Code Geass: Paladins of Voltron Chapter 18: Collection and Extraction

Rai's fingers flew across the keyboard in a blur. His eyes were focused solely on the computer's screen. He barely even noticed that everyone else had crowded behind him to look as well. It had been three days (quintants according to the Alteans) since the massive fiasco with King Alfor's A.I. and Princess Allura had finally recovered from the Rejuvenation Ceremony on the Balmera. Now Rai was tapping into the memory data that they had managed to extract from Sendak before Lelouch had sent him off into space.

"Somewhere inside Sendak's memories, we should be able to find the inside information that gives us the key to take down Zarkon," Allura said confidently.

"I don't think your father would approve of searching through an enemy's memories," Coran said with a slight frown.

"Yeah, I hate to admit it," Suzaku added, "but I'm not super comfortable with this either."

"I understand," Allura said before standing up straighter, "but we have to do everything we can to defeat Zarkon."

"Once we learn all his weaknesses, we can drive up to his front door and challenge him to a fight. Winner gets the universe," Rivalz grinned, already daydreaming of the battle to come.

"Anything good yet, Rai?" Lelouch asked.

Rai only sighed in frustration, "We were only able to salvage bits and pieces."

"Okay, but we need something to work with," Shirley said, sharing similar feelings of frustration, "right now, we don't even have a decent map of the Empire."

"Do we even need a map?" Kallen asked with a frown, "After ten thousand years of conquering, I could probably fire Aka's laser at like any random point in space and hit a Galra ship somewhere."

"Well, if we could just find troop locations or supply routes, small targets we could hit-and-run, then we could start to free planets one by one," Milly suggested.

"Hey Lelouch," Rivalz said, looking at the Black Paladin, "you have experience kicking Britannia's butt as Zero. Why can't you just do the exact same thing here? Just 'Zero up' and challenge Zarkon to a fight."

"It's not that simple, Rivalz," Lelouch said with a frown, folding his arms. "The only reason I've had so much success on Earth is because I already know the enemy so well. Most of my opponents are my own half-siblings, people I've grown up with and know on a personal level. Because of that, it's much easier to predict their movements and actions. On the other hand, we, including me, know little to nothing about Zarkon. He's been building this universal-sized empire for ten thousand years. That's longer than humanity has even been alive. We're not going to tear it down overnight with seven inexperienced-" Kallen cleared her throat loudly, and Suzaku crossed his arms with a slight frown as well, "-mostly inexperienced pilots and one support ship. The last thing we want to do right now is hit him where he lives, it'd be a huge mistake."

"Why not use your Geass on him and force him to stop?" Shirley suggested.

"I could try that," Lelouch agreed, "but there are some problems there too. I need to make direct eye-contact for Geass to have any effect, so doing that alone will be difficult enough. Also, there are too many unknowns about this situation. When I tried to use it on Sendak, he was able to counter it. Not to mention that something he said worries me."

"And that would be…?" Suzaku asked.

"When Kallen and I confronted Sendak, and I attempted Geass on him. After he countered it, he mentioned people called the Druids, saying I 'paid a visit' to them."

"Hey, now that I think about it," Rai said, turning his head back to them, "he said the same thing to me when I fought him."

"Do you know anything about this, C.C.?" Lelouch looked up at the green-haired woman.

Surprisingly, she shook her head, "This is the first time I've heard of them as well."

"So instead of getting answers, all we have are more questions," Rivalz sighed. This was starting to get frustrating for all of them.

"Okay, anyway, I've cross-referenced Sendak's memories with the info I got from the downed ship back on Arus," Rai announced, turning back to the screen, Altean and Galran symbols started to appear in front of him, "Most of it was a garbled mess, but one thing kept repeating, something called a 'Universal Station.'"

"Universal Station? Like, the kind of station that controls the entire universe?" Shirley asked, leaning over.

"Well, we are translating it from Galra, so it could also be 'Galactic Hub,'" Rai countered.

"Or 'Space Base,'" Suzaku suggested. Everyone turned to look at him questioningly, "What?" he asked, looking confused.

"I'm pulling up the location of your Universal Hub Station Base on our screens now," Coran said as he walked over towards the primary monitor. As he pulled up the coordinates, two giant planets and a small moon appeared on the screen, but as far as they could tell, there was no sign of a Galra base anywhere.

"So... where is it?" Rivalz asked, looking confused.

"I don't know," Coran said, looking bemused. He rechecked the screens in case he put the wrong coordinates. They were correct, though. "Our long-range sensors are unable to find anything at those coordinates."

"Maybe he remembered it wrong?" Kallen suggested.

"Or maybe we just stumbled across a top-secret base in Sendak's memories," Rai said as he clasped his hands together seriously.

"Well, there's only one way to find out," C.C. said.

"I agree, let's go take a look," Allura said with a determined frown.

o~o

They decided not to wormhole to the coordinates as the team had no real idea of what would be waiting for them on the other side. If they were lucky, there would be no enemy ships ready to shoot them down upon exiting a wormhole. But, they learned early on that the team was rarely that lucky, so they choose to manually fly there instead. It took several hours for the Castle to finally get within range of the coordinates that they picked up from Sendak's memories. Rivalz, Milly, and Shirley had ended up falling asleep halfway through.

"We should be close enough to get a good scan," Allura announced, shaking the trio from their slumber, "but far enough away to avoid being noticed."

The Castleship slowly crept around the first planet that oddly looked like a smaller version of their Solar System's Jupiter. As they did so, their target slowly came into focus. Located in the middle of the two planets and the moon, was a small base that seemed to be carved out of a meteorite. A couple of Galra cruisers were already lodging there, and another was slowly coming into port.

"There it is," Rai said gravely. It was a lot smaller than they thought it would be. However, considering how hard it was to locate, they couldn't dismiss the station due to size alone. There had to be something the Galra wanted to hide to have so much security around it.

"It appears the gravitation between the two planets warps the electron emission spectrum enough to keep the planet off the deep space scanners," Coran explained as wave patterns and other information appeared on the screen before them.

"So you can only see it if you really know where to look," C.C. observed. She chuckled slightly, "Clever."

"Huh, it's almost like a space version of the Bermuda Triangle," Kallen compared.

"From the looks of it, this place must handle shipments from all over the Galra Empire," Suzaku added.

"Wait, I'm confused," Shirley said, "if this place is basically just a glorified airport, why did they need to hide it?"

"There's probably more to this than what we're seeing," Milly offered.

"I agree," Lelouch nodded, "there's no reason that the Galra would go through all the trouble to hide this place if it was simply another outpost or port. Something else is happening here."

"Then, we'd better go down to take a look," Allura said as she tapped on the hologram screen. She pulled up the base closer to her. A small area around the middle of the base lit up and expanded, "We'll need to enter here: the central control building."

Suzaku blinked, before looking at Allura incredulously, "I'm sorry, Princess, did you say 'we'?"

"I'm going with you," Allura said with a determined frown, "I've traveled through the Galra transportation hubs many times with my father before the war began. I know more about them than any of you."

"Are you sure that's a good idea?" Suzaku asked nervously.

"I agree with Number Two, Princess, I'd rather you stay here," Coran said.

"I'm a part of this fight against Zarkon as much as anyone. I'm going. Does anyone have a problem with that?" Allura glanced around as if daring one of them to protest. Most of the Paladins looked away, not wanting to catch Allura's eye.

"I'm going as well," C.C. said, "both Lelouch and Shirley are contracted with me, and I'd rather be there to make sure they survive than watch them die."

Shirley turned a small tinge of green. Despite it being quite generous of C.C. to accompany them, she still wasn't used to some of her antics, most of which were quite morbid.

"...Fine. Suit Up," Lelouch relented with a sigh.

"What?! Lelouch, you can't be serious!" Suzaku exclaimed as everyone else in the looked up at the Black Paladin in shock.

"I understand the concern Suzaku," Lelouch said calmly, "but the Princess brings up a good point. With her experience at these ports, we can find what we're looking for faster. Besides, she's not going to be alone, we'll all be there as well."

Suzaku still looked uncomfortable, and Coran looked downright horrified, but the plan was in place. And now it was time to implement it.

o~o

"We'll go in low, fast, and hopefully undetected. Coming around the dark side of the nearest planet should keep them from getting a visual on us. Thanks to Rai's modifications to Zerith, we'll have thirty seconds of cloaking," Lelouch had explained before they departed.

Zerith zoomed around the side of the planet, cloaking activating like a blanket being thrown over her. In a wide arc, she carefully landed near the rocky top of the base.

"I can flood their short-range sensors with a radiation burst," Coran offered. "That should buy you a minute or so, while they assume it's cosmic interference. But, after that, it's up to you to be out of sight."

Looking down from the rocky outcropping, the base looked much bigger up close. Their destination, the central control building, as Allura called it, was right in the middle of it.

o~o

"Interference clear in three, two, one," an automated male voice ran through the control center. A single Galra soldier stood guard on top of the central platform, and down below were two sentries handling the other controls.

The Galra was bored. Nothing exciting ever happened at this base. Why was he the one stuck here handling cargo deliveries? He yawned as if to prove his point.

He then heard the entrance behind him open. He blinked and looked back, only to find that there was no one there.

"Huh?" was the only thing that came out of his mouth before something suddenly hit him in an uppercut. He went flying backward over the railing and landed unconscious down below. The two sentries immediately raised their guns, only to look around in confusion to find no assailants. They never got the chance to sound the alarm either as two blaster flashes later, they were lying crumpled on the floor as well.

Shirley sighed in slight exhaustion as her Geass turned off. Before the group had entered the control station, Shirley had used her Geass to make them all invisible, at least to the enemy's eyes. It was the most amount of people she'd had to use it on so far, and she didn't expect it to be so draining.

"Great job, Shirley!" Rai praised with a smile, "Just sit and rest for now, okay?"

Shirley smiled gratefully at the Green Paladin before doing just that, practically falling on the bottom step of the stairs and leaned against the wall.

"It seems your limit of how many you can turn invisible is higher than nine so far," C.C. observed, as that was the number of people there, including Shirley herself. "You could easily smuggle an entire strike team into any situation without detection."

"And it's a skill we will likely be using in the future," Lelouch finished, giving Shirley a nod and a smile. The Orange Paladin blushed at Lelouch's praise. It felt good to be noticed by her crush.

The group wasted no time tying the Galran up and hiding him in the upper corner, as well as move the two sentries out of the way. Rai was in the process of connecting his laptop to Rover, who was in the process of scanning the Galran station's network. Kallen and Suzaku glanced out the large windows to the center to make sure that no one spotted or noticed the assault.

"How's it look out there?" Lelouch asked.

"All clear. For now anyway," Suzaku confirmed as Kallen nodded.

"This shouldn't take too long," Rivalz said, as he helped connect the last wire to the little drone.

Rai's computer blinked to life as he started to type furiously on it, "We'll have all the information we need in a few minutes." In front of him, the screen beeped as numerous algorithms and data began swarming onto the screen. Despite the chaos, though, Rai's face didn't change. He seemed to know what he was looking for as a pixelated face of himself appeared on the screen and seemed to start laughing as data was transferred. "I made some improvements since the last time I tried to download Galra info. We should get a nice, clean translation immediately. Milly actually gave me the idea on how to do it."

