  • Publication number: 20240095672
    Abstract: An analysis of the scans is performed to determine whether the selected item was moved from the back room to the shelf, then returned from the shelf to the back room. The analysis also determines a re-bin time when the selected product was returned to the back room. An adjustment to the PI is blocked when last PI adjustment time is later than the re-bin time. An adjustment to the PI is also blocked when an audit indicator is received at the interface indicating that the retail store is under an audit. An adjusted PI value is determined when the analysis indicates that the selected item was moved from the back room to the shelf, then returned from the shelf, the adjusted PI value being at least one more than the shelf capacity value.

  • Publication number: 20220309590
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a document management system is provided that automatically converts documents submitted electronically with or for a claim into a format that is required by a third-party payor. The document management system maintains a list of document format and delivery preferences for each third-party payor. Rather than submit a claim and document directly to the third-party payor, the submitter submits the claim and document to the document management system using a portal that accepts a wide variety of electronic document formats. The document management system then retrieves the format and delivery preferences of the third-party payor and converts the documents into whatever format is required by the third-party payor. The document management system then delivers the converted document to the third-party payor according to the delivery preferences such as email, fax, or regular mail.

  • Publication number: 20220279725
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a utility vehicle hay fork attachment device that is comprised of a frame assembly further comprised of at least one horizontal frame member with at least one tine, a mounting plate, and a pair of mounting arms. The device further preferably resembles a garden fork and is made of a metal, such that it can carry strong loads and resist wear from repeated uses. The device is also comprised of mounting arms and a mounting ring that allow multiple means of attachment and support to a vehicle. In this manner, the device can be applied to any utility or all-terrain vehicle known in the art, to decrease the amount of time and effort required for moving hay bales.

  • Patent number: 11186878
    Abstract: A method for analyzing cell free DNA (cfDNA) from the bloodstream of a cancer patient is provided. In some embodiments, the method may comprise sequencing at least part of the coding sequences of TP53 and KRAS in a sample of the cfDNA, analyzing the sequences to identify nucleotide transversions in the coding sequences of the genes, relative to reference sequences of the genes. In some embodiments, the method may comprise counting the total number of identified nucleotide transversions. The presence of nucleotide transversions indicates that the patient will be more responsive to the immune checkpoint inhibitor, whereas a decreased number of transversions or no transversios indicates that the patient will be less responsive to the immune checkpoint inhibitor.
