There are many disorders that can affect the ability to communicate. Communication disorders range from deafness, voice problems caused by cleft lip or palates, stuttering, developmental disabilities and learning disorders. Those who have suffered brain injuries, strokes or who have been diagnosed as autistic may have communication disorders.
Communication disorders can be genetic, a result of birth problems or damages and injuries during child or adulthood. It has been verified that almost 5% of children have communication and speech disorders by the time they reach first grade. With speech, language and communication therapy these problems can be rectified.
Communication Disorders
Communication sciences and disorders take into consideration hearing loss. These losses can be from heredity, disease, traumas and medications. Long term exposure to loud noises and aging are also factors. When your inner ear is damaged, sound waves cannot reach the areas needed for hearing. When hearing is impaired, speech is often a problem.
Voice comes from air passing from through the lungs through your voice box. The muscles in your larynx or the vocal cords make sound. Everyone's voice is unique and when the vocal cords are damaged there will be communication problems. Treatment for voice disorders vary on the cause. You can treat voice problems with therapy, medications and relaxation techniques.
Developmental disabilities might be physical, psychological or from conditions such as Down syndrome and Rett syndrome. These syndromes and problems definitely cause of communion disorders and are usually life-long. They do affect everyday living, but can be helped with long term speech and developmental therapies.
Learning disorders affect how one communicates, remembers and responds. These communion disorders can be listening and paying attention speaking, reading and writing, and doing everyday chores.
Children vary in speech and communication skills. There are milestones that denote what is normal. If a child is not reaching a normal milestone, communion specialists will come into play to provide speech therapy. Determination on what language disorders are causing communication problems will determine the treatments and therapies that children undergo.
A very common communication disorder is stuttering. This is a problem that interrupts the natural movement of speech. Problems find the correct words, finding new words, resaying small parts of words or getting nervous when you try to speak. Blinking rapidly jaw and lip trembling can cause stuttering. If you stutter you may have trouble communicating via speech. Stuttering is commonplace in young children and speech therapy and exercises help alleviate these stuttering symptoms. Very few adults actually stutter once they have been diagnosed and treated as children.
Communication Science and Disorders
Receiving a degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders is to actually facilitate life-long education and learning in normal and disordered communication processes. A degree in communication and disorders is the awareness and appreciation of the communication differences between different cultures. Included is research into expanding knowledge bases of environmental and education factors relating to communication disorders.
Having a degree in communication sciences and disorders gives you the opportunity to provide professional services to schools, medical and rehabilitation faculties and to help in strengthening those who have trouble communicating.

*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 is fondly known as HIPAA. It is a law that was enacted to provide protection and safeguard against the issuance of confidential medical information of individual patients. HIPAA specifies that those who work in the medical industry receive training in the laws and procedures of patient information security. Hospitals, physicians, nurses, researchers, and insurance companies are required to understand and be certified in HIPAA rules and regulations. There are those who work as medical staff, clerks and records clerks who must also be trained. HIPAA training teaches policies, organization, and protections as well as the procedures involved in maintaining patient security and privacy rights.
HIPAA Training
If an organization is deemed a covered entity by the medical community that organization is required to provide HIPAA training to all employees, agents, volunteers, trainees and contractors. As a definition, a covered entity handles, stores, and uses private medical information.
HIPAA training can be obtained in several different ways. Generally HIPAA training is completed at the time of first employment with training sessions conducted throughout the employee's career. Training can be conducted between the execution of agreements, though educational conferences, classes and seminars, on the job training, in newsletter updates, online or several other methods. Whatever way you choose to administer HIPAA training, you will be required to provide employees with certification and keep copies of these certificates on file.
It is possible to incorporate HIPAA training using an agreement entitled a privacy, confidentiality and information security document. This instrument is used at the time employment begins and throughout the employee's career. Policies of the HIPAA laws and of the clinic will be included and the employee will be tested on HIPAA privacy issues. There should also be signatures from both the employee and the employer stating that training has been offered and the employee is certified. If there is a problem with HIPAA policies or a breach of confidentially and security these documents are the proof that the employee and the employer were trained and signed off on the HIPAA laws.
HIPAA educational courses are dependent on how the employer will handle protected health information and how the employees will use this information. The classes discuss procedures and policies for handling information to be in compliance with HIPAA laws. Written procedures are required to be available in the office, and these written documents describe how patient data is handled, what the policies are in case of a breach, and how a security breach will be documented.
Transmitting Patient Information via Computers
A covered entity stores and exchanges protected medical records through its computer system. HIPAA designates procedures that must be followed. For example computers must be password protected, provide limited access, and have additional back up security procedures.
Training regarding the usage of electronic transmission of patient data includes computerized exercises developed to create potential HIPAA violations. The tools are given to the employee to resolve the breach. Exercises are documented and graded. This type of training can be very effective when certifying employees in HIPAA security methods.

Acupuncture is also promising in the treatment of anxiety, sleep disorders, depression and certain types of pain. Acupuncture is relatively safe when administered by qualified practitioners who use sterile needles and a high degree of professionalism and knowledge.
Herbal Medicines
Chinese herbology is the theory of using herbs and combinations to treat diseases, pain and injuries. Herbology uses animal, human, and mineral plus plant products in healing. Chinese herbs or medicinal herbs are standardized formulas. Solutions are formed by combining herbs and other ingredients with binders and formed into small black pills. In years passed, the binder in herbal preparations was honey. Today alcohol infused waters are used to form dough with the powdered ingredients. This dough is cut into small pieces, colored and formed into the small black pills that are used by Chinese herbalists.
Chinese herbal medicines and acupuncture used in conjunction form a complete theory of healing and body balance. Rest assured that your quality Chinese healer or professional acupuncturist uses Chinese healing plus knowledgeable acupuncture techniques. Herbal medications are manufactured in accordance with the international PRC Pharmacopoeia. This Pharmacopoeia is mandated by law to protect patients from harmful or dangerous herbal combinations.