"Well actually, it was more or less Nina's idea," the Yellow Paladin confessed, "but do you guys remember when we studied algorithms back at Ashford? And then Nina told us that joke about the ghost learning symbolic logic and innumerably infinite sets or something like that?"

"Your point?" Kallen asked before Milly could get too carried away.

"Yeah, right, anyway, she said-"

"Hey, guys, sorry to interrupt," Suzaku said before Milly could finish, "but I think we got company." A giant shadow of another Galra ship passed overhead, likely here for a delivery or pickup. It slowly lowered itself until it landed in the middle of the port.

"We should get out of here!" Kallen exclaimed as she and the other Paladins, plus Allura, Rover, and C.C. crowded around Rai and his laptop.

"Just need a few more seconds," Rai said, his typing seeming to speed up.

"Stay low. We need this intel," Lelouch ordered quietly.

The control board in front of them suddenly blinked to life as the group gasped.

"Get down!" Suzaku hissed as everyone scrambled out of the way as a screen appeared before them. Another Galra, likely the commander of that ship, was staring back through the screen. He grunted in surprise and confusion when no sentries or fellow Galra greeted him.

"What do we do?" Shirley whispered urgently. The Galra hadn't turned the transmission off. If he got too suspicious that something had happened, he could sound an alarm, and that was the last thing they needed right now.

"I think he's waiting for a signal or something," Rivalz guessed.

"Leave it to me," C.C. hissed as she stealthy dragged herself and one of the downed sentries towards the control panel. With barely a grunt, she hefted the robot to its feet and moved its elbow around as if it were pressing buttons. Due to how close the sentry was to the screen, the commander didn't see C.C.'s hand controlling it. She then somehow got to not only wave at the Galra, but also give a thumbs up. How she did that they had no idea. The Galra on the other end still looked a little confused but waved back slightly in acknowledgment before closing the transmission. The immortal sighed in relief that that had worked. She'd had to do a lot of unorthodox things on this adventure so far. Well, unorthodox, even for her anyway.

"Thanks, C.C.," Lelouch said graciously.

"Don't mention it," she shrugged. So long as everyone was still alive, she didn't really care what happened. Though, not getting captured would be a bonus as well.

"Okay, download complete," Rai announced as Rover disconnected from the control board, having gotten what they needed.

"Okay, what's it say?" Kallen asked a little impatiently.

"Nothing!" Rai exclaimed in frustration and continued to type. "This place doesn't have any useful information. Just a schedule of the ships coming in and out."

"So we basically just wasted our time," Kallen deduced with a scowl, voicing everyone's current thoughts.

"Welp, can't win them all," Milly said, "a few busts were bound to happen."

"Let's return to the Castle before we're spotted," Lelouch decided as they all got up to leave. Rivalz helped Shirley to her feet as she still was recovering from her Geass usage.

To their surprise, though, Allura spoke up, saying something for the first time since they had gotten in, "Hold on. Rai, do you know where that ship is headed?" the Princess gestured the one that literally just docked.

Though confused by the sudden request, the Green Paladin answered, "Um, it's scheduled to be here for about a half an hour, then head off to Central Command."

Allura stood up straight, "That's where they have the information we need, and I'm going to sneak aboard that ship and get it for us."

"What?!" Suzaku gasped as he and the others stood up, "No, absolutely not!"

"How are you even going to get in?" Shirley asked curiously.

"I'm going to walk right through the front," Allura smiled confidently as she takes off her helmet.

Then right before their eyes, the Princess started to change. Her dark skin became a purple color, and she grew in height by about another foot or so. Everyone stared, mouths open at what just happened.

"H-how did you do that?!" Shirley gasped, voicing everyone's question.

"The Alteans are a chameleon-like people who can blend in with the local populations," Allura explained with a proud smile. "It's the ability that's made us great explorers and diplomats throughout our history."

"So, can you turn into, like, a balloon?" Milly asked, leaning in closer.

"How many different colors can you be at once?" Rai asked next, turning his attention away from his laptop for a moment.

"Aren't you afraid you'll rip your pants?" Rivalz asked, all three leaning in, waiting for their answers.

Allura blinked a couple of times, not expecting such questions, but fortunately had answers for all of them, addressing one by one. "No, just one at a time, and I will need a change of costume. I can use his uniform as a disguise." Allura said, turning to the still unconscious Galra officer.

"You're not going in there alone," Lelouch said authoritatively.

"Excuse me? I do not need your permission," Allura fired back.

"It's too dangerous. I'm going in with you," the Black Paladin decided.

"You will stick out like a Choferiak's nose," Allura countered.

"You're going to need that nose, Princess," Rai interrupted before they could argue further. "We're still not sure how, but somehow Lelouch's Geass can interact with Galra tech," Rai then reached into his pocket and pulled out what looked like a flash drive. "He can interface with their systems and use this drive to gather intel. I can monitor the download remotely from here."

"If Lelouch is going, then so am I," C.C. said and continued before Allura could protest. "Lelouch is one of my contractors and will be in a dangerous situation. At least Shirley will be safe here with the others."

"...Fine, you can come," Allura finally relented.

"Uh, you guys better hurry up if you want to get on and off before the ship leaves for Zarkon central," Shirley said, looking out the command center's window.

"Hold on!" Suzaku exclaimed, "How exactly are you going to get Lelouch and C.C. aboard?"

Allura, C.C., and Lelouch looked at each. That may be a problem. They needed to come up with something fast.

o~o

Lelouch honestly felt somewhat ridiculous and also embarrassed. Mainly because of how close C.C.'s… assets were to his face. A little too close for comfort. He had a feeling C.C. wasn't too happy about this arrangement either, but this was the most comfortable way that they could fit into the small cart that Allura, now disguised in the Galra's uniform, was currently carting towards the ship. Despite this, though, it seemed this plan was working as the only stop they made was, Lelouch assumed as he couldn't look up, in front of the ship.

"Move along," the muffled voice of a sentry gave before they started moving again.

Allura blew out a breath of relief as she and her cargo walked right past the guards and into the ship. The hard part (they hoped) was done.

o~o

"They're in," Suzaku announced, breathing out in relief himself as he Kallen, Milly, Rivalz, and Shirley watched the disguised trio enter. Despite that success, though, Suzaku couldn't let go of the tingling feeling on the back of his neck that this was still going to go horribly wrong.

"Hey," Kallen said, catching everyone's attention, "what do you think is in those giant containers?"

Before Allura was allowed to enter the ship, two sentries came marching down the ramp, carrying two large capsules. They couldn't tell what they were from their position, but they looked yellow and were glowing.

"Maybe… Fuel?" Shirley guessed. It seemed like the most logical answer.

"Makes sense," Milly agreed, "A base like this likely has tons of spare fuel and supplies when ships need to make an emergency landing of some sort."

"Maybe this guy will tell us," Rai said as he and Rover sat, or hovered in front of one of the sentries they disarmed and knocked out earlier, "What is coming in and out of this station?"

The sentry's front light suddenly started flashing yellow, like a warning light. "Interrogation detected. Initiating lockdown," the automated voice announced as the robot then slumped forward.

Rover bleeped, sounding like he was both frustrated but also slightly mocking his fellow robot.

"I couldn't agree more Rover," Rai smirked before turning his attention back to the sentry, and typing on his computer again. "So you're not talking, huh? We'll see about that."

"Whoa, check out that guy!" Kallen suddenly said as the others, except Rai, looked back out the window. In front of both of the canisters now was a creepy-looking robed figure.

Rivalz blinked before a thoughtful frown crossed his face, "Hey, uh, this is going to sound pretty random, but… what exactly is a druid?"

"Well, if you're looking for the Earth definition, they're supposed to be priests, magicians, or even soothsayers in some ancient religions. I don't think we really use that term on Earth anymore, though," Suzaku said.

"Wait… so the Galra have a religion?" Rivalz asked, quirking an eyebrow.

"Technically, any cultural way of thinking could be considered part of a religion," Milly pointed out.

"Does conquering the entire universe count?" Kallen asked sarcastically. That quickly shut that conversation right up.

Curious about the person they were making a fuss over, Rai briefly glanced out the window. When he saw the figure, he gasped. Soft yet malicious laughter rang in his ears, and several figures, all with white bird-like masks, were leaning over him. He was strapped to a table and couldn't move-

"Rai! Rai, snap out of it!" a voice brought him back to reality. He blinked as Milly's concerned blue eyes swirled into view.

"Are you okay, dude?" Rivalz asked, hovering behind the class president.

"Yeah… that guy down there, he's definitely familiar," Rai confirmed shakily.

"So… this guy is a druid then?" Shirley asked, looking out the window again.

"I don't know, but whatever's happening here that requires the base to be kept a secret must have something to do with him," Kallen said, "I'm going to go check it out."

"I'm coming with you," Suzaku said, walking up behind her as she turned to leave.

The Red Paladin looked back with a scowl, "Suzaku, I'm not the sickly, frail girl you know from school. I can handle myself."

"I don't doubt that," Suzaku said, but continued on, "but if this is one of those druid people, we don't know what he's capable of. It's best to have a back-up just in case."

Kallen continued to scowl before finally letting out a forceful sigh, "Fine. Just don't get in my way."

As the two walked out of the door, Shirley looked nervously at the remaining Paladins, "They can handle themselves, right?"

"They'll be fine, don't worry," Milly said with a reassuring grin.

o~o

Meanwhile, onboard the Galra cruiser, Lelouch, C.C., and Allura glanced out from one of the hallways just as a pair of sentries walked past. From where they were, they could see the corridors crawling with robots. It was going to be challenging to get past them all.

As another sentry walked past, Allura then heard a tapping sound. Looking to the source, she saw that Lelouch's hand was pressed up against one of the walls, and his finger was tapping in a slow rhythm.

"What are you doing, Lelouch?" Allura whispered.

"I'm timing the sentries," Lelouch answered back in a low voice.

"So, you noticed as well?" C.C. asked with a small grin.

"Noticed what?" Allura asked, not quite following.

"The way the sentries walk," Lelouch explained. "Every time we've been on a Galra ship or base, I noticed that the sentries walk in a distinct pattern. Since then, I've been timing them. We should be able to sneak past them easily if it works."

"Will it?" Allura asked.

"Well, one way to find out," C.C. said as the trio turned around and scrambled down the hall just as another patrol came around the corner. They hid behind one of the outcroppings until they passed. Lelouch then led them around another corner, right before another patrol from the other side came up. The plan seemed to work as each time they heard a sentry patrol, Lelouch tapped the rhythm of their walk. Once they were gone, they would dash around another corner. No one, Galra or sentry, saw them.

o~o

Kallen's eyes narrowed as she watched the druid person lead the two sentries with the capsules down a small metal chasm. It looked like they were heading deeper inside the base. Now that Kallen got a better look at it from her and Suzaku's perch, it looked similar to a warehouse.

It didn't take long for the warehouse doors to open, and the Druid lead the sentries inside with their cargo.

As Kallen and Suzaku sprinted to keep up with them, the Purple Paladin was still shocked at how well Kallen matched his speed.

As the doors began to close, the duo leaped down after them with their jetpacks, making it in just as the doors closed behind them.

o~o

Rivalz had taken two of the wires that Rai had attached to the sentry's head and began pushing the two open ends together. This resulted in the sentry's arm wobbly being raised up and landing clumsily on its head.

