Skip to comments.WILL HAWAII EVER COME CLEAN ON OBAMA?
Posted on 10/22/2010 2:37:45 PM PDT by STE=Q
"The Post & Email has been requesting Certificates of Nomination from the Hawaii Elections Office since July but has been denied access, even though the documents in question have been in the public domain for many months and have been reported on extensively by other researchers and bloggers.
We previously reported that our requests to both the Department of Health and the Elections Office and those of many other citizens have been stonewalled, denied, ignored, or responded to by an attempt to bill the other party for an item that was never produced."
(Excerpt) Read more at thepostemail.com ...
The short answer is no.
The Communist Party is too well entrenched there.
Ping to a few!
That would probably incriminate a lot of people in Hawaii, and the whistleblower's life wouldn't be worth a plug nickel.
Hawaii is a big Democrat machine and a huge welfare state. They consider protecting Democrats as a must to maintain the entitlements that go to the state.
All I have asked for is certified copies of the DNC and RNC Certification of Nomination forms for presidential elections 2008, 2004, and 2000. I would think that the 2008 ones are in PDF format and can be quickly accessed and emailed to me. I cannot imagine that the others would not be easily accessible as well."

Obama for the state of Hawaii and did not state Obama was qualified under the US Constitution. According to Hawaiian Law Revised Statutes 11-113, it does not specify that the the Hawaiian DNC had to certify Obama in Hawaii but that a recognized party does it. It took the National DemoRat party to certify Obama to satisfy Hawaiian law.
- - - -
The evidence:
Hawaiian Law Revised Statutes 11-113 (Presidential Ballots). The Hawaiian DNC state party left out for Obama's certification that he is qualified under the US Constitutional, which is highlighted in the letter below.
Here is the Hawaiian DNC certification for Obama, which is missing the qualification under the US Constitution and for the state of Hawaii.
John Kerry's 2004 Hawaiian party DNC Certification. Notice that Kerry is qualified under the US Constitutional and for the state of Hawaii.
Al Gore's 2000 Hawaiian DNC party certification. You will also notice that he fully complies with Hawaiian Revised Statutes 11-113.
Enter Nancy Pelosi signed statement... because Hawaii did not fully certify Barack Hussein Obama. Pelosi signs the statement to fulfill the required Hawaiian law under Revised Statutes 11-113.
Repeat again from the letter,
"Hawaii Revised Statutes 11-113 (Presidential Ballots) provides that a recognized political party will provide the Office of Elections with following information prior to placing the names of its candidates for President and Vice President on the Presidential ballot:...."

