My name is Christy Hitt. I am a mother of two wonderful daughters who are now grown, married and have children of their own, and yes that makes me a grandmother. I travel with my husband as his job requires him to do. I work with a physician on a remote desktop and have access to the business computer wherever I go. I have been working in the medical field for fourteen years now. The medical field is rapidly changing in every aspect of the word. It is getting harder and more stressful to try and figure out all the changes on my own. I talked with my husband about possibly me going back to school to obtain more knowledge in medical billing and coding. My husband thought this would be a great idea and backed me 100 percent. The only worry was how I was going to handle my fulltime job, moving every three to six months to a different state, taking care of our home in Florida and school work. My husband assured me that we would figure out a way that we could accomplish this and make time for me to study. So, I started my online studies with Penn Foster to obtain my Associates degree in Healthcare Management. I wake up around 4:30 in the morning to help my husband get ready for his day, which would include getting the coffee going, making lunch and of course trying to wake him up; the man sleeps like a rock. I then have to get myself ready for my day. As I am booting up my computer, my Internet goes out, how convenient. Now, I have to call the cable company to come out as soon as possible to get it fixed, as my work and school both require me to be connected to an Internet service. I start by calling the patients and reminding them about their appointments for the following day; this can be time consuming and often takes a good part of the day as we see approximately fifty patients a day. I can see the insurance aging is getting behind and that is something I have to work on today, as this is how we get paid. I also have to do re-credentialing for our Medicaid and…

A. Firms with lower effective tax rates were found to have a higher proportion of leased debt to total assets than did firms with higher effective tax rates. Some lease agreements are in-substance long-term installment purchases of assets that have been structured to gain tax or other benefits to the parties. Since leases may take different forms, it is necessary to examine the underlying nature of the original transaction to determine the appropriate method of accounting for these agreements. That is, they should be reported in a manner that describes the intent of the lessor and lessee rather than the form of the agreement.…

In the 2012 Acura NSX Super Bowl Commercial - featuring Jerry Seinfeld, the main objective is to persuade the audience, which is anyone who wants the best new thing around, to buy the new Acura NSX.

11. A federal agency is experimenting with using treated sewage sludge as fertilizer. To do this, it has recruited families in low-income areas to let the agency spread the sludge on their yards. The family gets a newly seeded lawn out of it, and the agency finds out how the sludge works as fertilizer. But the agency has never done any studies on whether the sludge (and its heavy metal content) might damage the health of the low-income family. What knowledge goal would critical theorists argue has been overlooked in this ongoing experiment?…

This is especially emphasized in the fourth grade, where the fall in success is the most obvious. Teachers attribute that to the development phase that children are in. Moreover, they say it is due to more difficult curriculum in the fourth grade.…

A modern hospital or clinic is filled with high-tech equipment, designed to support patients ' vital systems or provide physicians with diagnostic imaging. Installing, maintaining, calibrating, upgrading and repairing this equipment is the work of medical equipment technicians, also called biomedical equipment technicians or biomedical engineering technologists.