He laughed as he continued to press the wires together, "Why are you hitting yourself? Stop hitting yourself! Quit hitting yourself!"

"Stop torturing it, Rivalz," Rai scolded, but he couldn't help but chuckle along with Shirley.

"I'm sorry. I just…" Rivalz said before putting the wires down, "I've had a lot on my mind lately. Like, I guess I still haven't gotten over the fact that not only is Lelouch a member of the Royal Family, but he's Zero too? I mean, who would've guessed that, right?"

"He's a valiant superhero sporting, not one, but two secret identities!" Milly dramatically proclaimed. This caused everyone to laugh again.

"Okay, I think I can teach this hunk of junk to help us," Rai said as he looked up at the robot, "Would you like to help us, Mr. Robot?"

The sentry's head mechanically swiveled in Rai's direction before it started rapidly shaking its head, making a rattling sound.

"Whoops…" he muttered, turning back to the laptop. Rover let out a few beeps, sounding like laughter.

Despite the silliness happening around her, Shirley suddenly frowned sadly.

"You okay, Shirley?" Milly asked.

"Yeah, I just… I keep thinking about what Lelouch told us. About what happened to his mom and Nunnally. And their dad just threw them away like they were trash! What kind of a father does that to his own kids, Emperor or not?!"

"Yeah. I regret to admit this, but up until Lelouch told us about what he's really like, I actually kind of admired the Emperor," Rivalz admitted with a disgusted frown.

"If I ever see that son-of-a-bitch face to face, the first thing he'll get from me is a slice to the neck," Rai growled.

No one protested the action, all of them thinking about similar things. To believe that the most powerful man in their nation was capable of such cruelty towards his own family!

Speaking of family... "...You know, we've been away from Earth for a while now," Milly said. "Has anyone been keeping track of how long we've been gone?" Everyone shook their heads, they hadn't. Milly sighed, "Fair enough. I'm guessing it's at least been long enough for people to notice that we're missing. I wouldn't be surprised if our school pictures are all over the news."

"Wait, if that happens-" Rivalz started before Milly interrupted.

"Yeah, even with the little my grandpa can do to stop it, Lelouch and Nunnally's cover has probably been blown sky-high by now," Milly admitted. "Once someone from the Royal Family sees Lelouch's photo, I doubt it'll take long for them to connect the dots. Both Britannians and Japanese."

"Would the Japanese recognize Lelouch and Nunna?" Shirley asked.

"I'd be surprised if they didn't," Milly continued. "Their 'deaths' are the whole reason that Britannia suppresses Japan so severely, they think the people there killed two members of the Royal Family. If a Japanese faction got a hold of Nunnally, I wouldn't be surprised if they try to use her as a bargaining chip. Heck, Britannia itself could do it too, just like they did the first time."

There was a heavy silence for about five seconds as they all absorbed this information. Shirley, with clenched fists and a determined look on her face, then stood up. "Well then, once we're done here, I say the first thing we do is swing back to Earth and get Nunnally ourselves, quiznack to the Galra tracking us! She doesn't deserve to live a life like that! She deserves to be with Lelouch, and no one else!"

A chorus of agreement echoed Shirley's statement. Rai then thought of something else, "Hey, speaking of deserves better, we may be able to do more than just reunite them! The cryo-pods! Maybe they can heal her blindness and legs! Lelouch said her blindness was from trauma, so that means her vision should still be fixable since there's no physical damage. And if those don't work, I'm sure there's some alien species out there that have the ability or technology to help!"

"It would be wonderful for Nunnally to walk again. For her to have a normal life! Then Lelouch won't have to worry about her twenty-four-seven!" Shirley nodded immediately after.

"Haha! I'm sure he'd worry about her regardless. Still, either way, I'm sticking by Lelouch," Rivalz declared, "even if it means standing against Britannia."

Milly then pulled out her Bayard, it flashing into its kusarigama form, "For Lelouch and Nunnally!" she exclaimed, holding her weapon in front of her.

The other three quickly caught on to what she was doing and stood up with their own Bayards activated. The weapons joined Milly's as the wielder's held them up in the center of their circle.

"For Lelouch and Nunnally!"

o~o

The remains of sentries filled the hallway as the two Paladins stalked cautiously into this next room. They crouched down low to prevent the druid person from noticing them. In the room up ahead, the walls were stacked with layers of more canisters, all filled with the same liquid, yellow substance.

"What the heck?" Kallen whispered, "How many of these things do they need?"

Suzaku frowned. Something about this room sent shivers down his spine. He couldn't tell what was going on, but whatever it was, it couldn't be good.

Then one of the capsules was brought towards the center of the room, where several outcroppings met in the middle. At the center was a giant ball of energy, trapped within a glass ball. The capsule slid into place over the top of the ball, and the yellow substance slowly started leaking out the bottom and hitting the ball. But unlike spreading out like water normally would do, it was more like one of those penny donation boxes, as the substance started swirling around and around inside of the glass. Once it hit the bottom of the orb, it began to build up, slowly filling it.

Then the Druid, standing on one of the platforms, started to move. He lifted his dark grey hands up in front of him, and then in the blink of an eye, volts of violet energy shot out from his palms and hit the orb, causing the liquid inside to turn a bright purple. The pair watched it get absorbed into the energy ball in the center of the glass as the lightning ringed about it. Finally, slowly from the bottom of the orb, heavy-looking purple liquid dripped from what almost looked like a claw. It emptied into a much smaller container waiting at the bottom and started filling up slowly.

Both Suzaku and Kallen could only watch wide-eyed at what they just witnessed.

o~o

Allura, C.C., and Lelouch finally managed to evade the sentries long enough to find what they believed to be a control panel. The only person there was a single flesh and blood Galra. And he wasn't wearing a helmet either, as it was placed to the side of him.

Lelouch smirked and just walked right in, removing his own helmet. This was too perfect! When he was right behind the Galra, he cleared his throat.

The Galra promptly turned around to see Lelouch. Before he could shout for help though, Lelouch's Geass flared to life.

"Stand guard outside this room and don't let anyone in until we're finished here," he ordered as the Geass flew into the Galra's eyes.

As the telltale red ring encircled them, the Galra relaxed and saluted to Lelouch. "Vrepit sa, sir," he replied before replacing his helmet, picking up his gun, and moving to the room entrance to stand guard, just as Lelouch ordered.

Allura watched slightly uncomfortable as the Galra seemed to mindlessly do as Lelouch commanded. She understood that was how Lelouch's power worked, but to see it in action was still unsettling.

"That should delay any more patrols that come by," C.C. said, "but we should still hurry."

"Right," Lelouch nodded as he approached the main control panel. He quickly inserted the flash drive the Rai had given him into the board, then he activated his Geass once more, but this time for a different purpose. The familiar flicker of electricity traveled down the Black Paladin's hand and into his fingers as the control panel flashed to life.

"Rai, I'm in," he said through his helmet, "start the download."

"Generating access code," Rai confirmed from back at the central command deck. His familiar pixelated face appeared on the scene in blue, and soon, several bars appeared before Lelouch. "We're in."

Before Rai could get too far into the download, though, a Galra insignia appeared on the scene and started buzzing.

"Rai, there's a problem!" Lelouch warned, a small bead of sweat trickling down his face.

o~o

"Sit tight. I'm trying to work around this," the Green Paladin reassured as he typed madly on his computer, Galra text spiraling through it.

"Rai!" Lelouch urged impatiently.

"I'm on it! I'm on it!" he replied back desperately, biting his lip in the process.

o~o

"What's going on here?" another Galra asked, walking up to the Geassed Galra. He tried to step inside, but the guard blocked him.

"No one is to enter this room until the business inside is resolved," he said monotonously.

"What? What's going on in there?" the soldier asked.

"I'm under orders not to let anyone in until the business inside is done," he repeated in the same tone. He then pointed his gun at the Galra. "If you continue to persist, I will be forced to take extreme action."

The Galra backed off, looking somewhat alarmed before he finally relented, "Fine!" he then stalked off.

Allura out a breath of relief when the soldier left. She was worried that she may have had to step in for a moment. However, it seemed Lelouch's plan was working, for now.

"Rai, hurry up," Lelouch hissed, "we nearly had our cover blown!"

"Almost done," Rai answered through gritted teeth.

o~o

Kallen's visor morphed into a built-in video camera as she began to look around the room, or facility would be a better term for it.

"Coran, you need to see this."

o~o

Kallen's video feed connected to the main bridge of the Castle. Coran gasped.

"I've never seen anything like it," he breathed.

o~o

"What is that?" Milly asked as the video was also shown to the other four Paladins still in the command center.

Suddenly, from behind the quartet, the Galra sentry finally blinked to life and answered them.

"The material is quintessence, the substance with the highest known energy per unit volume in the universe."

"Hey, what do you know, he does work for us," Rivalz grinned at Rai. Though the Green Paladin wasn't listening to his comrade. Quintessence? Why did that sound familiar?

"What?" Coran asked from the Castle, "Impossible!"

"Raw quintessence material is transported here from throughout the galaxy and refined into standardized Galra fuel requirements." the sentry continued.

o~o

"Hey, did you all catch that?" Shirley asked through the commlink.

"I can't believe it! They've found a new way to acquire quintessence!" Coran exclaimed.

o~o

"Okay, guys, we're going to steal some of this quint-whatever," Kallen said.

"What? We are?" Suzaku asked, looking at Kallen like she was nuts.

"We need to know more about this stuff," Kallen replied back with a hiss, "and what better way than to get it right from the source?"

Suzaku looked like he wanted to protest. This was way too risky, they could get caught! But, seeing that Kallen also did have a point, he relented.

o~o

"Hey, look," the same Galra from earlier approached the Geassed Galra again, "I really need to get in there. Can you just step aside?"

"I'm under orders not to-"

"I get that you have orders, this will only take a tick!"

Before the Galra could shove through, the Geassed one, pointed his gun at the officer and fired.

The Galra froze in shock before his hand instinctively reached for his belt, his finger pressing down on the button just as before he collapsed.

Alarms started blaring from all over the ship. The button the Galran had pressed had set them all off!

"Security alert! Security alert!" an automated female voice rang through the halls.

Lelouch ripped his hand away from the control panel and tore the flash drive from the port. He turned, and with a small pistol, he had brought with him, shot the Geassed Galra in the skull. He collapsed to the ground in a heap by his comrade. Allura ran up and pressed the door lock as they heard multiple footsteps heading their way.

"I think we're in trouble," C.C. said surprisingly calmly.

"You think?!" Allura demanded as the door started to develop dents from the multiple assailants on the other side.

Another Galra officer that heard the gunshots was attempting to break in. Before he could fire his gun again, Allura burst through the door, slamming the officer against the other wall. She then swiped the Galra's weapon away from him, arming herself with it.

Lelouch and even C.C. froze in the doorway for a moment, looking at Allura in shock. They had no idea she was really that strong!

"What?" Allura asked, confused by their faces.

They didn't have time to ask more questions, though, as a horde of sentries started shooting at them from the other end of the hall.

"This way!" C.C. shouted, dragging the Princess and Paladin down the hall.

o~o

The quintessence had just finished filling into the small container. The platform it was on slowly started moving in Kallen and Suzaku's direction. It was the perfect opportunity to take it.

