Lifevest Case Study

The LifeVest is a defibrillator that is placed in a vest that patient is able to wear under his cloth. The vest helps save and individual in cardiac arrest. My patient was going to use this device because of his cardiac condition and due to his recent MI; these factors put him at a higher risk of cardiac arrest. It was amazing to watch how all the technology in the vest can save someone’s life. Watching my patient through his vest fitting and teaching was the highlight of the day. It was the first time that I

Effective February 7, 2013, SeaBright Insurance Company (“Seabright”), a Seattle-based insurance company specializing in workers compensation, entered into run-off. In 2012, Enstar Group Limited (“Enstar”), a run-off specialist, purchased SeaBright. SeaBright continues to manage existing claims but no longer writes new or renewal business, which means that premium activity has slowed down. In 2015, a major change occurred when all of SeaBright’s net liabilities (i.e. loss reserves associated with its prior workers comp business) were shifted to an Enstar affiliate, Clarendon National Insurance Company, through a reinsurance agreement. Circumstances that led the company to run-off: SeaBright was placed into run-off driven by weakened underwriting performance associated with reserve strengthening actions for accident years 2007 through 2009, primarily related to increasing medical cost trends. Additionally, SeaBright was facing marketplace challenges associated with its geographic and coverage lines expansion. Seabright has had to deal with significant pressure from its workers comp book developing adversely year-over-year and having to liquidate investments to satisfy claims and expenses. The reinsurance contract with Clarendon did provide major relief but SeaBright still remains a going concern and without premiums coming in and asset base rapidly shrinking, its solvency status as an insurance company remains questionable. The key now is to track the level of credit risk

Please confirm. I don’t want to assume what the analyst mean by “Please provide exception memo to override denial.” Claim#132587959900 will apply additional money when refreshed. However, COB/OHI is preventing the money from paying out. But, Yolanda thinks that this note maybe the result of an untrained representative working Iowa appeals. An CLIA will look in the system like the screen shoot below. Could you please advise why the representative was not able to reprocess the appeal?

The timeline to appeal is inconsistently stated in two different sections of the WellCare Medicaid Provider Manual. In Section 5, the manual states that “claim payment disputes must be submitted to WellCare in writing within one year of the date of the denial of the EOP.” In Section 7, the Manual states that “Providers have 90 calendar days from the original utilization management or claim denial to file a provider appeal.” Important to both of these provisions is that the appeal time period does not commence until an EOP or claim denial is received by the Hospital. In this case, the only written notice the Hospital appears to have received from WellCare discussing its adjustment of the claim is the April 25, 2013 ERA. The ERA, however, showed no denied charges, but instead purported (incorrectly) to pay the entire claim at the contract rate. This is consistent with the verbal information provided by WellCare’s representatives that the claim had not been denied. Accordingly, the appeal time period never started to run because no claim denial was sent to the Hospital, and as such, the Hospital’s appeals were timely

John Erichsen in 1842 first discovered defibrillation and he found this through a dog whose heart went into fibrillation when its coronary artery was closed off (Boston Scientific, 2016). In Switzerland, 1899, Prevost and Battelli uncovered that in dogs, small electric shocks could prompt ventricular fibrillation and found that larger charges would reverse the condition (Hugo Delgado, 2013). In the 1920s devices called electrocardiograms were invented by Dr Carl J to measure the electrical activity of the heart and help identify the different stages of ventricular fibrillation (Boston Scientific, 2016). A new technique was discovered after that to overcome fibrillation in humans in 1930s by Claude Schaeffer Beck (Boston Scientific, 2016). The new technique would assist in treating heart failure in which piece of chest muscle was implanted into the sac that surrounds the heart (pericardium) but this technique is no longer used (Boston Scientific, 2016). A procedure called cardio pericardial pexy was also created by Claude Beck in 1935 in which a

Seattle, August 23rd – Yesterday noon, on a boring Thursday after work city break, police arrived in downtown Seattle to restrain order. What they saw was beyond their understanding!
