The 3 Medical Billing Reports You Should Be Running Regularly Creating medical billing reports can help you diagnose the health of your practice Reports can show you how your practice is performing on important revenue cycle metrics whether claims are being paid in a timely fashion and and how well insurance carriers are paying you for key procedures among other things But how do you determine which are the most effective reports to run To find out I talked with several medical billing experts James Veccie Senior Revenue Cycle Management RCM Account Manager at NueMD Armine Manukian RCM Manager at Kareo Matt Barron Product Manager for Business IntelligenceReporting and Mobile at ADP AdvancedMD and Dr Sherif Hassan practicing physician and President of Maryland Urgent Care They identified three key billing analytics reports that could save your practice valuable timeand help you make more money Heres what I learned 1 The Accounts Receivable Aging Report and FollowUp Reports Veccie notes that while there are many reports that can be very valuable the Accounts Receivable AR Aging Report is a good barometer for the health of the average practice a statement echoed by Dr Hassan By looking at this report an experienced biller can tell whether or not the practices billing department is doing an adequate job Veccie also recommends looking at a few other related reports to get more detailed information the Insurance Payment Trend Report and the Insurance Collection Report NueMDs Insurance Collection Report Veccie uses NueMDs Practice Management Software to generate the AR Aging as well as the Insurance Payment Trend and Collection Reportsthough these reports are common to most medical billing software programs While the AR Aging report could technically be generated by hand the amount of time it would take would make doing so impractical If youre a practice seeing over 10 or 20 patients a day and youre not using an electronic software youre probably losing a ton of revenue Veccie says but you wont know how much without a way to track it What data does this report track The AR Aging Report breaks down claims based on the number of days theyve been in receivables in other words the number of days theyve been unpaid Most claims Veccie says take an average of about a month to get paid This report allows you to identify potential issues from a highlevel view while the followup reports give you a closeup look at where the issues might be stemming from The Insurance Payment Trend Report shows whats been billed out and whats been collected and lets you measure that against what is allowable with insurance Essentially it lets you see how much you should be collecting from patients to pay their claims And the Insurance Collection Report shows you claims that havent been collected on that are over a specified number of days old What data do you hope to see and what are some red flags to look for In the AR Aging report Veccie says youre hoping to see that all claims are being paid within 45 days There might be a problem if a claim hasnt been either paid or rejected by this timeso you should check into the issue and make sure progress is being made on getting the claim paid Veccie says Aging over 90 days is an even bigger red flag at this point its crucial for your practice to get the claim handled as unpaid claims could interfere with insurance companies timely filing deadlines Dr Hassan notes however that its important not to be thrown off by the rough figures of longterm AR aging Your practices patient population and the amount of paper versus electronic claims being submitted can affect these numbers Claims from workers compensation automobile accidents and outofstate insurance carriers tend to take longer to process Dr Hassan explains If your practice sees a high volume of these types of patients your claims may take longer than average to process A high volume of paper claims can also result in longer processing times the average paper claim takes about a month to process while electronic claims are frequently processed in as little as two weeks What do you do if you see a red flag When you see a red flag in the AR Aging Report thats where the followup insurance reports come in the Insurance Payment Trend and Insurance Collection reports can help you look into these potential claims issues on a more granular level If the notes in your practice management software system dont tell you why a particular claim was rejected Veccie says you may have to get on the phone with the insurance company Figure out what you need to change in the system so that the next time you send the claim through it will be paid every time you One easy way to investigate rejected claims and reduce your practices number of resubmitted claims says Dr Hassan is to verify the Current Procedural Terminology CPT codes being usedespecially if its the beginning of a new year Some CPT codes expire at the end of each year and using an outdated code will cause a claim to automatically be rejected Most practices still dont have an effective system in place for drilling down into these claims issues Veccie says they are still transitioning from traditional billing methods which relied upon manuallykept lists and spreadsheets to track unpaid claims to digital methods By using billing software to generate these reports on a regular basis any medical billing specialist can easily implement such a system 2 The Key Performance Indicators Report Kareos Key Performance Indicators Report gets Manukians vote for the best This report is the most useful she says because it provides a highleve l view of key areas in your practices revenue cycle management process allowing billers to identify changes and trends and spot potential problem areas Dr Hassan agrees that this report is extremely valuable as it can help you identify which encounters and CPT codes are the most profitable for your practice Kareo Manukian says radically simplifies a billing process that historically took up to a month to complete by hand It was very timeconsuming