Overview: Learn how to improve your healthcare compliance program by using requirements found in corporate integrity agreements (CIAs) issued by the OIG. By proactively incorporating various features of CIAs, healthcare providers of all types can be better assured of meeting compliance standards. While there are many different types of healthcare compliance issues, probably the area of most concern is that of properly filing claims and receiving appropriate reimbursement. The OIG has issued various types of guidance including Federal Register entries, fraud alerts, and issues as listed in the OIG Work Plans. By providing such guidance, the OIG has given healthcare providers notice so that there can be no defense of not knowing about an issue. By organizing your compliance program to detect and then correcting various types of issues is a major objective of having a compliance program. Understanding systematic processes for improving your healthcare compliance program using CIA requirements can forestall possible criminal and civil monetary penalties. The hundreds of CIAs that have been developed when the OIG detects fraudulent activities can be used as a guide for developing and improving healthcare compliance programs for all types of healthcare providers. The process of statistical extrapolation is used by the OIG when conducting studies in order to determine recoupment amounts. Statistical extrapolation can also be used by healthcare providers when determining possible overpayments. However, the proper use of statistical extrapolation is a formal and complex mathematical process that must be properly applied. The OIG CIAs provide another resource for healthcare providers to study, understand, and then apply as appropriate. Why should you Attend: What are the OIG Corporate Integrity Agreements (CIAs)? Why does the OIG issue CIAs? Can I use general requirements from CIA to avoid monetary penalties or even avoid going to jail? Can any healthcare provider use

Overview: FDA 7348.811 section 1 states, "Regardless of the type of system used by the clinical site, the regulatory requirements for clinical data do not change whether clinical data are captured on paper, electronically, or using a hybrid system." What type of system is best for your program and investigator capabilities? The wrong choice yields inspectional non compliance. The right choice of electronic data capture, direct data entry, and data management depends on a sponsor assessment of the systems and procedures at the investigator site as compliant with FDA inspectional requirements. Additional source documentation procedures (origination, authorization, and signature) are required at the investigator site to address the electronic data capture process. It is these three FDA mandated inspectional criteria, applicable to every electronic data element, that generate most of the significant inspectional noncompliant findings. Some data elements are more likely to be associated with the findings of noncompliance than others. It is in fact difficult to determine which data requires or does not require original source documentation and what defines "original source documentation". Why should you attend: Investigators commonly assume that the new guidance and regulations reduce the need for source documentation in clinical trials. In fact, there are new procedural documents relevant to the electronic source documents and direct data entry that are required to comply with the current inspectional standards and the final guidance. Sponsor due diligence in choosing, training, and monitoring investigator sites to enable the use of compliant electronic data capture is required. Basic knowledge of part 11 and GCP requirements will be helpful in attending this advanced webinar. The focus will be on the additional FDA inspectional requirements for electronic data capture, and the impact of using electronic data capture on the seven FDA inspectional priority objectives

Overview: In 2013, The US Department of Health and Human Services made major changes to rules implementing The Health Insurance and Portability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) and Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act of 2003 (HITECH). Among the many areas impacted by these rules (billing, marketing, research, IT security, etc.) is fund raising. The amendments significantly modify the methods and practice that hospitals, their institutionally related foundations, and other healthcare charities may or must employ when using ANY patient or client information for fund raising. The webinar will cover how to effectively implement the fund raising regulations in a manner that increases both opportunities for philanthropic support and compliant implementation of the new mandates. The rules include specific operational requirements, some of which prohibit protocols that were required under the original HIPAA regulations. The "magic words" mandated by HIPPA-related regulations changed in multiple areas. The webinar will cover all of these areas to ensure your organization is both legally compliant and operationally effective. The types of information that may be used for fund raising changed significantly. This presents numerous substantial fund raising opportunities, as well as challenges on the use and storage of such information. Among other areas to be presented are The required method for individuals to opt-out of receiving fund raising communication The methods of informing patients and clients of their right to opt-out from receiving fund raising communication The broadly expanded types of fund raising communication subject to opt-out rights How providers, hospital, and related fund raising foundation apply an opt-out election by an individual The type of patient and client information that health charities may use for fund raising The contents of provider's Notice of Privacy Practice How clinicians can assist both their patients/clients and the

