...(HIPAA) is a group of regulations working against abuse and fraud in health insurance and the delivery of health care. HIPAA’s purpose also includes improving the health care system’s effectiveness and efficiency, providing for the continuation of health insurance coverage, and delivering consequences for organizations and individuals who do not comply with HIPAA regulations (Highmark, 2007). Different representatives and agencies can request, with or without patients consent, patients protected health information (PHI). PHI is information that is connected to an individual and includes name, telephone number, address, date of birth, social security number, name of employer, and/or Medicaid identification number (Green and Bowie, 2005). Many situations arise when the government has the legal obligation or right to a patients medical records. For example, state agencies are required to keep records of deaths and births. They must also maintain registries of people who have received a diagnosis of a serious illness like cancer. Disclosures of such information to the government typically do not require an individuals authorization (Highmark, 2007). Medicaid, Medicare veteran’s activities, national security and intelligence activities, the military, armed forces personnel, correctional institutions and presidential protective services do not require authorization--all may receive protected...

...Case Study: Office Depot Leads in Green Hallie Lickteig Case Study: Office Depot Leads in Green Environmental Stewardship Office Depot was one of the first chain stores of its kind to offer transparency of their green goals. For the most part they have stood p to what they aimed, implementing drastic measures to both the way they do business and the products sold. They have met their first goal of giving preference to post-consumer waste products and accomplished their second goal of increasing the scope of recycled products by “launching their Green Book in 2003 and have increased the product categories and green attributes in the book every year since then” (Office Depot). They now offer thousands of products in the post-consumer waste heading as well as selling hundreds of green products from sustainable companies. “In 2009 they recycled 58% of our end-of-life materials in North America” (Office Depot), although numbers are still low an increase of the companies recycling program from 2004 meets their third goal. However, Office Depot still aims to grow programs by changing their procedures such as “implementing a new ‘smallest box’ as well as three 100% recycled and 100% recyclable envelopes for shipping small orders.” (Office Depot) Office Depot has also done well in changing who they do business with meeting their fifth goal of giving preference to products from certified sources and their sixth goal of giving preference to products from companies seeking initiatives...

...Press Release of a diverse culture. The criminal justice system in today’s world is affected by language barriers in communication in their ability to enforce the law properly, by the increasing amounts of people migrating into the United States legal and illegally. The United States government and law enforcement are constantly doing studies and mapping trends of people crossing our borders to migrate to the United States to be able to make a better life for themselves and their families, by the alarming rates of people applying for green cards and citizenships. A Green Card or permanent resident card serves as proof of a person's lawful permanent resident status in the United States. That allows the person with the Green Card to have right to live and work permanently in the United States or even become a American citizen. A person’s valid green card also means that he or she by law is registered in the U.S. in accordance with all United States immigration laws. People who obtain a green card before 1989, the green card use to remain valid permanently. Since 1989 the immigration laws have changed that everyone must renew their green cards every 10 years. The law is also enforced in the same way for people who received their green cards in 1989 or before 1989. The previous versions of green cards are no longer valid everyone is required to renew their green cards every 10 years. (Rachel F., 2011) This is a primary example...

...Releasing Protected Health Information Rebecca Bratcher HCR/210 07/18/12 The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability act of 1996 or HIPAA, was put in place as an attempt to reform health care during the Clinton administration by making it possible for workers, of any profession, to change jobs regardless if the worker, or any member of their family, have a pre-existing medical condition, decreasing paperwork which is associated with the processing of health claims, and by reducing health care abuse and fraud, and by assuring the privacy and security of health information. HIPAA’s standards for privacy of individually identifiable health information or privacy rule includes restrictions which protect the confidentiality and security of health information, and determines a criterion to protect the confidentiality of individually identifiable health information that is maintained or transmitted through electronic means in association with certain administrative and financial transactions such as electronic transfer of health insurance claims. The covered entity, in most cases, is required to obtain an individual’s authorization prior to disclosing any health information. And in most circumstances the patient or a legal representative of the patient controls the disclosure of PHI to any third party. . The act was put into place to improve portability of health insurance coverage, to reduce fraud and abuse in health insurance, reduce the cost and administrative...

...occurs in the stroma, where CO2 is converted to sugar. The dark reaction entails the Calvin Cycle, where CO2 and energy from ATP is utilized to create sugar. (Mader, 2009) 2. What happens to food energy during photosynthesis? During cellular respiration? During photosynthesis, plants are actually making food for themselves by reducing the carbon dioxide in the air to carbohydrates after converting energy from sunlight (solar energy) into chemical energy. Living cells need to go through the process of cellular respiration to get energy from the food they eat in order to move, reproduce and function. Respiration releases the chemical energy stored in glucose, which is used by the cells to carry out their life activities (growing, moving, etc.). The process of cellular respiration is completed within the mitochondria. Chlorophyll is the green pigment found in green plants. Chlorophyll has the ability to trap the sun's radiant energy, and use it to rearrange those carbon dioxide and water molecules into glucose. 3. Why is photosynthesis important to you? It is important to the fact of how it uses solar energy and can provide us a new way of producing safe energy. Also,...

...due to their commitment towards environmental sustainability that touches on every aspect of the hotel business. Delta Greens In 2010 the hotel chain introduced Delta Greens, an initiative that promised to reduce the waste the company creates, the energy that they use, and a promise to rethink everything Delta does to create positive, long-term environmental change. As stated earlier, the program touches on every aspect of the hotel business, from building practices to guest services to how they operate and maintain their properties. The goal of this initiative was simple yet ambitious: to become the leader in environmental sustainability within the Canadian hospitality industry. Each of the 40 different Delta Hotels and Resorts locations take an active role in improving its local community through volunteering and fundraising. Such examples include tree planting, road and park clean ups, donating clothes/materials, and participating in events to raise awareness of various environmental initiatives. I will go further in depth with regards to these examples throughout the report. Through working with Loop Initiatives, which is an independent sustainability consultant, the hotel chain has been able to set 2012 and 2015 targets and developed Delta Green Watch to track progress. Each hotel location has also established green teams to champion green initiatives and monitor progress, subsequently creating a culture of environmental responsibility, which has been planted in...

...Carbon di-oxide is a natural constituent of atmosphere, but now, its concentration is increasing at an alarming rate. According to an estimate, CO2 level is expected to be doubled by 2030 A.D. The term ‘Green House Effect’ is also called as ‘Atmospheric Effect’, ‘Global Warming’ or ‘CO2 Problem’. Human activities are changing the composition as well as behaviour at an unprecedented rate. The pollutants form a wide range of human activities are increasing the global atmospheric concentration of certain heat trapping gases, which act like a blanket, trapping close to the surface that would otherwise escape through the atmosphere to the outer space. This process is known as ‘Green House Effect’. Green House is that body which allows the short wave length incoming solar radiation to come in, but does not allow the long wave outgoing terrestrial infra red radiation to escape. The progressive warming up of the earth’s surface due to blanketing effect of manmade CO 2 in the atmosphere is called ‘Green House Effect’. (Figure 1). The four major green house gases, which cause adverse effects are CO2, CH4, N2O and CFC’s. Among these CO2 is the most common and important green house gas. In addition, ozone and SO2 are also act as serious pollutants in causing global warming. Green House Effect Under normal concentrations of CO2, the temperature of the earth’s surface is maintained by the energy balance of the sun’s rays that strike the planet and the heat is radiated back into the...