They have to cover up for the education scam with foreign students that they were pulling over on the feds for millions of dollars back in the 60's and 70's from what i've heard.
Not in our lifetimes.
I just want to go on record and state:
There NEVER was, or is there now, a COVER-UP for Obongo and company, in Hawaii.
So move along...
Nothing to see here!(sarc)
The best explanation I have read is that HI when it was admitted to the Union commonly practiced "fraud" as per birth records in order to receive more federal money. Therefore both Dems and Republican do not want to open that can of worms. There is a lot financially riding on the outcome of that, much more than the consequences of the Obozo election.
Great post RS!
Would you be so kind as to ping some of the anti-"birther" Trolls?
It's SOO much fun to watch them deny the obvious!(LOL!)
If Joe the Plumber had been in Hawaii, we'd know the status of his trade license in minutes. In Ohio it took a day or two.
No, it would be interesting to know who is being told what by who and what would happen to them if they did.
Serving under "the provisions of the united States Constitution" (OR) Serving under "the provisions of the national Democratic Parties?
What's the big difference? (sarc)
Picky! Picky! Picky!
Would you be so kind as to ping some of the anti-birther Trolls?
Its SOO much fun to watch them deny the obvious!(LOL!)
OK, here you go. ;-)
Interesting post and comparison of the different documents (Obama's vs. Kerry's vs. Gore's vs. Hawaiian Law).
I had never seen that before.
Indeed, 'legally qualified to serve under the provisions of the U.S. Constitution' vs. 'legally qualified to serve under the provisions of the Democrat party' ...
Quite a big difference. Thanks for the Post.
I wonder how many will show up?
After last night, their overseers must have given them hell.
Heads must have rolled!(LOL!)
There are far too many unanswered questions about 0bama's background to reasonably conclude that he is qualified to hold the office he occupies.
This information about the nomination notice to the State is not new and it is but one question among many.
Sadly, though, it appears the progressives have secured the courts; and we've known for years they control the lame stream media, so that things are being quashed before they ever come to hearing.
He should be impeached for his fraud on the American public, and removed from office.
What happened last night?
I can't think what it was but shortly after he got into office, Hussein gave Hawaii a boatload of $$$ for some perk or freebie. Bottom line, it was the pay off.
From the article:
"The Hawaii Department of Health has stated that a 'long-form' birth certificate can no longer be obtained"
It can NOW!!!
Can someone notify the Post & Email that one of our Freeper's has posted her "long form BC.(see link above)
You guys are probably better at this stuff than I am.
"What happened last night?"
============================================================See post 24 below!
I mean post #24 above!
. . . . Back to the thread.
Oops, their "mistake".
Check out # 24.
Her "long form" was also verified — in person! — by El Sordo... an honorable anti-"birther"!
Thanks for the link to last night's fiasco and proper slap down on the trolls. I remember Danae saying she was sending off for hers but didn't know she'd gotten it back. And a loooong form at that, ha! And all nicely verified by El Sordo. See, I knew the originals were still there and hadn't been destroyed. Digital only, my aunt fanny. No county clerk EVER lets loose of any record. Never, ever, nope, no way, ain't gonna happen.
P and E hyper-linked Danae's posts at # 1181 and # 1545 in this article.
Jamese777 is still hyperventilating over last night's take-down.
His panties are in a knot (LOL!)
He Posted a petulant post to me.
I'm Not going to put up with any more of his regurgitated nonsense -- and told him so!
Again, great job!
Well, Jameseee has now paid to troll here. LoL!
But did he ever pay up? That's all I want to know.
He made a $200.00 donation to Free Republic.
Looks like the trolls aren't coming.
I'm hitting the sack.
Night all!
I guess he's a standup guy, after all, too. :)
There is no doubt that the first certificate doesn't contain the necessary information. But if you compare it to the other two, it's because an entire line is missing, not just a few words. And because of that, the remaining sentence is ungrammatical: "...are legally qualified to serve under the provisions of the National Democratic Party balloting at the Presidential Preference Poll and Caucus..." If I weren't a conspiracy theorist, I'd conclude it was probably just a simple cut-and-paste error—the same sort of computer error that left the island of birth information off that other Freeper's form. I mean, I'd expect a conspiracy powerful enough to swap out microfiche in libraries across the country to at least be able to edit a sentence properly.
I can recommend some gorgeous, fun places in Florida to vacation and it's not so arrogantly pricey.
Florida will go Republican in two weeks, so show your appreciation by spending your vacation bucks there....not in the liberal Ah-no-ah State.
I vote with my wallet....how 'bout you?
If it was an "error," nothing would have stopped the Hawaiian DNC party to resubmit the certification statement to include the US Constitutional and chosen by the state language to fulfill the Hawaiian law. The maximum time to fix it could have taken about 2 minutes and that's a stretch.
Boycott blue-state Hawaii till their game-playing officials cough up the goods on Obama.

Everyone here needs to pump the breaks. Lets analyze this: USC should have a sub par year on offense with a completely new group of personnel and kiffin sucking arse as a coach. Florida's offense will be similar to what you saw last year, maybe slightly better. Speedy will see that and count those 2 out. To me, it comes down to LSU/A&M. It's just like when you have a deadline at work in 8 months. You won't take it serious right now and neither is he
Oh, so he is an LSU lock and is just messing around?
When will we have a proud top recruit come out and say "I love LSU and I will be a Tiger
"I kept dreaming about playing for LSU."
"LSU is where I've always wanted to be, and now that I'm committed, there's no reason to look at anything else. I just can't wait to get to Baton Rouge and start working out with my team."
I'm overreacting a bit, but I for one am sick of the drama queen recruits and social media.

