You don’t need “constant information.” It’s a waste of your money and a scam perpetrated by the credit bureaus to generate additional income for them.

Toledo, OH and La Jolla, CA (PRWEB) December 30, 2011

As a part of the development of its new Center for Wound Care and Hyperbaric Medicine, The University of Toledo Medical Center (UTMC) recently took delivery of its new state-of-the-art Multiplace Hyperbaric Chamber system, manufactured by OxyHeal Medical Systems, Inc. This hyperbaric chamber will provide UTMC with the ability to easily provide hyperbaric oxygen therapy to a variety of patients.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is a treatment modality where the patient breathes 100% oxygen while at increased pressure inside the chamber. It s used for a variety of indications including non-healing diabetic ulcers on patients who may be in danger of losing limbs due to complications from complications of the disease. In addition, the chamber is configured to be able to perform more emergent treatments – such as carbon monoxide poisoning – that require advance patient monitoring and support capabilities. A complete listing of the approved uses of hyperbaric oxygen therapy as defined by the Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Committee can be found on the Undersea and Hyperbaric Medical Society website at http://www.uhms.org.

The Model OxyHeal 8000-10 multiplace hyperbaric chamber is designed to treat up to ten (10) seated patients simultaneously. The chamber was delivered to UTMC and lifted into place within the hospital by a crane and slid into the building through a hole in the exterior wall. The “Omega” shaped geometry of the chamber provides the option for also treating up to four (4) supine patients (or a combination of seated and supine patients) at treatment pressures of up to 3 ATA or 45 psig internal pressure, providing the hospital with the capability to perform all standard FDA approved clinical HBOT treatments, to include adjunctive therapy for wound care and the ability to respond to more diving medical emergencies. Mr. Ted Gurnee, President and CEO of the chamber manufacturer, OxyHeal Health Group, said “We selected this chamber geometry, because it provided enhanced patient comfort, an easy level access for walking, wheelchair, and stretcher bound patients.” The 120-inch wide by 21-foot long chamber is being installed on the first floor of the hospital near the main entrance, ensuring easy access for both outpatient and inpatient treatments.

This custom designed system is made of special materials that meet the rigorous requirements of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers Pressure Vessels for Human Occupancy (ASME-PVHO-1) code. UTMC’s OxyHeal 8000-10 Omega geometry chamber is the first of this type in the United States and is the only multiplace (multiple patient) hyperbaric chamber system to be located in Northwest Ohio. Establishing a hyperbaric program with a top-tiered equipment; HBOT and wound management services provider; and training and research company such the OxyHeal Health Group®, UTMC continues to set the health care industry bar higher by increasing its repertoire of services as part of its mission of striving to develop and incorporate advancements in health care knowledge to improve the safety and quality of patient care

The OxyHeal 8000-10 was recently rigged into place within in the hospital and installation of the entire system will take put over the next several weeks. The clinic is currently scheduled to begin operation early in January 2012. Dr. Munier M.S. Nazzal, who currently the Chief of the Hospital’s Division of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, will expand his role and also become the Medical Director of the new Wound Healing and Hyperbaric Medicine Center.

The University of Toledo Medical Center (UTMC) plans to unfastened the comprehensive Wound Healing & Hyperbaric Medicine Center in January 2012. “The University decided to partner with a company capable of staffing and providing a large capacity hyperbaric capability and wound program that would expand the needs of UTMC’s existing Vascular and Surgery clinics,” said Ronald Goedde, Director of Hospital Budgets for UTMC. “After significant research and interviews with other providers, UTMC has chosen OxyHeal Health Group. OxyHeal’s strong clinical and manufacturing expertise was the clear choice for our long term partnership. OxyHeal in 6 short months manufactured an one of a kind ten (10) patient hyperbaric system integrated seamlessly designed into our Heart and Vascular Center. I must admit OxyHeal handled all of UTMC’s questions and concerns not only clinically but is actively teaming with whole the Hospital facility, physician, administrative, and financial staff to ensure a professional start to our important new program.”

My TU and Experian are 60 points higher than my equifax too. I have had 100 point differences though too at some points. Also check inquiries. When credit companies do inquiries on you, they seem to use equifax and experian more than TU and too many inquiries can drop your score.

It’s not a credit reporting agency. It’s just a monitoring service.Personally, I think credit monitoring services are a waste of money. You can easily monitor your own credit by spacing out your free credit reports from each credit bureau.

If you have a Capital One tease, you can get it through them. I use it every other day. It’s cheap 9.95 a month and you get all three along with credit scores and special e-mail alerts. It even has a program where you can see how your tallied would be affected by various scenarios (if I pay this card off, If I miss a payment, etc, etc.)Hope this answers your question.

Inno IFS-10 Fusion Splicer, $ 9990 at eFiberTools.com

Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB) December 04, 2011

EFiberTools.com introduces the Inno Instrument IFS-10 fusion splicer. The first fusion splicer in the US market truly able to compete with the name-brand manufacturers, but at a considerably lower price. The Inno is considered by some to be the ‘Best Fusion Splicer’ on the market, plus it’s only $ 9990 for the full kit.

Called The Fiber Master, the IFS-10 is manufactured in South Korea and should not be confused with the splicers out of China. The Inno uses core alignment technology and at only around 4.5 lbs the IFS-10 is designed for high-precision splicing applications, harsh weather conditions. The splicer is well-built with a friendly GUI with intuitive menu options, 350x splice capacity using lithium batteries, upgradable software with USB, and a feature not common anymore, a bi-directional monitor which can be positioned in front or rear.

