DocChat Application Launches to Provide Virtual Medical Treatment

NEW YORK, NY – 18 Sep, 2015 – Dr. Steve Okhravi announces the launch of DocChat, a telemedicine platform that allows patients to consult with board-certified physicians through live video 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

Dr. Okhravi, Emergency Physician and founder of DocChat, says, “Healthcare should be a patient’s right rather than a privilege. Lack of access to physicians is an enormous problem that we are glad to help mitigate.”

DocChat remedies problems that have plagued the health care industry for decades. This app allows physicians to make safe and effective, virtual house calls to patients in 15 U.S. states and growing. Patients in rural areas no longer have to worry about access to quality physicians. Travelers no longer have to worry about going to a minute clinic without fully vetting their providers, either.

There are numerous benefits to patients utilizing DocChat. First, the wait time is fifteen minutes or less. If the wait exceeds fifteen minutes, the visit is free. Second, DocChat brings personal service back to health care because all physicians are available via cell phone 24/7 a week to answer questions about the patients’ visit. Finally, DocChat’s physicians are all trained in emergency medicine and are able to apply these techniques to every situation for a quicker, more effective diagnosis and treatment plan.

“Don’t take my word for it, look how effective DocChat is based on the statistics,” says Dr. Okhravi.

In a recent study conducted by DocChat, they served 500 geriatric nursing home patients and were able to reduce ER utilization from 50% to 2.5%, which is a 95% total reduction. Physicians on the App successfully treated hyperkalemia, sepsis, and bilateral pneumonia using DocChat. These statistics translate to non-nursing home patients as well. Patients utilizing DocChat can expect to save themselves time, money, and of course, suffering.

DocChat is not meant to treat every emergency. However, a consultation with a DocChat physician may save patients a trip to the local emergency room. DocChat can be downloaded at the apple store, on Google play, or on amazon.

Square Reader, Wells Fargo, Costco and Chase Credit Card Processing Rates – Who is Best by Merchant Services

$

DALLAS, TX – 18 Sep, 2015 – Merchant Resources compares its credit card merchant services to those of Square Reader, Wells Fargo Merchant Services, Chase Merchant Services and Costco Merchant Services.

After Merchant Resources called the 1-800 listed on each of these merchant services, a variety of differences and cost of each of these credit card merchant services have been discovered. The compilation below:

Square Reader*

• Base Retail Visa/MC rate of 2.75% • Key Entered Rate of 3.5%

The square reader is a good solution for merchants that are seasonal, since “SquareUp” does not have any monthly fees. However, any merchant that is consistently over $100 in Visa/MasterCard volume per month, there are better options.

Wells Fargo**

• Base Retail Visa/MC rate of 1.8% • Lease of terminal for $35 a month or purchase terminal for $500 • $75 yearly fee

** Merchant Resources has been in the business for over 20 years, knowing “for a fact” that the rate, no matter what the card is, is NOT 1.8%. It seems Wells Fargo has to train their merchant services department what the actual fees are.

Costco

• Base Retail Visa/MC rate of 1.38% and 19 cents • Rewards Cards Visa/MC rate of 1.99% and 19 cents • Business Cards Visa/MC rate of 2.65% and 29 cents • Foreign and Government Cards Visa/MC 3.55% and 29 cents • Lease of terminal for $30 a month for 2 years or purchase terminal for $489 • Need to be an executive Costco member, so you need to pay $110 a year

Chase Paymentech

• Base Retail Visa/MC rate of 1.99% and 25 cents • Mid qualified rate of 2.68% and 25 cents • Non qualified rate of 3.76% and 25 cents • $100 fee to get setup • $25 monthly minimum • Monthly fee of $9.95 • Free terminal with a 2 year contract

Merchant Resources offers the following:

• 1.25% for debit/credit card with no pin • 1.65% for base Visa and MasterCard, Discover • No Monthly Fees • FREE EMV Terminal with Pin Pad, Swiper for your cellular phone, or POS for restaurant

Merchant Resources offers custom quotes to fit your particular business.

The much anticipated Version 3.0 release of Easy Sketch Pro is finally here, and it offers an abundant array of exciting new features which make it seriously worth your while to take a closer look.