It seems more likely that, for whatever reason, A&M, USC and Florida are his top schools right now

the photo indicates. The falls are basically white, but there's a faint rim
of pale yellow and pale yellow on the shoulders and even around the signal
area. The standards are a lavender-white as opposed to a blue-white. Sure
doesn't resemble the pod parent! One more sibling to bloom and that will be
all of them. The last one is going to be a lot darker than the first two.

Painful cystitis
Q I have had three unpleasant bouts of cystitis in the past year. Each time, I've had to take antibiotics and now my GP has suggested that I stay on antibiotics for up to a year. She says that the cystitis may damage my kidneys and has shown me the test results that show that I have bacteria in my urine. I am really unhappy about taking antibiotics for so long.
A It is received medical wisdom that once you find bacteria in a urine sample, it must be treated with antibiotics to avoid the risk of the infection spreading. Kidney infection is even nastier than cystitis, causing fever, pain in the flank, nausea and vomiting, and the possibility of long-term damage. But the evidence suggests that untreated cystitis rarely causes kidney infection, and almost always gets better on its own though the symptoms may persist for some months. It's true that taking antibiotics for six to 12 months does reduce the number of attacks, but I can understand your reluctance to take tablets for that long.
Another option is for you to keep a single one-off dose of antibiotic at home (eg trimethoprim 200mgs) which you can take as soon as you start to get symptoms. You could see a specialist but there's no real need for further tests. Cranberry juice has had a good press and is worth a try. It's also worth drinking plenty of fluids, passing urine immediately after sex even if you can't be bothered, avoiding spermicide and taking care to wipe your bottom from the front backwards.
Into the dark
Q My father, now in his 80s, has lost almost all his sight because of a condition called senile macular degeneration. We have been told that nothing more can be done for him, and he has totally lost the will to live. Apart from worrying about him, I fear that I will inherit this condition.
A This condition is now called age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Would that treating it were as easy as renaming it. It is the commonest cause of blindness in the developed world and around 18 people in every 100 over 85 have little or no sight as a result. The usual cause is gradual drying out of the part of the retina that deals with what we see when we look straight ahead (macula). This leads to progressive, patchy loss of central vision while peripheral vision remains relatively intact.
Your dad now needs practical help; the RNIB is an excellent starting point. He may want to think about taking antidepressants for a while. For yourself, you may be at slightly increased risk of developing AMD, but it remains true that the passage of years is a far stronger risk factor than heredity. The other risk factors that you can control are smoking and high blood pressure. I'd also advise you to see an eye specialist (a high-street optician will do) to examine the back of your eyes (retina).
Under pressure
Q I'm a 43-year-old man and I've been told that my blood pressure is a bit high and that if I may need to take medication for life. I don't smoke, drink the odd beer or glass of wine and try to watch what I eat though my weight has crept up over the past few years. I work for myself in IT and do get a bit stressed at times though no more so than everyone else I know. I really don't want to take pills when I don't feel ill. What else can I do?
A Change your lifestyle to avoid pills. It will lower your blood pressure though whether you'll actually live longer as a result is debatable. Your risk of developing heart disease, stroke or Alzheimers as a result of your high blood pressure depends on several risk factors, not just your blood pressure. So it's great that you don't smoke, you should get your cholesterol checked and can afford to relax a bit if you come from a long line of octagenarians.
Any increased risk of stroke and heart disease as a result of high blood pressure, increases significantly as you get older. So you need to keep having your blood pressure checked at least once a year and whereas you may decide to try lifestyle options or just live with a highish blood pressure now, you may want to start medication if it remains high when you're in your 60s. If you can get your blood presure down to 140/80 or below, that's probably fine for now.
Avoiding stress is probably impossible, and being too laid back in the commercial sector may not be in your best interests anyway. Manageable levels of stress probably do you no harm. Increasing your potassium's a good idea (eat five small bananas a day or take supplements equivalent to 2g or 60mmol/day) so long as you don't have kidney problems or take other medication. Also, cutting down on salt at mealtimes is usually advised.
These answers are intended to be as accurate and full as possible, but should never be used as a substitute for visiting a doctor and seeking medical help.

