from to pay for this ongoing spending spree?

BEIJING (AP) — China on Monday criticized President Donald Trump's threat to cut off U.S. trade with countries that deal with North Korea and rejected pressure to do more to halt the North's nuclear development.
Trump issued the threat after North Korea on Sunday exploded a thermonuclear device in its sixth and most powerful nuclear test. The threat was seen as a warning to China, North Korea's main trading partner and only major ally.
A foreign ministry spokesman, Geng Shuang, criticized Trump's stance as unfair to Beijing.
"What is definitely unacceptable to us is that on the one hand we work so hard to peacefully resolve this issue and on the other hand our interests are subject to sanctions and jeopardized," Geng said at a regular news briefing. "This is unfair."
Such an approach would be drastic if applied to China, from which the United States imports goods worth about $40 billion a month.
Trump said it was under consideration "in addition to other options."
Asked whether Beijing would support tougher U.N. sanctions such as cutting off oil supplies to North Korea, Geng didn't mention oil but said whatever happened would depend on discussions among council members. Geng said China, one of five permanent Security Council members with power to veto U.N. actions, would take part in a "responsible and constructive way."
Geng expressed frustration at Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull's comment that Beijing had a responsibility to influence North Korea due to its status as the North's main trading partner.
"We keep stressing that we cannot solely rely on China to resolve this issue," said Geng. "We need all parties to work in the same direction."

'The Tomorrow People': Madeleine Mantock on romance, Jedekiah's boss
If Tomorrow People can use teleportation, telekinesis, and telepathy at the drop of a hat, do they still party like humans? Or perhaps the better question is: Do they get the chance to party like humans? We're going to find out the answer in tonight's episode, "All Tomorrow's Parties."
Determined to have some normalcy in the lives of her fellow people, Cara somehow convinces John to let the Tomorrow People have a little fun above ground. After all, everyone deserves a night off, right? It's a good idea, but not everyone has to deal with Ultra, which means that, predictably, the night doesn't go as planned. And those unplanned occurrences cause Stephen to have to ditch his Homecoming date, a.k.a. his already curious best friend Astrid. So we tracked down Astrid herself, Madeleine Mantock, to talk about tonight's episode:
On Astrid's growing curiosity about Stephen: "[Astrid] saw what she saw and didn't really get any confirmation of it from Stephen. She never got that, so she decided to figure out what's going on. Episode 5, we go to with homecoming, but things may go awry. There are deterrents from outside forces and organizations. She just wants to know. She's not judging him. She's saying, 'I think I saw this, did I?' By the end of episode 5, her mind kind of has changed and she's not as, let's just say Stephen may come to her with something."
On Astrid's reaction to the big news: "I think there are two sides to the coin on this: First, it's like, 'Oh it's actually quite brilliant. You still look normal, but you can just do some extra-special stuff.' But then, the other side of it is the realization that they're not just allowed to run around, they're all being hunted by this organization. For anybody, it's a lot to discover. Fantastic, you can do cool stuff but also, are you in any danger and if so, how can we keep you safe?"
On Astrid's purpose: "I think initially [her purpose] is very much to support Stephen. Is she in the line of fire? I don't know. But I do feel like at some point we will see her in the mix. I hope so, anyway."
On a potential romance between Stephen and Astrid: "I think because of the kind of show that we're on, it would be safe to say that everybody at some point will probably have a romantic crossing. Astrid and Stephen are friends. It's quite clear to me that Astrid would like a little bit more. But also, Stephen and Cara have this connection. She was in his head when he started to break out and knows what he's been going through in a much more intense way than Astrid does. [Astrid is] always going, 'What's going on?' when Cara just knows. And as we get further along, different characters may meet.
On viewers potentially seeing Astrid's back story: "Yes! I'm happy to say that you will. Not necessarily in the back story kind of way because she's not a Tomorrow Person and doesn't have a story of breaking out, but about who she is and what she does alongside Stephen. Yes, that will happen."
On the introduction of Jedekiah's mysterious boss: "I know that I'm not allowed to tell you his name. You do meet him in episode 5. The guy who plays him is absolutely lovely."
The Tomorrow People airs tonight at 9 p.m. on The CW.