Kallen leaped from her side of the wall and snatched the container off the rack, barely making a sound. Suzaku caught her before he body could slam against the wall.

"Okay, we got it, let's get out of here," he muttered.

Kallen nodded in agreement, though she did take a moment to examine the canister more closely. She had a suspicion that this stuff wasn't just used for fuel. Why else would it have to be so well hidden? There had to be another purpose behind this stuff.

"Come on-" Suzaku halted his words when he looked back into the room. The druid was gone, "Uh oh!"

"What?" Kallen asked. She got her answer as the druid appeared right behind the pair and zapped them straight across the room, Kallen lost her grip on the canister in the process. The druid promptly transported over to it and picked up the quintessence carefully as if it were a precious artifact.

"Okay! Plan B!" she exclaimed, pulling out her cestus and charging at the druid. Suzaku wasn't too far behind her with his katana at the ready.

The druid calmly set the quintessence down on another platform before vanishing into the air again when Kallen swiped at him, only to appear a couple feet away. This time Suzaku attempted to strike at it, katana swiping the air as the druid vanished again, this time behind Kallen, who tried to swipe at him back, only for him to disappear. Again.

"Quick running and fight, you coward!" She screamed as she looked around.

"Kallen, above you!" Suzaku shouted as he spotted the druid on the platform again.

The Red Paladin just barely managed to spot the druid before has was forced to dodge out of the way as a purple bolt of lightning hit where she had been just a moment ago.

Suzaku's brain momentarily screeched to a halt when he saw that. "That's just like… Lelouch!" he whispered before he was forced to dodge the lightning attack as well. Other than the coloring, the attack seemed almost identical to the attacks that Lelouch used thanks to his Geass.

The two Paladins dodged around the lightning before the two bolts collided, causing an explosion. As the smoke cleared, the Druid paused, wondering if he had disposed of them.

He got his answer as Suzaku suddenly leaped up in his jet pack from behind and attempted to kick the druid as he spun rapidly. The druid once again vanished to another platform, but Kallen had been waiting for him. With a battle cry, she swung her Bayard on what she thought was the druid's arm, only for him to block it with a flash of purple energy that seemed to grind against Kallen's weapon.

The Red Paladin gasped as the energy became too strong, and she was shot backward with a scream, agony racing up her right arm. She hit a canister of yellow quintessence hard when she landed.

"Kallen!" Suzaku shouted in alarm as Kallen curled in around her injury. She looked down at her hand, blistering and charred from the attack. A trip to the cryopod was definitely in store for her after this.

Suzaku leaped backward himself as the druid tried to fire at him again. Fresh adrenaline running through his veins as his jetpack activated and propelled him to Kallen's location.

"Rai! We need an extraction now! Hurry!" he shouted into the comm as he landed on the shelf close to Kallen.

o~o

"Rai, fire up, Zerith! We're coming in hot!" Lelouch ordered as he, Allura, and C.C. continued to run down the hall. Lelouch was quite shocked that he was keeping up with the two women, but assumed his fight-or-flight instincts had kicked in and were helping him out with that, so he didn't question it too much.

The group then screeched to a halt as two more sentries appeared in front of them, guns raised.

Allura, the only one suitably armed, lifted the gun to try and fire… only for the shot to blast in the entirely opposite direction. The blast hit one of the sentries that were pursuing them from behind.

"Wha-" Allura asked as they turned to look. Lelouch growled and turned his Geass on once more, having tossed C.C. his pistol, and zapped one of the sentries while C.C. shot the other one. After they collapsed, Allura took the fallen sentry by C.C. and flung it at the incoming robots. It collided with them, causing them to fall, but that wouldn't stop them forever.

"I thought you said you'd traveled around the galaxy. I mean, you fly a spaceship. How could you possibly not know how to hold this correctly?" Lelouch demanded as he swiped the rifle from Allura's hands and turned it around and handed it back to the Princess.

Hearing more steps behind, Allura yanked the two of them down the hall, holding the rifle right this time.

"I'm tense. This is a tense situation!" Allura explained, but before Allura could say anything else, the intercom came to life once again.

"Secure hatches. All personnel take positions for departure."

"Not good," C.C. said as they picked up the pace further.

o~o

From inside the command deck, Rai promptly unplugged the wires. He scooped up his laptop, leading the other four Paladins back towards Zerith.

o~o

Kallen and Suzaku were jumping and leaping from wall to platform as they barely dodged attack after attack from the Druid behind them. Strangely, the druid didn't seem too concerned with the fact that while he was trying to shoot the Paladins, he was partially destroying some of the quintessence that was being stored on the base also.

Suzaku, at one point, managed to leap in front of Kallen, with his shield up, to take one of the blasts. The shield absorbed the attack, but the force of it sent him flying backward and hitting Kallen. Fortunately, they managed to land on one of the shelves of quintessence. They then slid down a conveyor belt that was transporting another quintessence canister towards the center of the room.

Believing they could possibly use it as a partial shield, Suzaku stood up in front of Kallen to protect her, as he was currently the uninjured one. The druid soon appeared above them on the conveyor belt as well, hands shimmering with purple sparks of electricity.

As the canister stopped at the center of the room and the druid approached ever closer, Suzaku readied himself for what would probably be his final stand.

That turned out not to be the day he died though, as the building suddenly shook violently, causing the druid to lose balance and his attack fire just above Kallen and Suzaku's heads. It cracked open the canister instead and spilling the thick yellow quintessence all over them. However, Kallen got the brunt of it being closer to it.

From above, the ceiling exploded, forcing the druid to vanish in a retreat. Zerith's lithe form then landed right in the center of the facility, and she opened her mouth to let the two Paladins in.

"Get in!" Rai shouted from inside, "We've got to get Lelouch, C.C., and Allura!"

The two didn't hesitate as they sprinted into the mouth. As Suzaku made it in, Kallen took a moment to look back at where the druid had been standing. She growled in fury when she saw that he was gone. She finally stepped inside, and as Zerith's mouth closed, Kallen felt a tingling in her right hand, the one that had been badly burned earlier. She looked down at it, only to gasp in shock, as the yellow quintessence seemed to close in on the injury, and fresh new skin grew in its place.

"Quintessence… what the heck is this stuff?"

o~o

"This way!" C.C. shouted as they made a sharp turn down another hall dodging laser blasts from behind still.

"Formulating navigation. All crew, assume secure hyper-speed positions."

"Hurry! We can't leave once the ship goes into hyper-speed!" Allura shouted as they felt the ship vibrate as it began to lift off the ground. She had also ripped off the Galra helmet she had been wearing.

From outside, Zerith leaped onto the top of the central command tower, and the six Paladins inside watched in horror as the ship prepared to jump.

As alarms continued to blare, the trio raced into the room, C.C. slamming her hand on the door panel before sprinting to a pod. Sentries continued to fire at them as the door closed. Before they could get one of the escape pods to work, the sentries started jamming themselves into the door, trying to force their way in.

Allura rushed forward and attempted to force the doors closed, but even her strength wasn't enough for the outpouring of robots trying to bust in. C.C. and Lelouch attempted to help her as much as they could, pushing against the door with her.

Behind them though, a pod was preparing for launch, once it did, and no one was in, they'd be trapped for good and heading straight for Zarkon!

"It's taking off! Get in the pod!" Allura ordered the two humans trying to help her.

"No! We're not leaving you behind!" Lelouch shouted in protest.

The Black Paladin then yelped as he felt hands grab him by the collar of his uniform and fling him backward. He landed hard inside the pod, to see C.C. relaxing from throwing him.

"Lelouch, you can't die here!" she shouted, "Not before you prevail! Over the past and over the outcome of your own actions!"

Lelouch could only watch in horror as the pod doors closed, and the entry doors were wrenched open, and sentries swarmed to two women on the other side. Allura sighed in relief as C.C. sent Lelouch a reassuring smile before the pod took off away from the ship, its single passenger trapped inside.

Just as Lelouch's pod exited the battlecruiser, it jumped into hyperspace, taking Allura and C.C. with it.

"No… NO!" he shouted, slamming his fist against the floor of the pod as it glided smoothly towards Zerith, who floated close by, waiting to retrieve him.

After Zerith collected the pod and Lelouch exited it, he solemnly walked up to the cockpit, the other six Paladins waiting patiently for him. Upon seeing that Lelouch is the only one to enter, though, they immediately can tell something is wrong.

"Lelouch, where's Allura?" Suzaku asked, ice flowing through his veins.

"And C.C.?" Shirley added.

Lelouch had yet to raise his head as the others crowded around him in concern.

"Lelouch?" Rivalz asked anxiously. He had never seen Lelouch look so… shattered.

"They sacrificed themselves to save me," he finally whispered, barely holding back tears.

"Wait-So, they're still on that ship?!" Rai exclaimed in alarm, similar expressions on the others' faces too.

"The ship that's headed to Zarkon's Central Command?" Milly asked.

"The place you specifically said is way too dangerous for us to attack?" Suzaku asked, feeling like an ice cube had just been dropped down his back.

"It doesn't matter how dangerous it is. We can't let Zarkon get Allura," Lelouch said, a determined and angered frown on his face, "Or C.C. for that matter."

"But, Lelouch, you said going there would be a huge mistake. You said for us to attack that place head-on would be the dumbest possible thing we could ever do!" Kallen reminded him, eyes wide.

"I know what I said. But now we don't have a choice," Lelouch glared back through the window into the abyss the ship disappeared into. They were correct, this would likely be the most stupid move they could ever make. But if Zarkon got Allura and C.C., it was over.

And no matter what, that could not happen.

Patient Access to Health Records

Electronic Health and Medical Records

Electronic health/medical records are patient records that have been converted to be stored electronically rather than in a paper format. They have their advantages and drawbacks, just like any other method. When a medical facility transfers to the electronic version, the practice, hospital, long-term care facility, or nursing home goes through a significant change.

In 1991, the Institute of Medicine stated that, by the year 2,000, each doctor’s office should have computers with which to improve patient care. They provided some recommendations that allowed medical practices to reach this goal. In 1996, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPPA) was signed into law after hospitals and care providers ran into issues regarding security, privacy, and healthcare coverage. After this law came into being, care providers began to make the shift to electronic records. This was solidified by The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA), which mandated that patient records be stored electronically. This took effect in 2014.

Electronic Health Records (EHRs) originated in the mid-1960s with an early data processing system. These records were specifically maintained for clinical data management. While EHRs/EMRs have their benefits, they may also present significant drawbacks. If you watch television programming created around medical practices or hospitals, you may hear characters in these programs refer to an electronic tablet rather than a paper chart. This is an EHR in practice. While television doctors scroll through the record with no effort, real-life equivalents come with their own issues.

The Promises of Electronic Medical Records

The creators of electronic medical records (EMRs) or electronic health records (EHRs) promise to deliver conveniences for medical professionals and consumers. This technology promises to provide up-to-date, accurate, and complete information about patients, no matter where they go to receive medical care. This care is expected to be more efficient and better-coordinated. The information in each record should be secure, shared only with other clinicians as required and the patient for whom the information is pertinent. These records should also contain sufficient information to enable providers to reduce medical errors, provide accurate diagnoses, and safer care. Prescribing is also expected to be safer and more accurate.

