Abstract: Exemplified methods and systems facilitate presentation of data derived from measurements of endotoxins in fluid samples. In particular, the exemplified methods and systems facilitate presentation of such measurements in a graphical user interface and/or in a report for endotoxin concentrations in a fluid sample. The presentation facilitates a unified and intuitive graphic visualization that are presented within a single interactive interface and/or report.

Abstract: Well settings in mature oil field may be configured by generating progressively, geological reservoir models by fitting a set of initial geological reservoir models that generate forecasts of fluid injection and production at a well as a function of time, with a subset of historical well data to produce a set of intermediary geological reservoir models, and fitting the set of intermediary geological reservoir models to a next subset of the historical well data. A set of diverse geological reservoir models may be determined from the geological reservoir models. A mid-term schedule of well settings associated with the well may be generated based on the set of diverse geological reservoir models and an economic model that comprises mid-term estimation of oil sale price and of production costs. The mid-term schedule of well settings may be actuated to control the fluid injection and production at the well.

Abstract: Well settings in mature oil field may be configured by generating progressively, a plurality of geological reservoir models by fitting a set of initial geological reservoir models that generate forecasts of fluid injection and production at a well as a function of time, with a subset of historical well data to produce a set of intermediary geological reservoir models, and fitting the set of intermediary geological reservoir models to a next subset of the historical well data. A set of diverse geological reservoir models may be determined from the plurality of geological reservoir models. A mid-term schedule of well settings associated with the well may be generated based on the set of diverse geological reservoir models and an economic model that comprises mid-term estimation of oil sale price and of production costs. The mid-term schedule of well settings may be actuated to control the fluid injection and production at the well.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for outsourcing healthcare patient billing, thereby significantly reducing the billing and collections burden for healthcare providers, and simplifying the payment process for patients. Patients subscribe to a healthcare funding club, and establish one or more funding sources, such as an unsecured loan, a credit card, a pre-funded escrow account, a tax preferred funding account, and/or direct checking account withdrawal. Healthcare providers are paid at least a patient-responsible portion by the club, and the club obtains reimbursement from the funding source(s). The insurance portion of an insurance-covered service can be obtained by the healthcare provider, the healthcare club, or the patient. Branding can be included that is uniform across healthcare providers, and/or specific to each healthcare provider. A healthcare club card can be provided to the patient and used to pay for healthcare services, and consolidated, periodic healthcare expense statements can be provided to patients.

Abstract: A track is formed from a plurality of circumferentially adjacent shoe tracks wherein each shoe track is connected to an adjacent shoe track by a pin extending along the length of each shoe track and a pin connector extending between the adjacent shoe tracks. A pair of laterally adjacent half tracks forms each shoe track. Each half track is comprised of a block with an integrally formed engagement horn extending at a right angle from the block. The engagement horn in each block is located at a position not more than 20% of the block of the block length from an interior end of each block. Each shoe track has at least one engagement opening.
