In addition, electronic systems help in expediting reimbursement of insurance claims. Yet, it is still difficult to perform this task. Currently more than 60 percent of all medical claims in the U.S. are mailed. Submission of paper claims dates back in the U.S. to the early 1950’s. One of the primary reasons for not implementing a new system is the cost of new EMR and ECS systems. In 1990, the federal government mandated that physicians start submitting their claims electronically. This standard only applies to large practitioners and “small” providers can request a waiver from submitting claims electronically. This waiver was established when the government recognized the financial burden new electronic systems could have on small providers. Small providers, however, are losing money due to the inability to access current technology. Mount Brighton is an affordable medical management company that can...

...Truck Max E-Business Marketing Plan Serena S. Joyner MBA- IT Management E-Business QRT2 Task 1 November 1, 2012 E-business is relativity new and refers how companies do business on the internet.

A1. Viability of Product or Service Truck Max is a family business that was established in 1989 by two brothers in Miami, Florida.

...consumer refiguring the points accumulated during time of checkout. The point system can be explained as so for every one dollar spent with the store one point is accumulated for that transaction. The existing information technology (IT) database the company utilizes is identified as a “customer table” that has each customer’s mailing information regarding the demographics for birthdays and anniversaries. This will need to be revamped to include the points accrued per capita for Frequent Shopper’s cumulative transactions. When the frequent shopper has accumulated the specified range of points determined by Kudler, the reward(s) of their choosing can be redeemed at the nearest store location. The IT department is solely responsible for the e-commerce (EC) expansion of the website that needs to include the customers’ purchases. Implementing the development of this expansion will require the installation of any hardware or software required for the integration process of the program.

...An executive summary summarizes, or reviews the main points of, a longer document or report for a reader that does not have time to read the entire report. An effective executive summary analyzes and summarizes the most important points in the paper or report, and will often make a recommendation based on the analysis. Executive summaries are “stand alone” documents that are almost always read independently of the reports they summarize. When preparing to write an executive summary, ask yourself the following questions: * Who will read your executive summary? Sometimes your executive summary may have an “intended” audience: your professor might require you to write it for a CEO, department head, or supervisor, for example. On other assignments, your audience won’t have a specific identity, but always keep in mind that the reader of an executive summary needs to know all of the important information in the main document without reading the actual document. Even if you know that your instructor will be reading everything that you submit, write the executive summary as a “stand alone” document. * What is the main document’s main topic, theme, or idea? Most reports have a “thesis” or central point that they are seeking to communicate. Try to sum this up in two or three sentences. If you are having trouble with this, imagine that someone has asked you, “what’s this report about?” and that you have to explain it in only a few sentences. Once you’re able to say what the main...

...Communication Consultants wants to thank Tate Limited for the opportunity to expand their market presence through the addition of a new electronic commerce unit. Adding an EC unit to an existing business model is a start-up function that is best addressed through the following steps: • Identify the consumer need in the marketplace • Investigate the opportunity • Determine the ability to meet the need Tate Limited wishes to augment its current brick-and-mortar, retail business model with an EC unit. As was addressed earlier with LT1’s assessment of Tate’s design team communication model, your primary competitors (Columbia Sportswear and The North Face) have already addressed the need for collaborative communications within their design teams. It should come as no surprise that Tate Limited is trailing its competitors in overall sales. Product quality is not in question. Tate’s outerwear designs are leading edge and rival anything competitors produce. The problem is in their access to a much larger customer base through their Internet sales site as compared to Tate’s reliance on its retail model alone to drive its revenues. LT1 has identified a consumer need that your competitors do not currently meet – using social networking to increase customer loyalty. The first step in our business plan is to increase your company’s website sophistication from that of an informational site with basic interactive features to a fully interactive site as a precursor to launching a transactional...