since it involved running a series of different reports and then extracting the needed data and creating an analysis manually she says Today the Kareo software offers this as a standard report that can be run in seconds giving practices access to valuable data in real time While this particular report is proprietary the data it reflects could be compiled using a variety of accounting and billing reports found in most medical billing software programs Dr Hassan recommends running this report every week and comparing your findings to the previous weeks so you can keep your finger on the pulse of your practices billing Kareos Key Performance Indicators Report What data does this report track Kareos Key Performance Indicators report tracks total encounters total number of procedures total charges total collections outstanding AR and total adjustments This report Manukian says allows billers to compare a variety of indicators from month to month and identify both positive and negative trends This enables practices to keep doing whats working and change what isnt What data do you hope to see and what are some red flags to look for In the Key Performance Indicators report naturally you want to see steady or positive trends in your top indicators Manukian lists several examples if you have relatively steady charges your collections should be relatively steady as well If your charges have been increasing your collections should too If youve identified potential problem areas and have been working towards for example increasing overall collections youre looking for evidence that your work is paying off A red flag in the Key Performance Indicators report says Manukian is a variation in total collections A sudden drop in collections that have historically been consistent could indicate a problem And if charges increase one month but collections dont increase the following month this might mean trouble as well Manukian also notes that you should keep an eye on claims average days in AR Your overall AR should be decreasing if not dig deeper to see whats going on behind the scenes What do you do if you see a red flag Manukian advises that first and foremost you look for an explanation behind any warning signs for example a decrease in collections this month should have been preceded by a decrease in charges last month An increase in days in AR could indicate an issue with a payer or it could reflect a problem with patient collections If there isnt a simple explanation look at your individual claims to see if you can identify the problem Additional reports can also be run to drill down into the underlying issue and help identify the root cause of any negative trend you spot in the initial report says Manukian For example if you see a drop in collections you may want to look at your AR Aging Report or Insurance Collection report If you see charges decrease the Provider Productivity Report might have some answers These types of reports can be found in most medical billing software programs 3 The Top CarrierInsurance Analysis Report Barron says that the ADP AdvancedMD Top CarrierInsurance Analysis Report is the most useful for helping practices save time and money This report also tracks revenue cycle metrics providing practices with a snapshot of how the overall business is doing The Top CarrierInsurance Analysis Report can be generated by the ADP AdvancedMD AdvancedInsight analytics engine says Barron For practices that dont use ADP AdvancedMDs software some skillful use of Microsoft Excel can produce similar results AdvancedMDs Top CarrierInsurance Analysis Report What data does this report track The ADP AdvancedMD Top CarrierInsurance Analysis Report tracks the charges payments and collections of your practices top 10 carriersin other words the payers and insurance companies that make up the majority of your practices business The report also tracks payments collections and CPT codes and units allowing the practice to drill down into the charges payments and collections for a specific CPT code This report also provides important information practices can use to negotiate better pricing with payers and insurance companies Most importantly the Top CarrierInsurance Analysis Report tracks what Barron refers to as the ultimate revenue cycle metric Collection Per Total Relative Value Unit RVU Physicians submit claims using CPT codes for the procedures they complete and every CPT code has a total RVU assigned to it This RVU helps determine how much your practice is paid for each of its services By looking at the Collection Per Total RVU rate for given procedures you can gauge how good your practices rates are how youre getting paid for certain procedures and how your revenue cycle is going What data do you hope to see and what are some red flags to look for In the Top CarrierInsurance Analysis Report Barron notes youre hoping to see that all of your top commercial carriers have a Collection Per Total RVU that is higher than the current Medicare Conversion Factor right now this is 3402 you want your top carriers to have a Collection Per Total RVU of about 40 50 You also want to see all of your top commercial carriers with very similar Collection Per Total RVU rates If the Collection Per Total RVU rates for your top carriers are lower than 3402 you may not be collecting the right amount from your patients Barron says Its also a red flag if there is a wide variation in the Collection Per Total RVU rates for your top carriers If you find that one carrier is paying you a significantly lower amount for the same procedures you may want to consider dropping the carrier or renegotiating your contract What do you do if you see a red flag Dropping a carrier that is paying you less than other top commercial carriers for the same procedures can save your practice as much as 50000 a year Barron says You may also be able to renegotiate your contract to get a better rate While some physicians may choose to keep even a carrier that doesnt pay well to make things easier on their patients you always want to make sure that youre making a wellinformed business decision Dr Hassan agrees that it is very important to have all the facts before deciding whether or not to drop a lowpaying carrierand he adds that this decision should be made with as little emotion as possible Dropping bad payers can be an essential move towards improving the overall health of your practice he says No matter what software youre using or which report you choose make sure youre running it regularly Veccie recommends that you run reports at least two or three times per week Dr Hassan runs reports weekly By simply taking the time to generate these reports now you could save your practice countless man hoursand hundreds of thousands of dollars each yearin the long run