If you are anticipating applying for admission to medical school, one very important part of your portfolio should include clinical observations or shadowing. Volunteering and direct patient care are not interchangeable terms with clinical observations or shadowing. During a shadowing assignment you are observing a healthcare physician or professional provide treatment, diagnosis and care to patients in a clinic. Clinic situations might include hospital, rehabilitation and long-term care facilities, private practice and/or therapy clinics. Shadowing provides you, the aspiring medical student, the opportunity to watch day-to-day duties involved in a given health situation.
Many health care programs expect and may require that if you are considering going into the medical field you utilize clinical observation before you apply to medical school. Most medical school programs do not specifically request shadowing as an admission requirement, but it is strongly recommended that that students shadow a medical professional.
When to Shadow
After your freshman or sophomore years of pre-med studies you should arrange shadowing experiences during your semester and summer breaks. Shadowing opportunities will also help you establish time management and good study habits as you plan your time to include work, study and medical experiences.
Shadowing Experiences
Clinical observations are the best method to determine if the daily tasks and responsibilities of the medical field are for you. You can determine if you have the attitude, aptitude and dedication to attend medical school and focus on the joys of helping others in clinical and field settings.
Shadowing experiences will help you build a portfolio of credibility. You will able to show admission committees that you have researched the medical field, garnered valuable experience, and actually discussed medicine as a career with specialists and practicing physicians. Added benefits may include letters of recommendation, admission interviews, and help with your own personal statements.
If able, shadow a variety of clinic and medical settings. You should shadow in-patient or hospital situations, out- patient or clinic settings as wells as ICU, ER (emergency room), family and pediatric practices. These types of observation experiences will give you a rounded experience to determine of what type of medical practice you want to specialize.
Do keep a journal of your shadowing experiences. You may want to ask the attending physician if it is okay to bring pad and pencil in to observations. This is the perfect method to learn more about the medial field and to prove to admissions boards that you actually attending shadowing session and have a high interest in medical procedures.
HIPAA Requirements
Be aware of HIPAA laws since you may be privy to discussions with patients that are highly confidential. To ensure that you are following the rules of the observation setting take an online course to understand how, when and why in regards to patient confidentiality and record security. HIPAA classes include health care regulations, privacy rules, security rules and implementation as well as enforcement and penalties for breaches of confidentiality.
Undergoing HIPAA training will prove to both the shadowing clinic and the medical school admission board you dedication to the medical profession.

The Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act of 1996 is a public law passed by Congress. The basics of HIPPA are to improve the portability plus the continuity of health insurance coverage. This includes both the individual market and in a group situation.
姫ortability as definite in HIPAA laws is the ability for those with preexisting condition to get health coverage without lapse in benefits. There were group health plans years ago that denied or limited coverage if a new employee had a condition that was being treated under an old plant. HIPAA does not allow this to happen.
Specifically if you have suffered from medicals conditions for many years, but have not been treated in the last six months, you cannot be denied insurance coverage for that condition. If you have, however had medical advice, care or diagnosis with the past six months then you have preexisting condition exclusions.
Do note that although there may be preexisting condition exclusions, you will receive full coverage through your employers in regards to other health issues.
菱IPAA adds protections and does make it harder to have your health benefits taken away, but HIPAA does have limitations. HIPAA does not require that you are offered health coverage thought your employer. HIPAA also does not guarantee that the conditions you are now experiencing or have had in the past are covered by your new employer痴 health plans. HIPAA does not stop an employer from invoking the preexisting condition exclusion period.
The portability portion of the HIPAA law does not allow employers to stop coverage for a pregnancy even if there was no coverage prior to enrolling in the new health insurance plan. Furthermore conditions present in a child under 18 or a newborn cannot be excluded from the plan if that child is enrolled in the new insurance plan within 30 days. HIPAA portability is designed to ensure that children do not have significant breaks in insurance coverage.
Generic information cannot be excluded. If a female employee has the gene indicating a risk for breast cancer, that employee cannot be denied insurance coverage on the assumption that she might contract breast cancer.
HIPAA if family members are enrolled in a company plan, these family members have the exact same protection under HIPAA laws as does the employee.
The portability laws under HIPAA were designed to combat fraud, abuse as well as waste in the health insurance industry. The administrative burdens of health care as well as reducing the costs are goals of HIPAA. By standardizing the exchange of electronic data for financial and administrative transactions, HIPAA has also created a system to protect personal health records.
To comply with HIPAA regulations health care professionals as business associates must undergo HIPAA training. Included in The Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act of 1996 are the health care regulations, privacy rules as well as security rules. You also need to be aware of HIPAA implementation, how portability applies and have an understanding of enforcement rules. It is also wise to understand the penalties for disallowing the rules and procedures.

One very important part of any premed experience and study is shadowing a physician as they make their rounds in hospital, clinical and office settings. Shadowing is not explicitly required, but it is advised to shadow a practicing physician long before applying to medical school and preferable during premed studies.
Shadowing is a volunteer experience and gives premed students valuable information on becoming a doctor or a medical professional. Shadowing can provide information as to whether or not medicine is a good fit for a career, gives students the opportunity to speak credibly about medical experiences on applications, and gives the student the opportunity to decide on a specialty.
Getting the Most out of Shadowing
•First find a physician who is willing to have you shadow them as they go about their daily duties. Leverage your network to find the perfect physician, or just cold call medical offices for a shadowing opportunity. Most physicians will be very accommodating.
•Shadowing a specific medical specialty can be rewarding, but many medical schools prefer that you do have some experience in family practice or surgery. These are well rounded practices and give you an idea of what you are up against when you enter medical school.
•Shadowing physicians in a medical school setting allows you to be with medical students, residents and the supervising physician. You shadowing will be seen as a regular activity instead of a somewhat invasive practice.
•When shadowing, ensure that you are professional in your attire. Wear business casual clothes and do act professional. There have been situations where a shadowing student dressed casually and was asked to leave and not come back. This definitely will not bode well for you attempts to get into a medical school.
•Do ask questions of the supervising physician. Questions can prove that you are interested. Hold your questions, however until the end of a patient exam or at the end of the day. A shadowing experience should be quiet and contained. You are not there to interrupt exams or procedures with questions. If the attending physicians wishes to discuss the significance of the procedures, that is an added benefit.
•Shadowing premeds can often be brought into more exciting and eventful clinical services. The physician you are shadowing just let you observe an unusual surgery case or watch a significant procedure.
•Familiarize yourself with the "downsides" of medicine. Go to clinics that are routine and shadow the staff as they take care of everyday problems. This will prove to the medical school entry board that you are aware that medicine is not all glamour and emergencies; it is basically everyday exams and treatments.
•If you request a shadowing assignment, be committed. Be there on time as if you were an employee, stay professional and communicate your interest in medicine.
There are no shadowing required hours; the hours spent in shadowing will prove to medical school admitting boards that you are aware of the hours, duties, and specializations of the medicine field.

