Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100100395METHOD FOR HIGH-RISK MEMBER IDENTIFICATION - A method for using claims data to identify high-risk members of a healthcare plan is disclosed. In one embodiment, the present invention includes searching the plurality of claims of members selected by a filtering criteria to identify the presence of an intervention flag, to identify factors influencing care intervention, and identifying a medical episode driving the member's cost. In one embodiment, the intervention flag the medical episode are displayed in association with an identification of the member. In another embodiment, the member selection criteria includes selection based on the member's predicted future health care utilization.04-22-2010

20090050590STORAGE SYSTEM AND METHODS - A storage system that includes a storage rack and a plurality of containers. The storage rack includes a frame assembly, a plurality of shelf members, and at least one biasing member. The biasing member is positioned on one of the shelf members and extends into a storage space defined two adjacent shelves that is sized to receive a container. The biasing member applies a biasing force upon a container positioned in the storage space thereby retaining the container in the storage rack. The biasing member can be a separately formed piece that is mounted to the shelf member. Alternatively, the biasing member can be formed integral with the shelf member such that addition of the biasing member to the storage rack does not require additional material.02-26-2009

20110258860OPTIMIZED MECHANICAL ADVANTAGE CUTTING TOOL - A cutting tool and method comprises a first lever having a first jaw at one end. A second lever is connected to the first lever at a first pivot where the second lever has a second jaw that is opposed to the first jaw. A third lever is connected to the first lever at a second pivot and connected to the second lever at a third pivot such that relative movement of the third lever relative to the first lever between an open position and a closed position defines a stroke of the tool that corresponds to movement of the hand contact points on the levers toward one another. The third pivot comprises a pin engaging a cam surface where the cam surface has a shape such that the mechanical advantage may increase and decrease through the stroke of the tool and may be variable through the stroke of the jaws.10-27-2011

20120055030CUTTING EDGE FOR A CUTTING TOOL - A cutting tool comprises a first cutting edge and a second cutting edge movable into engagement with one another. The first cutting edge comprises an edge tip extending along at least a portion of the cutting edge. The edge tip has a geometry that lowers the cutting force required to cut hard articles and minimizes damage to the cutting edge. The edge tip has a flat end face defining a first edge and a second edge. A first side face extends from the first edge and a second side face extends from the second edge where the first side face and the second side face extend at an angle relative to one another such that the first side face and the second side face diverge as they extend away from the flat end face.03-08-2012
20120055031CUTTING EDGE FOR A CUTTING TOOL - A cutting tool comprises a first cutting edge and a second cutting edge where the cutting edges are movable into engagement with one another. At least one of the cutting edges comprises an edge tip extending along at least a portion of the cutting edge. The edge tip has a curved outer surface that in cross-section is bounded by a first line defined by the equation y=74x03-08-2012