Home Battery Storage Tesla Increases Cost Of Powerwall 2 To 9600 Not Including Installation Tesla Increases Cost Of Powerwall 2 To 9600 Not Including Installation April 24 2018 by Ronald Brakels 28 Comments Share 47 Share 1 Email 47 And you thought batteries were meant to be getting cheaper every year Sorry Ive been slow in reporting this but back in February Tesla raised the price of a Powerwall 2 in the United States by 400 Mickey Mouse dollars an increase from US5500 to US5900 Weve also copped it sweet here in Australia and the price has increased by 600 to 9600 before installation The only mitigating circumstance I can see is that all Tesla Powerwall 2 battery systems now come with full backup capability Its no longer an optional feature UPDATE October 2018 Theres been yet another Powerwall price increase since this article was published This price increase is the exact opposite of what is supposed to be happening with the cost of home battery storage It may be the result of Tesla being too optimistic about how cheap they could make them or it might be because the company is desperate to raise money due to the huge delays and quality control issues they are having with the production of their Model 3 electric car Im a great believer in compromise so I dont see why both reasons cant be right Id even throw in a third reason of my own involving orders from the planet Mars if I thought anyone would fall for it A History Of Australian Powerwall 2 Prices Prior to the Powerwall 2s official launch Elon Musk made some rather optimistic remarks about its price but I will ignore them After all when you get down to it he is only the CEO of the 383rd largest company in the United States and so cant be expected to get things right CEOs cant be held responsible for their public statements That would be positively unAmerican When the Powerwall 2 battery first launched this price appeared on Teslas Australian site Thats 8000 Australian along with a claim that Installation and supporting hardware starts at 1450 But it only took Tesla a couple of days to tell us they had made a mistake and that was the price without GST 1 This is what they replaced it with The 8000 price remained the same so apparently they didnt forget GST but the cost for Installation and supporting hardware went up by 700 and started at 2150 instead of 1450 Tesla stuck with this price for a little over a year and now they have this on their Australian site This shows a cost increase of 600 They have improved the way the price is set out as it is now more clear there is an additional charge for Supporting hardware But in my opinion its still clearly in breach of Australian Consumer Law on displaying prices One price including all components must be given so the price of the Powerwall 2 is actually 9600 That Supporting hardware is not an optional extra Your Tesla Powerwall 2 wont work without it so it has to be included in a single price Teslas Powerwall Installation Cost Claim Tesla also says that Typical installation cost ranges from AUD1150 to AUD2900 So using Teslas figures an installed Powerwall 2 will cost you somewhere from 10750 to 12500 Even the upper end of this does not leave much money for installers to make a living So if anyone offers you an installed Powerwall 2 battery for less than this range you are either very very lucky or something strange is going on For example if its bundled in with a solar system then theyve bumped up the solar power systems cost so they can try to distract you with what appears to be a great price for a battery Australian Price US Price One thing I have always admired about Tesla is they dont price discriminate when it comes to selling goods in Australia While other electric car manufacturers have charged far more here than they have in their home market Tesla has always sold their cars in Australia for pretty much what Americans pay after adjusting for tax The same applies for their energy storage systems Currently Americans have to pay US6600 for a Powerwall 2 battery Using todays exchange rate of 76 cents to the US dollar and adding our GST that would come to AUD9550 Almost the same as what Why Up Instead Of Down The cost of batteries has been tumbling This graph is in American dollars Except along the bottom where those are years not dollars Image Source Bloomberg Tesla is doing considerably better than the graph above suggests and it is possible they are now only paying costs around 200 Australian per kilowatthour to make their battery packs I suspect they are actually paying more than that but not much more So if batteries are falling rapidly in price why the hell is Tesla charging more for Powerwall 2 instead of less My theory is its because they want more money Oddly enough this seems to be everyone elses theory as well Some say Tesla may have underestimated how much it costs to make a Powerwall 2 while others say they need money because of hold ups with their Model 3 car production I dont know if the first idea is true but I do know the second one is Heres a whole site dedicated to showing how far behind Tesla is with their Model 3 and heres a graph showing Teslas predictions for cars produced per week and how incredibly far off they are in reality Who would have thought that creating a revolutionary new car and putting