Overall, EHR are supposed to make healthcare more convenient for patients and providers. They should protect and enhance the privacy and security of patients. Documentation will no longer be illegible or incomplete, with more accurate and streamlined coding and billing. Costly procedures can be reduced because each provider has access to the patients EHR. Information will be made available in real-time. When providers communicate with each other and have access to a mutual patient’s EHR, healthcare can be made safer and more in tune with the patient’s health issues. Once a patient portal has been implemented, it then becomes a function of the healthcare administration teams responsibility to update the patients records.

Overall Pros and Cons

Pros

Burnout is an insidious problem. We try to cover it up, but it is all but impossible to ignore. Healthcare professionals who suffer burnout tend to experience insomnia, an array of physical pains, loss of appetite, anxiety, and chronic fatigue, to only name symptoms related to physical and emotional fatigue. Burned-out healthcare workers also become cynical and detached from their environments. They might lose their sense of enjoyment, become pessimistic about the future, and feel both isolated and detached from others.

Here are some symptoms to look out for:

Improved Quality of Care: Because an EHR is accessible by multiple providers, healthcare is more targeted to patient needs and is potentially safer. An EHR should have fewer errors than a paper chart due to the use of dropdowns and typing rather than requiring hand writing of each item (EHRs enable medical practices to minimize spelling errors and help eradicate illegible handwriting.) Communication between doctors should improve when they use an EHR, as each doctor has full access to their mutual patient’s medical history. Consolidating records into one location allows medical practices to turn their efforts to actual patient care. Being able to share information with other providers after receiving patient authorization also makes it easier to coordinate medical care.

Convenience and Efficacy: An EHR makes it easier for doctors to find out what other providers have decided and prescribed. They can all follow up with their patient and track ongoing care. Using an EHR allows doctors to save precious time during a medical visit.

Financial Incentives: Having access to a patient’s EHR (particularly within the same medical group) means that each doctor’s practice will save money. Because they save money, the patient does as well. For instance, if one doctor wants to order an expensive diagnostic test, they could avoid it by seeing if another doctor has already ordered and/or received test results from such a test within a reasonable time frame.

Cons

Privacy and Security Issues: EHR’s come with the same expectation of security and privacy that paper records should have. However, because multiple medical providers have access to one patient’s chart, security and privacy can become a real issue. While paper records were highly limited, only available to one person or professional at a time, electronic records can be accessed by multiple individuals, including possible third-party access by those who have no legal or medical reason to access patient records.

Possible Inaccuracies

Three areas are of concern:

Delayed documentation: With additional documentation required, providers may wait to post notes and close them out until the end of the day or even later. This means that a patient receiving ongoing care may not have important information added to their chart right away, like newly prescribed medication or other changes in treatment.

Empty data fields: Auto-population and rushing through filling in EHR’s may lead to empty fields and inaccurate new records.

Copy and paste: While convenient, this may endanger patient safety if not double-checked for accuracy.

Empty data fields: Auto-population and rushing through filling in EHR’s may lead to empty fields and inaccurate new records.

Copy and paste: While convenient, this may endanger patient safety if not double-checked for accuracy.

Patient Access

Pros

Shared information Between Caregivers: When patients have their medical information put into an EHR, they should benefit from the sharing of their information between each of their doctors. If, for instance, the patient’s primary provider refers their patient to an allergist, then these two professionals will be able to access their mutual patient’s record.

When a hospital can share information on a patient with their doctor, this makes deciding on needed medical care much easier. Rather than waiting for paper records to be faxed, emailed, or mailed to the practice, they are there almost in real-time.

Improved Preventive Health: One intent of electronic health records is better preventive healthcare. The records show when a patient has received a flu vaccine or other early healthcare services. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires everyone with health coverage to receive preventive healthcare. The EHR indicates when a patient has received such a procedure, such as vaccinations.

EHRs serve as a reminder to family doctors to track preventive healthcare services for specific medical conditions. If a patient suffers from high blood pressure and diabetes, they need to have regular blood pressure checks and undergo regular A1C tests. In turn, this helps patients to be more mindful of the steps they need to take to improve their health (diet, medication, exercise).

Shortened Clerical Time: Doctors, nurses, and clerical staff are required to put significant time into updating charts. With paper charts, this was a labor-intensive chore requiring nurses and doctors to write everything down manually. With EHRs, the hope is that medical professionals can make these entries on electronic tablets or computers, quickly updating each patient’s record without hassle.

Practices also use electronic standing orders to reduce clerical time. Paper checklists are used to communicate between doctors and clerical staff. Clerks enter electronic orders into each patient’s EHR. This shortens the amount of time a doctor spends on the EHR, delegating this responsibility to clerical staff.

Quick Lab, Imaging, and Prescription Order Entry: Point-of-care settings make it easier for doctors and nurses to order prescriptions, lab tests, and imaging tests quickly. Also, if two separate practices are electronically linked, this allows for collaborative approaches to care. E-prescriptions arrive at the pharmacy, ready for filling and imaging and lab facilities quickly receive test orders.

The patient can then go into a healthcare provider, give their authorization, and discuss with a provider the tests or imaging orders that have been entered. This requires that every EHR be securely linked via the internet and seamlessly integrated with medical information for the doctor and patient.

Charge Capture: Charge capture refers to tracking each charge to a patient for medical services given. An EHR makes it much easier for a medical practice to track a charge for each procedure performed. The average increase in per-patient charges is $11.09 and patient collections have increased by $11.48 on average. The increase in charges and collections may be due to more orders for additional services as well as improved documentation in each patient’s EHR. Forced completion of records and fewer errors in coding may also contribute to fewer mistakes in charging and collections.

Easy Sign-off on Nurse Notes/Activities: Providers are required to sign off on each patient’s chart. This used to mean taking each paper chart and signing each patient’s most recent orders, exams, and tests. Today, EHRs make it easier for this sign-off to be completed. This captures notes from the nurse, doctor, and the day’s medical activities for each patient.

Charting in an EHR restricts nurses and doctors to choose from a list of options, using several lists. Rather than writing free form, which can take up a significant amount of time when spread across all patients seen in a day, the doctor or nurse learn to limit themselves to the options available. Even so, professionals are required to thoroughly and accurately document each patient encounter.

E-Messaging Between Caregivers: In each patient’s EHR, a function for e-messaging with other providers allows each doctor to send off quick notes about diagnoses, tests ordered, and treatment decisions reached. It is quick and keeps each provider up to date on shared patients. It’s also much more efficient than playing telephone tag with each other.

If a primary care doctor is going to refer a patient to a specialist, e-messaging allows them to give the specialist a heads-up that a new patient is going to be requesting an appointment. The PCP also has the option to schedule the appointment via the e-message capability.

Greater Patient Participation: Today, an EHR can allow a patient to get more involved in their care. After their initial appointment, they should receive an email from their new doctor. This email allows them to create a login so they can review details of their care and, ideally, get information that they can use to communicate with their doctor in more detail.

Cons

Lack of Understanding: An EHR should be available for the patient to review. However, if it contains results that the patient doesn’t understand, this can lead to panic or fear. This is understandable, as test results are complicated and not created with patients in mind. While this is intended to promote patient empowerment, it may lead to a panicked call about the results of an exam or diagnostic test.

Different medical practices have to decide how patient access to their EHR will affect the practice, the patient-doctor relationship, and the patient. This functionality is intended to improve the doctor-patient relationship by allowing the patient to ask questions. Depending on the patient’s experience, it can also improve patient satisfaction.

When it comes to the effects on the medical practice, having patients call about tests or to ask questions may create too many demands on the staff’s time. If the patient doesn’t understand what they are reading, the doctor or one of the nurses will have to explain the entry.

Delay of Proper Care: EHRs are fairly new. The professionals who are charged with making entries in each patient’s record may not know how to complete specific tasks. If an update has changed how the EHR looks or responds to input, this makes it more difficult. This means delays in necessary medical care can happen, sometimes with tragic results.

In one case, a patient with a strong family history of breast cancer came into the OB/GYN’s office for testing. Genetic testing revealed that she potentially had a harmful mutation. This information was entered in large, bold, and capitalized lettering at the top of the chart. Lower down, a box with smaller print detailed that no mutations were found in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 sequencing.

The doctor scrolled down below the large warning box, missing the information there. A year-and-a-half later, the patient returned and was diagnosed with Stage III ovarian cancer. She filed a lawsuit against the doctor. If the doctor had seen the warning, they would have recommended a bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, when her chance of primary peritoneal cancer was about 1%.

In this case, the EHR could have been helpful, but the way it was set up, or the doctor’s lack of familiarity with the format, made it difficult for them to obtain all the needed information.

Time Wasted: While the EHR is supposed to make chart updates easier, in some cases it becomes more difficult. Some doctors are struggle with their tablets or computers when they should be communicating with patients. One study showed that doctors spend about 37% of their time looking at the computer. A second study showed that doctors spend almost 50% of their office time working on EHRs and other desk work. That’s compared to only 27% of direct clinical time with their patients. To be fair, that percentage grows when all medical practices and hospitals using EHRs are taken into account.

Lack of Integration: Different systems at hospitals or private practices don’t always mesh well with each other. Administrators and doctors are spending precious time trying to get separate systems to integrate. Thus, all functions may not work as intended, meaning EHRs in a hospital or private practice don’t always support financial, clinical, or administrative components and therefor aren’t as useful as they are touted to be.

This extends to different EHR workflows for most hospitals and private practices. This has developed because the workflow in one EHR isn’t easily customizable with the EHR workflow for another provider. Technology limitations in EHR systems are to blame, even in those EHR systems that are among the best. This is due to a lack of technological standardization in the industry.

Cost: Start-up costs for an electronic health record system can be tremendous to each practice or hospital. Charts have to be converted to electronic format and training is required for all workers (nurses and doctors). All the requirements for the shift cost money that each provider has to pay out of its own business accounts. Expensive IT setups, trainers and training time for staff, and even time lost when looking for a paper record that has already been transitioned to EHR all cost care facilities more and more money.

E-Messaging Between Caregivers: E-messaging may be a positive because of the speed and apparent efficiency gained, but it takes face-to-face communication away from medical practitioners. This can lead to a loss of give-and-take in communication. Also, in an e-message it is difficult to ascertain emotion or tone. Practitioners worry that they may be missing something the other doctor needs. Miscommunications also lead to frustration or delays that can result in a patient’s worsening health or even death. Some doctors don’t read the e-messages sent from other doctors due to the apparent urgency of calls and a lack of time, which again can lead to dire consequences for their mutual patients.

Lack of Accountability for Updates: While medical facilities may be held accountable for the creation of an EHR system for their patients, who is responsible for making sure those systems receive continuous updates? It’s difficult to watch every hospital, care facility, and doctor’s practice to ensure that updates happen as needed. This means that safety and security may fall by the wayside as hospitals become lax in updating their systems. With the addition of millions of people’s personal information into the virtual realm, care facilities must be extra careful to improve their security as intrusive software becomes better and more prevalent.

Possible HIPPA Violations: With the use of EHRs going up, violations of the HIPPA patient privacy law are going up. The public isn’t aware that individual violations are as high as they are. When a HIPPA violation is reported, the responsible healthcare organization may be required to pay a fine that ranges from $100 to as high as $1.5 million.

The 1996 Act aligned national standards for confidentiality and security, protecting patients and their health records. While a computer can be lost or hacked, a violation may be as simple as gossiping about a patient’s health status with others.

