Article: Impaired heart rate variability in patients with dementia with Lewy bodies: Efficacy of electrocardiogram as a supporting diagnostic marker[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: It has been suggested that impaired heart rate variability (HRV) may be an early sign of Parkinson's disease (PD). The aim of this study was to determine whether HRV can be employed in order to differentiate between dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). We examined HRV in 30 probable DLB patients (16 men and 14 women; mean age, 79.9 years; SD, 4.7 years), and 30 probable AD patients (15 men and 15 women; mean age, 79.8 years; SD, 5.6 years), compared with that in 20 age- and sex-matched controls. Subjects with other causes of impaired HRV were excluded. HRV was determined using the RR intervals of a 5-min electrocardiogram recording. Measurements of beat-to-beat RR variability, including time domains [(RR-standard deviation (SDNN), percentage of consecutive RR intervals differing by more than 50 msec (pNN50), and root mean square difference of successive RR intervals (RMSSD)), and frequency domains [very low- (VLF), low- (LF), and high-frequency (HF) components, and total spectral power (Total power)], were assessed retrospectively. The association between these HRV parameters and cardiac iodine-123 metaiodobenzylguanidine ((123)I-MIBG) scintigraphy were investigated in 22 probable DLB patients. DLB group showed significant decreases compared to AD group in almost all HRV parameters including SDNN, pNN50, RMSSD, VLF, LF, HF, and Total power. Among these, SDNN, VLF, and Total power were correlated with the (123)I-MIBG delayed heart to mediastinum ratio. Impaired HRV was detected in patients with probable DLB. Non-invasive and routine electrocardiogram may have potential in differentiating DLB from AD. Copyright © 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.Parkinsonism & Related Disorders 05/2015; 21(7).

Article: No Associations Found between PGBD1 and the Age of Onset in Japanese Patients Diagnosed with Sporadic Alzheimer's Disease[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: PiggyBac transposable element derived 1 (PGBD1) encodes a molecule involved in epigenetic mechanisms that have been implicated in Alzheimer's disease (AD), and recent genome-wide association studies and meta-analyses have indicated that a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), rs3800324, in PGBD1 could be associated with AD and the age of onset. However, no Japanese patients were examined in these studies. The aim of the present study was to replicate the previous finding in Japanese AD cases. We performed a case-control study (211 cases and 156 controls) to investigate the association between PGBD1 and Japanese AD using 4 tag SNPs including rs3800324. Single SNP and haplotype analysis showed no association between AD and age of onset, whereas genotypic and allelic frequencies of the ∊4 of apolipoprotein E (APOE) showed an association with AD as expected. In Japanese AD, we observed no influence of PGBD1, as either a risk factor or a modifier, even though APOE was associated with AD in this population.11/2012; 2(1):496-502. DOI:10.1159/000345085
Article: No associations found between the genes situated at 6p22.1, HIST1H2BJ, PRSS16, and PGBD1 in Japanese patients diagnosed with schizophrenia[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Recent GWAS demonstrated an association between candidate genes located at region 6p22.1 and schizophrenia. This region has been reported to house certain candidate SNPs, which may be associated with schizophrenia at HIST1H2BJ, PRSS16, and PGBD1. These genes may presumably be associated with pathophysiology in schizophrenia, namely epigenetics and psychoneuroimmunology. A three-step study was undertaken to focus on these genes with the following aims: (1) whether these genes may be associated in Japanese patients with schizophrenia by performing a 1st stage case-control study (514 cases and 706 controls) using Japanese tagging SNPs; (2) if the genetic regions of interest for the disease from the 1st stage of analyses were found, re-sequencing was performed to search for new mutations; (3) finally, a replication study was undertaken to confirm positive findings from the 1st stage were reconfirmed using a larger number of subjects (2,583 cases and 2,903 controls) during a 2nd stage multicenter replication study in Japan. Genotyping was performed using TaqMan PCR method for the selected nine tagging SNPs. Although three SNPs situated at the 3' side of PGBD1; rs3800324, rs3800327, and rs2142730, and two-window haplotypes between rs3800327 and rs2142730 showed positive associations with schizophrenia, these associations did not have enough power to sustain significance during the 2nd stage replication study. In addition, re-sequencing for exons 5 and 6 situated at this region did not express any new mutations for schizophrenia. Taken together these results indicate that the genes HIST1H2BJ, PRSS16, and PGBD1 were not associated with Japanese patients with schizophrenia.American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B Neuropsychiatric Genetics 06/2012; 159B(4):456-64.