it into mass production without the 12 years of testing nonrevolutionary cars get would cause problems Image Source Bloomberg If Tesla had achieved their original target theyd now be selling around 10000 Model 3 cars a week while raking in piles of money and keeping their investors happy But currently their investors are not happy and if things dont improve fast eventually a group of them will say Well lend you the money you need to not go bust but we want some changes so we can be confident our investment is safe These changes will probably involve kicking Elon Musk out as CEO and either exiling him to Mars or making him Vice President In Charge Of Crazy Because Elon Musk would rather go to Mars on his own terms as Commander rather than cargo hes doing everything he can to raise money ranging from asking for a 66000 deposit to reserve a new Tesla Roadster to raising the price of the Powerwall 2 battery Tesla Can Get Away With It For Now Tesla has no problem selling every Powerwall 2 it makes at the moment and the high demand for them means they may have been able to get away with increasing the price without losing sales So in the short term Teslas management gets what they want more money coming in and a slightly reduced chance of a major restructuring But in the longer run Tesla loses and the chance that home energy storage in the future will be dominated by an American company named after a Serbian founded by a South African grows smaller each day the price rise remains in effect Teslas competitors are main beneficiaries of the price increase and they will expand their market share This means Tesla will be in a less secure position in the future when its faced with high quality but low cost home battery systems coming out of China Footnotes Or VAT as they seemed to think it was

by Peter Gabriel Album So 1986 Charted 26 Get the Sheet Music License This Song songfacts Artistfacts Lyrics Songimage In Your Eyes Peter Gabriel According to Gabriel the lyrics could refer to either the love between a man and woman or the relationship between a person and God African musician Youssou NDour sang backup In 1991 Gabriel performed this in NDours native country of Senegal before a crowd of 70000 This was featured in the 1989 movie Say Anything in a scene where John Cusack plays this from a Boom Box he holds over his head to win the heart of Ione Skye Cameron Crowe who directed the film was going to use Billy Idols Got To Be A Lover but it didnt work with the scene Crowe got the idea to use this when he played a tape from his wedding which had the song on it Because it was a deeply personal song Gabriel did not want to let him use it but when Crowe called and sent him a tape of the movie Gabriel loved it The producers of Say Anything see a still were charged about 200000 to use the song but it was worth the price as it became one of the most famous scenes in movie history The scene became a cultural touchstone which was a little strange for Gabriel He told Rolling Stone in 2012 Ive talked to John Cusack about that Were sort of trapped together in a minuscule moment of contemporary culture Gabriel combined various real and electronic instruments to create the song He worked the Fairlight CMI synthesizer and the Linn drum machine and also played piano Other musicians on the track along with NDour were David Rhodes guitar backing vocals Jerry Marotta drums Richard Tee piano Larry Klein Tony Levin bass Manu Katche drums talking drum percussion Ronnie Bright bass vocals Jim Kerr from Simple Minds Michael Been backing vocals A special 714 mix of this song was released to radio stations by Geffen Records It features extended singing by Youssou NDour This promotional copy also included a 615 version of the song and an 836 of Gabriels Biko This is one of the few slow songs that gets consistent airplay on rock radio It was not real popular when it came out but continues to get constant airplay on a variety of formats as listeners never seem to tire of it The band SR71 also does a cover of this song They performed it live at the 2004 Gravity Games In 1994 Gabriel did a version of In Your Eyes live which appears on Disc 2 of the double CD set of Secret World Live and lasts 1134 On this version he improvises a lot in the song with the backup singers The singerguitarist Jeffrey Gaines recorded a popular version of this song that got a lot of airplay on Adult Contemporary radio and appears on his 2001 album Always Be Gaines writes most of his own material but his cover of In Your Eyes has become his bestknown work When we asked him about performing a song written by someone else he replied The conviction I have within that material is my joy of singing Please or register to post comments Comments 47 Kathleen from Maryland The lyrics for the section at the end thats sung in Wolof is Sa bet chi lamp chi tangaay sa bet maangi ci biir From what Ive been able to figure out this translates to Your eye the heat the light I am inside So that would be In your eyes the light the heat I am complete wouldnt you agree At the very least its In your eyes the light the heat which is whats being said in English Kathleen from Maryland Steve It features Youssou NDour singing at the end of the song and that part was translated into his native Wolof Wolof is the native language of Senegal Glenn from In The Back Of Your Mind Its my understanding that this song was NOT written by Peter Gabriel at all and that it was written by a Frederic Robert Vitani Any truth to that Hes listed on a bunch of credits as being the writer and Gabriel the performer of this great classic song Steve from Indiana I would like to know about the language that was chanted in some versions This is what someone put down as a language but I yet to find out if it is the correct spelling Language and meaning would be great if you know Thank you Here is the copied version of the lyrics Im referring to sowot silang quasi tangai sowot manganchibi Nicole from Salt Lake City I really really really hope that it IS Daniel Lanois posting a comment