The EHR is a report of a patient’s medical history, physical exams, treatments, and investigations, in digital format. While they have the potential to increase patients’ access to healthcare, they also introduce new ethical issues. For instance, if a patient’s health record is linked or shared without that patient’s written authorization, their privacy has been violated. Knowing their information may be shared, they may hold information back. If the doctor doesn’t know something key to the patient’s condition, treatment can be impacted.

If thousands of patient EHRs are stolen or hacked, their private medical information can be spread. Security breaches can threaten the privacy a patient expects to have. When their information is widely available to others who have no business holding it, ramifications can be severe. Implementation of a new EHR system can cause major frustrations and challenges to a health organization. Some frustrations include wasted resources, such as funding or time. When a provider office is having difficulty in adjusting to a new patient record system, patients themselves can lose confidence in their doctors, nurses, and clerical staff. Patient safety may also be compromised. When a healthcare institution or hospital makes improvements to the electronic system without inviting the input of doctors and nurses, these clinicians become frustrated because they have to adjust to yet another new form of patient record-keeping.

Project Euler Problem 15 Solution in Python

The problem statement can be found here. For reference, it is stated below:

LATTICE PATHS

Starting in the top left corner of a 2×2 grid, and only being able to move to the right and down, there are exactly 6 routes to the bottom right corner.

How many such routes are there through a 20×20 grid?

Image source: Project Euler, problem 15.

I decided to skip ahead to talking about this problem because I find it to be a bit more interesting to talk about than the other ones.

If we go against conventional wisdom and consider the top left corner to be $(0,0)$ and the bottom right corner to be $(2,2)$, we can very easily count how many routes there are by drawing it out, as done in the image provided by Project Euler. However, it would be painful and ridiculous to manually count out all of these paths by hand. Instead, it would be far simpler to reduce this down mathematically before trying to figure out a code to count it all out.

Considering the $20 \times 20$ grid (or, truthfully, any $n \times n$ grid for some $n \in \mathbb{N}$), we define the ‘steps’ we are allowed to take to get to the bottom right corner as the set $S = \left\{ (0,1), (-1,0) \right\}$ since we are only allowed to go down or go right.

In general, the number of paths from $(0,0)$ to $(a,b) \in \mathbb{N}\times\mathbb{N}$ is $ \binom{a+b}{a} = \binom{a+b}{b} $ -- side note, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get MathJaX to display the binomial coefficients! I’ve officially become too old for this technology BS. Anyway, this is because a lattice path corresponds to choosing $a$ horizontal moves or $b$ vertical moves from a selection of $a+b$ moves.

There are more complicated ways we can define movements on the lattice paths that produce interesting results, but we aren’t concerned with those; feel free to Google “lattice paths catalan numbers” if you’ve suddenly developed a passion for combinatorics.

Without writing any code, we can easily compute that the answer should be $ \binom{20+20}{20} = \binom{40}{20} $ which equals 137846528820. You can input this as your answer on Project Euler and it will be marked correct. However, we’re obviously here to write out Python code that gives us this result, so we’re not quite done yet.

Remember, we decided to throw middle fingers up at all conventions and call the origin the top left corner. We already figured out what the answer needs to be. Instead of making our lives more difficult than they need to be, we can import the math library which already has factorials defined. From basic combinatorics, we know that $${}_n C_r = \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}.$$

Since Python apparently doesn’t have this as an already defined function, we can define a new function that calculates $n$ choose $r$ using the factorial function. We don’t necessarily have to use floor division, but the .0 at the end lowkey bothers me so hello, floor division!

To generalize, you can just input any positive integer for the new x and y coordinates to get the number of paths to some other point. However, we care specifically about number of paths to the bottom right corner of the $20 \times 20$ grid:

Enter new x coordinate: 20 Enter new y coordinate: 20 There are 137846528820 paths

We can also check with the coordinates $(2,2)$ and see that the answer will be 6 paths, so we are done. 🥳

True Prologue For The Book

Az’krah

Prologue

Sre’ja hefted her energy rifle, scanning the empty mesa for any signs of life. Nothing, again. Her third planet and she still hadn’t found another suitable species to be enslaved for the Az’krani Empire. She kicked a rock and walked back to her small ship. Her mandibles clicked in frustration.

‘If I don’t find something soon I’ll be put into the Drekka Prison Camp’ She thought to herself.

She placed one of her 8-fingered hands on the ship, admiring the stark beauty of this world. It was a small one, over a hundred parsecs from her species homeworld, with a rather thick atmosphere for its size, but then again it’s a little far from its parent star. She sighed and climbed into the ship. At least this world has potential for a mining colony. She typed it into the ships computer and sent the file to her command post.

Her next target was about 4 parsecs away, at the star Sol, so she could do it within a single jump. She sighed to herself. The engineer caste still has been unable to fix the overheating issue that occurs whenever they try to jump more than 25 lightyears at a time. But, then again they don’t see it as an issue.

She entered the coordinates, and let the Nav system do the rest. She lay down on the padded part of the floor, designed specifically for her species long lower bodies. She fell asleep, and waited to arrive at her destination.

********

The ship came out of the jump with a jolt, waking Sre’ja from her rest. She stood up and stretched, then walked over to the command center of the ship. There were 3 planets of interest, and a small moon in the outer regions. She looked out over the system, the closest planet was the third one from Sol. It was a small blue marble, right in the middle of the preferential life zone. She smiled. She could already see signs of intelligent life on it, unless it’s just a massive hunk of radioactive materials sending electromagnetic waves everywhere.

Finally.

She grabbed the joystick to manually steer her ship with the sublight engines, and turned on the stealth drive. Now they wouldn’t be able to detect her unless they hit the exact center of the craft with a gamma laser, or if they could sense the ships bend in spacetime, as the stealth drive bent the rest of the electromagnetic spectrum around the ship. She pushed forward on the joystick, aiming her craft for the world.

She gazed in amazement at the planets readings as she moved closer. Not only was there sentient life, but it was a deathworld. It’s axis had a massive tilt for a planet, and a very elliptical orbit, and yet, the life survived. Hell they thrived. Through what would have been very harsh seasons, they didn’t die. Very odd.

As she got closer, dozens of small space stations, looking like old wheels from a millennium ago circled the planet, spinning on a central axis. A stream of small ships, all with sublight engines, darted between the main planet and its singular massive moon, which itself was covered in colonies.

She put that aside, this must be a peaceful race if they were to achieve this level of colonization, and must have never warred except for against the planet they lived on. She entered the atmosphere, which was showing up as being very nitrogen rich, perfect for the Az’krah, but with high amounts of oxygen as well. That’s troubling. But, it’s only 7 percent above her atmosphere’s normal level, nowhere near lethal, so they may still be able to invade.

Then she saw it. One of their cities. It was massive, covering hundreds of square kilometers. But that wasn’t the only marvel, as she approached, she saw the unnatural starkness of its planning, with the straightest lines she’d ever seen splitting it into smaller and smaller sections. And the buildings, some of the most beautiful structures she had ever seen, much more beautiful than anything her species was able to construct.

She had seen enough. The Command should know, she found a suitable species for her masters to enslave. Those practiced at the art of construction at that, without signs pointing towards any high forms of weaponry or violence. She hit the controls, and warped out of the system, back to her home planet.

At least I’ll get to see my brother again. She thought as she prepared the hibernation chamber for her weeklong journey.

She reached her home planet, a large, rocky planet with an intense magnetic field, and a thick atmosphere, it’d be barren with the exception of the poles, if the Az’krani hadn’t developed agriculture. She landed her ship at the Imperial Spaceport, and exited in a hurry, galloping on her four armored legs. She could only gallop for a few minutes at the most, but came upon a transport, thankfully, and hopped on it.

She must inform General Zhû’læ. She flew by hundreds of her brethren, passing military and cargo ships on her way, before finally hitting the tunnel that would take her to the Command center.

She stepped off the transport and removed her helmet, she had never been more nervous in her life. She finally found a species to use, and within 500 light years of home. She double checked her portable computer, and there was still no data on the planet. She walked through the door and kneeled at the golden Az’krani in front of her.

“Sir, I found one. A suitable world with billions of slave-worthy individuals.”

The massive commander turned around, one set of hands clasped behind his back, the other clasped in front of him.

“You’ve done well. You may take 20 days of the Emperor and rest before resuming work. Upload the coordinates to the database for the Assimilation Caste to go and collect them.”

She perked up at that. Rarely does one get a single day of the Emperor for rest, let alone 20.

“Yes sir!!” She exclaimed and walked out of the room.

I think I’m going to see Sa 7’s moons for my vacation... that would be nice.

Sre’ja walked out of the Imperial Spaceport, into the sprawling First City. A fitting name for it, being the first city their species ever created, and then it was only out of necessity. Their species was not evolved to be social, but after their species was enslaved for a thousand years, then decimated, they had to evolve, quickly. And evolve they did, using technology left by those who deemed the planet no longer adequate for their needs. They discovered many marvels, from advanced ones, such as how to create antimatter reactors, to simple ones, such as how to make a shovel. And thus, the Az’krani empire was born.

She walked through the streets, now dissatisfied with the architecture. One of the few things that never changed was the adobe building material. It displeased her aesthetic to no end. But, they had an abundance of the ingredients, and not enough engineering expertise to create the giant structures she had found at Sol. Hopefully the species she discovered would be able to create a new city, using their gorgeous designs.

She arrived at the house she was seeking, and entered. Her brother, fresh out of the Assimilation Academy sat in the main room. He stood up and embraced her.

“It’s been too long, Sre’ja!” He exclaimed.

“That it has been Vek’tra!”

“How was your tri—“ He was cut off by a buzzing at his hip. A mission. He swore under his breath.

“Don’t worry about it, I’ll see you when you get back.”

He clicked his mandibles in affirmation and strode out the door, leaving Sre’ja wondering if they were going to go to that planet she found...

End of prologue. Please give me feedback, let me know what you think.

Title: Blockchain in Healthcare: 11 Sectors That Could Be Improved

Author: Dusan Belic (@dusanb).

Blockchain is one of those buzz words you can hardly miss in the media these days. Yes, it was propelled to the public imagination with the rise of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, but the technology can have many other uses cases beyond moving money from one side of the planet to the other.

In fact, it is now in minds of many tech giants and even governments which can clearly see blockchain’s power to transform how businesses operate by decentralizing business models, creating more efficient processes, and providing a more secure and reliable way to exchange data.

The healthcare industry is one of the sectors where blockchain can really prove its worth. For one thing, it can reduce the liability and accuracy concerns related to the exchange of medical data, while providing cryptographic security to protect patient identity “out of box.” Eventually, every patient will have its own “data wallet” to store and manage his/her medical records, and provide third parties with access to that data when needed.

But I’m getting ahead of myself, here are 11 sectors in healthcare that could be improved with blockchain (an excerpt from our “Blockchain in Healthcare” report):

1. Supply Chain Management

Blockchain and supply chain are seen by many as a match made in heaven. Major tech companies — such as IBM, SAP, Microsoft and Accenture — are already working on decentralized versions of their supply chain solutions, or are creating new ones from the ground up. Also, some of them are developing universal blockchain solutions that would be able to power a different kind of applications, supply chain management included.

