Value-driven Sample Clauses

Value-driven. Acting upon Short-term and Long-term Informa- tion Value‌ One of the core ideas of the ForgetIT Reference Model is to deviate from the general keep it all model, which makes the implicit assumption that all information has the same value with respect to being kept. In general the value of information is multifaceted and can be considered from different perspectives, e.g., the short-term value for current activities vs. long-term value of a resource for an organization. For the combined information and preservation management system, short-term value and long-term value of information has to be considered separately, since it is driven by different factors. For a review of short-term and long-term memory and forgetting see deliverables D2.2 [?] and D2.3 [?]. Short-term value The short-term value refers to the value of content for the current focus of activity, e.g., documents used for a task at hand are of high short-term value. In short-term value of information, we will see a high dynamics in the information value (due to changing interests and tasks) and a high influence on interaction-based evidences on the information value. In terms of the human brain, this is roughly comparable to the working memory (see Section 2.3), although human working memory has an even higher change frequency. Further details about foundations of managed forgetting can also be found in deliverable D3.1 [?] and following WP3 deliverables. Identifying the short-term value of a document is of high interest for creating imme- diate benefit in information management, e.g. by de-cluttering the desktop, which is one of the goals of the ForgetIT project. The idea here is to give higher priority or visibility to resources with high short-term value. In the ForgetIT project the term Memory Buoyancy has been coined for this purpose. It is inspired by the idea of resources of decreasing importance to the user are sinking away from the user. preservation. It refers to the value a resource has on the long run. Such long-term value can be used to decide about the investment to be made into preservation for the respective resource [?]. Long-term value is expected to be more difficult to compute, since it includes estimating future use of resources [?]. Furthermore, long-term value is driven by (at least partially) different factors than short-term value. It is expected that more objective values such as diversity, coverage and quality will play a more important role here (see deliverable D9.3...

Value-driven. Acting upon Short-term and Long-term Informa- tion Value‌ One of the core ideas of the PoF Reference Model is to deviate from the general keep it all model, which makes the implicit assumption that all information has the same value with respect to being kept.

For a review of short-term and long-term memory and forgetting see deliverables D2.2 [Logie et al., 2014] and D2.3 [Logie et al., 2014]. Short-term value The short-term value refers to the value of content for the current focus of activity, e.g., documents used for a task at hand are of high short-term value. In short-term value of information, we will see high dynamics in the information value (due to changing interests and tasks) and a high influence on interaction-based ev- idences on the information value. In terms of the human brain, this is roughly com- parable to the working memory (see Section 2.3), although human working memory has an even higher change frequency. Further details about foundations of man- aged forgetting can also be found in deliverable D3.1 [Kanhabua et al., 2013] and subsequent WP3 deliverables. Identifying the short-term value of a document is of high interest for creating imme- diate benefit in information management, e.g. by de-cluttering the desktop, which is one of the goals of the ForgetIT project and realized in the Personal Preservation Pilots described in D9.3 [Xxxx et al., 2014] and D9.4 [Xxxx et al., 2015]. The idea here is to give higher priority or visibility to resources with high short-term value. In the ForgetIT project the term Memory Buoyancy has been coined for this purpose. It is inspired by the idea that resources of decreasing importance to the user are sinking away from the user (decerasing Memory Buoyancy). Long-term value The long-term value of a resource is obviously relevant in the context of preservation. It refers to the value a resource has on the long run. Such long- term value can be used to decide about the investment to be made into preservation for the respective resource [Andersson et al., 2014]. Long-term value is expected to be more difficu...

