In Alaska Clause Samples
The "In Alaska" clause specifies that certain terms, conditions, or obligations outlined in the agreement are applicable specifically within the state of Alaska. This clause may be used to clarify that legal requirements, operational procedures, or regulatory compliance pertain only when activities occur in Alaska, such as employment practices, sales, or service delivery. Its core function is to geographically limit the scope of the agreement, ensuring that parties understand where specific provisions are enforceable and reducing ambiguity regarding jurisdictional applicability.
In Alaska. For purposes of determining whether the 85% participation threshold has been met, the full amount of the Tribal Allocation Voting Percentage as listed on Exhibit C shall be used for each litigating Alaska Tribal Health Organization, litigating Alaska inter-tribal consortium, or litigating Alaska Tribe which is participating in the settlement. In the event that a litigating Alaska Tribe which is not listed in Exhibit C, and which is a member of a listed Alaska Tribal Health Organization or Alaska inter- tribal consortium, affirmatively decides not to participate in the settlement, then the Tribal Allocation Voting Percentage, as computed pursuant to the footnote set forth in Exhibit C, of that nonparticipating Alaska Tribe shall be calculated and deducted from the Tribal Allocation Voting Percentage of its Tribal Health Organization or inter-tribal consortium for purposes of determining whether the 85% participation threshold has been met.
In Alaska. The State expects to release an RFP to conduct the feasibility study in the second quarter 2012. APCDs are large-scale databases that systematically collect and aggregate claims data from public and private payers. The Commission and the State recognize that APCDs are valuable sources of information about outpatient services and health care payments for those states that have implemented them. The Commission identified the following areas where an APCD may support the State’s cost containment and health care quality improvements: Support public reporting on price and quality of health care services Analyze population health management efforts of providers and payers Support clinical performance measurement reporting for payers Measure clinical quality improvement efforts by providers Quantify community health analyses by public health officials Design and implementation of payment and delivery system reforms for policy makers Assess health care utilization, cost and quality trends for hospital and community health planners An APCD can also serve to minimize the reporting burden on health care providers as the aggregated data from payers is an efficient alternative to collecting data directly from individual providers. Alaska will work with the Health Care Commission and other stakeholders to seek methods to include Medicare, Medicaid, Commercial payers and self-insured companies in the APCD.