Article: No correlation between plasma NMDA-related glutamatergic amino acid levels and cognitive function in medicated patients with schizophrenia.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Disrupted glutamatergic neurotransmission and cognitive functions are key components in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. Changes in levels of serum/plasma glutamatergic amino acids, such as glutamate, glycine, and L- and D-serine may be possible clinical markers. Following our recent findings that peripheral blood levels of endogenous glycine, alanine, and especially D-serine may reflect the degree/change in symptoms in schizophrenia, here we investigated whether these plasma amino acid levels may also reflect the status of cognitive functions in schizophrenia. One hundred eight Japanese patients with schizophrenia were evaluated with cognitive assessment batteries at the time that plasma glutamatergic amino acid levels were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography. For analyzing cognitive functions, batteries for reflection prefrontal cortex cognitive functions, verbal fluency tests, the Stroop test, and the digit span forward and backward tests were administered. Results failed to show a relationship between any plasma glutamatergic amino acid level and cognitive batteries. Our results suggest that plasma glutamatergic amino acid levels may be significant biological markers that reflect the condition or a dramatic change at the time of testing, especially in severely affected patients, but they do not reflect cognitive function.The International Journal of Psychiatry in Medicine 01/2012; 44(1):17-27.

Article: Early detection of dementia with Lewy bodies in patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment using I-123-MIBG cardiac scintigraphy[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Increasing clinical attention has been focused on cardiac sympathetic denervation for the differential diagnosis of dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) from Alzheimer's disease (AD) with the development of [123I] metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scintigraphy. Decreased MIBG uptake, which reflects cardiac sympathetic denervation, has been detected in DLB, but not in AD. However, the time course of detected cardiac sympathetic degeneration is poorly understood in DLB. Herein, the authors report two patients with a clinical diagnosis of amnestic mild cognitive impairment (MCI) who had cardiac sympathetic denervation, detected by cardiac (123)I-MIBG scintigraphy, without the core clinical features of DLB. One amnestic MCI patient had nocturnal dream enactment behavior, consistent with clinically probable REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD), and converted to probable DLB with the development of recurrent visual hallucination and spontaneous parkinsonism two years after MCI is diagnosed. The other amnestic MCI patient exhibited occipital metabolic reduction on [18F]-fluoro-d-glucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) scan, which is the preferentially affected region in DLB patients, although she had no core or suggestive clinical features of DLB. Both patients had abnormal findings on electrocardiogram at annual health checkups despite having no cardiac-related symptoms. Detailed clinical examinations, including angiography and echocardiogram, revealed no overt etiology, supporting the idea that cardiac sympathetic denervation is due to underlying Lewy body disease. The clinical courses of these patients suggest that (123)I-MIBG cardiac scintigraphy is useful for the detection of DLB in the predementia phase, even before core clinical features appear.Journal of the neurological sciences 11/2011; 315(1-2):115-9.

ABSTRACT: Disrupted glutamatergic neurotransmission may be a pathophysiological feature in the brains from patients with schizophrenia, and glutamatergic amino acids including d-serine have been found to be involved in pathophysiology. Endogenous and exogenous d-serine have shown potential as biological markers for the pathophysiology of schizophrenia and especially as a therapeutic strategy in treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS). This is the first study investigating whether SLC7A10, a d-serine transporter gene, is associated with schizophrenia in Japanese patients.We investigated the association between schizophrenia in Japanese patients with SLC7A10 using six tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Results failed to show any association between Japanese schizophrenia and each individual SNP or with two-, three-, or four-window haplotype analyses. We also investigated whether SLC7A10 contributes to TRS in Japanese participants. Results showed no association.In conclusion, SLC7A10 had no apparent degree of association with schizophrenia as a candidate susceptibility gene in the disease per se.Highlights► SCL7A10, a D-serine transporter might be a susceptibility gene for schizophrenia. ► We examined whether SLC7A10 were related to Japanese schizophrenia. ► SLC7A10 had no association with Japanese patients with schizophrenia.Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology and Biological Psychiatry 08/2011; 35(8):1965-1968.