Workplace Safety Regulations : Workplace safety is a matter of grave importance to any organization. Ensuring the safety of workers is a primary goal of most countries, no matter which kind of political system or setup they have. This is because almost no workplace is free from some or another kind of hazard. These workplaces could be as varied as hospitals, construction sites, engineering plants or agriculture and many more. Governments the world over consider it their duty to provide a safe workplace. Workplace safety can concern any hazard that can happen to either the physical or emotional wellbeing of a worker. National and global workplace safety regulations : Workplace safety regulations are legally stipulated measures that governments require organizations in both the private and public sector to implement in order to ensure safety at the workplace. Almost all countries have their own set of workplace safety regulations. These regulations work in tandem with a few global management systems with the aim of enhancing safety standards at the workplace. A notable global organization that is at the forefront of legislating workplace safety regulations is the International Labor Organization (ILO). These ILO-mandated legislations are meant to supplement the national workplace safety regulations that most countries have. This is done in the belief that many a time, these individual legislations may not be sufficient in themselves. Workplace safety regulations in the US : Like most other countries, the US too has its own set of Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) standards. Owing their origins to the Richard Nixon era in late 1970; workplace safety regulations in the US concretized under what is collectively called the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). The major feature of OSHA is that apart from promulgating workplace safety regulations across nearly all conceivable sectors and types of industries; OSHA also has a provision for whistleblow

Heavy duty wheelchair can either be manually-operated or motorized, each with its own pros and cons. A manual heavy-duty wheelchair gives full control of motion to the user, but the added weight from the reinforcements makes pushing or propelling the wheelchair much harder than normal. A motorized heavy duty wheelchair offers a solution to this dilemma, but is often more expensive and harder to maintain than a manual wheelchair. Some designs offer a combination of both, with a small motor assisting those pushing the wheelchair. The proper choice between types of Heavy Duty wheelchair depends largely on the user's expected level of activity. Heavy duty wheelchairs typically have larger seats than conventional wheelchairs. The frames of these wheelchairs can be made from several different reinforced metals, although a titanium wheelchair is often the most popular choice. The wheels themselves are made of thicker rubber than normal, preventing any possible failure due to the greater amount of weight supported. Most makes of heavy duty wheelchairs fold like regular wheelchairs, making storage relatively easy despite the wheelchair increased size.

A 3D cell culture is basically an artificial environment where biological cells are allowed to grow or interact naturally in all three dimensions, similar to how they do in vivo. Unlike 2D cultures, a 3D culture allows living cells in vitro to adopt all possible growth directions, much like how they would in the real world. This is ideal for treating diseases that involve multiple organ systems. In medicine, this is known as organo-evolution. Here are some advantages of 3D cell cultures: Unlike before, it is now possible to culture different kinds of cells such as blood, sperm, and stem cells in vitro. This was made possible by the introduction of new equipment called the culture chamber, which is used to manipulate cells in culture. Before, only two types of cells were possible to culture, monoclonal (which are typically the type found in bodily tissue) and plating (which are typically found in muscle and blood cells). In addition, the 3D cell culture can be controlled, making it more useful. For instance, researchers can use different types of media on different cells at the same time; this can help them investigate cell culture in more detail.

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia is a cancerous disease in which cancer cells begin to multiply in the lymph cells. CLL is aggressive cancer that invades the lymphatic system and attacks healthy cells of the immune system. It typically affects the lymph nodes and T cells, although it can also affect any other cells in the human body. The combination of chemotherapy is aimed at destroying cancer cells while at the same time allowing the body's immune system to restore the damaged cells. This allows for a more rapid response to the infection and better overall outcomes. As a result of this combination, chemotherapy is often used to treat several types of cancer at one time. It has been very successful in achieving results against most types of cancer. The targeted drugs are given to make the cancer cells unable to multiply and thus stop their growth. Increasing prevalence of leukemia is expected to drive growth of the global chronic lymphocytic leukemia therapeutics market during the forecast period. According to the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common type of leukemia in adults aged 19 years and above with 37% of cases. According to the same source, around 21,040 new cases and 4,060 deaths are expected to occur in 2020 due to CLL in the U.S. Furthermore, according to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLC), in 2020, around 60,530 people are expected to be diagnosed with leukemia in the U.S. Such a high prevalence of CLL and leukemia has increased the demand for necessary therapeutics such as chemotherapy.