Western Australian Flight Lieutenant Paul Rattigan will need to keep clear of Santa's sleigh this Christmas as he navigates his Royal Australian Air Force AP3-3C Orion aircraft through the skies of northern Australia.
This is the first Christmas away from home for the former Lesmurdie Senior High School student since joining the Australian Defence Force in 2004.
He is currently one of about 500 personnel deployed this Christmas on Operation Resolute, the ADF's contribution to Australia's whole of government border security effort.
These include Navy, Army and Air Force personnel conducting air, land and sea surveillance and response for approximately 10 per cent of the world's surface, 365 days-a-year.
Up to three Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) AP-3C Orion maritime patrol aircraft including maintenance and air crew provide surveillance of Australia's approaches.
Paul, 28, has experienced a number of highlights since joining the Defence Force and lists his deployment on Operation Slipper in Afghanistan and a successful search and rescue in the Solomon Islands as two of the most significant.
To add to the long list of reasons why Paul is looking forward to returning home, his wife Vanessa recently gave birth to their first child, Zoe, who is now three months old.
Paul said he is grateful for the support of his wife and said she is very proud of his role in the ADF.
"We're high school sweethearts and she is such a wonderful support, it's going to be hard to be away from her and Zoe. I'll certainly miss them but it gives me a lot to look forward to when I get home."
When asked how he'll celebrate Christmas on operations this year FLTLT Rattigan said, "we'll be wearing Christmas hats on the aircraft".
Since his enlistment in the RAAF, Paul has earned the Australian Defence Medal, Australian Active Service Medal, Afghanistan Campaign Medal and Operational Service Medal.

Cloud ERP vs. on-premises ERP: 7 key differences
Understanding the differences between traditional on-premises ERP and SaaS ERP is critical before making any buying decisions. Here's how they compare in seven important areas.