Article: Association study between Disrupted-in-Schizophrenia-1 (DISC1) and Japanese patients with treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS)[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Treating the 20-30% of patients with schizophrenia whose symptoms are resistant to antipsychotic treatment, a condition known as treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS), can be problematic. Recently, an association between Disrupted-in-Schizophrenia-1 (DISC1), a candidate susceptibility gene for schizophrenia, and TRS was reported. Associations between three missense SNPs, rs3738401 (Q264R), rs6675281 (L607F), and rs821616 (S704C) in DISC1, especially rs3738401, showed strong significance. Thus, the main aim of our current study was to examine if the reported possible functional polymorphisms in DISC1 were related to Japanese TRS. First, DISC1 was re-investigated in 485 Japanese patients with schizophrenia and 660 healthy controls with a case-control study using four candidate SNPs, rs751229, rs3738401, rs821597, and rs821616. DISC1 was not associated with schizophrenia in the Japanese population. Second, we investigated whether these SNPs contributed to TRS in 127 inpatients with schizophrenia (35 patients; TRS and 92 patients; non-TRS). The genotypic distributions of these four SNPs were not significantly different between TRS and non-TRS in either genotypic or recessive models of minor alleles. In addition, clinical variables, such as improvement in clinical symptoms, duration of hospitalization, and total antipsychotics dose amounts, were not different among the genotypes of these SNPs. Taken together, results showed that DISC1 had no apparent degree of association with Japanese patients with schizophrenia as a candidate susceptibility gene for disease per se or TRS.Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology and Biological Psychiatry 03/2011; 35(2):636-9.

ABSTRACT: Schizophrenia is a major psychiatric disorder with complex genetic, environmental, and psychological causes, and oxidative stress may be involved in the pathogenesis of the disease. Glutathione (GSH), one of the main cellular non-protein antioxidants and redox regulators, and altered GSH levels have been reported in various regions in patients with schizophrenia. Three enzymes are responsible for GSH synthesis: glutamate cysteine ligase modifier (GCLM), glutamate cysteine ligase catalytic subunit (GCLC), and glutathione synthetase (GSS). Previously, positive associations between GCLM and schizophrenia were reported in Europeans, but not in the Japanese population. Thus, in this study, we investigated the association between the GSH synthesis genes (GCLM, GCLC, and GSS) and schizophrenia in Japanese individuals. Seventeen single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in GCLM, GCLC, and GSS were genotyped in 358 patients with schizophrenia and in 359 controls. No SNP showed a significant association between their allelic or genotypic frequencies and schizophrenia. Case-control haplotype association analysis using windows of two or three SNP showed no significant associations with schizophrenia. The case-control haplotype analyses based on the ascertained linkage disequilibrium blocks also showed no significant associations in any genes with schizophrenia. The three primary GSH synthesis genes do not have an apparent degree of association with schizophrenia in the Japanese population.Psychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences 02/2011; 65(1):39-46.

Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) is used for treatment of a variety of immunological disorders and in transplantation. As one of its applications in transplantation is the reduction of donor specific antibodies in the circulation, we examined the direct effect of IVIg on essential parameters of human B cell responses in vitro. Purified human B cells, human B cell hybridomas and T cells were cultured in the presence of graded concentrations of IVIg to test its effect on their proliferative capacity. To address the effect of IVIg on immunoglobulin production, we designed a novel technique making use of quantitative polymerase chain reaction to assess IgM and IgG levels. IVIg failed to inhibit proliferation of human B cells and human B cell hybridomas. In contrast, when IVIg was added to T cell cultures, a dose-dependent reduction of the proliferative capacity was observed. IVIg did not affect the levels of IgM and IgG mRNA of activated B cells. Our data show that IVIg is not capable of directly inhibiting key B cell responses. Direct B cell inhibition by IVIg seems therefore unlikely, implying that alteration in humoral immunity by IVIg is due to indirect effects on T cells and/or interactions with circulating antibodies and complement factors.