An N95 mask is a commonly-used, shortened name for N95 respirators, which is actually a particulate-filter respirator that meting the U.S. national institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) standards. Respirators are designed to protect you from inhaling harmful dust particles and fumes. But when it comes to choosing a respirator for use in the home or on the job, there are certain features you need to look for. The first and most important feature to look for is that it is safe for you to wear. Respirators are generally divided into two types. The first is the full-face respirator, while the other type is the full-body respirators. While there are some differences between these two types of respirators, both have the same main functions. High prevalence of infectious diseases is expected to propel growth of the global N95 grade medical protective masks market over the forecast period. For instance, according to the World Health Organization, in 2018, India reported around 2.69 million cases of tuberculosis. Emergence of Covid-19 is expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities for players in the global N95 grade medical protective masks market. For instance, globally, as of 3:33pm CET, 17 November 2020, there have been 54,771,888 confirmed cases of COVID-19, including 1,324,249 deaths, reported to the World Health Organization.

Myelofibrosis Treatment includes medications and surgery. There are drugs and medicines which are used to cure myelofibrosis. Myelofibrosis is a muscle disease and various types of myelofibrosis treatment are available in the market to cure this condition. The muscle disease is caused due to myelodysplasia, a genetically determined trait that prevents the muscle from growing properly. Myelofibrosis is also known as spider veins, lying in regions close to the skin, like the armpits, groin, elbows, and knees. Myelofibrosis is the most common type of connective tissue disease. These medicines are generally used to control and stop the progress of the disease, after which, they suppress the activity of the immune system. Various types of steroids are used as medicines for myelofibrosis, to control the activity of the immune system and thereby stop the disease in its tracks. One of the most common drugs for myelofibrosis treatment is prednisone, which is generally used along with steroids. However, to treat spider veins and not myelofibrosis, a compound called Finasteride is used. The most important part of myelofibrosis treatment is a regular check-up, as early as 18 months of the disease a doctor can monitor the progress of the disease. Myelofibrosis treatment also includes physical therapy and other treatments to improve the symptoms of myelofibrosis. The main driving factor influencing the growth of the myelofibrosis treatment market is the increasing prevalence of myelofibrosis in emerging economies. For instance, according to Gleneagles Global Hospitals, the yearly incidence rate of myelofibrosis in India is 0.3 to 1.5 cases per 100,000 individuals. Most of the times these cases goes unnoticed since it is sometimes asymptomatic or less severe. Moreover, the market is estimated to grow owing to a large number of R&D investments, a large cluster of patients suffering from myelofibrosis, and better reimbursement policies.

High purity alumina (HPA) is a high-purity form of aluminum oxide. It is majorly used in production of synthetic sapphire, LED lighting, lithium ion batteries, plasma display screen, photovoltaic cells, sodium lamps, phosphor, and optical lenses. It is homogeneous crystal in structure and is obtained by aluminum alkoxide hydrolysis process. There are three grades of alumina. One of these is called "high purity alumina", and it can be manufactured using different methods. In fact, the most commonly used alumina is the "super alumina". This is produced in a high pressure process using steam under a pressure of 2.7 bar. This type of alumina is extremely tough as it is made from pure alumina powder. Another type of alumina is "low-pressure alumina and "high-pressure alumina". This type is very strong and requires high pressure in order to get its properties. It is usually formed in a separate high pressure furnace. It is very strong and can withstand corrosion and rust. There are many benefits of alumina. It is very suitable for a wide range of applications. It can withstand corrosion and is very easy to clean and maintain. All these factors make alumina a perfect choice for a wide range of industrial uses. Read more @ https://coherentmarketinsights-cmi.blogspot.com/2020/12/increasing-adoption-of-smartphones-to.html