In the healthcare space, supply chain management (SCM) solutions are employed by manufacturers of pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and other healthcare supplies and equipment. Compared to regular, centralized solutions, the one based on blockchain improves traceability, contract enforcement & management, damage & mishandling management, oversight on counterfeiting, auditing, and at the end — consumer trust, with end-users being able to learn the ins and outs of an item they are looking to buy.

2. Health Records Management

Blockchain’s ability to use time stamping to authenticate changes to a dataset, even if more than one user has permission to edit a document, is said to be ideal for managing Electronic Health Records (EHR) data. In fact, current EHR systems were not designed to manage multi-institutional, life-time medical records. This in turn leads to the situation in which patients leave data scattered across various organizations as life events take them away from one provider’s data silo and into another.

In contrast, a blockchain-based system puts the patient in the driver’s seat, letting him/her authorize third parties such as doctors and nurses to access and modify their health records. Also, it is the patient who is able to let health systems share these records with other organizations.

3. Population Health

Generally speaking, on the other end of most EHR solutions is the population health “module.” And with a blockchain-based EHR, organizations across the healthcare spectrum can potentially get access to higher quality data, which should then aid their population health efforts while making sure patients get more personalized treatments.

4. Patient Matching

A blockchain-based system can meet the needs of master patient ID as long as there is consensus on what the requirements should be. And that’s arguably the harder part — for all the parties to agree on what constitutes a global or universal patient ID, and later implement it in their respective solutions. Then, once an agreement on a starting point for patient ID is reached, blockchain can meet those needs and be flexible enough to keep up with the pace of change.

5. Patient Engagement

When the patient data is stored in a blockchain, it can be easily and safely moved between existing physician and patient data silos, all while offering improved data management and security. In addition, because of the technology’s underlying structure, a blockchain-based solution could offer digital incentives to encourage patients/users to complete certain fitness activities and take charge of their own healthcare, with their efforts earning them tokens.

Depending on the partnerships the platform provider has established with third parties, these tokens can then be exchanged for real-life products, discounts, co-pays, coupons and even converted into money.

6. Care Coordination

The patient encounters with the healthcare system are seldom connected, especially if he/she moves from one state to the other (or even one country to the other). The same goes for any communication a patient has with physicians — even if it’s electronic communication, its record seldom leaves the premises (servers) of that particular hospital.

Blockchain as a decentralized ledger can play an important role to store not only patient data, but also all encounters a patient has with healthcare providers. Such, unifying solution could go beyond “basic” health records to include longitudinal data to the mix, linking and connecting all care provider encounters and communication through a single platform.

7. Genomics

Compared to the popular services like 23andMe and Ancestry, a blockchain-based system could include end users in the equation, allowing them to control their own genomic data and profit from sharing it. In this scenario, users would get discounted rates for whole genome sequencing if they agree to share their data to third parties. This in turn could lead to an increase in the amount of genomic information available for analysis from where machine learning algorithms would kick in to find correlations between genetic variants and diseases from these larger data sets.

Furthermore, as the genome data buyers (pharma companies) and genome data providers (individuals) would be directly connected, the buyers will be able to obtain more information about phenotypes and family histories, in addition to genotypes.

8. Insurance Claims Processing

The current system entails all brokers and insurers involved in an insurance contract independently running all of the checks, thus creating significant duplication and delay in the placement process which impacts the client. With blockchain, all the relevant data is stored in one place and available to those who require access, removing the need to check the same data multiple times.

Moreover, the system could be developed to use smart contracts to “tune into other blockchains” — such as the one with patient medical records (EHR) — to further streamline procedures, and shorten the application process from an average of 45 days to near real time.

9. Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are said to be among the best use cases for blockchain. For start, blockchain acts as an ultimate data notary, storing and securing data as it happens. It provides a safe environment that is virtually impossible to hack, infringe or steal — while making auditing that much easier.

In addition, a blockchain-based system can streamline patient recruitment, consents and use smart contracts to automate many of today’s manual tasks. For instance, a simple mechanism could be deployed to automatically move patients from one group or one phase to the other once certain conditions have been met.

In addition, blockchain could also be used to streamline the communication between doctors and patients during the trial, with specific smart contracts being used to endorse transparency and traceability over clinical trial sequences, as well as provide financial incentives for a patient’s participation and sharing of their data.

10. Fighting the Opioid Epidemic

A few experts have suggested that blockchain could be a useful tool in combating the opioid epidemic. For start, the technology’s ability to improve supply chain management makes it ideal for keeping a close eye on opiods (and any other drug for that matter), tracking them from production down to local pharmacies.

On the other hand, as blockchain enters the health records “space,” it could also aid in population health efforts of hospitals, health systems and governments; helping them better control the outbreaks.

Finally, the decentralized nature of blockchain makes it a great tool for researchers around the world to collaborate on development of opioid alternatives.

11. Security

Storing and securing data in a blockchain across multiple nodes could prevent ransomware attacks. If a hacker manages to get hold of one computer in the network, there are always others that contain the same data. And even with all the data from the blockchain at hand, a hacker could do little without private keys. That’s the whole point, to encrypt the data so it falls into the wrong hands — it can’t be misused, all while having reserve copies on other nodes in the network.

If we look at the infamous WannaCry attack, a blockchain-based system would make it ineffective by having continuously synchronized and secure backups of all personal information. Because all the data is encrypted and available on multiple computers, it would be extremely difficult for a cyberattack to hold a hospital to ransom.

What is Computer Numerical Control Machining? A description of the CNC Machining Process

Computer Numerical Control (CNC machining) is a manufacturing procedure which is controlled by a pre-programmed program that controls the motion of machines and tools. This process can be used to control a range of complicated machinery, including grinders and lathes as in addition to mills and CNC routers. With CNC machining, cutting in three dimensions tasks can be accomplished in a single set of instructions.

The CNC process runs contrary to and supersedes manual control's limitations, where live operators are needed to prompt and guide the operations of the tools by using buttons, levers and wheels. For those who don't know an CNC machine may appear to be the typical set of computer components, however the software applications and consoles used in CNC machining distinguish it from all other forms of computation.

If you're thinking of using CNC manufacturing to make a variety of products, find out more about how CNC machining and CNC programming work. It is also important to learn about the most common types of CNC equipment and the type of work it's capable of to determine if it is able to satisfy your requirements.

If you're considering using CNC manufacturing to produce various products, find out more about the way CNC manufacturing and CNC programming work. It is a good idea to learn about the different types of CNC machinery, and what it can do to meet your needs.

What is CNC Machining How Does CNC Machining Work?

When a CNC machine is activated, the desired cuts are entered into the software and dictated to the appropriate machinery and tools which perform the dimensional tasks as specified as if a robot.

The code generator that is used in CNC programming assumes that all mechanisms are in perfect order even though there is the potential for errors. This is the case even though metal fabrication near me is directed towards cutting in more than one direction simultaneously. A sequence of inputs is referred to as the part program. It describes how a tool will be integrated into a numerical control program.

In a numerical control machine programming is input through punch cards. By contrast, the programs for CNC machines are passed to computers through tiny keyboards. The programming for CNC is saved in the computer's memory. The code itself is written and edited by programmers. CNC systems have a much more powerful computational capabilities. CNC systems can be modified to add new prompts to existing software.

CNC Machine Programming

CNC manufacturing employs the use of numerical control to operate machines. A software program is utilized to control an object. G-code is the programming language used to describe CNC machining. It's designed to control various machine behaviors, including speed, feed rate, coordination, and coordination.

Because of these capabilities, the procedure has been adopted across every aspect of the manufacturing sector, and CNC manufacturing is particularly crucial in the areas of production of plastic and metal. Find out more about the types of machines used and the ways in which CNC machine programming fully automates manufacturing using CNC below:

Open/Closed-Loop Machining Systems

During the CNC manufacturing process, position control is made by either an open-loop or closed loop system. With the former, the signaling is sent in a single direction from the CNC controller and the motor. A closed-loop system the controller can be able to receive feedback, which makes error correction feasible. Thus, a closed-loop system can rectify the irregularities in velocity and location.

In cnc router, movement is directed along the X and Y. The tool, in turn is guided and positioned through servo or stepper motors, which replicate precise movements as defined by the G-code. If the force and speed are minimal, the process can be run via open-loop control. In all other cases it is essential to control the closed loop to guarantee the speed, consistency and accuracy needed for industrial processes like metalwork.

CNC Machining Can be Fully Automated

In today's CNC protocols, the production of components using pre-programmed software is largely automated. Computer-aided design software (CAD) determines the dimensions of a piece before converting them into a finished product by using computer-aided manufacture software (CAM). To ensure you get the most competitive cost and quality, you need to examine all aspects of the business prior to making your decision fabrication shop. This will allow you to locate a machine shop that is efficient and top-quality that will increase the efficiency of your project.

There are a variety of tools required for any task, which includes drills as well as cutters. Modern machines can combine multiple functions into one machine to meet these requirements.

Alternately, an installation might consist of multiple machines as well as a set of robotic hands that can transfer components from one program to another and are being controlled by the same software. The CNC process, regardless of how it's setup can ensure the production of parts that are consistent, which could otherwise be difficult to duplicate manually.

What is CNC Machining? An explanation of the CNC Machining Process

Computer Numerical Control (CNC) CNC is a process for manufacturing in which pre-programmed computer software controls the movements of factory tools and machinery. This process is used to control a range of complex machinery, from lathes and grinders to mills and CNC routers. The three-dimensional cutting task can be done in one sequence of commands using CNC machine.

The CNC process operates in opposition to and supersedes manual control's limitations, where live operators are needed to guide and prompt the commands of machining tools via levers, buttons and wheels. For those who don't know an CNC system may look like an ordinary set of computer components, however, the software and consoles utilized in CNC processing distinguish it from all other forms of computation.

Learn more about CNC programming and CNC machine machining if you're looking to utilize CNC manufacturing to make diverse products. It might be helpful to learn about the different kinds of CNC equipment, and how it can do to meet your requirements.

Learn more about CNC programming and CNC machine machining if you're interested in using CNC manufacturing to make different products. It could be beneficial to understand the various kinds of CNC machinery, and what it can accomplish to meet your requirements.

What is CNC Machining Work?

The CNC system starts when the cuts you want to make are programmed in the software. This dictates to the right tools and machinery which are able to perform the dimensions, similar to the robotic robot.

In CNC programming the code generator in the numerical system will often believe that the mechanisms are perfect, regardless of the possibility of mistakes which are higher when haas mini mill is instructed to cut in multiple directions simultaneously. The position of a tool in the numerical control system is defined by a set of inputs, referred to as the part programming.

With a numerical control machine the programs are entered via punch cards. In contrast, the software designed for CNC machines are transmitted to computers via small keyboards. Computers store CNC programming in its memory. The code itself is written and edited by programmers. This means that CNC systems have an incredibly large computational capacity. Additionally, CNC systems aren't static since newer prompts can be added to pre-existing programs by modifying the codes.

CNC Machine Programming

CNC manufacturing employs the use of numerical control to operate machines. Software programs are used to control an object. The language used in CNC machining is alternately referred to as G-code, and is written to control various features of the machine, like the speed, feed rate , and coordination.

These capabilities have been able to make CNC manufacturing a regular process in all fields of manufacturing. It is particularly important for metal and plastic production. Learn more about the types of CNC machining equipment and how CNC machine programming fully automates CNC manufacturing .