Handmade Hula Girl Halloween Costume
A hula girl costume is a Halloween favorite, but rather than dressing your little girl in a store-bought outfit, craft an original version to give her a look all her own.
Materials Needed:
- 2 small bowls for mold
- brown Model Magic clay (or other non-toxic, air-dry clay)
- 1 roll green crepe paper
- 1 roll pink crepe paper
- 1 roll white crepe paper
- 1 yard 2-inch-wide elastic
- twine
- kitchen twine
- white thread
- sharp pick
- scissors
- fringe scissors
- hot glue gun and glue sticks
Create Coconut Bra
Roll a fistful of Model Magic into a ball between your palms and press into bowls (Image 1). For each mold, use sharp pick to poke 2 1/4" holes through the clay at 12 o'clock and 9 o'clock (Image 2). Allow to dry overnight or until clay has fully hardened. Carefully remove dried clay from bowls (Image 3). Place "coconuts" side by side and turn so they each have a hole facing in, and a hole on top. Cut twine and slide through inner holes to connect coconuts (Image 4). Cut two more long pieces of twine and string through top holes to serve as halter-top straps.
Cut Elastic and Crepe Paper for Skirt
Measure elastic around child's waist and cut to size (Image 1). Next, cut five to seven 4-1/2-inch-wide strips of crepe paper to the same length as the elastic (Image 2).
Assemble Crepe-Paper Grass Skirt
Use fringe scissors to create fringe down one side of all crepe paper strips (Image 1). Use hot glue gun to attach one strip of fringe to elastic band. Continue gluing strips in a tiered pattern (Image 2). This will be the inside of the grass skirt. With the elastic band facing out, glue ends of skirt together (Image 3). Use glue gun to carefully go through the seams and seal any unglued areas. Allow to dry.
Cut and Fold Crepe Paper for Lei
Cut several 5-by-5-inch squares out of both pink and white crepe paper. Place white square on top of pink square and fold the paper back and forth accordion-style (Image 2). Fold accordion in half lengthwise and crease to determine the center, then unfold. Use scissors to snip a small incision at the center without cutting all the way through (Image 3). Cut a piece of thread and tie it tightly around the folded crepe paper, sliding it into the cut slit at the center (Image 4).
Assemble Crepe Paper Lei
Use scissors to cut along each of the paper's folds being careful not to cut the center's string (Image 1). Next, use scissors to round folded paper's edges (Image 2). Pull petals apart and crease to create a flower blossom (Image 3). Repeat preceding steps to create five flowers then attach them to a long strand of kitchen twine (Image 4). Tie both ends of twine together to form a circular lei.

Silver is 99.9% pure elemental silver.
Sterling Silver is 92.5% silver and 7.5% other metals, usually copper.
What is Coin Silver?
In the US, the coin silver standard was established in the 1820s to be 90% silver and 10% copper and all dimes, quarters, half dollars and dollars until the end of 1964 were made of those metals.
Coin Silver, when used in association with vintage Native American jewelry, is a term used to refer to the alloy that resulted when pre-1965 US silver coins were melted down to reuse in jewelry making.
This 1930's bracelet was hand forged from a coin silver ingot. Coins were melted down and poured into a mold. The bracelet was then forged from the coin silver block or bar.

"I wanted a beach themed invitation for my vow renewals. I did not want a typical beach theme though. This design fit the bill. A floral ocean theme. The beautiful vintage flowers with the ocean is just so unique and beautiful! I love it. The paper quality is gorgeous as well. Love everything about it! Received tons of compliments. delivery could have been a little quicker....."
"Beautiful cards. I got them printed on the shimmer paper and put them into laser cut envelopes I got from another source. So elegant and clean. Staff is AMAZING. Very kind and attentive, everytime I called them, they were very helpful and patient. My invitations arrived 1 week before scheduled delivery. Fast service! For canadian customers, please remember you will be charged the current exchange rate and duties via UPS (a few little surprises I forgot about when paying)!"
"I honestly cannot say enough about the customer service, customization process, and this beautiful invitation! I was SO nervous to order my wedding invitations online, but I will be telling all my friends to order from wedding paper divas! I was able to COMPLETLY customize my invitations and RSVP's to have the exact format and look I was wanting. Upgrading to the thicker paper is completely worth it for the price! I am beyond happy."
"We made several changes. We personalized the color to make it match our accent color, gold. It came out perfect. We added spacing so there was a distinction between the venue and when the wedding is. We changed the reception font so it matches our names. The designer was so easy to work with. I am glad we chose the shimmer paper. It looks so classy. We will be mailing our invites soon."
"Ordering my invitations from Wedding Paper Divas was overall one of the best online shopping experiences I've ever had, and I shop online all the time. I actually ordered 2 different designs for the 2 different wedding celebrations we're having. Both sets required some editing of the standard design, and the process of making all desired changes was quick, seamless, easy. Everything arrived when expected, as expected. Excellent quality. I would recommend Wedding Paper Divas to anyone!"