I'm pretty sure my love for grey horses started with the "H - B" from Lonesome Dove. Also gave me a reference name when my horses misbehaved..when I was a kid my mom didn't find it funny when I said "But mom...it's a movie horse, I'm really not cussing..."
Attachment 81559
So true
I like your horse
Mr Ed.
Another favorite horse is The Black from the Black Stallion series
filmed close to my place
Some of mine are Black Beauty, Flicka, Secretariat, Affirmed and Zenyatta. I'll post more later.

Letter Of Note of the Day
Wedding season once again is upon us, and a June 1971 letter from future U.S. President Ronald Reagan to his soon-to-be-wed son, Michael, contains advice for the groom that stands the test of time.
An excerpt:
If you truly love a girl, you shouldn't ever want her to feel, when she sees you greet a secretary or a girl you both know, that humiliation of wondering if she was someone who caused you to be late coming home, nor should you want any other woman to be able to meet your wife and know she was smiling behind her eyes as she looked at her, the woman you love, remembering this was the woman you rejected even momentarily for her favors. Mike, you know better than many what an unhappy home is and what it can do to others. Now you have a chance to make it come out the way it should. There is no greater happiness for a man than approaching a door at the end of a day knowing someone on the other side of that door is waiting for the sound of his footsteps.

Children with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) exhibit cognitive, neuropsychological and neurobehavioral problems that range from mild to severe. Moreover, secondary disabilities in a number of life domains are common, including a high incidence of depression and anxiety disorders. Hypothalamic- pituitary-adrenal (HPA) dysregulation is a common finding in major depression. Furthermore, there is a strong relationship between depression in adulthood and adverse early life events. Consistent with these findings, brain areas implicated in depression overlap with areas that mediate the stress response, with the HPA axis a key player in both. We have shown that prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) reprograms the fetal HPA axis such that HPA tone is increased throughout life. PAE offspring are typically hyperresponsive to stressors, and show both increased HPA drive and deficits in feedback regulation. Furthermore, interactions between the HPA axis and both the gonadal and serotonergic systems are altered by PAE. This pattern of dysregulation parallels in many ways what is observed in depression. The present proposal will utilize our well-established animal model of PAE to examine the links among PAE, stress system abnormalities, the gonadal and serotonergic systems and depression. In the context of the stress-diathesis model, we will test the hypothesis that fetal programming of HPA activity by PAE permanently sensitizes neuroadaptive mechanisms that mediate responses to stress, resulting in hyper- reactivity to subsequent, even mild, stressful life events. Ultimately, repeated stress exposure results in a maladaptive cascade of events and increased vulnerability to depression and anxiety. Our Preliminary Studies demonstrate sex-dependent increases in depressive symptomatology in PAE animals following exposure to chronic mild stress (CMS) in adulthood. The proposed studies will extend these finding in important and novel directions.
Our Specific Aims are to investigate: 1) the role of the maternal hormonal milieu in programming fetal HPA activity, sensitizing the offspring HPA axis, and mediating increased vulnerability to adverse effects of stress on offspring HPA, brain and behavioural outcomes;2) the role of HPA dysregulation in adult PAE males and females in mediating increased vulnerability to adverse effects of stress on HPA, brain and behavioural outcomes, and the role of the gonadal hormones in mediating the sexually dimorphic effects of PAE and stress that are observed;and 3) whether antidepressant treatment can reverse or alleviate the adverse effects of stress on HPA, brain and behavioural outcomes in PAE offspring. The proposed studies will elucidate mechanisms mediating the link between PAE and increased vulnerability to depression and anxiety disorders in children with FASD, and have important implications for the development of novel therapeutic interventions.
Children with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) exhibit cognitive, neuropsychological and behavioral problems, as well as numerous secondary disabilities, the most prominent being mental illnesses such as depression. The present research utilizes our well established animal model of prenatal alcohol exposure to examine the role of stress system abnormalities in mediating this increased incidence of depression. The data from these studies will significantly increase our understanding of the mechanisms underlying the long term and far reaching consequences of prenatal alcohol exposure on health and well-being, and will have important implications for the development of novel therapeutic interventions for depression in individuals with FASD.

