What is Claims Adjudication? An insurance claim must meet all eligibility requirements before it can be paid. Insurance companies use claims adjudication to determine whether they will cover a procedure or if the policyholder must pay out of pocket.
The lining of the small intestine has tiny, finger-shaped tissues (villi). These raised tissues greatly increase the surface area of the intestine, which absorbs calories and nutrients from food. The small intestine consists of three parts. The first part, called the duodenum, connects to the stomach. The middle part is the jejunum. The third part, called the ileum, attaches to the colon.
The large intestine is the second section of the alimentary canal. The large intestines start in the pelvis at the right iliac region located immediately under the waist on the right-hand side. From here, the colon travels up the abdomen, then crosses horizontally at the top of the abdominal cavity, and finally turns downwards, to finish at the anus.
