PROGRAM GOALS AND OBJECTIVES. This Annual Program Statement (APS) outlines the intent to establish public-partnerships to evaluate, develop, and/or broaden deployment of transgenic technologies conferring tolerance to abiotic stresses such as drought, salinity, heat and for improving nitrogen use efficiency in rice and wheat. Through this APS, USAID will facilitate the evaluation of selected technologies under field conditions in India, the most promising of which may be selected for further development and delivery to Indian farmers, and, eventually South Asian farmers. Private-sector firms are especially encouraged to apply, though all technology developers will be considered, including public and private universities and research institutions. This project will focus on advanced stages of the product development process, beginning with the evaluation of a range of promising trait-crop combinations in field trials under local conditions and continuing with the development of a regulatory package and deployment strategy for selected technologies. For each technology selected, USAID intends to support partnerships that may include any combination of the technology provider, an Indian public sector institution and/or an Indian private sector partner. Through this APS USAID will provide initial grants to technology providers and their partners for the purpose of evaluating selected technologies under field conditions in India, and where results are sufficiently promising, develop a plan to commercialize the technology. After a period of 2-3 years, USAID expects to select several of these technologies for further field testing, product development, biosafety data package assembly and eventual delivery of improved varieties to farmers. Technology providers may build on existing collaborations and establish partnerships themselves or request USAID assistance in identifying appropriate public and/or private partners in India. Future support for this program is subject to the availability of funding, and USAID may choose to support all, some or none of the selected technologies in future funding cycles through other mechanisms. In addition to providing grants, USAID may leverage additional contributions, both financial and in-kind, from other donors. USAID may provide assistance, if needed, in selecting partners and/or developing a commercialization strategy for each technology. USAID may also provide assistance, if needed, with meeting biosafety requirements in India by mobilizing resources ...
PROGRAM GOALS AND OBJECTIVES. In order to process payment for medical claims, the Department is soliciting the services from a Third Party Administrator (TPA) to review, adjudicate and process payment in an accurate and efficient manner. Each division will have their own separate program for adjudicating and paying claims. This includes payment, reimbursement rates, providers, and plan dates. With respect to services provided to County Corrections, Medical Clinic and Xxxx Xxxxx, facility bills will be presented to the TPA in a standard UB-04 format. The bills shall be valued by the TPA at the Orange County contracted rate for each facility. Professional services shall be presented in a standard Health Care Financing Administration CMS/HCFA 1500 format and adjudicated based on applicable provider fee schedule, unless their TPA receives notification from the County to adjudicate the claim at a different rate. Any change to a fee schedule requires a thirty (30) day notification to the TPA prior to the effective date of the change. The county will advance $400,000 for each program to pay claims. The funds shall be kept in a separate bank account and reconciliation shall be completed and sent to each program on a weekly basis. The reconciliation report shall include the number of the check used to pay the claim, claim ID number (specific to the TPA), patient ID number (assigned by each program), last name, first name, provider name, billed rate, paid rate, and date of service. The report shall accompany an invoice from the vendor for reconciliation services. There shall be four invoices and reconciliation reports sent out weekly: Xxxx Xxxxx medical claims, Xxxx Xxxxx dental claims, Medical Clinic and Corrections Health claims. The county will replenish the deposit for the amount paid in claims by the TPA. Corrections Health Plan Year: 10/1-9/30 Medical Clinic Year: 10/01 – 9/30 Xxxx Xxxxx Plan Year: 3/1-2/28 Corrections Health Providers: Approximately 300 providers Medical Clinic Providers: Approximately 500 providers Xxxx Xxxxx Providers: Approximately 250 providers The service date on the claim form determines which year plan a claim hits. Xxxx Xxxxx Claims Adjudicated: 7,000 claims per year Medical Clinic Year: 25,000 claims per year Corrections Health Adjudicated: 8,000 claims per year The adjudication date determines which year plan the adjudication fee hits.
