A system and method for detecting billing errors using predictive models is provided. The system includes a computer system and a billing error detection engine capable of detecting billing errors using predictive modeling techniques. The system receives and pre-processes billing information. The system then applies one or more predictive models to the information to identify billing errors. The results could be optionally sent to, and reviewed by, third party auditors, whereby their feedback could be incorporated into the results. A final report is generated by the system which indicates billing errors that require correction, thereby allowing an entity to correct such errors and prevent revenue leakage.

A method, apparatus, system, and article of manufacture provide the ability to utilize fingertip tracking technology during the course of a medical examination. A sensor is mounted on a fingertip of a finger of a first person. Such a sensor is communicatively coupled to a computer to record measurements. The sensor is calibrated using a known target. The finger having the sensor is then engaged to perform a medical examination directly on a second person. Measurements are obtained from the sensor on the fingertip during the medical examination. Data is obtained (e.g., via calculations or interpolation) based on the measurements.
