Consequently, hospitals may be utilizing observation status more frequently in response to audits and fear of a lengthy and costly appeals process that may result in loss of the ability to rebill an inpatient claim as observation if the process extends beyond 12 months after patient discharge.

Modal (textile) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Modal is a bio-based fiber made by spinning reconstituted cellulose from beech trees. It is about 50% more hygroscopic, or water-absorbent, per unit volume than cotton is. It is designed to dye just like cotton, and is color-fast when washed in warm water. Modal is essentially a variety of rayon. Textiles made from Modal do not fibrillate, or pill, like cotton does, and are resistant to shrinkage and fading. They are smooth and soft, more so than even mercerized cotton, to the point where mineral deposits from hard water, such as lime, do not stick to the fabric surface.