Application Manager issues
Jun 12, 2009 10:03 AM
Hi All,
I am trying to develop an application manager to manage MHP applications. I would like your inputs on how to tackle the following issue.
The lifecycle control functions initXlet(),startXlet(),pauseXlet() and destroyXlet() are supposed to return quickly (As per the javax.tv.xlet Specification). That is these calls from the Application Manager are just to signal state changes to the application. But what if I make such a call to the application and the application puts that thread into a while(true) loop ?? . To be specific, a Rogue application would put my PauseXlet() or destroyXlet() called thread into a infinite loop and never return. So how should I take care of such a scenario?
What is the best strategy to make these calls to the application? I am planning to allocate a threadgroup to the thread I use to make the initXlet(),startXlet() ,etc calls and set a timer for each operation(on a trail error basis which i think is not the best way to do it).If the threads dont return after a reasonable amount of time(say 10sec) I would assume that the thread is hung or the application is misbehaving and proceed to destroy the application. If the destroy doesnt return then I would kill the threadgroup on the whole.
Please do tell me other alternatives to handle such applications.
Thanks in advance,
This content has been marked as final.

Lorna Luft (born November 21, 1952) is an American television, stage, and film actress and singer. She is the daughter of singer and actress Judy Garland and Sid Luft, and the half-sister of singer and actress Liza Minnelli.
Early life[edit]
|This section of a biography of a living person does not include any references or sources. (November 2016) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Lorna Luft was born in Santa Monica, California. She attended University High School in Los Angeles during her senior year and was a member of the school choir.
Stage and television[edit]
|This section does not cite any sources. (December 2016) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
She made her show business debut at age 11 singing "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town" on the 1963 Christmas episode of her mother's CBS television series, The Judy Garland Show. Siblings Liza Minnelli and Joey Luft also appeared in this episode.
She soon joined the family act on a summer concert tour, the highlight being Garland's third and final appearance at New York City's famed Palace Theatre on Broadway in 1967.[1] In this month-long engagement, Judy Garland "shared" the bill with Lorna (then 14 years old) and son Joey (12 years old). The show was recorded live and released on ABC Records as Judy Garland: At Home At The Palace.[2]
Luft is married to her second husband, musician Colin R. Freeman.[3]
Luft made her Broadway debut in 1971 at the Shubert Theatre as a replacement cast member in the musical Promises, Promises,[4] adapted from the classic 1960 Billy Wilder film The Apartment. The show is best known for the hit song "I'll Never Fall in Love Again".
Luft starred in the 1981 national tour of They're Playing Our Song and in 1982 she played Paulette Rebchuck in Grease 2. In 1983, she played Peppermint Patty in the Off Broadway production of Snoopy!!! The Musical[5] (a sequel to You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown[6]) and later that year she co-starred in Extremities with Farrah Fawcett.[6][7]
Luft appeared as Nurse Libby Kegler on the CBS television series Trapper John, M.D. during that show's final season of 1985–1986 and also appeared as Patti Bristol in a 1985 episode of Murder, She Wrote entitled Broadway Malady.
From 1992 through 1994, she played Adelaide in the American and world tour productions of Guys and Dolls. In 1996, she appeared in an Irish production of Follies in Dublin with Mary Millar, Alex Sharpe, Christine Scarry, Aidan Conway, Enda Markey, Dave Willetts and Millicent Martin. In 2002, she starred as Mama Rose in a University of Richmond school production of Gypsy.