on these song lyrics about the song not being about Arquette Its almost believable Well written no trollish mistakes Freaking brilliant producer and musician but why would he be found on this site in the first place le sigh PS Daniel if that is you I loved I Love You Great song Norm from Vancouver Bc This is what I feel the song is saying I have put the actual lyrics in quotes and my comments after the quoted lyrics When I refer to God I am refering to the unexplainable source responsible for all creation and whatever your individual perception of that is love I get so lost sometimes Love is God and sometimes we live our lives without God in our hearts days pass and this emptiness fills my heart When we live without God in our heart we feel less whole our heart feels empty there is something missing when I want to run away I drive off in my car but whichever way I go I come back to the place you are The solution to leading a more fulfilling life is not running away but finding God and He is everywhere so you can find Him wherever you are all my instincts they return Once you live life with Gods love in your heart and follow His guidance decisions come easily and the grand facade so soon will burn Life as we know it is an Illusion the closer we are connected to God the more we will be able to see through that Illusion without a noise without my pride The stillness and silence achieved through the practice of meditation is the method to dissolving the ego which clears the path to aligning yourself with God I reach out from the inside Itâs all about Internal transformation in your eyes the light the heat in your eyes I am complete God is the light and the heat and in His eyes you are complete in your eyes I see the doorway to a thousand churches There are many different religions with different stories trying to explain the unexplainable they are all pointing to the same doorway in your eyes the resolution of all the fruitless searches When we live to find happiness through acquiring material possessions we find that the happiness is very short lived in your eyes I see the light and the heat in your eyes oh I want to be that complete I want to touch the light the heat I see in your eyes We are all a fragment of light and heat of God Behind the Illusion we all have the potential to achieve god consciousness When we feel empty inside it is our desire to return to that consciousness and be returned to the original source of light and heat love I dont like to see so much pain so much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away Pain and suffering comes from not living in the present moment Suffering comes from regretting the past or fearing the future I get so tired of working so hard for out survival I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive When you are truly inline with God it is a state of being no longer striving to succeed Lalah from Wasilla Ak Int he movie say Anything this song is also playing in the background of the backseatofcar scene Tony from Vancouver Wa David Arquette said on the Howard Stern show that this song was written by Peter Gabriel for Rosanna Arquette Stimpson from Salem Ma This has become one of my all time favorite songsI think that like most great poetry it can be taken several ways My favorite version is the one from his 1994 tour with Paule Cole You can tell she was having the time of her life Dom from Perth Australia My god what can i say everytime i listened to the beautiful so my goose bumpsstart and if your really thinking of someone so dear to youyou cant help but drop a tear or toowould have to say that would be my wedding songtheres only one of a kind an thats itwell done pete for a song we all listenif we are listening to it aloneits not strange to say that really it involves 2 people or more Steph from Claverack Ny It tells of the love that one feels you can only hope to have something that strong in your lifetime How many times have you been in your car listening to this song been immediately transported to the glow that true love carries Amazingly great song holds up for all time Sad and happy all rolled into one Makes you heart cry Theresa from Murfreesboro Tn The best love song of the 80s Erika from Vernon Ct One of my favorite songs hands down by ANY artist I like a few others here have always believed that this song was about the line between physical and spiritual ectasy As is is there a line and how do you know which is which But something that Ive never been able to find an answer to the video for this song features clips from a old movie Clips from the same movie I think are also used in the video for David Bowies Hallo Spaceboy Anyone have any ideas Thom from Carson City Nv I feel this song reaches out further than just being a love song between a man and woman Or a spirritual song between God and man My Daughter recently moved to the west coast and I thought I would be able to handle it better than I am I have always loved Peter Gabriels work but never gave this song much thought till I was watching a TV show about a father and daughter who were sepporated by his death and this song started playing at the end of the show and the tears shot out of me Peter Gabriel Martha from Kdh Nc I can see how this can be a love song but I see it as a song of love for God or the creator or whatever one wants to call it I think that with God there is no hiding anything God knows all and sees all and the song seems to be saying that while I am just human and have flaws and share this world with all other human activity of various sorts I want to be seen by you God for the good and perfect person that I want to be Its like Gabriel is saying I Age from Cville Pa This song is the perfect mix between beautiful love lyrics and captivating musicianship Kevin from Springfield Pa jeffrey gaines cover is great a perfect song Tom from Hershey Pa I have this one on my ipod and jog to it It has a great running beat especially the Gaines version Peter from Huddersfield England Agree wholeheartedly with Paigeone of the best lovesongs

