Exp 105 Week 3 Assignment

The provider had an authorization on file approving the dental services advising that they were medically necessary. But when the provider billed, they only advised the services were dental and not medical. Therefore causing the claim to deny. Also, provider didn’t reference their authorization number in box 63 of their claim form which would have voided the claim from denying. This claim will be sent back to be reprocessed. Please advise and ETA of 01/13.

Debt is definitely a downer, but it doesn't have to ruin your dreams of owning a home. It's true that carrying a high debt load can make finding a mortgage more difficult, but it's not impossible. The trick is knowing what lenders look for. A big part of that is your debt-to-income (DTI) ratio. When you understand this ratio, you can learn how to tweak it in ways that make lenders happy. Of course, it's also important to pay the debt you do have on time. If you can, you'll also help yourself by reducing the amount you need to borrow.

I had an intuition that the managers and leaders would score higher than other employees. Three leaders were assessed within our department and their scoring ranged from 99-112. There was an outlier score of 115 from an executive assistant and wondered if they really felt the way they answered or wanted to score better? However, after I thought about it, she is an executive assistant to the Chief Medical Officer who is now an Executive Vice President so she may have a very knowledgeable understanding of our strategic mission. Four employees scored 67-91, who are lower level status employees. According to ISO (n.d.) organizations need to encourage and involve employees because they are a critical to producing and providing value. I believe

I am originally from California I spent more than 15 years of my life there and I still have family living that lives there now. I have lived in a few states Montana, Texas, Utah and Washington of course.

There is a statistical difference in the current level of democracy between North and South Africa.

I would say the top domains of my life right now would include family, faith, friends, and independence. This corresponds very similar to the age group from twenty-five years to thirty-four years. I include faith as one of my values instead of work. I personally believe that work could be included in the same category as independence, because in some way they both relate to maturity throughout a persons life. One thing that I was extremely shocked with about Baltes and his colleague’s domains is that none of them included faith. I believe this is a very important aspect and should be included in every age category. In the oldest category, eighty-five to one hundred and five, there was a category called thinking about life. I believe

In this activity we were given three separate tasks based on one theme. The first activity we were given was to form five questions that we could ask a specific person that we knew. The questions had to be based on a journey that a specific person has either been on or had been taken part in. Once we had formed these questions our second task we had to complete was to interview the specific person that you based your questions on. We had to ask the questions that we created to them and then we had to record their answers. Our third and final activity we had to complete was to turn the interview and answers that we were given into a story based on our subjects journey. We had to change the interview into a story which meant that we had to change the interview into past tense. We also had to put the interview together into sentences rather than questions and answers.

For this week’s discussion board question I decide to go out and try to find details about a person and see if I could get them to let me use their phone. I thought that this would be a challenge and people would be very unlikely to trust a stranger who they didn’t know and expected to be rejected multiple times. I also thought this would be difficult for me because I am a very introverted person and don’t feel comfortable talking to people if I don’t know them. Amazingly, it was very easy to do and on my first try I was able to get someone to let me use their phone.

When I first took the test to see what I scored, I was surprised with many of my results.

Right from the beginning of this course I had a terrible feeling that I was not going to learn what I had to or finish it with a good grade. It all began when I found out that I had to be in contact with an administrator in order to obtain the data needed to complete the final project. Dirksen (2014) wrote that one should never give up, even when everything seems against you. That is exactly what I did. I tried and fortunately, I was able to find help, gain a lot of knowledge from the material I had to read, good advices from my assistant principal, and learn how analyze school data in detail and put together a Data-Driven Decision Making Team together (3D). Also, and probably the most important, I learned to think more like a leader than a teacher.

I am a highly quantitative person and I appreciate when people bring numbers with their analysis. I love to use probabilities to measure the possible outcomes of my decisions, even when they are non-work-related. According to Pythagoras, “All things are numbers” and I completely agree with these words, so before scheduling a meeting, send in advance any quantitative analysis you may have done. Additionally, I am a very visual person and I understand better when I see something, so please try writing down your ideas before scheduling a meeting;

One ethnic group in which I and my family belong to is Norwegian. According to my father I am 50 percent Norwegian and this is very interesting to me. I did not even know this until I asked him about it so I could write this paper. I found a lot of interesting information about Norwegians and how they came to America.

In “A Rounded Version: The Theory of Multiple Intelligences”, Howard Gardner illustrates how there are a variety of intelligences. Gardner starts off with an example how IQ tests may predict achievement in school but may not predict achievement in life. After finding out certain parts of the brain are responsible for certain functions, such as “Broca’s Area” which is responsible for sentence production, Gardner proposes the existence of multiple intelligences. Multiple studies later led him to propose seven distinct intelligences; Musical, bodily-kinesthetic, logical-mathematical, linguistic, spatial, interpersonal, and intrapersonal. Each intelligence has certain classifications. According to Gardner’s classifications, I realized my intelligences are bodily-kinesthetic, logical-mathematical, and intrapersonal.

Howard Gardner introduced the theory of multiple intelligences stating that each person possesses a blend of at least eight different kinds of intelligence: verbal/linguistic, logical/mathematical, visual/spatial, bodily/kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and environmental/naturalistic (Bruno, 2009).