In November 2006 through January 2007, she performed in the UK premiere of Irving Berlin's White Christmas: The Musical, a new stage adaptation based on the film. Lorna reprised her role in White Christmas the next year, playing the Edinburgh Playhouse from November 19 to December 8, 2007 and the Wales Millennium Centre in the Donald Gordon Theatre from December 13, 2007 through January 12, 2008.
She appeared in two episodes of the 2007 Logo animated series Rick & Steve: The Happiest Gay Couple In All The World.
In October 2007, she released her debut CD Lorna Luft: Songs My Mother Taught Me in the United Kingdom. Produced by Barry Manilow and her husband Colin R. Freeman, the album celebrates the music of her mother. In 2005 she toured Ireland with her stage show, Songs My Mother Taught Me. In June 2006, she surprised audiences at Carnegie Hall by performing a duet with Rufus Wainwright on the song "After You've Gone" at the end of Wainwright's tribute concert of Garland's triumphant 1961 comeback at Carnegie Hall.
Luft appeared in The Wizard Of Oz, the stage show of the movie that made her mother famous, at The Lowry Centre in Manchester, England. She portrayed the role of the Wicked Witch of the West, played by Margaret Hamilton in the 1939 film.
In April 2009, Luft completed a successful UK tour of the critically acclaimed Hugh Whitemore play Pack of Lies, in which she played the role of Helen Kroger. She starred alongside Jenny Seagrove, Simon Shepherd and Daniel Hill. In May 2009, she appeared in W magazine as a special guest performer for the acclaimed avant-garde Theo Adams Company's latest project, 'Performance', photographed by David Sims.[8] In July 2009, she appeared at the Mermaid Theatre, London to record for the radio series Friday Night is Music Night. Lorna Luft and Friends – A Tribute to Judy Garland also featured John Barrowman, Frances Ruffelle and Linzi Hateley.
Luft participates in various children's and AIDS-related charities, including the annual Los Angeles AIDS Walk and The Children's Wish Foundation International.[9] She has been an advocate for drug rehabilitation and has spoken for the Council on Alcohol & Drugs.
In May - July 2015, Luft toured the UK in Judy - The Songbook of Judy Garland, a show highlighting her mother's life and music. The show featured Garland's signature songs and recreations of film scenes from her MGM years.
In films, Luft has appeared in Grease 2 (1982), Where the Boys Are '84 (1984), 54 (1998), and My Giant (1998). She and her brother Joey had cameo appearances in the 1963 film I Could Go On Singing.
Published works[edit]
She is the author of the 1998 book Me and My Shadows: A Family Memoir. Among its revelations is that she had an affair with Barry Manilow in 1971.[3] In 2001, the book was adapted as an Emmy-winning TV miniseries Life with Judy Garland: Me and My Shadows. It stars Judy Davis as the adult Judy, Tammy Blanchard as the teenage Judy, Hugh Laurie as Vincente Minnelli, Victor Garber as Sid Luft, and Marsha Mason as Ethel Gumm.
On December 17, 2012, Luft discovered a lump on her right breast. "I was in total denial", Luft said. Three weeks later, her radiographer informed her that she had grade-2A breast cancer. She called her close friend Barry Manilow, who connected her with cancer specialist David Agus. After reviewing the tests, Agus told her, "I'm looking at your biopsy and I can tell you right now, Lorna, you're going to be OK." To save her breast, Luft opted for a lumpectomy followed by adjuvant chemotherapy and radiation. She completed her final chemotherapy treatment in 2013.[10]
In June 2015, Luft revealed that her cancer had reemerged. Consequently, the UK tour of Judy - The Songbook of Judy Garland concluded early on July 11, and Luft returned to the United States for surgical treatment.[11][12]