Issues portal on SourceWatch a project of CoalSwarm and the Center for Media and Democracy See here for help on adding material to CoalSwarm Kenneth C Coleman Station is a coalfired power station owned and operated by Big Rivers Electric Corporation near Hawesville in Hancock County Kentucky In May 2014 Big Rivers deactivated the Coleman coal plant The move came after the plants two largest customers aluminum smelters owned and operated by Century Aluminum Co terminated a longterm power supply agreement with Big Rivers and started buying less expensive electricity off the wholesale power market Big Rivers is trying to sell the plant while retaining the possibility of restarting the plant in a few years The coop is also is evaluating a possible conversion of Coleman to natural gas In February 2017 FERC denied Big Rivers request to keep Coleman connected to the Midwest Independent System MISO and denied a rehearing on the issue in December 2017 Contents 1 Plant Data 2 Emissions

issued a study commissioned by the Clean Air Task Force a nonprofit research and advocacy organization quantifying the deaths and other health effects attributable to fine particle pollution from coalfired power plants The study found that over 13000 deaths and tens of thousands of cases of chronic bronchitis acute bronchitis asthmarelated episodes and asthmarelated emergency room visits congestive heart failure acute myocardial infarction dysrhythmia ischemic heart disease chronic lung disease peneumonia each year are attributable to fine particle pollution from US coalfired power plants Fine particle pollution is formed from a combination of soot acid droplets and heavy metals formed from sulfur dioxide nitrogen oxide and soot Among those particles the most dangerous are the smallest smaller than 25 microns which are so tiny that they can evade the lungs natural defenses enter the bloodstream and be transported to vital organs Impacts are especially severe among the elderly children and those with respiratory disease Lowincome and minority populations are disproportionately impacted as well due to the tendency of companies to avoid locating power plants upwind of affluent communities The table below estimates the death and illness attributable to the Coleman Station Abt assigned a value of 7300000 to each 2010 mortality based on a range of government and private studies Valuations of illnesses ranged from 52 for an asthma episode to 440000 for a case of chronic bronchitis Table 1 Death and disease attributable to fine particle pollution from the

Features The return of eugenics Researchers dont like the word but theyre running ahead with the idea and Britain is at the forefront Fraser Nelson Fraser Nelson 2 April 2016 900 AM The only way of cutting off the constant stream of idiots and imbeciles and feebleminded persons who help to fill our prisons and workhouses reformatories and asylums is to prevent those who are known to be mentally defective from producing offspring Undoubtedly the best way of doing this is to place these defectives under control Even if this were a hardship to the individual it would be necessary for the sake of protecting the race The Spectator 25 May 1912 Its comforting now to think of eugenics as an evil that sprang from the blackness of Nazi hearts Were familiar with the argument some men are born great some as weaklings and both pass the traits on to their children So to improve society the logic goes we must encourage the best to breed and do what we can to stop the stupid sick and malign from passing on their defective genes This was taken to a genocidal extreme by Hitler but the intellectual foundations were laid in England And the idea is now making a startling comeback A hundred years ago the eugenic mission involved a handful of crude tools bribing the right people to have larger families sterilising the weakest Now stunning advances in science are creating options early eugenicists could only dream about Todays IVF technology already allows us to screen embryos for inherited diseases such as cystic fibrosis But soon parents will be able to check for all manner of traits from hair colour to character and choose their perfect child The era of designer babies long portrayed by dystopian novelists and screenwriters is fast arriving According to Hank Greely a Stanford professor in law and biosciences the next couple of generations may be the last to accept pot luck with procreation Doing so he adds may soon be seen as downright irresponsible In his forthcoming book The End of Sex he explains a brave new world in which mothers will be given a menu with various biological options But even he shies away from the word that sums all this up For Professor Greely and almost all of those in the new bioscience eugenics is never mentioned as if to avoid admitting that history has swung full circle The word eugenics was coined in 1883 by Francis Galton a polymath who invented fingerprinting and many of the techniques of modern statistical research He started with a hunch that so many great men come from the same families because genius is hereditary Fascinated by the evolutionary arguments of his cousin Charles Darwin he wondered whether advances in health care and welfare had sullied the national gene pool because they allowed more of the sick and disabled not just to survive but to lead normal family lives He went off to collect data and came back with his theory of This was hailed not as a theory but as a discovery a new science of human life with laws as immutable as Newtons A race of gifted men could be created he said as surely as we can propagate idiots by mating cretins Some of the most revered names in British history lapped this up As Home Secretary Churchill wrote to the Prime Minister urging him to do more to stop the multiplication of the unfit Darwin himself would come to fear that if the prudent avoid marriage whilst the reckless marry inferior members tend to supplant the better members of society By 1908 a Royal Commission conveyed the