Omaha, NE -- August 1, 2004 – COCO Development, LLC is set to launch its newest HR compliance solution, COBRApoint, a web-powered COBRA, HIPAA, State Continuation and Retiree Billing system, at 17th Annual Benefits Management Forum & Expo in Nashville, Tennessee, on September 19, 2004. COBRApoint’s revolutionary design makes it first COBRA compliance platform developed on and accessed by web. COBRApoint uses ASP.NET, SQL, XML and Java technologies to administer COBRA, HIPAA, state continuation, retiree billing and customized billing services for single employers and professional administrators. COBRApoint’s XML powered reporting suite offers both user and their clients real time web-based management tools. The solution’s letter-generation function can be off-loaded to an outsourced mail service, or letters can be printed locally. COBRApoint’s ability to accept file transfers in any format in use today enhances it flexibility and value to user. COBRApoint was developed by a national administrator of COBRA, HIPAA, State Continuation and Retiree Billing compliance services to satisfy its internal demands and challenges.

As a business owner, wouldn't it be great if you could take time off whenever you needed to? Unfortunately, most small business owners worry that business will fall apart if they're not there to mind store. Too often, they simply lack appropriate resources for their business to keep going in their absence. "Taking time off is as important as food," says Charles Tuttle, leader of a group of entrepreneurs in North Carolina. Don't worry if this statement raises a red flag for you. Although taking time off can be especially challenging and downright impossible sometimes, it's important to know that you can do something to make it happen. It takes deliberate work on your part and here are a few simple ideas to get you started. Find a way to make work fun. If your work is stressful, build in laughter to ease stress and tension. Take frequent breaks to stretch or breathe if you’re sitting all day. Fun makes passing of day more enjoyable. Try it and watch your fabulous day unfold! Take leisure time in smaller chunks. Look at opportunities to journal, meditate or read between appointments and activities. It may seem pointless but it goes a long way in developing your time management skills while caring for your need to unplug. Tap into a little bit of spare time in your productivity process. It’s a great way to balance scales in your favor! Plan personal time on your calendar. Your calendar reflects your commitment to priorities or what’s important in your life. Typically, if you set aside time on your calendar, you will observe it. Plan, then act to ensure you’re creating plenty of break time and doing something important in your life. You’ll have a greater sense of integrity and accomplishment at same time.
