  • Publication number: 20230385849
    Abstract: A system and computer-implemented method for identifying fraudulent healthcare providers receives raw claims data from one or more data sources. The raw claims data includes claims associated with a selected healthcare provider. Each of the claims includes one or more claim lines. A first model is executed on the raw claims data. The first model determines a first score for the healthcare provider. A second model is executed on the raw claims data. The second model determines a second score for the healthcare provider. In addition, a third model is executed on the raw claims data. The third model determines a third score for the healthcare provider. A final provider-level risk score is determined for the healthcare provider based on the first, second, and third scores.

  • Patent number: 10318545
    Abstract: Systems, methods and non-transitory media are provided to cause or facilitate the interactive visualization of large datasets. Elements of the visualizations are user-engageable to allow the user to visualize various aspects of the dataset in selectable layers of detail, and view the relationships between the data stored and sorted within various selected data fields. Engagement with dataset visualization views by the user can trigger alternate dataset visualization views in secondary and tertiary visualization interfaces.

  • Publication number: 20050284238
    Abstract: An occupant weight sensor (1) for placement between a frame (7) fixed to the chassis of a vehicle and a second frame (8) supporting a vehicle seat has a sense element having a first body (12, 22, 28, 34, 50, 62, 64, 68, 84) formed with a planar sense surface on which are mounted piezoresistors electrically connected in a Wheatstone bridge configuration. A post (12a, 22c, 28c, 34e, 50b, 62a, 64a, 68b, 84g) extends outwardly from the first body for attachment to the first frame. A second body is formed with a force transfer portion (14a, 24g, 30d, 36b, 52a, 70a, 94a) permanently attached to the first body along an outer periphery circumscribing the sense surface. The piezoresistors are electrically connected to conditioning electronics received in a chamber formed between the two bodies. The effects of parasitic loads on the sense element are minimized by selected placement of the piezoresistors on the sense surface.

  • Publication number: 20050284669
    Abstract: A compliant interface (14,16) for vehicular seat weight sensors minimizes parasitic stresses affecting sensor output. In one embodiment, an integral compliant interface (14) has an annular flange (14a) attached to a post extending from the sensor body with a first compliant member (14r) disposed between the annular flange and an upper elongated flange (14h) of a mounting bracket (14l) and a second compliant member (14s) disposed between the annular plate and a lower elongated flange (14k) to allow pivotal movement of the sensor limited by a motion stop member (14f) of annular flange (14b) engaging the lower flange. An overload cage (14u) may be placed over the sensor and attached to an additional flange (14l) to contain the sensor in the event of a failure of the mount in a catastrophic high speed crash. According to another preferred embodiment, an interface having upper and lower body members are formed with a sensor post receiving bore (16c) for attachment to the post.

  • Publication number: 20050114769
    Abstract: A source code editor is used to develop multilanguage documents while providing the advanced editing functionality of secondary editors and without requiring the programmer to explicitly open and interface with the secondary editors. The multilanguage document is presented to the user in a primary application view of the primary editor. Code segments written in different languages are identified and sent to the appropriate secondary editors, which in turn create secondary documents that are transparent to the programmer. As edits are made to the primary application view of the document, the edits are replicated by the secondary editors behind the scene. Functionality that is enabled by the secondary editors, such as syntax coloring, auto-completion, and validation is identified by the primary editor and replicated in the primary application view, so as to appear as if the primary editor is inherently configured with the leveraged functionality of the secondary editors.
