S TOLL , Circuit Judge

. In our opinion in Universal Secure Registry LLC v. Apple, Inc. , No. 20

- 2044 (Fed. Cir. Aug. 26 , 2021 ), issued concomitantly with this opinion, we held claims 1– 35 of U.S. Patent No. 9,100,8 26 at issue in this appeal ineligible under 35 U.S.C. § 101. These thirty

- five overlapping claims were at issue in the underlying inter partes review proceeding. Accord ingly, for the reasons we explained in Apple Inc.

v. Voip

- Pal.com, Inc. , 976 F.3d 1316, 1321 ( Fed. Cir. 2020), the appeal of these overlapping claims is rendered moot in light of our decision in Universal Secure

. We vacate the Board’s final written decision and remand for the Board to dismiss Apple’s petition as to the overlapping claims.
This leaves us with proposed substitute claim 50, which depends from proposed substitute claim 45. The Board held this claim eligible. We conclude that proposed substit ute claim 50 is ineligible under § 101 for the same reasons we found representative claim 10 ineligible in Universal Secure

. While proposed substitute claim 50 includesmore specific limitations not found in claim 10, our conclusion under Alice steps one and two remain s the same: proposed substitute claim 50 is directed to an abstract idea and does not recite an inventive concept that transforms the abstract idea into a patent

- eligible invention

H. J. RES. 78

  Designating the weeks beginning May 23, 1993, and May 15, 1994, as 
                  ``Emergency Medical Services Week''.

_______________________________________________________________________

                    IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

                            January 27, 1993

    Mr. Manton introduced the following joint resolution; which was 
       referred to the Committee on Post Office and Civil Service

_______________________________________________________________________

                            JOINT RESOLUTION

 
  Designating the weeks beginning May 23, 1993, and May 15, 1994, as 
                  ``Emergency Medical Services Week''.

Whereas emergency medical services is a vital public service;
Whereas access to quality emergency care dramatically improves the survival and 
        recovery rate of those who experience sudden illness or injury;
Whereas efforts to establish emergency medicine as a medical specialty began 25 
        years ago with the founding of the American College of Emergency 
        Physicians in 1968;
Whereas the members of emergency medical services teams are ready to provide 
        lifesaving care to those in need 24 hours a day, 7 days a week;
Whereas emergency medical services teams consist of emergency physicians, 
        emergency nurses, emergency medical technicians, paramedics, 
        firefighters, educators, administrators, and others;
Whereas approximately \2/3\ of all emergency medical services providers are 
        volunteers;
Whereas the members of emergency medical services teams, whether career or 
        volunteer, engage in thousands of hours of specialized training and 
        continuing education to enhance their lifesaving skills;
Whereas Americans benefit daily from the knowledge and skills of these highly 
        trained individuals;
Whereas it is appropriate to recognize the value and the accomplishments of 
        emergency medical services providers by designating Emergency Medical 
        Services Week; and
Whereas the designation of Emergency Medical Services Week will serve to educate 
        all Americans about injury prevention and how to respond to a medical 
        emergency: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United 
States of America in Congress assembled, That the weeks beginning May 
23, 1993, and May 15, 1994, are designated as ``Emergency Medical 
Services Week'' and the President is authorized and requested to issue 
a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe 
such weeks with appropriate ceremonies and activities.
