Patent number: 9544166Abstract: An Access Gateway Management System (AGMS) allows telephone operating companies to transition their existing wireline customers over to Voice over the Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology without having to invest in new workflow processes, systems, or maintenance facilities by adapting the Operational Support Systems interfaces currently employed for managing legacy circuit-switched switching systems to manage Line Access Gateways (LAGs), which are the generic line termination systems employed in VoIP infrastructure. The AGMS also configures and adapts metallic loop test systems currently deployed for the purpose of routine maintenance and troubleshooting of subscriber lines terminating directly or indirectly (through access systems) on existing switching systems to continue to provide this functionality when the lines terminate on LAGs. Synchronization of the subtended LAGs is coordinated with the legacy network by the AGMS.Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 2014Date of Patent: January 10, 2017Assignee: GENBAND US LLCInventor: Joseph Marcus Elder

Publication number: 20160239617Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for generating and outputting medical billing data. Data is captured by pervasive devices before, during, and after a patient encounter with a healthcare provider. Any unstructured data is transformed into usable structured data, and determinations, such as a service provided by the healthcare provider, are made based on that data as well as other stored data. Based on those determinations, billing data for billing claims related to the patient visit is generated and outputted to a payer of the claims. The billing data may include a medical code that is predicted by a billing model. Billing models may be created from data captured by the pervasive devices from patient visits and data in external data stores, such as electronic health records.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 12, 2016Publication date: August 18, 2016Inventors: FAISAL FAROOQ, JOSEPH MARCUS OVERHAGE

Patent number: 7953210Abstract: A switch proxy comprising a controller, a translations database and a switching fabric are connected to a trunk group between a remote terminal and its controlling local switching system. The switch proxy monitors control and alarm signals to and from the switching system on the trunk. In the event of loss of control signals from the host switching system, the switch proxy intercepts requests for service, etc. from a calling telephone connected to the remote terminal and performs a look up in the translation database. If the call can be completed without the controlling switching system the call is looped back to the remote terminal. The translation database is maintained by a switch proxy management system that receives change orders from the local exchange carrier. The switch proxy management system forwards relevant changes to the switch proxy's translation database in the field.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2006Date of Patent: May 31, 2011Assignee: Aztek Engineering, Inc.Inventors: Joseph Marcus Elder, Peter Gade Ruether
