20130226607 | AUTOMATED HEALTH CARE DELIVERY VERIFICATION - A health service system is described herein that uses commonly available modern mobile computing devices to enhance the delivery and verification of health care services. Information automatically collected from mobile devices can corroborate a timesheet, mileage log, or other information submitted by caregivers. The system provides a comprehensive suite of verification technologies. For example, the system may capture photographic evidence of the visit (e.g., a picture of the patient, caregiver, or both together), GPS location and time information, biometric information (e.g., a fingerprint, retina scan, or other biometric signature from the patient and/or caregiver), and so forth. Thus, the health service system improves the delivery of and payment for health care services by helping each party to collect and provide the information associated with verification in a less obtrusive and more automated manner. | 08-29-2013 |

The method includes controlling repetitive activation of the ultrasonic transmitter. The method also includes receiving a signal from the ultrasonic receiver during an activation of the ultrasonic transmitter. The method also includes determining that fluid is absent or present in a portion of the medical fluid tube based on a comparison between the signal and a threshold value. | 11-27-2014 |
20150367061 | Vial Spiking Assemblies and Related Methods - This disclosure relates to vial spiking assemblies and related methods. In certain aspects, the vial spiking assemblies include a vial adapter having a base, a spike extending from a central region of the base, and a sidewall extending from the base and surrounding the spike. The base and the sidewalls partially, define a cavity that is configured to receive at least a portion of the vial. The assemblies also include a spike cover that is removably attached to the spike and that includes a material configured to indicate when the material is contacted with liquid. | 12-24-2015 |
