The following description was taken from this source.MAESTRA is a three dimensional model of forest canopy radiation absorption, photosynthesis, and transpiration.adiation penetration to each grid point is calculated for three wavebands (i.e. PAR, near infrared and thermal radiation), including consideration of direct, diffuse and scattered radiation. Photosynthesis and transpiration at each grid point are calculated from the absorbed radiation.
Additionally, effective January 1, 2009, the Medicare Improvement for Patients and Providers Act (MIPPA) removed the screening EKG as a mandatory service of the initial preventive physical exam (IPPE).

What's not covered by Part A & Part B? Medicare doesn't cover everything.
