Quotes

"It depends how you define a plague, but a plague normally, at least one of the meanings in the Bible, is when an enormous number of creatures of one species appear on the planet and so, to that extent, you could say the homo sapiens is a plague."

According to the FY11 IPPS Proposed Rule, CMS stated, "We will be able to process up to 25 diagnosis codes and 25 procedure codes when received on the 5010 format starting on Jan. 1, 2011. We recognize the value of the additional information provided by this coded data for multiple uses such as for payment, quality measures, outcome analysis, and other important uses."

An answer to one of the frequently asked questions regarding the study and the use of personal information is provided on the 's website. "We begin the study by collecting information on various exposures from those who do not have cancer and we continue to update this information over time. As cases of cancer or other diseases develop, we will compare those participants who develop cancer with those participants who do not. By doing so, we are able to understand the differences (in lifestyle, environment, and genetic factors) between people who get cancer and those who do not, what the likely risk factors are for cancer, and how to best prevent disease in the future."
