Abstract: Techniques are described for automatically presenting workflow(s) in an application based at least partly on detected signal(s). A radio-frequency signal may be emitted from a transceiver and received by a transceiver of a user device when the transceiver is in proximity to the device. In response, an application including functionality to activate a payment card can launch.

Abstract: An apparatus, including a power management computer; a fuel intake device which collects or recovers a fuel; a fuel storage device which stores the fuel; an electrical power generator which generates electrical power from or with the fuel; a power storage device or power pass-through system; and an electrical power supply system which provides at least some of the electrical power to a vehicle or premises, a public electrical energy grid, a private electrical energy grid, or a blockchain mining or transaction processing computer, or which recharges a battery of a stationary or moving vehicle; and a meter which records information regarding an amount or quantity of electrical power provided by the electrical power supply system. The power management computer processes information regarding the amount or quantity of the electrical power provided. Information regarding the electrical power provided is stored in a distributed ledger and blockchain technology system.

Abstract: An apparatus, including a computer including a database, and a distributed ledger. The computer provides information regarding a care plan and facilitates a video call between a user device and a first provider device. The computer receives, processes, and stores, information regarding the individual or patient in the first electronic healthcare record and a second healthcare record. If the care plan needs to be revised, the computer generates a care plan revision message and transmits the care plan revision message to the first provider device. The computer processes information for creating a revised care plan or receives information regarding a revised care plan, and stores information regarding the revised care plan in the database, the first electronic healthcare record, and the second healthcare record. Information regarding the video call, the information regarding the individual or patient, and the revised care plan, are stored in the distributed ledger.

Abstract: An apparatus, including a computer including a database which stores a first electronic record and information contained in a master records file, and a distributed ledger and Blockchain technology system. The apparatus facilitates a video call between a user device and a provider device. The computer, after processing information for updating the first electronic record, processes information for identifying a plurality of second electronic records for the individual and a healthcare provider associated with each second electronic record. The computer updates each of the plurality of second electronic records, and generates a record update message. The computer transmits the record update message to each of a plurality of second provider devices associated with each second healthcare provider. Information regarding the update to the first electronic record and the update to each of the second records is stored in the distributed ledger and Blockchain technology system.

Abstract: Various arrangements for providing bimodal digital video recording are presented. A plurality of over-the-air (OTA) television programs received via an antenna input port may be recorded to a local processor-readable storage medium. Record instructions may be transmitted to a cloud-based television programming service provider server system to remotely record and store scheduled streaming television programs to storage of the cloud-based television programming service provider server system. OTA television programs received via the antenna input port and recorded to the local processor-readable storage medium may be determined. Indications of television programs stored by the cloud-based television programming service provider server system may be received. Data may be output to a display device to present the bimodal DVR interface having a unified interface that simultaneously comprises indications of the recorded OTA television programs and indications of the scheduled streaming television programming.

Abstract: An apparatus, including a memory or database which is specially configured to store information regarding a payer-created rule or criteria; and a receiver specially configured to receive a request to access, obtain, change, alter, or modify, information contained in a payer's record or file. The apparatus processes the request using at least some of the information stored in the memory or the database and determines whether a requesting individual or entity is authorized to access, obtain, change, alter, or modify, information contained in the payer's record or file. The apparatus either allows or denied the accessing, obtaining, changing, altering, or modifying, of the information contained in the payer's record or file. The apparatus generates a notification report containing information regarding the allowance or the denial. The apparatus further includes a transmitter which transmits the notification report to a communication device associated with the payer.

Abstract: A body supported teleidoscopic device having an onboard electronic image capture device, such as a digital camera, and a display screen. The teleidoscopic device has an onboard battery and controlling circuitry. The teleidoscopic device may comprise a pistol grip handle for being hand held, or may comprise earpieces so as to be wearable in the manner of eyeglasses. The display screen may be onboard or remote. Where remote, the display screen may be provided with wireless or hard wired connection to the kaleidoscopic image source. The teleidoscopic device may comprise a projector for large scale display of images for group viewing. The teleidoscopic device may be focused on a screen to generate kaleidoscopic imagery using video feedback techniques. The projector and screen may take the form of a television.

Abstract: An apparatus, including a processor which processes a request to access, obtain, change, alter, or modify, information contained in a provider's or payer's record or file, wherein the processor determines whether a requesting individual or entity is authorized to access, obtain, change, alter, or modify, information contained in the provider's or payer's record or file, wherein the processor either allows the accessing, obtaining, changing, altering, or modifying, of the information contained in the record or file, or the processor denies the accessing, obtaining, changing, altering, or modifying, of the information contained in the record or file, and further wherein the processor generates a notification report containing information regarding the allowance or the denial of the accessing, obtaining, changing, altering, or modifying, of the information contained in the record or file, and a transmitter, wherein the transmitter transmits the notification report to a communication device associated with the pr
