Abstract: The present invention features, inter alia, methods of treating (a) a patient who has been diagnosed with a hematopoietic cancer or (b) a population of patients who have been diagnosed with a hematopoietic cancer with a fixed dose of tamibarotene or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The tamibarotene is administered daily, for a prescribed number of days, at 8-14 (e.g., 12 mg/day) regardless of the patient's weight or body surface area, and may be administered as the sole therapeutic agent or in combination with one or more of the additional therapeutic agents described herein.

Abstract: A computer-based method of collecting payment for a service is presented. The method includes capturing a service that is rendered for a service recipient by a service provider and, if there is a third party payer in contract with the service recipient to pay at least part of the cost for the service, determining a relationship between the third party payer and the service provider that defines a preliminary allowed amount to be collected by the service provider for the service. Of the preliminary allowed amount, a first portion that is to be collected from the service recipient for the service is determined. The computer automatically collects the first portion from the service recipient on the date of service. In one embodiment, the method provides a universal platform with which healthcare providers can collect payments from patients and various third party payers.