  • Value-Based Programs If you receive covered healthcare services under a Value-Based Program inside a Host Blue’s service area, you will not be responsible for paying any of the Provider Incentives, risk-sharing, and/or Care Coordinator Fees that are a part of such an arrangement, except when a Host Blue passes these fees to us through average pricing or fee schedule adjustments. The following defined terms only apply to the BlueCard section only: • Care Coordinator Fee is a fixed amount paid by us to providers periodically for Care Coordination under a Value-Based Program. • Care Coordination is organized, information-driven patient care activities intended to facilitate the appropriate responses to an enrolled member’s healthcare needs across the continuum of care. • Value-Based Program (VBP) is an outcomes-based payment arrangement and/or a coordinated care model facilitated with one or more local providers that is evaluated against cost and quality metrics/factors and is reflected in provider payment. • Provider Incentive is an additional amount of compensation paid to a healthcare provider by us, based on the provider’s compliance with agreed-upon procedural and/or outcome measures for a particular group of covered persons. Federal or state laws or regulations may require a surcharge, tax or other fee that applies to insured accounts. If applicable, we will include any such surcharge, tax or other fee as part of the claim charge passed on to you. • Enrolled Member Liability Calculation When covered healthcare services are provided outside of BCBSRI service area by nonparticipating providers, the amount an enrolled member pays for such services will generally be based on either the Host Blue’s nonparticipating provider local payment or the pricing arrangements required by applicable law. In these situations, the enrolled member may be responsible for the difference between the amount that the nonparticipating provider bills and the payment BCBSRI will make for the covered services as set forth in this paragraph. Federal or state law, as applicable, will govern payments, including but not limited to, emergency services, air ambulance services, and certain covered healthcare services rendered by a nonparticipating provider. • Exceptions In some exception cases, BCBSRI may pay claims from nonparticipating healthcare providers outside of BCBSRI service area based on the provider’s billed charge. This may occur in situations where an enrolled member did not have reasonable access to a participating provider, as determined by BCBSRI. In other exception cases, BCBSRI may pay such claims based on the payment BCBSRI would pay to a local nonparticipating provider (as described in the above subsection “How Non-network Providers Are Paid”). This may occur where the Host Blue’s corresponding payment would be more than BCBSRI in-service area nonparticipating provider payment. BCBSRI may choose to negotiate a payment with such a provider on an exception basis. Unless otherwise stated, in any of these exception situations, the enrolled member may be responsible for the difference between the amount that the nonparticipating healthcare provider bills and payment BCBSRI will make for the covered services as set forth in this paragraph. Blue Cross Blue Shield Global® Core If you are outside the United States (hereinafter “BlueCard service area”), you may be able to take advantage of the Blue Cross Blue Shield Global Core when accessing covered healthcare services. The Blue Cross Blue Shield Global Core is unlike the BlueCard Program available in the BlueCard service area in certain ways. For instance, although the Blue Cross Blue Shield Global Core assists you with accessing a network of inpatient, outpatient and professional providers, the network is not served by a Host Blue. As such, when you receive care from providers outside the BlueCard service area, you will typically have to pay the providers and submit the claims yourself to obtain reimbursement for these services. • Inpatient Services: In most cases, if you contact the service center for assistance, hospitals will not require you to pay for covered inpatient services, except for your cost-share amounts/deductibles, coinsurance, etc. In such cases, the hospital will submit your claims to the service center to begin claims processing. However, if you paid in full at the time of service, you must submit a claim to receive reimbursement for covered healthcare services. • Outpatient Services: Physicians, urgent care centers and other outpatient providers located outside the BlueCard service area will typically require you to pay in full at the time of service. You must submit a claim to obtain reimbursement for covered healthcare services. Preauthorization may be required for outpatient services. • Submitting a Blue Cross Blue Shield Global Core Claim: When you pay for covered healthcare services outside the BlueCard service area, you must submit a claim to obtain reimbursement. For institutional and professional claims, you should complete a Blue Cross Blue Shield Global Core claim form and send the claim form with the provider’s itemized bill(s) to the service center (the address is on the form) to initiate claims processing. Following the instructions on the claim form will help ensure timely processing of your claim. The claim form is available from BCBSRI, the service center or online at xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx. If you need assistance with your claim submission, you should call the service center at 0.000.000.XXXX (2583) or call collect at 0.000.000.0000, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