Systems for Open/Closed-Loop Machining

Position control during CNC manufacturing is achieved by using an open-loop (or closed-loop) system. In the first, the signaling runs in a single direction, between the CNC controller and motor. In a closed loop system, the controller is capable of receiving feedback, making errors correction possible. So, a closed-loop controller can rectify irregularities in velocity and position.

In cnc lathe, movement is usually directed across X and Y axes. The tool, in turn, is positioned and guided through servo or stepper motors that replicate exact movements as specified by the G-code. If the force and speed are minimal then the process could be controlled by open loop control. Closed-loop control is required to ensure speed as well as the consistency and precision needed for industrial applications such as metalwork.

CNC Machining is Easily Automated

Today's CNC protocols permit the automation of part production through pre-programmed software. The dimensions of a component are set using computer-aided design (CAD) software, and later transformed into a final product using computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software. For the best cost and quality make sure you look over all aspects of the business before you make your selection fabrication shop near me. This way, you'll be able find an excellent machine shop that can improve the quality of your work.

Every work piece can require a variety of machines, including drills and cutters. Many modern machines combine multiple tasks into one machine to meet these requirements.

Alternatively, an installation could comprise multiple machines as well as a group of robotic hands that shift components between programs. However, everything is managed by a single program. The CNC process, regardless of how it is set up can ensure consistent parts production that is otherwise impossible to replicate manually.

Benefit of Integrated HR Solution With Payroll, Leave, HR Functions and Fingerprint System

Presentation:

Having an appropriate HR arrangement is a vital errand for the HR leaders to deal with their workers.

The essential occupation of HR chief is to oversee representatives day by day participation, for example the representatives consistently Time IN and Time OUT. There are different ways for it. Generally the organizations utilizing manual punch card machine, later vicinity card framework/standardized tag card framework was set up. Yet at the same time there was an issue of mate punching (making intermediary participation for different representatives). To resolve the issue Biometric Fingerprint framework has presented which is extremely quick/exact and productive.

When workers TIME IN and OUT planning caught by a machine then it must be connected to a Time Attendance Software to create the helpful participation reports. Those determined participation subtleties should be connected to finance programming for the worker pay estimation. Notwithstanding that there is a need to keep up with worker leaves like yearly leave, clinical leave, neglected leave, and so forth

Assuming a HR director has all the above arrangements with various merchants/distinctive stage then it will be undeniably challenging to keep up with and work. There will be parcel of hiccups to incorporate the distinctive programming and all the more significantly being the data set isn't coordinated the recently join/leave representative subtleties should be entered on numerous occasions in various programming.

So it exceptionally productive and financially savvy to have an incorporated HR arrangement which contains unique mark time recorders (ideally), time participation, leave, Payroll and HR programming.

Unique finger impression Time Recorder: It is exceptionally productive to make some unique mark memories recorders to follow the representatives participation as opposed to having manual punch card. The greatest benefit of utilizing the unique finger impression framework is the workers can not do the pal punching (making intermediary participation for different representatives).

Generally in the vast majority of the finger impression time recorder, Up to 3 fingers for each worker can be enrolled.

The Benefits of Using AutoCAD

AutoCAD is a widely-used software program. Created by Autodesk, the program provides professionals with many tools that help create high-quality drawings. AutoCAD tools also help to achieve more accuracy in design and reduce error, leading to better designs. The program is commonly used by architects, engineers, and designers. AutoCAD software can also be used by those working in advertising and sales, among other areas. A common problem faced by designers is how to communicate their vision through standard drawings. Drawings can be unclear, and team members who lack a background in engineering or industrial design may not easily grasp the concept. Standard drawings on paper also take time. AutoCAD drawings are less time-consuming and more easily read. Drawings done on AutoCAD are impressive to look at, and they demonstrate the design function and aesthetics without the need to spend resources on a prototype. There is a limit to how small you can draw something by hand. AutoCAD allows designing down to the smallest fraction, creating a more accurate dimensional design. The program makes it easy to accurately draw objects, as it comes with various options to set the design alignment and the exact scale you need. The screen has a rectangular grid where you can click on any grid interval to locate the needed point. And if this is not precise enough, you can still use the keyboard to key in the exact location coordinates where you want to start drawing. The inbuilt object snap tool allows locating points such as the center point of a line or circle. This eliminates the need to measure the lines when you want to find such points. Before the advent of computer-aided design, design revisions were done manually. This meant making changes a drawing or creating an entirely new drawing. The outcome was often difficult to interpret and even messy. With AutoCAD, changing and manipulating designs is easy. And since all the design work is done using 3D visualization, identifying a problem before production starts becomes much easier. This reduces mistakes and errors in design work. In addition, digital designs can quickly be improved and enhanced. AutoCAD has evolved over the years as more and more designers have adopted it. Autodesk, its creator, has provided network resources for user groups, greatly strengthening the program user community. Platforms that offer support and feedback include the Autodesk Group Network, Autodesk University, AutoCAD Forums, and the Autodesk Knowledge Network, among others. These various feedback loops inform and contribute to software development at Autodesk, providing a unique window to incorporate community-driven fixes, enhancements, and features. In addition, AutoCAD can be accessed in fourteen language packs, immensely expanding access and growing the community. Data forms an important component of AutoCAD. The Express Tools make data management easier, including data exporting and importing. Shared data can include schedules, volumes, quantities, and areas. Such data can be automatically generated or entered manually for sharing via Data Links. In addition, the program has an SHF text recognition tool useful in converting the imported geometries from PDF text to text objects for easy editing.

Most 10 actions for companies facing a pandemic

At a time when more than 50 countries are seeking to prepare or manage the impacts of a pandemic, many companies are actively fulfilling their responsibilities before their professionals and society. As protagonists of the economy and the business environment, organizations have as basic responsibilities the good conduct of business and care for their employees. Given the current global pandemic, Deloitte believes that the greater the urgency, the more it is necessary for rules to be established and followed so that challenges are faced with reflection and resilience.

Establish emergency decision-making teams

Companies should immediately establish decision-making teams for urgent temporary matters, such as an “Emergency Response Team” or a “Major Emergencies Management Committee” to define the objectives to be achieved and create an emergency plan, in addition to ensure that decisions can be taken as quickly as possible in different situations;

As for the members of this committee, the company must evaluate its own professionals and, if necessary, bring in new ones to adapt its business to regional characteristics.

Assess risks and clarify emergency response mechanisms, plans and division of labor

Many companies already have “emergency contingency plans” or “business sustainability plans”, often implementing them immediately in the event of major emergencies;

If a company does not have such plans, it must make an immediate and comprehensive assessment of all risks, including issues with employees, third parties, government, other external audiences and its entire supply chain. According to the risk assessment, the company must answer questions related to office space, production plans, purchasing, supply and logistics, employee safety and financial capital, as well as taking care of other important matters related to emergency plans and division of work.

Establish a positive mechanism for communicating information to employees, customers and suppliers, and create standardized communication documents

It is important to stabilize supply chains and provide security for employees and external partners, as well as strengthen the management of information and services to customers to avoid a negative view resulting from negligence or inconsistency;

At the same time, the company’s existing information system should be used to collect, transmit and analyze pandemic information and immediately issue risk warnings.

Maintain the physical and mental well-being of employees and analyze the nature of different businesses and jobs to ensure the proper resumption of these jobs

According to Deloitte’s latest human resources survey on epidemic responses , 82 percent of companies believe “flexible working conditions” are essential for professionals. We recommend that companies immediately establish flexible work and vacation mechanisms, with the support of technologies, with parameters for off-site and distance work during specific periods;

In addition, the company must establish an employee health monitoring system and maintain the confidentiality of information about their health;

Companies must ensure the safety of work environments by rigorously cleaning and disinfecting workplaces in accordance with the management requirements of national and regional health and public health authorities in periods of high spread of infectious diseases;

Companies should strengthen safety education during pandemics, establish fact-based personal protection guidelines for employees, and increase awareness of safety and risk prevention.

Focus on risk response plans for the supply chain

Large companies often arrange in advance for the use of similar office facilities in other regions, which have the same capacity as affected areas, so that work in the “infected area” can be quickly resumed or so that production does not cease due to a lack of capacity or raw materials;

In inventory management, organizations should consider the extension of the merchandise usage cycle, caused by blocking consumption, the increase in associated financial costs and pressure on cash flow. At the same time, in sectors with long production cycles, organizations must prepare in advance for the resumption of consumption with the reduction of the pandemic, to prevent risks of insufficient stocks.

Develop solutions for compliance and customer relationship maintenance risks arising from the inability to resume production in the short term

After an outbreak, organizations must cooperate with customers to understand market changes and manage the impact of the upswing;

Laws on civil and commercial contract enforcement must be observed, as not all non-compliance during a pandemic can be exempt from legal consequences;

Companies must identify and evaluate contracts whose compliance may be affected and promptly notify the related party to mitigate possible losses, as well as assess whether it is necessary to enter into a new contract and maintain evidence for use in possible civil proceedings.

Practice of social responsibility and stakeholder management and incorporation of sustainable development strategies into decision making

Businesses must follow the local government’s unified planning and action plans;

Proper disclosure of corporate information can improve a company’s image;

The most important practice is to be able to implement corporate social responsibility in the environmental, social, and economic and employee stability sectors, as well as to coordinate relations with the community and suppliers. It is necessary to assess the potential impact and duration of the pandemic, adjust plans and, for shareholders or the governing board, communicate proposed measures and evaluation results.

Create a data management plan for professionals, ensuring security and confidentiality of information

Companies must establish good data management mechanisms for professionals, third parties, suppliers, partners and other professionals with whom they maintain contact;

It is also necessary to timely formulate information security emergency response plans to ensure the stability of the operation. Offer remote and internal support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to ensure the monitoring of computers, servers, networks, systems, applications and other IT resources and, thus, enable professionals who work at a distance, and those who work internally at the company to conduct their activities;

Companies must also protect the confidentiality of personal data and preliminary data from clinical examinations, especially those who are patients (whether customers or employees), strictly control the access, transmission and use of this data. For medical and clinical data, access controls and protection levels must be established.

Companies need to consider adjustments to their budgets and deployment plans, cash flow planning and advance notification mechanisms for international trade

We advise that companies pay attention to their cash flow, adjust their schedule of receipts and payments to guarantee resources according to the rhythm of suppliers and employees’ work plans;

In addition, it is necessary to pay close attention to the situation of imports and exports in international trade, especially sudden changes or disasters in places where most of the products originate, which will affect trade and could also generate large losses for the company. To prevent such events, companies should establish an emergency “scenario plan” for critical suppliers as quickly as possible, which may include hedging plans using futures contracts, international trade and transportation, as well as alternative suppliers.

Improved risk management mechanisms

The Deloitte Enterprise Risk Management Survey report shows that 76 percent of risk managers believe their companies could respond efficiently if a major emergency happened tomorrow. But only 49% of companies developed relevant manuals and pre-tested based on emergency scenarios, with only 32% of companies conducting emergency simulation exercises or training;

We understand that most companies must face unexpected risk events at any time – there is no doubt that events of this type will happen, but there is no way to predict when they will happen. Companies must establish or improve their risk management systems to identify key risks and develop plans to mitigate them. Strengthening the risk management system is just as important as dealing with negative events when they materialize.