Article Title: What Is Destination Marketing?

*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
I ran across a respected website where they were talking about "Destination Marketing" where by implementing a model where the website that a person lands on when clicking through a search result becomes the end of their search - in other words, a resource that fits all of their needs and is essentially the first and last website they will need to surf to in order to get their questions answered and their problems solved.
In the past it has been all about attaining the top 10 positions on generalized keywords and keyword phrases in a particular niche. While the content was there, it wasn't the total package because webmasters and companies were more interested in getting on the first page of the major search engines rather than wondering what would happen once that desired flood of traffic arrived.
One thing I realized was that our firm had always built Destination pages and used the idea of destination marketing to not only get our clients great results in the search engines, but also have the pages where visitors arrived ready to be a one-stop solution package that the company could offer as both a resource and a platform for selling products and services.
Getting high rankings we have long known is only half of the equation. In order to attain and maintain high rankings as well as the tops in customer satisfaction required that we develop marketing strategies that took into account both search engine optimization for landing pages always delivered with a focus on providing exactly what the arriving and prospective customer needs.
In a way, the definition of Destination Search Engine Marketing is a desired destination point. In order to attain this status every marketing campaign needs to achieve top rankings and go that much further to meet the needs and desires of a specific target audience. When a site becomes a resource that people tell others about and point and return to, it has become a destination website. In a way, it is like having a resource booklet with links, sources, materials, products and services that are aligned with the search engine message and always in total sync with why a customer clicked on the SERPs results.
When one looks at SEO, rankings are at the top. Getting good ranking is what it's all about. Knowing that is the start and not the end all to search engine marketing, many companies are now going beyond the traditional search engine optimization techniques offering clients the ability to create exceptional webpages that are tightly focussed and designed to satisfy arriving web traffic.
By taking the focus off of just getting high rankings in the search engines and looking and dealing with the total presentation, this new term Destination Marketing is in many instances like our firm already at the forefront and on the cutting edge of this marketplace.
Having a name for this methodology is great and the article went further to back up what we've said all along. Destination SEM is developing a website that is a cut above the mediocre SEO only sites. It attains high search engine rankings because it is not only optimized but highly deserving of those search engine results. When visitors arrive at websites they will always feel that they have arrived at a site with the complete answer to their problems.
Clients, as a result, can offer products and services, rapidly build and maintain credibility and increase ROI at faster rates. Going at it from the idea that by building an incredibly good and useful site and as a result gaining high rankings is a concept that is building in popularity and one that we've used successfully for our clients for quite a while.
The big picture of utilizing a destination marketing approach comes in the form of additional exposure and positive company branding that a client will receive when they shift paradigms from getting high search engine rankings alone. Not only will traffic arriving be more satisfied, it is a known fact that people drive the Internet.
One satisfied customer will tell another one who will tell another. The flipside to that which many firms have suffered is that if they are only optimized to get a visitor to their site, their credibility will suffer and trust will decrease based upon what the site offers to an arriving web surfer. What that means is that conversion rates and sales profits will decrease according to the level of professionalism, friendliness and amount of useful information provided when visitors arrive.
Destination marketing is about asking yourself a question every time you start out to build a page or pages for your site: Do you simply want an average/mediocre site that only half delivers? Or, do you want a site that goes viral, where the amount of good, useful information transforms it into a resource that everyone is looking for, will bookmark and return to again and again.
Answering that question is what makes the difference between having a good site and a great site. Destination marketing is all about making fantastic, useful resource sites that are authorities in specific niches.

Most maid services take their job very seriously and communication is the key to their business. Viable house cleaning services do not hire independent contractors; all maids employed by the company. Maids receive liability and health insurance, and are bonded and insured against theft and damages.
Maid services guarantee that their employees are thorough when they clean. Maids are trained, supervised and do undergo criminal background and drug checks before they step inside your home. Maid servicing companies know their employees and they trust them to clean their own homes.
If you have a problem you can call the customer service departments and lodge your complaints. On the riverside side, most maid services request that you provide feedback on the cleaning services. One cleaning service states, "We have an obsessive desire to please. This ensures that our cleaning is consistent and high quality."
One question that is often asked, "Do you have a rotation system?" In other words, is only one part of the house cleaned one week and another part cleaned the next week? That may be how you clean, but professional maid services clean in-depth and thoroughly on every visit. Cleaning services can always been customized. If you need heavy duty scrubbing and organizing, just let your maid services know and professional maids will do their utmost to meet your expectations.
When hiring a maid service, ask for an estimate. Most estimates will be complete and detailed. If you desire you can have the cleaning service manager come to your home to help give you a comprehensive and thorough cleaning estimate. Know that the price you are quoted and contracted will be the price you pay. There will never be pricing surprise.
Guarantees
If there is something missed in the cleaning of your home and you are not happy with your service, just notify your maid services within 24 hours of the cleaning and the team will come back to correct the oversight. There will be no charge. Processional maid services give their customers 100% guarantee that the work will be done professionally and completely. The mission statement of most maid services is, "If you are not satisfied we are not satisfied."
Ask for references. The best guarantee of service comes from former and present customers. Ask for testimonials from clients or look on the website of you cleaning service for references.
Make sure your maid service is licensed. If you hire an unlicensed service you may be charged with being the employer. This means that you will be liable for the taxes, legal issues and liabilities that come with an unlicensed maid services. There are many house cleaning services, make sure you ask to see a valid license.
If you hire a licensed company you can know that they carry industrial liability insurances. Ask to see the business license and bond to ensure that everything is above board. If your maid service is honest and professional they will readily have these documents available.

