This is one of the reasons that you should view the beneficiary's card to verify the number prior to billing Railroad Medicare. The letters in front of the number identify the claimant.

Transferrin Saturation Calculation. Transferrin Saturation (TSAT) is a medical laboratory value. It is the percent of transferrin that has iron bound to it. It is the ratio of serum iron (SE) and total iron-binding capacity, multiplied by 100. Transferrin Serum Iron Saturation calculator given here to determine the TSAT value based on the SE and total iron binding capacity.
Virtual concatenation (VCAT) is an inverse multiplexing technique creating a large capacity payload container distributed over multiple smaller capacity TDM signals. These signals may be transported or routed independently.Virtual concatenation has been defined for SONET / SDH, OTN and PDH path signals.CAT helps in providing services at a lower cost and more quickly than contiguous concatenation. However, it creates differential delay whereby each path that is created, represented by a VT has a different propagational delay across the network. The difference in these delays is called differential delay (D).