Rpm are not steady when stopped at a light. - Lastros
Answer 1
replace the fuel filter. If this doesn't cure it, then the fuel pump is going out. With less than a 1/4 tank, the weight of the fuel isn't enough to keep the pump running at the proper pressure. Have the fuel system pressure checked. - techpaddle

We only stayed overnight. Great location. Very nice staff. Spacious room with AC, hot shower and veranda. Wish they had a TV though. Pool wasn't very inviting to look at, but we did an afternoon swim anyway. :) Overall, great value for money.
We stayed at Sayong House for 5 nights. We had a ground floor room that was spacious, the breakfast was lovely, especially the banana pancake and the staff were friendly and very helpful. The amenities were however basic. The weak shower in our bathroom was old and damaged whilst the bed linens smelt stale. Despite all that, It was cheap and cheerful, for the price it was good value, better than living in a hostel. We would stay there again, the location is great. Although right in the centre, the house is situated at the end of an alleyway, away from the constant traffic of scooters and cars and it is 5-10 mins walk to places of interest and there are many good cafes and restaurants just outside the lane.
The hosts at sayong house were very friendly & welcoming on arrival. The rooms are lovely & very spacious. You have breakfast bought to you on your terrace anytime you like which is great.
Great place to stay. We always felt welcome and very nice breakfast.
Sayong House was a great experience in the heart of Fabulous Ubud! Good food, shopping and yoga right just steps away. A few blocks down you can find the Monkey Forrest (ask for Sugi). Madge's brother Gede even picked us up from the airport in DPS and provided transport later that week once we returned from the Gili's on our way to Uluwatu. Breakfast every morning was great on the patio. They had construction going on in adjacent units but the noise didn't start until 9am and watching them construct that beautiful unit was magical and almost made you forget entirely that there was any noise at all. The whole complex is gorgeous and tucked away from the noise of the street. Great massages on the same pathway up to the house if you get caught in some rain...not a bad way to spend and hour or two for $5 massages!!! Restaurant right out front is the best food we've had outside of street markets in Bali. Great place, great staff! A little tip goes a long way too. Will be back!
Nice people, great place, very good breakfast! It is in the middle of Ubud, easy to go everywhere. If you come to Ubud, come to Sayong House!
Clean room, perfect location, good price. Overall, very satisfying stay. Made was also very knowledgeable about the area and arranged additional tours and sightseeing activities.

Transportation tax measure still failing as Oakland Zoo measure loses

I voted YES on measure I and am disappointed it failed. I do not understand why propositions only need a majority to pass but measures require 2/3.
That said, I understand why some people may have voted against measure I. Las Positas accepts students from counties other than Alameda, yet the tax would have been imposed only on Alameda county residents, and some people had issues with that.
Too bad it failed, it would have only been 23 dollars per year.

Actually it would have been $28, not $23.
BUT, you know what they say: "$28 dollars here, $12 dollars there, pretty soon it adds up to real money"
Taxpayers are sick and tired of being nickeled and dimed to death!

Back in November I explained how among the many amazing things Jeremy Lin did last year, the greatest of them all was giving us the gift of knowing how many "dead" Yahoo! fantasy basketball leagues existed. Here's how we knew, before Jeremy Lin became Jeremy Lin he was around 1% owned. After Jeremy Lin became Jeremy Lin his ownership shot up to 92%. 92% was his peak ownership last year and that was his ownership in November, 2012. Using my incredible detective and deductive reasoning skills, circumstantial evidence and what not, I surmised that Jeremy Lin was playing so well and became so famous that he would have been added in at least 99% of all leagues that were active. I gave a 1% cushion figuring that maybe he wasn't grabbed in those highly enjoyable 4 and 6 team leagues. Sooo, 92% was really 99% and add that 1% for super shallow leagues and whallah!, you can reasonably assume that 93% of all Yahoo! leagues were active and 7% were dead. How cool is that?? Other young players li...