The benefits of acupuncture practices and procedures are no longer a mystery. This ancient profession has recently started gaining the spotlight, as both the general public and the medical world have started to acknowledge its merits. However, not only can acupuncture be a great therapeutic method, it can also become a career choice. Read below to find out what you need to know about acupuncture programs.
•Until the mid 1970s, acupuncture was not a legal practice within the United States. However, nowadays this has all changed, and in less than 4 decades, acupuncture has become a strong and respected industry. Laws and bills governing the practice of acupuncture are passed every year and legislation regarding it is a continuous state of evolution and change. Because of this, if you are interested in becoming an acupuncturist you should first begin by studying the state and national legislation on the matter.
•Your next step involves choosing one of the numerous acupuncture programs that are available out there. Most cities in the US have a college offering this type of programs so you have plenty of options to choose from. However, do make sure that the institution you end up attending is accredited. There is a list of accredited institutions available online which you can easily check at any time you wish to. The list has a total of 50 schools offering acupuncture programs, so finding one near you should not be that hard.
•Requirements for attending acupuncture programs can vary quite a lot, depending on the institution that is offering the training. Some may require participants to have a 4 year college degree. However, the majority of acupuncture schools do not set such high requirements. The vast majority will only ask you for proof that you have attended a couple of courses, such as science, psychology, and physiology.
•You can enroll in an acupuncture program anytime you wish to, as there is no age limit. So, if you are in your middle-age years and decide it is time for a career change, you are more than free to pursue this endeavor.
•The duration of acupuncture programs can also vary significantly. Some colleges offer programs that last from 4 to 6 years, and which are usually less intense and can be attended part-time. Other colleges offer a more intense, full-time program that lasts only three years. If you already have a day job but would still like to attend an acupuncture program, you can look for an institution that offers evening classes.
•You can also take the theoretical training via an online course. However, you will still be required to find centers where you can practice your skills live.
Acupuncture has been around for centuries, but it has recently become a practice anyone can easily engage in, thanks to the introduction of acupuncture programs. There are many schools and training institutions that offer this type of classes, so look around for a while; you will surely find exactly what you need.

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) governs how medical information should be handled and issues requirements for all employers whose line of business involves the use, storage, transmission, or sending of health records. Employers who fall under HIPAA regulations have to take certain steps in order to ensure their compliance. Read below to find out what are the HIPAA training requirements for employers.
Privacy Requirements
Employers are required to provide staff members with HIPAA training that makes them aware of the current laws and regulation regarding the privacy of medical information. The training should inform employees what type of medical information requires authorization forms in order for it to be released, as well as health care data which does not require these forms. Some states have their own particular laws when it comes to health privacy and in this case, employers have to make sure that the HIPAA training also contains information about these specific state laws.
Following the description of what an authorization form is and how it should be used, HIPAA training should present the penalties and fees which are currently enforced for non-compliance.
Specific Training Requirements
Any new employee has to be instructed in HIPAA matters as soon as possible since the date they start work for the institution. In general, the period of time since they start until they are enrolled in a training program should not be longer than 60 days. The method of training chosen is entirely up to the employer.
Additionally, employers are required to provide employees with a renewed HIPAA training course any time a change in policy occurs. The employer should make sure that he has a written copy of the procedures taught during HIPAA training and he should distribute this copy to all employees, which they will be able to reference at any time.
Patient Authorization Requirements
All employers who fall under HIPAA regulations are required to provide their staff members with appropriate authorization forms which allow the disclosure of personal health information. These forms are standard for any institution covered by HIPAA, and include details such as the patient's name, the organization's name, the type of information that will be released, the purposes for which it will be released, who will be granted access to it, as well as any time constraints regarding how long the information is available for disclosure.
Privacy Notice Requirements
The employer is required to set in motion of series of privacy policies. Privacy policies then have to be open to public access. The employer is further obliged to make any patients with whom he comes into contact aware of the privacy policies, during the first interaction. The employer will have to show proof that he has made the patient aware of the policies, by making them sign a notice.
These are the main requirements any employer who handles medical information should adhere to. Following the pointers provided above is a necessary step in ensuring compliance and any health care employer should give them proper consideration.

The vast majority of people working in the health care system or who are in charge with handling medical information are required to undergo some sort of HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) training. Basic HIPAA courses ensure that the participants are aware of the minimum requirements they are obliged to comply with. However, there also more advanced courses which are available. Read below to find out everything you need to know about advanced HIPAA training.
柊dvanced HIPAA training courses are suitable especially for people working in management and supervising positions, because this type of professionals often require a more detailed knowledge and understanding of HIPAA principles and regulations. Nonetheless, this training module is open for anyone who wishes to attend, without discrimination or restrictions.
柊part from providing general information regarding HIPAA standards, authorization forms used, medical data which can be disclosed and which cannot, advanced training course also deal with the Privacy and the Security rules.
謬he Privacy rule deals with requirements that have to be met to ensure that any medical information which should not be disclosed remains private. Participants in an advanced HIPAA training course will be introduced to the penalties and consequences that arise as a result of unauthorized disclosures of medical information.
謬he Security rule regulates the way in which medical information has to be stored and how it can be transmitted. The Security rule applies to both paper written information and electronic health records. The transmission of health information refers both to the actual sending of the data, via fax, e-mail, mail post, and so on, as well as to information which is disclosed orally during conversations, either face to face or via the telephone. Company policies and practices have to be reviewed and adapted to meet these requirements.
筆anagers and supervisors will also learn the steps they have to take to ensure that their organization is in compliance. They will learn how to establish an efficient monitoring and regulating system within their institution that will be in charge of supervising how employees meet compliance requirements. Participants will be introduced to notions such as the importance of conducting ongoing inspections, enforcing penalties, and procedure reviewing requirements.
柊dvanced HIPAA training also underlines the importance of conducting regular retraining sessions for all employees, as a means to ensure that everyone is one track with any requirements. Following the completion of the course, participants will receive a certificate that attests their knowledge.
Advanced HIPAA training is the most complex course a health care professional can attend. This course might require more involvement and cost more than a standard HIPAA training module, but it will ensure that you will be aware of all the issues regarding the privacy and security of health information. While advanced training is a requirement only for a small portion of health care professionals, anyone involved in the industry can benefit greatly from attending it, as it is one of the most comprehensive courses available on the matter.

