Cal Dental Medi-Cal Dental Program EDI How-To Guide 11/2019 Welcome to Medical Dental Program’s Electronic Data Interchange Program! This How-To Guide is designed to answer questions providers may have about submitting claims electronically. The Medi-Cal Dental Program's Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) program is an efficient alternative to sending paper claims. It will provide more efficient tracking of the Medi-Cal Dental Program claims with faster responses to requests for authorization and payment. Before submitting claims electronically, providers must be enrolled as an EDI provider to avoid rejection of claims. To enroll, providers must complete the Medi-Cal Dental Telecommunications Provider and Biller Application/Agreement (For electronic claim submission), the Provider Service Office Electronic Data Interchange Option Selection Form and Electronic Remittance Advice (ERA) Enrollment Form and return them to the address indicated on those forms. Providers should advise their software vendor that they would like to submit Medi-Cal Dental Program claims electronically, and if they are not yet enrolled in the EDI program, an Enrollment Packet should be requested from the EDI Support department. Enrollment forms are also available on the Medi-Cal Dental Program Web site (www.denti- cal.ca.gov) under EDI, located on the Providers tab. Providers may also submit digitized images of documentation to the Medi-Cal Dental Program. If providers choose to submit conventional radiographs and attachments through the mail, an order for EDI labels and envelopes will need to be placed using the Forms Reorder Request included in the Enrollment Packet and at the end of this How-To Guide.

  • Chapter 19 RECOVERING DIGITAL EVIDENCE from LINUX SYSTEMS
    Chapter 19 RECOVERING DIGITAL EVIDENCE FROM LINUX SYSTEMS Philip Craiger Abstract As Linux-kernel-based operating systems proliferate there will be an in­ evitable increase in Linux systems that law enforcement agents must process in criminal investigations. The skills and expertise required to recover evidence from Microsoft-Windows-based systems do not neces­ sarily translate to Linux systems. This paper discusses digital forensic procedures for recovering evidence from Linux systems. In particular, it presents methods for identifying and recovering deleted files from disk and volatile memory, identifying notable and Trojan files, finding hidden files, and finding files with renamed extensions. All the procedures are accomplished using Linux command line utilities and require no special or commercial tools. Keywords: Digital evidence, Linux system forensics !• Introduction Linux systems will be increasingly encountered at crime scenes as Linux increases in popularity, particularly as the OS of choice for servers. The skills and expertise required to recover evidence from a Microsoft- Windows-based system, however, do not necessarily translate to the same tasks on a Linux system. For instance, the Microsoft NTFS, FAT, and Linux EXT2/3 file systems work differently enough that under­ standing one tells httle about how the other functions. In this paper we demonstrate digital forensics procedures for Linux systems using Linux command line utilities. The ability to gather evidence from a running system is particularly important as evidence in RAM may be lost if a forensics first responder does not prioritize the collection of live evidence. The forensic procedures discussed include methods for identifying and recovering deleted files from RAM and magnetic media, identifying no- 234 ADVANCES IN DIGITAL FORENSICS tables files and Trojans, and finding hidden files and renamed files (files with renamed extensions.

  • Unix / Linux Processes Management
    UUNNIIXX // LLIINNUUXX -- PPRROOCCEESSSSEESS MMAANNAAGGEEMMEENNTT http://www.tutorialspoint.com/unix/unix-processes.htm Copyright © tutorialspoint.com Advertisements In this chapter, we will discuss in detail about process management in Unix. When you execute a program on your Unix system, the system creates a special environment for that program. This environment contains everything needed for the system to run the program as if no other program were running on the system. Whenever you issue a command in Unix, it creates, or starts, a new process. When you tried out the ls command to list the directory contents, you started a process. A process, in simple terms, is an instance of a running program. The operating system tracks processes through a five-digit ID number known as the pid or the process ID. Each process in the system has a unique pid. Pids eventually repeat because all the possible numbers are used up and the next pid rolls or starts over. At any point of time, no two processes with the same pid exist in the system because it is the pid that Unix uses to track each process. Starting a Process When you start a process (run a command), there are two ways you can run it − Foreground Processes Background Processes Foreground Processes By default, every process that you start runs in the foreground. It gets its input from the keyboard and sends its output to the screen. You can see this happen with the ls command. If you wish to list all the files in your current directory, you can use the following command − $ls ch*.doc This would display all the files, the names of which start with ch and end with .doc − ch01-1.doc ch010.doc ch02.doc ch03-2.doc ch04-1.doc ch040.doc ch05.doc ch06-2.doc ch01-2.doc ch02-1.doc The process runs in the foreground, the output is directed to my screen, and if the ls command wants any input (which it does not), it waits for it from the keyboard.

    Medical Center of the Rockies Location: Loveland, CO Client: Poudre Valley Health System Design Firm(s): BHA Design (LA), Martin/Martin (Civil) Landscape architect/Project contact: Angela Milewski, ASLA Email: [email protected] ASLA Chapter: Colorado Photo: BHA Design Incorporated Project Specifications Project Description: As a new major heart and trauma hospital, Medical Center of the Rockies was designed as a facility to provide world-class healthcare in a unique design that would join site and building in a single composition. The stormwater conveyance and detention facilties were designed as an integral part of a zoned, naturalistic landscape concept which embraced the natural Colorado landscape and helped achieve sitee credits toward acheiving LEED Gold project certification. The resulting benefits included reduced irrigation water use, improved wildlife habitat and stormwater quality, and a restorative natural setting for users. Case No. 273 Pag e | 2 Project Type: Institutional/education Part of a new development Design features: Stormwater conveyance and detention facilities. This project was designed to meet the following specific requirements or mandates: Local ordinance, NPDES Impervious area managed: greater than 5 acres Amount of existing green space/open space conserved or preserved for managing stormwater on site: greater than 5 acres The regulatory environment and regulator was supportive of the project. Did the client request that other factors be considered, such as energy savings, usable green space, or property value enhancements? The stormwater improvements were part of an overall design for this new hospital facility. The project as a whoole sought and received LEED Gold certification, so the improvements were part of a comprehensive design focused on sustainability.
