Impulse

Impulse

According to Newton’s second law of motion, the rate of change of the momentum of an object is the net external force acting on it. The total change in momentum between two timepoints thus depends on both the external force acting on it and the time over which it acts. Describing this mathematically, the total change of an object’s motion is proportional to the force vector and the time over which it is applied. This product is called impulse.
Additionally, it can be shown that the total...

Gain

Gain

Gain and phase shift are properties of linear circuits that describe the effect a circuit has on a sinusoidal input voltage or current. The circuit's behavior that contains reactive elements will depend on the frequency of the input sinusoid. As a result, it is observed that the gain and phase shift will all be frequency functions.
Gain:
Suppose Vin is the input and Vout is the output signal to a circuit.

Robbers Cave

Robbers Cave

During the 1950s, the landmark Robbers Cave experiment demonstrated that when groups must compete with one another, intergroup conflict, hostility, and even violence may result. At the Oklahoman summer camp, two troops of boys—termed the Rattlers and the Eagles—took part in a week-long tournament. During this time, their negativity culminated in derogatory name-calling, fistfights, and even vandalism and destruction of property. However, this work also revealed that such tension could be...

Beats

Beats

The study of music provides many examples of the superposition of waves and the constructive and destructive interference that occurs. Very few examples of music being performed consist of a single source playing a single frequency for an extended period of time. A single frequency of sound for an extended period might be monotonous to the point of irritation, similar to the unwanted drone of an aircraft engine or a loud fan. Music is pleasant and exciting due to mixing the changing frequencies...

The Ras Gene

The Ras Gene

The Ras-gene-encoded proteins are regulators of signaling pathways controlling cell proliferation, differentiation, or cell survival. The Ras-gene family in humans constitutes three primary members—the HRas, NRas, and KRas. These genes code for four functionally distinct yet closely related proteins—the HRas, NRas, KRas4A, and KRas4B. The involvement of mutant Ras genes in human cancer was first discovered in 1982 and is among the most common causes of human tumorigenesis.
Ras is a superfamily...

Retrieval

Retrieval

Retrieval is the process of getting information out of memory storage and back into conscious awareness. This ability is essential for daily tasks like brushing hair and teeth, driving to work, and performing job duties. Retrieval occurs in three ways: recall, recognition, and relearning.
Recall involves accessing information without cues, such as during an essay test, where individuals must retrieve facts and concepts from memory unaided. Another example is remembering the name of a colleague...

Summary

Hospitals investing in health IT for meaningful use may face financial penalties. Multi-campus hospitals under one provider number could receive less Medicare funding than expected.

Area of Science:

Health Informatics
Healthcare Policy
Health IT

Background:

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) finalized rules for meaningful use of electronic health records (EHRs).
Hospitals are accelerating investments in health IT systems to comply with these new regulations.
The meaningful use program aims to improve healthcare quality, safety, and efficiency through technology adoption.

Purpose of the Study:

To analyze the financial implications of the meaningful use final rules on hospitals.
To identify potential disparities in Medicare reimbursement for hospitals with different organizational structures.
To highlight a perceived flaw in the reimbursement methodology impacting multi-campus hospitals.

Main Methods:

Analysis of the final rules for meaningful use criteria.

Comparison of Medicare reimbursement models for single-provider-number, multi-campus hospitals versus multiple-hospital systems.

Financial impact assessment based on reported reimbursement differences.

Main Results:

Hospitals with multiple campuses operating under a single Medicare provider number may experience reduced funding.
This reimbursement structure could disadvantage these institutions compared to comparable multi-hospital systems.
Specific financial impacts, such as a projected $25 million "hit" for Montefiore, were cited.

Conclusions:

The current meaningful use reimbursement structure may inadvertently penalize certain hospital configurations.
Policy adjustments may be needed to ensure equitable funding for all types of healthcare systems investing in health IT.
Further evaluation of the financial impact on diverse hospital models is warranted.