The Department of Health and Human Sciences first issued the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 or HIPAA to set national standards for the protection of patient health information. This law was designed to protect and control how private health information is used. The Office for Civil Rights has the responsibility to implement and enforce privacy rules that will include voluntary compliance with financial penalties.
Goals of HIPAA
An individuals' health information is highly private. There should be no dissemination of information to outside parties unless written permission is expressively given by the patient. This rule strives to provide a balance that permits information to be sent to necessary parties while at the same time promoting protection and security of the public's health and safety. The rule is flexible yet comprehensive and gives specific details as to what information can be sent to third parties.
HIPAA requires that entities (those who use health information) comply with the applicable requirements and rules. The summary of the HIPAA law is not a source of legal information, but the entire law or act needs to be read and studies to ensure that specific laws are followed.
HIPAA Coverage
HIPAA rules cover health plans or insurance companies and clearinghouses that move heath information to different third party providers. HIPAA definitely applies to the health care provider and other providers to meet the information needed treat a patient. Take note that HIPAA privacy coverage also covers health plans that are implemented by employment, government and church sponsored plans.
All individual and group plans that pay the cost of medical care are regulated by HIPAA rules and procedures. These include health and dental as well as vision and prescription drugs. Those organizations that are HMO, Medicare and Medicaid are also liable. In other words, every entity that handles private medical information is subject to HIPAA.
HIPAA is designed to protect individual medical records when entities use electronic technology to transmit medical records. Healthcare clearinghouses are those businesses that process nonstandard information and they are highly regulated under HIPAA rules. Clearinghouses are billing services, community health management systems and value-added systems that provide services to hospitals and clinics.
One very important medical entity is psychotherapy. The notes taken by a health care provider in regards to mental health are highly regulated. All professional documenting or analyzing during conversations with patients, family or groups are private and not to be disseminated unless specific permission is granted. All medications and monitoring plus counseling sessions and their start and stop times, the modalities of treatments that are furnished plus the results of clinical tests and the summary are not to be given to third parties. The only exception to this rule may be in the case of court ordered release to substantial a legal matter.
HIPAA does retain the right to modify the existing rules and procedures at any given time. There are updates issued on a regular basis. Currently there are a number of provisions of the HITECH Act that are designed to strengthen security issues for health information that are established in HIPAA.

Grand Canyon float tours wend their way down the calmest, most scenic sections of the Colorado River. No whitewater rapids, so seniors and kids 4 and up can participate.
You can get on one of these tours in Tusayan, Arizona and Las Vegas, Nevada. In case you haven't heard of Tusayan, it's the site of Grand Canyon National Park Airport (GCA) and it's just outside the South Rim's main gates. Grand Canyon raft tours take off every morning and last all day.
Las Vegas Raft Trips
The float trip from Vegas is extremely popular and would be blast on the Fourth of July. The tour starts with a thrilling helicopter descent from the top of the rim to the floor of the canyon. You'll have 30 minutes or so to explore on foot before flying back to the top and boarding a bus bound for the base of Hoover Dam.
There you get on a safe motorized raft and begin the relaxing eleven-mile float along the Colorado River. You will see spectacular sights along the way, including Black Canyon, before you arrive at Willow Beach. You might see some bighorn sheep along the way!
Tusayan Float Trips
You can choose from two float tours at Tusayan, a basic tour, and a deluxe version.
The basic version starts out with a motor coach ride from the airport in Tusayan to the Glen Canyon Dam. Your float trip begins there and takes you 15 miles down the Colorado River in a motorized raft. The float rips ends at Lee's Ferry.
If you choose the deluxe tour, you begin with an airplane flight to Page, Arizona. Then you'll head to Antelope Canyon (where the famous ?Slot Canyons? are located) on an off-road 4x4 Jeep trip. Make sure to bring your camera or smart phone because you'll want some photos of this unusual place.
After the Jeep adventure, you return to Page and get onboard the raft. The basic and deluxe tours both end with a bus ride back to the airport in Tusayan.
All-Inclusive Rafting Trips
Grand Canyon raft tours come with everything you need such as live vests, river guide, lunch, and water. They also include your transportation and taxes and fees. The tour operators think of every thing so you can think about what you want to bring and wear.
It is a good idea to wear protective clothing such as a brimmed hat, shorts, cotton shirt with long sleeves, river sandals, and sunglasses. Also, bring along a camera, charged smart phone, lip balm, sunscreen, and a change of clothes in case you decide to go swimming. It is also a good idea to bring some extra water and salty snacks to tide you over.
In Review
Rafting trips in the Grand Canyon begin in Las Vegas or Tusayan, Arizona. If you are leaving from Vegas, consider the fun tour that starts off with the thrilling helicopter ride to the bottom of the canyon. People at the South Rim usually focus on trips that originate there.
One of these all-day tours would be awesome for July 4th, but book well in advance. It will be busy at the canyon then. You should try to get your seats at least a week ahead of time, earlier if you can.
Also, be sure to get your seats online. You will find the cheapest prices on the tour company's website. Complete your purchase there and you'll snag a super Internet discount. If you don't do that, you will have to pay a lot more for your tour.

