As an example, in the case of lithium, tenements of up to 100 hectares will pay ARS 19,000 per year, where previously they paid ARS 3,200 per year.

The proportion of emergency room visits billed as “high intensity” that don't result in a hospitalization grew from 4.8% in 2006 to 19.2% in 2019, reflecting ...

In addition, older patients and those with multiple chronic medical conditions account for a growing share of the U.S. For example, more primary care physicians are referring patients to the ER for quick diagnostics, and the growth of urgent care clinics provides an alternate setting for low-acuity visits that otherwise might have gone to the ER. [the proportion of ER visits associated with high-intensity billing](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29382680/) increased from 46% in 2006 to 58% in 2012. Regulators are taking a stronger look at However, “to frame increasing high-intensity billing as a consequence of either changes in patient presentations or changes in billing practices would be to set up a false dichotomy that fails to acknowledge the substantial evolving role of the ED in care delivery,” researchers wrote in the new study. They found that the increase in high-intensity billing for emergency services reflected an increase in the case mix of patient presentations and the services performed in the ER to manage their care, suggesting that coding practices alone don’t account for the trend.

The use of temporary staffing agencies has sharply increased over the last few years due to worsening staffing shortages resulting from the effects of the pandemic. In 2019, nursing home facilities reported spending about $9.8 million for healthcare ...

Reimbursements may not fully cover the expenditures that nursing facilities made to healthcare staffing agencies during 2020, 2021, and 2022. The new study focuses on how these rising costs for temporary staff may affect the TennCare program. Reimbursement for FY 2022 is based on FY 2019 costs plus adjustments for inflation. TennCare does not foresee that the increases in nursing facility expenses for staffing agencies will materially affect the state’s overall costs. So far, during the first half of 2022, nursing home facilities have already spent $52.2 million on temporary staff. This is because TennCare reimburses nursing homes for Medicaid patients based on a formula that includes actual staffing costs that occurred in previous years.

EASTLEIGH, UK / ACCESSWIRE / December 22, 2022 / i3 Energy plc (AIM:I3E)(TSX:ITE), an independent oil and gas company with assets and operations in the UK ...

Upon the publication of this announcement via a Regulatory Information Service, this inside information is now considered to be in the public domain. i3 is proud of its performance to date as a responsible steward of the environment, people,and capital management. The Company's dividend is designed to grow with the underlying profitability of the business and be sustainable despite fluctuations of the commodity cycle. In accordance with the AIM Note for Mining and Oil and Gas Companies, i3 discloses that Majid Shafiq is the qualified person who has reviewed the technical information contained in this document. In 2022, i3 has taken significant steps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through electrification projects and the replacement of high emission pneumatic controllers and pumps with low bleed controller and solar powered pumps. The sensitivity is based on the commodity price and exchange rate assumptions set forth in the table above. - Illustrates the expected impact of changes in commodity prices and the CAD:USD exchange rate on i3's estimate of Net Operating Income for 2023 of USD 159.6 million to $166.7 million, holding all other variables constant. The success of our 2022 drilling program in Canada has continued to de-risk our growth strategy in certain key development assets within our portfolio and we are confident that our 2023 capital program will be equally successful and should result in production growth of up to 13% in 2023. Despite inflationary pressures, these production gains are expected to be delivered with a capital efficiency(2) similar to that achieved in 2022 of USD 13,500/boepd. The 2023 capital programme is forecasted to deliver total average production of between 22,250 and 23,000 boepd (natural gas, oil & condensate, natural gas liquids and royalty interest production expected to average approximately 50%, 25, 24% and 1%, respectively), with estimated peak production, achieved in the second half of the year of approximately 26,000 boepd. i3's 2023 capital programme will be 67% weighted to the second half of the year with wells expected to be brought on production ahead of historically stronger winter pricing and further enabling the Company to manage certain near-term infrastructure constraints associated with the strong drilling results realized in 2022, seasonal restrictions and regularly scheduled facility turnarounds in Central Alberta. The Board has approved a USD 64.05 million capital programme for 2023, which will be fully funded from existing Company resources and forecast internally generated cash flow, focused on delivering estimated year-over-year average production growth of 13% despite the impact of planned facility turnarounds in Central Alberta which have been incorporated into the annual 2023 forecast and are expected to impact total annual production by approximately 415 boepd, or 2% on the year.
