For example, a claim has an ICN of 1114100351480. The third and fourth digits of the ICN are 14, indicating the claim was received in calendar year 2014. The fifth, sixth, and seventh digits of the ICN are 100, indicating the claim was received on the 100th day of the calendar year. As such, the claim was received by Medicare on April 10, 2014.
Until recently, life on Earth was said to have begun 3.5 billion years ago, a date originally based on curvaceous, worm-like strings of microfossils â tiny remains of bacteria, protists, fungi, animals, and plants five-thousandths of a millimetre in length, found in the ancient rocks of Western Australia's Marble Bar.
The chemistry leading to life may have begun shortly after the Big Bang, 13.8 billion years ago, during a habitable epoch when the Universe was only 10â17 million years old. Though life is confirmed only on the Earth, many think that extraterrestrial life is not only plausible, but probable or inevitable.he chemistry leading to life may have begun shortly after the Big Bang, 13.8 billion years ago, during a habitable epoch when the Universe was only 10â17 million years old.