When the time comes to hire movers, you don't want to choose just any moving company. There may be dozens of moving companies serving your area, but chances are only a select few really offer the service you need and provide the services you are looking for. Of course, finding a moving company that offers the services you need at a price you can afford can seem like a daunting challenge, but if you know what to look for when shopping around for movers, you will be certain to find just the right mover.
The first thing you need to do before looking for moving companies is to determine exactly what you need moved. Knowing this will help the movers you contact provide a more accurate estimate. For this reason, it would also serve you well to eliminate any items you no longer want or need, as this will not only help in lowering your overall moving costs, but will also reduce clutter in your new home. Another point to consider is whether the upcoming move may entail having to pack and load electronics, musical instruments, fine art, or other items that may require special care. If so, the movers will need to know ahead of time so they can properly assess the scope of the job before giving you a firm quote.
As you begin your search for moving companies, be sure that you check with the Better Business Bureau (BBB). The BBB rates each company based on the quality of its products and services, how many reports the company has received, and how well the business has handled complaints. An A+ rating is the highest a business can receive from the BBB.
In addition to checking with the BBB, you will want to consult Angie's List to see what other consumers are saying. Angie's List is a subscription-only website that prohibits businesses from rating themselves, meaning the reviews you will see on Angie's List are honest-to-goodness, bias-free reviews. If, however, you prefer not to pay for a subscription service, then you can peruse the many free review sites available, such as Yelp, Google Reviews, Citysearch, and Yahoo! Local Listings. No matter what company you hire, be sure to look for a ProMover designation from the American Moving and Storage Association.
Once you have narrowed down the list of moving companies to a few candidates, be sure to get all estimates done in-home and provided in writing. There are various types of estimates, including "guaranteed not to exceed" estimates and quotes based on how much your items weigh. Also be sure to ask about costs associated with moving heavy furnishings, moving items up or down stairs, and moving during weekends or holidays – all things that can potentially become a "hidden charge" during a move.
Finally, ensure that the movers are insured and that your items will also be covered by insurance. Many moving companies offer flexible insurance plans and can roll the cost of this coverage into your estimate.

Article Title: Tips To Naturally Prepare Your Body For Surgery

If you know that you will be going into surgery and have plenty of time to prepare your body, you should do everything possible to get your body ready for the trauma. The general rule of thumb is that the two weeks prior to surgery are the prime time to get your body in proper condition to have a successful surgery. Taking this time to physically and mentally prepare your body for surgery will help not just with calming your nerves prior to surgery, but also with decreasing your recovery time once the operation is complete. Although practicing the following tips will not guarantee that you have a successful surgery, it will ensure that you are preparing your body in a positive way prior to your procedure.
Avoid Alcohol, Nicotine, and Caffeine
It's worth noting that alcohol, nicotine, and caffeine should be avoided for the two weeks leading up to a surgery. While some people argue that withdrawal from these products can cause stress and tension for the individual, there are other ways to relieve this tension that aren't as detrimental to your health as smoking a cigarette or drinking alcohol. Smoking will prevent your blood from carrying the high amounts of oxygen you need to help tissues heal, along with causing other damaging long-term effects on your body.
Drinking alcohol is very dangerous for surgeries because alcohol mixed with anesthetic drugs or sedatives can make you extremely sick. Plus, alcohol dehydrates the body, which delays the natural healing process. Avoiding caffeine will help your body stay hydrated and keep your digestive track calm and heart rate down to normal levels. Caffeine boosts your heart rate, which can be a dangerous effect when going into surgery.
Stay Hydrated and Boost Your Diet
During any recovery process, it's important to keep your body as hydrated as possible. Fluids like water, coconut water, and sports drinks provide fluid and electrolytes that help your body begin the healing process. While most doctors ask you not to eat or drink in the hours leading up to surgery, getting your body on a normal hydration routine prior to that will help with healing during your recovery. Many pain medications dehydrate the body, so having your body hydrated will help prevent headaches, diarrhea, and general weakness.
There are some essential vitamins and minerals you can ingest to boost your immune system and help your body through the surgery process. Eating fresh fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins, like chicken and fish, are always good choices for your diet. In the weeks before surgery, focus on these power foods, and make sure you're ingesting higher levels of Vitamins A and C to help your immune system.
Practice Meditation or Yoga
Just as important to physical preparation for surgery is mental preparation. Being patient through your surgery and recovery process can dramatically improve your psychological outlook on your situation. By practicing mediation or yoga during the weeks leading up to your surgery, you can prepare yourself mentally for the challenges that lie ahead. Work on breathing exercises that allow you to focus your mind entirely on the intake of oxygen into your body. The more in-touch with your body you can become, the better, and meditation practices like breathing exercises are great ways to focus your energy. Plus, during the weeks or months of your recovery, you may find that meditation helps to keep you focused on your goals. Beginning this mental training now may lead to physical benefits for your healing in the future.

Article Title: Preparing Your Home And Life For Back Surgery And Your Recovery

Because back surgery requires an extensive recovery time and limited mobility, it's important to physically prepare your home and make necessary changes to your lifestyle in order to ensure that your recovery is as comfortable and positive as possible. While there are new technologies that can help reduce recovery times for back surgery, there are still some major adjustments you'll have to make. First, almost any doctor is going to ask you to avoid bending at the waist or stretching the back muscles. Second, you'll have to make sure you are always properly seated or lying down in order to ease your discomfort and allow your back to recover. And finally, you'll want to eliminate any stress, both physically and mentally, to help speed up the recovery process. By following these tips, you'll help to make the entire back surgery process a little more comfortable.
Clear Your Schedule
Back surgery recovery times can vary from two weeks to over a year, and it's important to recognize the fact that set-backs, although undesirable, can easily occur when it comes to the delicate recovery of your back. The best way to avoid compounding stress in your life is to clear your schedule and allow yourself ample time to get healthy again. This does not mean just taking some time off work (though this will be necessary for your recovery). If you are planning to have back surgery, you should not plan any vacations, events, or major deadlines for over a year. The last thing you need to do is to push yourself to recover in time for a beach vacation or a big sales meeting. Your back is going to heal at its own pace.
Pushing yourself through the recovery process, or over-exerting yourself once the healing process has begun may result in not allowing for your back to completely heal. By clearing your schedule of all responsibilities, you'll be able to focus on your recovery and allow your back to heal at its natural pace. It'll be easy to schedule a vacation later on, and your bosses will certainly allow you to come back to work early if you've recuperated quicker than expected. So, clear your schedule, and allow the natural healing process to run its full course.
Make Yourself and Your Home as Comfortable as Possible
During your recovery period, you're going to want your surroundings to provide the comfort you need to fully recover from your surgery. This means making sure you have plenty of comfortable clothing to wear, like slip-on shoes, a nice robe, button-up pajamas, comfortable t-shirts, and versatile pants or shorts. You probably won't be going out too much, so you can keep your lounge wear as relaxed as possible. Also, you'll want to make sure you have various places you can sit or lie during your recovery. It's no secret that being confined to your home can get a little boring, so set up a few different places in your home where you will be comfortable throughout the day.
Delegate Responsibilities
When you're out of action, the daily things you do that usually go unnoticed will become very apparent. So, if you normally do the laundry for your family, cut the grass outside, empty the dishwasher, or water the plants, you'll need to delegate these responsibilities to family members, friends, or hired help. Make a list of your recurring tasks, and begin thinking about the things you'll be unable to do during your recovery. By delegating responsibilities to others ahead of time, you won't become stressed out by your inability to fulfill your daily routine, and your family will thank you for thinking everything through ahead of time.

