This document presents the State of California’s concept of potential components for a section 1115 waiver, to be effective September 1, 2010. This new waiver reflects the need to achieve the structural reforms as adopted as part of the State’s 2009-10 budget and to prepare for possible national health care reform. Under the terms of the waiver, and consistent with recent legislation passed by ...

We report on 332 infertile couples who underwent 1115 cycles of intrauterine insemination (IUI) with washed husband's semen. The indication for IUI was an abnormal post-coital test due to either a male or cervical infertility factor. The mean number of IUI cycles per patients was 3.4, the overall pregnancy rate 18.7%, and the pregnancy rate per cycle 5.6%. The cumulative pregnancy rate calculat...

Well-designed electronic health records (EHRs) must integrate a variety of accurate information to support efforts to improve quality of care, particularly equity-in-care initiatives. This case study provides insight into the challenges those initiatives may face in collecting accurate race, ethnicity, and language (REAL) information in the EHR. We present the experience of an academic medical ...

In this study examination is given to the psychometric properties of the Italian version of the Screen for Child Anxiety Related Emotional Disorders (SCARED) in a large community sample of adolescents. Additionally, a comparison was made between the anxiety scores of this Italian adolescent cohort (N=1975) and a comparative Dutch adolescent cohort (N=1115). Findings revealed that a five-factor ...

The numerical simulation of compressible two–phase fluid flows exhibits severe difficulties, in particular, when strong variations in the material parameters and high interface velocities are present at the phase boundary. Although several models and discretizations have been developed in the past, a thorough quantitative validation by experimental data and a detailed comparison of numerical sc...