Muhammad Ali said, "Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the face."
Whew…it's a new year. While I thoroughly enjoyed 2013, I am excited and hopeful for 2014. Work is so busy that it seems like I've barely had time to breathe this January….that's a good thing, right? Hey, anyone see me on TV? :) Check out WRAL.
Hospitals, on the other hand, may be anxious and doubtful about their 2014s. Hospitals have good reason to wonder about the future. Our NC General Assembly was fairly harsh on hospitals in the last session, passing numerous session laws that directly or indirectly negatively affect hospitals.
But to be fair, the 2013 NC General Assembly didn't ONLY affect hospitals…see Stephen Kobert's report on North Carolina legislature. Kobert's graphic simulation is hilarious!
Senate Bill 4 entitled "No NC Exchange/No Medicaid Expansion," was one of the first bills out of the gate. While I am not necessary an advocate for expanding Medicaid (see my blog "Medicaid Expansion: Bad for the Poor"), I understand that Medicaid expansion would greatly benefit the hospitals, as well as Medicaid recipients.
Here is an interesting scenario:
Bradford Regional Medical Center and Olean General Hospital sit only 20 miles apart on opposite sides of the Pennsylvania/New York border. (See "Hospitals Facing Big Divide In Pro- and Anti- ACA States" by Beth Kutscher). New York expanded Medicaid and Pennsylvania did not. New York also opted to set up its own health exchange, which is working. Pennsylvania is floundering with healthcare.gov. Olean projects billions in lost revenue due to non-Medicaid expansion. I bet Olean wishes it could move the border of New York! Or its hospital!
House Bill 998 capped the sales tax refund that non-profit organizations, which was largely aimed at non-profit hospitals.
House Bill 834 and Senate Bill 473 require certain hospitals and health care facilities to publicize the costs many health care procedures. So when you need a CAT scan, you can see what UNC's costs are for a CAT scan versus WakeMed's and make an individual choice as to which hospital to present yourself. Sounds like a fair and reasonable request, but imagine the administrative cost for the hospitals to abide by the requirements.
Furthermore, the budget reduced hospital outpatient payments from 80% to 70% of costs. The budget further instituted a 3% Medicaid reimbursement "withhold" that the states calls a "shared savings plan." The budget changed the hospital provider assessment state retention formula. Now the state can collect 25.9% of total assessment, instead of the cap of $43 million.
Not just the NC General Assembly affects hospitals. On the federal level, the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services CMS) also took a stab. A new CMS rule converts the current Medicare 5-level, intensity-based payment system for clinic visits to one, single outpatient visit code. Prior to this change, a hospital could be reimbursed for a Medicare patient visit anywhere from $56.77 for a level 1 new patient to $175.79 for a level 5 new patient. Now all Medicare clinic visits are reimbursed at $88.31. You can see that some hospitals would not like this change.
But, as Ali said, "Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the nose."
The possible punch to NC Hospitals?
Medicaid RAC audits…
For two years, we have been required to sign up Medicaid recovery audit contractors (RACs). But we have been slow. HMS, the RAC with contracts in 28 states, including North Carolina says that it has been slow getting started with Medicaid RACs because the state-by-state data have been scant and the procedural hurdles were difficult. But, according to "Report on Medicare Compliance," Medicaid RAC audits will be in full swing for hospitals this year.
According to the same article, in North Carolina, two targets are tonsillectomies/adenoidectomies and ambulance services. Also, at issue in NC, are the DRGs and the medical necessity of inpatient admissions vs. outpatient services. While RACs are only to audit going back 3 years, the RACs can get permission to go back 5 years.
Medicaid RACs collect contingency fees anywhere between 9.5% to 12.5%, so they have the incentive to find problems.
HMS boasts that in two mid-Atlantic states, the Medicaid RAC recovered over $12.5 million through credit balance audits of inpatient facilities.
Pow!! Right in the kisser!

Who sings this song? – Without You.
There is a song called without you.
It's a newer song, 90's I believe. A man sings it.
The music video has a guy break dancing in front of a store.
The beat of the song is kind of technoish, rather than rap or pop.
April 3rd, 2005, 10:08 PM #2
Are you sure it's called without you?
I know of the song: Dirty Vegas - Days go by
Which is also technoish and the guy in the video does breakdance infront of a store on some cardboard.

Maybe we are looking to the same song
I first heard it on a tv commercial for some automobile like Volkswagon or something.
It has "Without you" in the lyrics but I don't think it is the name of the song because I can not find it anywhere in Youtube.
The voice is kind of technoish and I am dying to find the name and artist