Therapy, both mental and physical, can be some of the most rewarding, and difficult, work that exists in the healthcare field. While seeing someone recover from a problem can be very satisfying work, therapists also have to work with patients who may be in chronic physical pain or dealing with mental health issues that are completely incapacitating, which can be challenging work. For medical professionals interested in therapy, there are a few different routes they may take, which can all lead to satisfying and successful careers.
Psychotherapy
The goal of psychotherapy usually involves bringing an individual to a better understanding of his or her personal well-being in relation to others. This does not mean creating comparisons to others, but rather discovering more about the self and how and why individuals act and feel the way they do. As a path toward self-discovery, psychotherapy usually involves a difficult, but often rewarding, journey through the human psyche. Most psychotherapists have completed some level of graduate work and usually are trained in a clinical setting. Once professionally trained, psychotherapists will help patients by employing a variety of different learning techniques focused on strengthening communication, recognizing behavioral triggers, and building relationships to help patients increase their self-awareness in their interactions with others.
Physical Therapy
Physical therapists primarily help people regain the mobility they have lost due to serious medical problems like strokes, heart attacks, accidents, and traumatic injuries. Becoming a physical therapist involves a high level of education both on the anatomy of the body and in the development of treatment plans. Every patient in physical therapy will have a unique treatment plan based on their body's capabilities. A physical therapist must have the knowledge to put together a treatment plan, the patience to make sure everything stays on track, and the people skills to help the patients through their recovery. While this can be a highly rewarding profession, physical therapists need to stay confident in their work and in the patient, as results can sometimes be discouraging for both parties. For physical therapists in the sports industry, there may be additional stress in trying to meet player return dates.
Occupational Therapy
If you're looking for a profession that blends therapy from a psychological and physical perspective, then a career as an occupational therapist may be the right fit for you. Occupational therapists spend most of their time helping patients relearn and perform the basic tasks necessary for living independently. These tasks may require mental or physical training, or a combination of both. Occupational therapists can be found at rehabilitation centers, helping older adults recover from strokes, surgeries, or other medical ailments. There is also a need for occupational therapists around young children who are overcoming learning disabilities or abnormal behavioral maturation. Some corporations hire occupational therapists as well to work with employees to develop strategies for safer work environments. Regardless of the field in which these healthcare professionals enter, the job requires a creative and patient personality.
Recreational Therapy
Along the same lines of occupational therapy, recreational therapy is based around helping patients who are disabled or have some type of illness or disease. Recreational therapists usually develop long-term treatment plans that focus on a variety of therapies, including music, art, dance, and outings that allow the patient or patients to improve their lives by pursuing creative outlets. Most recreational therapists can be found in hospitals, rehabilitation clinics, or private facilities, like recovery centers or psychiatric hospitals. Like most professions in therapy, recreational therapists need to have high levels of patience, but will gain satisfaction from seeing their patients improve their lives as a result of their therapy.

If you've always been interested in a healthcare profession, there's no better time to pursue your ideal career than right now. As the largest growing industry in our economy, the healthcare field remains an excellent option for anyone looking for a lucrative and rewarding career. Whether you're hoping to become a doctor or you're interested in medical sales, there are plenty of directions in which you can pursue a healthcare profession.
Direct Patient Care
Working directly with patients is probably the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about the healthcare profession. In order to pursue this path, professionals must achieve high levels of education and receive multiple certifications. Becoming a Doctor of Medicine is one of the most challenging academic pursuits that exist. In order to become a doctor, you must first complete a four-year degree from an accredited university. While degrees in chemistry, biology, and other science-related fields are most popular, you can actually receive your undergraduate degree in almost any subject. Once you've earned a bachelor's degree, you must then apply and gain acceptance into a medical school. There, you'll face a four-year program with the first two years comprised mostly of coursework, and the last two focused on rotations in a clinical setting. After the medical degree has been earned, physicians in the United States are required to complete at least one internship, a year of residency, and additional specialty training.
The financial and academic challenges of medical school may deter some individuals from working toward the degree. Becoming a physician is not your only option, however, if you would like to pursue a career in direct patient care. There are multiple other opportunities that don't require as much education or take as large of a financial commitment as medical school. Some of the other professions in direct patient care include:
•Nursing
•Physical Therapy
•Physician Assistant
•Nurse Practitioner
•Certified Nursing Assistant
•And more
Healthcare Administration
For natural leaders who have a passion for the medical industry, a profession in healthcare administration may be the perfect fit. Though most colleges and universities offer a bachelor's degree in healthcare administration, almost all professionals have their master's degrees in the field as well. As a healthcare administrator, there are two main directions in which you may pursue a career. As a generalist, you can oversee the operations of an entire facility. This usually requires coordinating meetings, safety updates, and new projects. Specialists, on the other hand, are responsible for specific hospital operations, like budgeting, marketing, human resources, accounting, finance, and more.
Public Health
Another great way to become involved in the healthcare field is to work for a non-profit or government-run public health agency. Public health education is a popular career path that involves educating everyone from children and young adults to middle-aged or even elderly adults throughout the country. Case managers, another popular position, are more specialized public health professionals who assist at-need clients with their medical schedules, living expenses, and mental health. Most public health professionals eventually end up specializing their education by receiving master's degrees in public health or social work.
Medical Sales
If you have excellent communication skills and a vibrant personality, you may be interested in medical sales. This profession requires extremely specified knowledge of technical products and an understanding of their medical uses. This is a great field for those who want to be involved in the healthcare field, but aren't as interested in direct patient care. Medical sales usually involves holding meetings or attending conferences with doctors, nurses, hospital administrators, and physicians at private practices in order to pitch a product. Anyone interested in this field should be prepared to travel, as many products can be sold on a national, or even international, level.