As the name suggests, Easy Sketch Pro empowers you to create your own professional looking whiteboard video animations, and with Version 3.0 it has never been easier. With a massive inbuilt library of images and other content, you don’t have to worry if you cannot draw or if you’re not the most creative kid on the block – just grab the image you like, place it anywhere on the canvas and watch the software magically bring your new animation instantly to life.

For newcomers, Easy Sketch Pro has a few runs on the board and has been in circulation for a number of years now, with over 55,000 copies purchased. It has an established reputation as being the ‘go-to tool’ for the layman user. If you’re a ‘technical dunce’ there’s no need to worry. The software does not require a huge learning curve and you can be creating your very own animations in just minutes – perfect for the busy operator who simply hasn’t got the spare time to learn complicated new procedures and concepts.

Version 3.0 has some fabulously compelling new reasons to download your own copy. For example, it has a complete new easy to use dashboard and it blitzes previous releases by resolving a few of the old clunky quirks – such as slow video rendering and music selection. Most impressively though, with some smart new interactive features Easy Sketch Pro 3.0 raises the bar of standards for other whiteboard animation software packages to aspire to.

A host of remarkable new interactive features brilliantly enable you to direct consumers of your video creations to earn your campaign objectives and encourage sharing and distribution of your content – thereby enhancing your brand or product.

Some of the fantastic new features according to dot com flyboys and creators, Paul Lynch and Andrew Fox include:

 • Easily add & display YouTube and Vimeo videos within your presentation – a fantastic video in video capability.

 • Facebook, Twitter and other dynamic hot spot overlays are a breeze.

 • There are literally hundreds of ready-made overlay icons for you to incorporate as interactive elements.

 • URL redirects with calls to action

 • Branding of individual videos – add your own logo, web links and much more!

As for reporting and post production, a full suite of analysis capabilities is also provided for you to intelligently track the effectiveness of your published animations.

You can track viewer engagement levels. The software provides useful reporting of click through rates of the various smart links and interactive elements in your presentations. You also get a wealth of tracking data, such as the location of your viewers, the nature of their interaction with your hot spot elements and your smart overlay content and much more – too many parameters to list here.

When it comes to the price you cannot get a better deal than right now. Gone are the days of spending $500 or even $1000 per 30 seconds of video play time. 

For a limited time you can take advantage of an amazingly low introductory price of $29. Anyone can now afford to access the complete software package and begin creating their own professional doodle videos today.

To ensure that Caribbean farmers add value to their cocoa, this partnership will establish a chocolate-making factory in Barbados on a 30 acre plot of land donated by Barbadian philanthropist Eddie Edghill and his family.

“Over the past couple of weeks, the plight of Dominica has been weighing heavily on us here at SPAGnVOLA. As such, my wife Crisoire and I have decided to move quickly to launch the new Dominica chocolate bar as a fundraiser to help in whatever way we can,” says SPAGnVOLA’s CEO, Eric Reid.

Alex Timin, owner of Impact Martial Arts in Naples, Florida, announces his involvement in the newest volume of the best-selling series BULLYPROOF: Unleash the Hero Inside Your Kid.

This latest volume, which is scheduled for release in October, will include contributions from Timin and ten other experts in various industries that address the growing problem of bullying.

“So many children are bullied every day, and the consequences can be devastating,” says Timin, a lifelong martial artist.  “Kids who are the targets of bullying desperately need help and support – along with real solutions for dealing with the situation. That’s where we come in. We can give children solid bully-defense skills, help build their confidence, and inspire them to stand up for themselves and each other so they won’t be victims. With this chapter in BULLYPROOF, I’m helping lead the mission to keep our kids safe.”

BULLYPROOF: Unleash the Hero Inside Your Kid, is a project started by Alex Changho, a martial arts professional and business coach.

“There are many programs out that are meant to help parents and kids deal with bullying,” says Changho.  “But so many of them are designed to ‘keep the peace’  or ‘reduce conflict at schools’ instead of actually addressing the real problem.  The problem is not bullying in itself.  The problem is the negative effects that bullying has on kids.  The solution is to bullyproof the individual, by empowering more people, and helping them feel great about themselves.  When inevitably the bullying happens, it will be ineffective.”

Timin’s involvement in the BULLYPROOF project will bring an effective, working solution to the families of Naples  Along with the release of the book, Impact Martial Arts will hold free workshops, resources, and training for the community.

“Bullying is an epidemic that effects kids of every age, gender, ethnicity, & social status,” explains Harrington.  “The only way to become ‘bullyproof’ is to become educated.  This book does exactly that.”

