  • Jacobi Medical Center
    . June 10, 2015 Dear Manufacturers, I am writing on behalf of Jacobi Medical Center, 340B ID DSH330127, to inform manufacturers that Jacobi Medical Center recently underwent an audit by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) of Jacobi Medical Center’s compliance with 340B Drug Pricing Program (340B) requirements. As background, Jacobi Medical Center qualified for the 340B Program as a Disproportionate Share Hospital at 1400 Pelham Parkway South, Bronx, New York 10461 and has participated in the 340B Program since 1992. Through the audit process, Jacobi Medical Center was found to have non-compliance within their 340B Program and responsible for repayment as a result of the following findings: Jacobi Medical Center dispensed 340B drugs to ineligible providers, as prohibited by 42 USC 256b(a)(5)(B). The sample revealed that Jacobi’s contract pharmacies deemed two prescriptions 340B-eligible even though they should not have been eligible. The prescriptions were written by providers at ineligible sites (private offices which were not reimbursable on Jacobi’s Medicare cost report) without an arrangement demonstrating that responsibility of care provided remained at Jacobi. In addition, the auditor found that the 12 month eligibility period did not screen the patient-provider relationship or the patient referral process. It was also noted that the electronic medical record system did not update the billing software, thus allowing the third party pharmacy benefits manager to consider deactivated providers as eligible prescribers. Jacobi Medical Center reversed the 2 prescriptions from contract pharmacies that should not have been eligible, and removed the ineligible providers from Jacobi medical Center’s list of eligible providers.

  • Diet Shift of Red Belly Pacu Piaractus Brachypomus (Cuvier, 1818) (Characiformes: Serrasalmidae), a Neotropical Fish, in the Sepik-Ramu River Basin, Papua New Guinea
    Neotropical Ichthyology, 12(4): 827-833, 2014 Copyright © 2014 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia DOI: 10.1590/1982-0224-20130212 Diet shift of Red Belly Pacu Piaractus brachypomus (Cuvier, 1818) (Characiformes: Serrasalmidae), a Neotropical fish, in the Sepik-Ramu River Basin, Papua New Guinea Sandra Bibiana Correa1, Ricardo Betancur-R.2, 3, Bernard de Mérona4 and Jonathan W. Armbruster2 Introduction of fish species is a globally widespread practice that causes losses of native species and homogenization of diversity within and across continents. Diet assessments are important tools to depict the ecological function of species introduced into novel ecosystem and possible direct and indirect ecological effects. In this study, we compare the diet of Piaractus brachypomus, a mainly frugivorous Neotropical fish, introduced into the Sepik-Ramu River Basin (Papua New Guinea) nearly two decades ago, to that of similar size individuals from Neotropical populations in the Amazon and Orinoco River basins (South America). In contrast to native populations that feed mainly on terrestrial plants and invertebrates, the diet of introduced P. brachypomus is mainly composed of fish remains and aquatic plants, while terrestrial plants are frequently consumed but in relatively smaller amounts. These findings show that P. brachypomus has an inherently plastic diet that can be adjusted when displaced to a novel geographic area. While trophic plasticity increases the likelihood of a species to establish breeding populations after its introduction, it also reduces our ability to predict negative effects on native species. La introducción de peces es una práctica que se extiende globalmente y que causa perdida de especies nativas y homogenización de la diversidad dentro y entre continentes.