The scientific evidence indicates the drug/biologic agent is effective for the off-label indication. The evidence must:
Experimental /Investigational

Use of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor (VEGF) Inhibitors and Other Angiogenesis Inhibitors in Oncology Patients
Definition of Terms
Compendium - A comprehensive listing of FDA approved drugs and biologic agents that includes:
Drug - A substance intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease; a substance (other than food) intended to affect the structure or any function of the body; biological products are included within this definition and are generally covered by the same laws and regulations, but differences exist regarding their manufacturing processes (chemical process versus biological process).

The FDA approved use for drugs/biologic agents are stated in the package insert and available on the FDA website: http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cder/drugsatfda/. Last accessed October, 2014.
Approved indications or the labeled indications for drugs/biologic agents have been proven to be safe and effective by the FDA after the review of adequate and controlled clinical trials. Unapproved or unlabeled uses of drugs include a variety of situations ranging from completely unstudied to thoroughly investigated uses of the drug/biologic agent, yet approval from the FDA has not been requested. Many off-label uses are effective, well documented in the literature, and widely used.
Medical policies are systematically developed guidelines that serve as a resource for Company staff when determining coverage for specific medical procedures, drugs or devices. Coverage for medical services is subject to the limits and conditions of the member benefit plan. Members and their providers should consult the member benefit booklet or contact a customer service representative to determine whether there are any benefit limitations applicable to this service or supply. This medical policy does not apply to Medicare Advantage.
Health plan contracts may address off-label use of drugs/biologic agents and refer to various compendia. Over time, compendia merge, change names or cease to exist. The clinical review team uses compendia endorsed by the Secretary of HHS and CMS to support coverage decisions when the compendia referenced in individual health plans are no longer in business.
A product or group's health plan contract may exclude coverage of a medication or a class of medications, such exclusion would override any review for a medical necessity determination or off-label use of drugs/biologic agents, addressed in a Medical Policy.

The off-label or unapproved use of any drugs/biologic agents dispensed within an approved clinical trial may be covered if the member contract allows for coverage of clinical trials or if the criteria are met as set forth in the Clinical Trials policy. (See Related Policies.)
National Comprehensive Cancer Network Compendium
The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) Drugs and Biologics Compendium is based directly on the NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology. The compendium lists specific panel recommendations for off-label uses of drugs, and each recommendation is supported by a level of evidence category.
The NCCN Categories of Evidence and Consensus used in the recommendations are:
The accepted level of evidence for an off-label clinical indication is Category 1 or 2A; not 2B. (If a provider chooses to use NCCN level 2B evidence in support of a chemotherapeutic drug used for an off-label indication, The Company expects that the provider will make available for review, copies of significant peer-reviewed Phase II or Phase III studies demonstrating such support.)
Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Compendia List
In 2008 CMS developed an annual review process (including criteria for transparency in the selection process) to recognize compendia. CMS may internally generate changes to the list at any time following investigation and public comment. The following are recognized as authoritative CMS compendia at this time:
Prescription Drug
Place of Service
New policy. Replaces BC policy 5.01.01. Coverage remains unchanged.

Every year they run out of wine before the end of the event. Like before 8pm some of the tables were out of wine! How can you tout a Pairings event and never have enough wine? Very crowded as usual. This may be the last year I go.

Feds: Not so fast on health insurance rate hikes
Federal officials are rebutting claims by the state Office of Insurance Regulation that individual health-insurance premiums will soar when the Affordable Care Act more fully takes effect Jan. 1, according to The Miami Herald.
Top OIR officials said this week prices could go up 30 to 40 percent in the individual market. But the Herald reported that the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has not approved health plans for an insurance exchange that will be a key part of offering coverage to Floridians. That process could lead to changes in the plans and the costs.
"We are confident that Florida's premiums will be affordable, and that consumers will have multiple options in a competitive and transparent marketplace," a senior Obama administration official told the newspaper. "When the (insurance exchange) marketplaces open Oct. 1, consumers will be able to shop for the plan that best fits their budget and needs.
Without releasing the premiums, the statistics released Tuesday (by OIR) don't provide consumers with any information on what they will actually pay in the marketplace."