grave news that there were 150000 feebleminded people in Britain So what was to be done with them As one reformer put it They must be acknowledged dependents of the Statebut with complete and permanent loss of all civil rights including not only the franchise but civil freedom and fatherhood This was William Beveridge founder of the welfare state A report in The Times conveyed matteroffactly the substance of a lecture given to the Eugenics Society following survey of the people of Devon by a Dr Grunby As to imbeciles he said there was only one thing to do with them exterminate them as they arose He put forward the suggestion on purely humanitarian grounds Eugenics came to stand for modernity to believe in it was to declare ones belief in science and rationalism to be liberated from religious qualms Some of the most revered names in English history lapped all of this up The Bishop of Birmingham called for sterilisation Bertrand Russell looked forward to a eugenic era driven by science not religion We may perhaps assume that if people grow less superstitious government will acquire the right to sterilise those who are not considered desirable as parents he argued in 1924 When a Sterilisation Bill was brought before Parliament in 1931 it had the backing of social workers dozens of local authorities and the medical and scientific establishment It was defeated but the agenda continued The Nuremberg Trials established that the Nazis latecomers to all this carried out some 400000 compulsory sterilisations a figure so horrific it has eclipsed the 60000 in Sweden and a similar number in the United States The idea of a biological divide between the fit and the unfit was no Nazi invention It was the conventional wisdom of the developed world And this is the problem Because we forget how badly Britain fell for eugenics we fail to recognise the basic arguments of eugenics when they reappear which they are now doing with remarkable regularity Consider Adam Perkins a lecturer at Kings College London who has published a study echoing the Royal Commissions attempt to quantify the feebleminded The group he aims to study are the employmentresistant those disposed to a life on welfare as a result of genetic predispositions and having grown up in workless homes With Galtonesque precision he estimates some 98040 extra people were created by the welfare state over 15 years due to a rise in welfare spending They represent an evergreater burden on the more functional citizens In 1938 Germans were shown a poster of a cripple and invited to be angry about the costs of caring for him 60000 Reichmarks Dr Perkins tries a softer version of this general idea calculating the 12000ahead annual cost of the new British untermensch not just in welfare but the crimes they will probably commit His remedy That Camerons government restricts welfare so that claimants have fewer children A perfect eugenic solution There is nothing monstrous about Dr Perkins himself a former welfare claimant nor anything very original about his book He simply joins the dots of recent academic research and spells out what others wont His footnotes show the growing academic pedigree of the new eugenics work has been done to identify genes relating to alcoholism criminality sporting success even premature ejaculation Extrapolations are now made about how far the quality of human stock worldwide has been eroded by health care and welfare In academia the word eugenics may be controversial but the idea is not To Professor Julian Savulescu editorinchief of the Journal of Medical Ethics the ability to apply rational design to humanity through gene editing offers a chance to improve the human stock one baby at a time When it comes to screening out personality flaws such as potential alcoholism psychopathy and disposition to violence he said a while ago you could argue that people have a moral obligation to select ethically better children Meanwhile the scientific pursuit of ethically better children is advancing rapidly Since Louise Brown was conceived in a laboratory 38 years ago the worlds first IVF baby the treatment has become mainstream sought by 100 women a day in Britain Developments in IVF mean that today several embryos can be fertilised and screened for diseases with the winner implanted in the uterus The next step was taken last year when Chinese scientists succeeded in modifying the genes of a fertilised embryo It was rather messy they attempted to treat 86 nonviable embryos and failed in most cases So they abandoned This the genetic modification of human embryos is what causes the concern But here and at each point in the new eugenics you can argue where is the moral problem There are no deaths no sterilisations no abortions just a scientifically guided conception The potential avoidance of disease to the betterment of humanity So who could complain One answer came four months ago when 150 scientists and academics called for a complete shutdown of human gene editing In a letter released before a summit in Washington DC they argued that the technology would open the door to an era of hightech consumer eugenics with affluent parents choosing the best qualities and creating a new form of genetically modified human To these scientists the complex issue boils down to a simple point We must not engineer the genes we pass on to our descendants Such concerns can not be heard from the British government which recently helped to build the Francis Crick Institute a new nerve centre for biomedical research A few weeks ago the institute was given authorisation to begin a new controversial geneediting technique known as CRISPRCas9 To supporters this is proof of Britains position at the cutting edge of research To critics it is proof that Britain one of the few countries that does not ban the use of fertilised human embryos in experiments is again rushing headlong into eugenic science with minimal debate On the rare occasions the matter is raised in Parliament ministers say that they do not support eugenics But as Chris Patten has