Abstract: A method that includes storing claim records for patients. Each record stores (a) personal information associated with one of the patients, and (b) claim information received from a claim data provider. The claim information stored in some of the records was submitted to different insurance companies. The claim information stored in some of the records was received from different claim data providers. A member identifier is automatically generated for each of the records as a function of a portion of the personal information stored in the record, and the record is associated with the member identifier. A member identifier is automatically generated as a function of a portion of personal information associated with a particular patient. A record associated with the same member identifier generated for the particular patient is identified and a portion of the claim information stored in the identified record is forwarded to a recipient insurance company.

Abstract: A method for in-field improvement or repair of a stationary gas turbine is carried out by successive removal of the gas turbine discs including its multiplicity of blades (buckets) from the common drive shaft. The overlying ring of tip shoes (shroud) and gas feed nozzles (stationary buckets) are similarly sequentially removed. Each disc is axially and circumferentially index marked with respect to the common drive shaft prior to removal of a portion of the drive shaft and substitution of a dummy drive shaft. The dummy shaft in turn is similarly indexed to the turbine disc index marks. Such marking assures that the turbine discs may then be reassembled to the common drive shaft so that no field rebalancing of the common drive shaft, and its assembled air compressor stages, is required for vibration control.