relationship management -- to help organizations operate more effectively. Due to the importance and complexity of these systems to organizations, ERP has been one of the most high-stakes, difficult software systems to implement. To this point, addressing the cloud ERP vs. on-premises ERP vs. hybrid ERP question is critical when making a buying decision and needs to be based on an organization's strategic requirements rather than what's being hyped or is most popular.
Today, ERP systems are set up a few different ways. Modern ERP systems have expanded from their predecessors with capabilities encompassing more than just resource planning. Viewed in the past as monolithic systems that assisted with a limited set of business operations, ERP systems are now a collection of stand-alone or integrated components -- or a combination thereof -- that helps manage specific aspects of the enterprise and improve the overall customer experience.
Cloud ERP vs. on-premises ERP
ERP has three main deployment models: traditional on premise; in the cloud; and hybrid, a combination of the two. For clarification, cloud ERP is a term used to define hosting within a cloud platform for fully licensed ERP software. Today, many people say "cloud ERP" but mean a subset of a cloud application called software as a service (SaaS) ERP. SaaS ERP is software that is owned and hosted off-site in the cloud by the software provider but paid for on demand, i.e., as it is used. In summary, SaaS ERP is a type of cloud option, but not all cloud ERPs are necessarily SaaS.
Because SaaS is an increasingly popular model that stands in contrast to the traditional on-premises model, it can be helpful at the outset to understand specific facets of SaaS ERP when considering the cloud ERP vs. on-premises ERP question or the hybrid model.
Here are seven considerations when choosing between a cloud and on-premises ERP system.
System and data control
In a SaaS scenario, a third party manages software and data. Managed in-house, on-premises ERP systems require more IT staff and more associated costs. On the other hand, organizations have a higher degree of control over the systems and data with on-premises systems and data centers.
Most cloud ERP systems enable some personalization, letting the business configure the system to match the company's look and feel, such as including use of company logos. However, controlling true customization in terms of rewriting code can be much more limited, especially in multi-tenant systems. Minimizing customization can be beneficial to reducing ERP expenses and implementation delays but may also impact competitive advantage if IT cannot accommodate the unique functionality.
This article is part of
What is ERP? Guide to enterprise resource planning software
At some level, most on-premises and cloud ERP software systems offer integration due to the increasing needs of transferring data between applications. Cloud ERP systems tend to use application programming interfaces (APIs), which are tools to help ease integration. Using standard protocols or similar business ecosystems could lower the costs when compared to developing ad hoc integration software. This is why it is important to look at the different integration factors of cloud ERP vs. on-premises ERP.
With cloud-based ERP, integrations automatically carry forward when an application updates without additional investment. However, to upgrade on-premises ERP systems, IT has to reimplement various integrations that a company has installed on its previous software.
on-premises ERP vendors can develop specialized integration modules for customers that have specific data flow needs or existing infrastructure. Because most cloud ERP vendors use the SaaS model, they can't provide that same level of personalization.
Cloud-based ERP software generally receives more frequent updates than traditional systems. In some instances, updates occur monthly or even weekly. This has the added benefit of enabling businesses to remain compliant with changing industry and government regulations. However, with the SaaS model organizations aren't able to choose which upgrades they receive and when they occur.
When deployed, cloud applications can bring scalability to businesses with high growth and rapid expansion. While it is beneficial for any ERP to keep pace, repeated updates are not without their drawbacks -- e.g., companies have less flexibility when it comes to customizations. on-premises ERP customers can work with vendors to customize the software to meet their business requirements. With multi-tenant cloud ERP, enterprises likely won't be able to achieve the same advanced customizations as with on-premises ERP.
Mobile access
It's common to see traditional ERP products offering users mobile access that can assist with remote approvals, notifications and operational visibility. This can sometimes bring added complications for on-premises ERP software, especially if a third-party client is required to act as the link between mobile devices and the ERP system. Because of their web-based nature, many cloud ERP systems are natively mobile and come with standard mobile applications. Ease of mobility is a key difference when considering cloud ERP vs. on-premises ERP.
Security and reliability
The need to protect critical data, such as corporate financials, employee details, customer account information and trade secrets, means that data security remains an essential requirement when considering a new ERP system. In the past, organizations perceived cloud ERP systems to be widely susceptible to breaches, hacks and exploitation, especially when compared to their traditional on-premises counterparts. To give peace of mind, many cloud ERP vendors are touting encryption and use of additional safeguards built on platforms such as Amazon Web Services that have enhanced security protocols.
Another common concern with any ERP system is its inability to operate due to software, hardware and infrastructure malfunctions. Operational disruption can translate into hefty losses. Consider the cloud ERP system's need for internet access, especially for businesses with remote locations or areas with less reliable network connectivity. Equally as important is the overall performance dependability of the cloud ERP vendor that may have multiple redundancies and disaster recovery protocols in place to protect data.
Payment models
On-premises ERP software is generally priced with a one-time, perpetual license and ongoing support fees, some of which may be negotiable. Cloud ERP systems take on subscription-based pricing models that are usually per month or per year. SaaS vendors can price their cloud applications based on a choice of multiple usage factors, such as the number of users, transactions, amount of data or other units of measure.
Total cost of ownership
There are costs associated with any ERP system, whether it's in the cloud or on premise. However, SaaS ERP software has certain kinds of cost flexibility and different longer-term costs to consider. The differences are important when looking at cloud ERP vs. on-premises ERP.
Setup -- Organizations don't have to pay for setup or installation in a cloud ERP deployment. However, they will invest a considerable amount of money -- and time -- installing on-premises ERP software. In addition, with on-premises ERP systems, companies are required to make large upfront and ongoing investments to buy and manage the software, as well as the hardware, servers, facilities and IT staff necessary to run and maintain it.
Enterprises that opt for on-premises ERP systems often have to pay again for any future updates. With SaaS, on the other hand, updates come as part of the subscription at no additional cost.
Customization -- On-premises ERP is generally more customizable but requires time and the expense of additional hardware and possible downtime. Although cloud ERP systems are less expensive and faster to customize, on-premises ERP systems work best for companies that need extensive or unique customizations.
Data -- With on-premises, as well as cloud ERP, enterprises will most likely have to invest the same amount of money and time to move their data to the new system.
Support -- Cloud ERP support is less expensive than on-premises support, since the cloud ERP support is online and included in the subscription price. Additionally, with on-premises software, organizations might have to pay for on-site IT to ensure that the software is functioning properly.