EFiberTools.com is the only distributor currently with stock. Calibrations and repairs are done in their Phoenix location by factory trained technicians. Generous credits are available to trade-in your fusion splicer, working or not, with some exceptions.

“The Inno IFS-10 has been named the Best Fusion Splicer on the market, and is priced at only $ 9990. Many are tired of being gouged on prices and repairs due to artificially high prices in the US from companies like AFL and Fujikura”, states Daniel Parsons, Owner of eFiberTools.com

South Korea has become known more for quality electronic and other products and the Inno IFS-10 fusion splicer is more evidence of this. The IFS-9 was Inno’s first model but the company chose to wait until they perfected the IFS-10 before introducing it to the US and the “demanding” US customer.

Finally, US customers have a choice. The Inno IFS-10 is the first fusion splicer to hit the US market truly ready to compete against the long-held dominance of Fujikura, Fitel, Sumitomo, and Corning. Pricing on the Fujikura FSM-60s fusion splicer, for instance, is controlled by AFL and Fujikura. Together they have artificially inflated the price of the FSM-60s to US customers to be about twice as much as is paid in other countries outside of AFL’s control. Knowing this, why would anyone buy a Fujikura when they can get the quality in the Inno IFS-10 for 40% less? That’s a $ 6000 savings.

EFiberTools.com even offers a money-back guarantee and will send a free demo unit for a 5-day evaluation to select companies. With a price tag of only $ 9990, the IFS-10 is easily the best-value in a new core-alignment fusion splicer in the US market today. The complete splicing kit includes VF-78 fiber cleaver, heavy-duty case, battery, charger, cables, user documentation and software, plus an exclusive 2-year limited warranty with US service and support

Dealers desiring! EFiberTools is currently looking for resellers and manufacturer reps to market INNO products. Drop-shipped is available to recognized resellers. Special discounts are available to fiber optic training schools and other educational organizations. Quantity discounts are also available. Anyone interested in the Inno fusion splicers or cleavers should contact eFiberTools.com at sales@efibertools.com.

Find More Credit Monitoring Press Releases

Answer by Jim J
I was wondering that too. I have read that monitoring your own credit hit does not count against you but if a company does it I’m not sure the credit reporting agencies will be able to tell the difference between a company in business to do this and any other business. I think asking the credit bureau directly would be a good idea. The companion trying to clearing you the monitoring service would have a conflict of interest in answering that question and I wouldn’t trust the response.

Deerfield Beach, FL (PRWEB) November 30, 2011

Debt Management Credit Counseling Corp. http://www.dmcconline.org, a nonprofit credit counseling organization (“DMCC”), announced today they provide tip for consumers to maintain accurate information on credit reports in order to receive the best credit rating, services and interest rates from lenders. As more consumers are struggling to find employment, it is their credit reports that may distinguish two candidates apart. It is estimated that 50% of all consumer credit reports contain at least one error. Many errors result from the incorrect reporting from creditors to the credit bureaus, including nonpayment or late payments, misfiling by a department store credit line, a mix up betwixt family members with the same name, and accounts opened without the consumer’s approval by someone committing identity theft.

To begin the process of taking erroneous information from a consumer’s credit reports, DMCC first recommends obtaining the three costless credit reports from AnnualCreditReport.com. This is a procure site where consumers can have a complimentary credit report from each of the credit bureaus, Experian, Equifax and TransUnion once every twelve months. “Be weary of other sites offering free credit reports. Typically there is a catch such as having to sign up for a service” states Jessica Stokes, Education and Research Coordinator for DMCC. If errors are found, consumers should write a letter to the credit bureaus stating what specifically needs to be removed. Copies of this letter need to be certified mailed with return receipt requested to the creditor who reported the inaccurate information and each of the credit bureaus reporting this erroneous information.

“Monitoring your credit reports carefully to make sure the erroneous information is removed, is imperative,” stated Stokes. “Consumers need to place importance on following up on all disputed items to make sure when their credit report is subsequently pulled, creditors will be looking at accurate information.” Stokes teaches about the importance of maintaining records for everything. “Keep copies of all mail relating to the situation and write down names and phone numbers”. DMCC also advises to be patient. The dispute process can take months as the credit bureaus deal with millions of disputes on an ongoing basis. Consumers planning to finance a large purchase are advised to order their credit reports at least 90 days in advance in case there are errors that need to be corrected. For a sample letter to send to the creditors and bureaus, visit DMCC.

It is important to note that only inaccurate information may be removed from credit reports. It is illegal to dispute information that is correct. Consumers can read about their rights to dispute inaccurate credit report information under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Consumers with credit card accounts that are past due may want to consider enrolling the accounts in a debt management plan provided by a credit counseling agency licensed in the state they reside. Debt management plans typically provide lower monthly payments for consumers and some of the major creditors will re-age past due accounts and report them as current to the credit bureaus after the first couple plan payments are made.

About Debt Management Credit Counseling Corp.

DMCC is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) public charity committed to educating consumers on financial issues and providing personal assistance to consumers overextended with debt. Education is provided free of charge to consumers via seminars, workshops, a proprietary financial literacy program, and a vast array of online and printed materials. Free personal counseling is provided to consumers to identify the best options for the repayment of their debt. Consumers interested in speaking with a DMCC certified credit counselor may call (866) 618-3328 or request help at dmcconline.org. DMCC is a HUD Approved Housing Counseling Agency, is approved by the U.S. Trustee to provide bankruptcy counseling and education, and has an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.