BULLYPROOF: Unleash the Hero Inside Your Kid, is a project started by Alex Changho, a martial arts professional and business coach.

“There are many programs out that are meant to help parents and kids deal with bullying,” says Changho.  “But so many of them are designed to ‘keep the peace’  or ‘reduce conflict at schools’ instead of actually addressing the real problem.  The problem is not bullying in itself.  The problem is the negative effects that bullying has on kids.  The solution is to bullyproof the individual, by empowering more people, and helping them feel great about themselves.  When inevitably the bullying happens, it will be ineffective.”

Harrington’s involvement in the BULLYPROOF project will bring an effective, working solution to the families of Valparaiso, Demotte, and Portage, Indiana, where Harrington owns martial arts schools with his wife, Brooke.  Along with the release of the book, the Harringtons will hold free workshops, resources, and training for the community.

The War over Invisible Code: COBOL-IT Shaking Up Micro Focus’ COBOL Monopoly

$

85% of business transactions worldwide run on code written in the COBOL language. Micro Focus has had a near monopoly for managing it on open systems. But a new challenger, with demonstrably superior services at 50-80% less cost, is causing many Fortune-class customers to convert.

18 Sep, 2015 – Few have heard its name, but everybody uses it. Code written in the COBOL programming language powers most digital transactions worldwide, each day processing 200 times as many transactions as there are Google searches. Widely used by Fortune 2,000 companies around the world, its business oriented design has made it the top programming language for banks, payment companies and other financial institutions, driving an enormous market for COBOL software and services.

Nearly all of the market on open systems – well over $200 million – has been owned by Micro Focus (LON:MCRO). But the legacy management Goliath now finds itself challenged, as France-based COBOL-IT gains traction in the US with the allure of comparable performance and reliability at a typical cost reduction of 50-80%.

COBOL-IT boasts such clients as the French Ministry of Finance, Pepsico, Carrefour, Axway, French Yellow Pages, French Social Security, HSBC and Pelephone (Israel), among many others. Since coming to the US 6 years ago, COBOL-IT has already earned over 100 North American clients in the financial, retail and government sectors – 80% of them migrated directly from Micro Focus.

The latest company to migrate to COBOL-IT is one of the largest payment services providers in the world. The company recently signed a global OEM agreement with COBOL-IT, allowing them to build the COBOL portions of their software into their credit card handling application and distribute it directly to customers. The new implementation was tested, approved and implemented in less than six months.

“Thanks to constant acquisitions, companies running COBOL on open systems haven’t really had a choice except Micro Focus,” said Stephane Croce, CEO of COBOL-IT. But even as a new, relatively small competitor, Croce isn’t worried about being up against a giant as large as Micro Focus. “The monopoly puts a lot of IT managers and CIOs in tough positions, many of them even using outdated versions of Micro Focus software simply to manage costs. The demand for an alternative is growing, opening up lots of opportunities. We’re more affordable, more flexible, and our code is more evolved. If we’re playing David, well, we’ve got a great slingshot.”

COBOL-IT has devoted considerable efforts to make transitioning to their services as quick and seamless as possible while mitigating risks that come with large-scale code migrations. Their compiler and pre compilers by design are compatible with a wide range of platforms, and COBOL-IT is in the process of expanding its already large tech support base in the US to further assist with implementation.

COBOL-IT Director of Technical Services Bob Cavanagh explains, “When a large corporation indicates that they are exploring alternatives to their COBOL compiler, you can be certain they have a high degree of motivation. Fortune 2,000 companies don’t do migrations like this unless the benefits are clear.”

COBOL-IT’s products include a compiler suite, a family of pre-compilers and a developer studio/IDE. The entire COBOL-IT Product Suite runs on Windows, Enterprise Linux, z/Linux and UNIX platforms. The COBOL-IT Compiler Suite includes an ANSI-compliant COBOL compiler and utilities. The COBOL-IT Developer Studio allows programmers to develop, debug and maintain COBOL code in a familiar Eclipse based IDE. The CitSQL pre-compiler family allows users to seamlessly integrate COBOL programs with embedded SQL statements to MySQL, PostgreSQL and ODBC-compliant databases into their application. COBOL-IT’s North American growth has led the company to seek technical and commercial partners in order to take advantage of the growing opportunities for migration.