pointed out in the Lords that is a meaningless statement if there is no attempt to define the term To David Galton who has written more about the subject than any British academic the definition is simple If you use science to make the best of genes handed down to the next generation thats eugenics Sweeping the word under the carpet or sanitising it with another name merely conceals the appalling abuses that have occurred in the The idea of consumer eugenics is no futurist fantasy Already sperm banks boast about screening for everything from autism to red hair 12000 buys you the chance to choose which embryo to implant And 400 buys spermsorting the better to conceive a boy or a girl And even in the slums of India women desperate for a boy will pay for antenatal screening to identify and abort girls It doesnt take government to pursue eugenics parents will do it themselves The Francis Crick Institute says its geneediting research has nothing to do with eugenics even British law prohibits pregnancies from geneedited embryos and its researchers plan to destroy them after seven days Instead it aims to learn about the role of genes in miscarriage But if its research improves geneediting technology less scrupulous scientists can make use of that This is why scholars like Robert Pollack a professor at Columbia University want a moratorium on of germline DNA modification Imagine that many years hence there are two sorts of people those who carry the messy inheritance of their ancestors and The experiments being carried out in London are worrying he says precisely because the British have such a good success rate It is not failure but success that concerns me says Professor Pollack And for that concern there are few venues more troubling than the Crick Institute it is as likely as any place in the world to do this without making any distracting avoidable mistakes So some 130 years after Britain gave the world the idea of perfecting humanity we are once again at the cutting edge of this troubled science For good or ill eugenics is back See

Opinion Searching for psychiatrists with expertise in autism by Matthew Siegel 17 October 2014 9 Comments Mental illness can take an enormous toll on anyone But when disorders such as depression or anxiety occur in people with autism doctors often fail to recognize them The fallout from this can be devastating Last month a mother told me the story of her adolescent son with highfunctioning autism After graduating from high school the boy suddenly stopped talking and his appetite plummeted A years worth of doctors visits and hospitalizations yielded no improvement Eventually the mother found a child psychiatrist with expertise in autism This doctor quickly diagnosed her son with catatonic depression and prescribed treatment that restored his speech overnight and brought him back to health within a few months This mothers story underscores the tremendous need for psychiatrists who are trained to care for individuals with autism There are vanishingly few of these professionals A study published earlier this year suggests most child psychiatrists are exposed to fewer than ten children with autism or intellectual disability during their two years of training This is particularly concerning given that autism substantially increases the risk of having a psychiatric disorder such as anxiety depression or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder The lack of psychiatrists with specific training in autism contributes to misdiagnoses and misguided treatments A 2012 study found that 60 percent of psychiatric diagnoses among people with autism were no longer supported when the assessment took into account behaviors typically seen in autism such as insistence on sameness or repetitive rocking Autism centers across the country are looking for expert physicians but there arent any to be found When I was trying to recruit a psychiatrist with expertise in autism for the Center for Autism and Developmental Disorders in Portland Maine I asked colleagues at other autism centers for their advice The general consensus If you find one let us know We have been recruiting for six months One way to address this critical shortage is to offer formal fellowship training for psychiatrists in the assessment and treatment of individuals with autism To catalyze this eight leaders in the field and I formed a training consortium and developed the curriculum for a oneyear fellowship in developmental neuropsychiatry The fellowship aims to produce psychiatrists who are trained to assess and treat mental illness in people with developmental disorders These professionals will learn treatment approaches tailored to individuals with autism including applied behavioral analysis communication interventions and occupational therapy This is in addition to standard psychiatric treatment approaches such as psychopharmacology and psychotherapyFellows will also be exposed to autism research methods At least eight major academic institutions are interested in offering the fellowship The training consortium is seeking both guidance and financial support from some of the leading autism organizations Its worth noting that training in two other subspecialties developmental behavioral pediatrics and child psychiatry began with philanthropic training initiatives These have since evolved into large governmentfunded physiciantraining programs We hope the developmental neuropsychiatry fellowship follows that same path and greatly expands the number of psychiatrists specifically trained to help people with autism No one should spend a year suffering from a serious illness that can be diagnosed in a few minutes with the right training Matthew Siegel is director of the Developmental Disorders Program of Spring Harbor Hospital in Portland Maine clinical investigator at the Maine Medical Center Research Institute and assistant professor of psychiatry and pediatrics at Tufts University in Massachusetts TAGS anxiety attention autism behavioral interventions depression intellectual disability