If you're looking to get into a healthcare profession, but aren't interested in the intense educational path and financial burden involved with becoming a surgeon or pediatrician, there are a number of non-traditional directions from which you can choose. The advantages of having a non-traditional healthcare profession include having the ability to make your own schedule and the freedom to not be restrained by hospital or industry codes and practices. However, with this freedom, comes a greater risk, as most of these professionals are privately insured. Though there is a greater risk involved, you may find that an alternative healthcare career path is both highly rewarding and extremely interesting.
Chiropractic Care
Chiropractors are becoming increasingly popular as the Baby Boomer generation begins to age. As a conservative, non-invasive treatment for back pain, chiropractors are usually the first stop for those suffering from chronic back pain. The idea of back surgery is simply too daunting for many individuals, and chiropractors offer healing that can drastically improve a person's ailment without any incisions, time off work, or drastic changes to their lifestyle. The philosophy behind chiropractic care is that the body has incredible self-healing powers that can be triggered by correcting specific joints that are out of place in the spine and neck, a process called spinal manipulation. By correcting these issues, along with offering a patient advice for adjusting their diet, posture, and exercise routines, chiropractors can help patients ease their chronic pain.
Most chiropractic schools are three-to-four year programs and require at least an associate's degree from an accredited college or university. However, once you've graduated from school, you can immediately begin practicing, with a majority of chiropractors choosing to open their own practice. Having your own practice allows for more freedom, but chiropractors usually have to work around their patients' busy schedules, so traditional workday hours are mostly out of the question. Also, beginning a private practice takes a substantial amount of initial capital and usually comes with a high insurance premium. However, if you can find an investor or find a way to put up some initial capital, owning a chiropractic facility can lead to a very lucrative career.
Massage Therapy
Along the same lines of chiropractic care, massage therapy is another non-invasive, conservative treatment for those suffering from back, neck, and shoulder pain. However, there is much less education and financial commitment required for massage therapists. Most massage therapy programs only require a high school diploma for admittance, and, depending on the state, you may not need certification to begin practicing. Many massage therapists start out as part-time employees of a spa or existing massage therapy clinic, and may work at multiple locations in order to work full-time. Once an individual has established themselves in the industry, they may choose to invest in opening their own spa or therapy clinic.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is probably considered the most alternative of treatments for various ailments in the body, and becoming an acupuncturist usually does not follow a traditional career path either. In the United States, there are a limited number of accredited schools that teach acupuncture and meet national standards for education. Once enrolled, individuals face a pretty intense three-to-four year program that trains students not just in the Chinese tradition from which acupuncture was founded, but also in the anatomy of the human body. Acupuncture is focused on locating precise points on the human body to stimulate while creating a deeply relaxing atmosphere. Like most alternative careers in the healthcare industry, acupuncturists face the challenge of either opening their own practice or finding their niche within another facility. However, once established, acupuncturists tend to enjoy their careers, as their profession requires little physical exertion.

Article Title: Fisker Automotive's Downfall and the Implications For Modern Technological Investments

*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
In what has become a relatively politically charged narrative, Fisker Automotive's downfall tells a story not just of what the future of hybrid technology means for the auto industry, but also about the government's role in contributing to the development of modern technology. The whole problematic venture began when Fisker's stated goal to create luxury hybrid vehicles interested the Department of Energy.
After being convinced by Fisker's sales projections that it was a solid investment, the Department of Energy provided Fisker with a $529 million credit line for the production of their first electric/gas hybrid model, the Karma. However, despite Fisker's initial claim to sell 100,000 vehicles in their first year, they actually ended up only selling 2,000 vehicles, earning approximately %2 of their initial projected sales. As a result, the company is in financial turmoil, and US taxpayers have lost their government's investment in the project, opening up a variety of questions about the government's role in both the auto industry and in developing modern technology.
Reviving an Industry vs. Private Investment
In 2009, President Obama famously extended emergency loans to the floundering American auto industry, and helped to not only revive the industry, but also aid in the production of more fuel-efficient vehicles. This type of government investment appears to be the model that Fisker Automotive was looking to follow. A government investment, which would be paid back once the company was booming, seemed like a safe investment for both parties, as it had proven success in the 2009 recovery of the American auto industry. However, there is one major difference between what happened in 2009 and in Fisker's current situation.
When the 2009 investment was made, a major American industry, upon which hundreds of thousands of jobs and billions of dollars in revenue relied, was at stake. The government invested in an industry that had a proven track record of strong profit margins and high sales. The Department of Energy's investment in Fisker Automotive was not a proven industry, as Fisker was a brand new company that relied upon innovative technologies that had no proven track record. Once Fisker failed to meet its sales goals, the government's unwillingness to dump more money into a risky venture showed their reluctance to pursue private investments, which is a drastically different scenario than how the revival of the American auto industry played out.
How Fisker Failed
Fisker has stated that many of their problems resulted from trying to push forward and meet deadlines that had previously been agreed upon with the Department of Energy. These pushes for faster results led to simple problems in their prototype vehicles, like faulty wiring and unreliable batteries. Plus, pressure from the government led Fisker into contracts with suppliers and manufacturers that were unreliable or offered inferior products.
Regardless of political opinions on the situation, Fisker's story shows one fact: In a capitalist market, private investment is king. If Fisker's main investor had been a private entity, rather than the Department of Energy, the losses would have been grounds for investors to reconsider their production and sales models, and then reinvest and reinvent their company. However, because the government lost their initial investment, they refused to see the losses as a set-back and rather pulled the plug on the company.
How Fisker's Story Affects the Development of Modern Technology
When it comes to creating innovative technologies in the American economy, private investment is a necessary component for a company to reach success. This is not to say that the government will never successfully invest in a product, but it does mean that this type of investment has more limitations than those put on private investors. Limitations are just that, a limit placed on a company's ability to grow.
Take, for example, the medical technology field. Despite recent government intervention with health insurance policies, the field is entirely dominated by private investment. Some of the most innovative technologies, including surgical lasers, imaging devices, and robotic surgical tools have developed from private investment. Just like medical technology, the innovative technology needed to develop hybrid vehicles should return to being entirely funded by private investment in order to successfully create and produce new products.
