MedAppz iSuite(TM) Teams With ASG Software Solutions to Bring Electronic Medical Records to ASG Customers

WICHITA, KS--(Marketwire - January 26, 2009) - MedAppz, the leader in Web-based electronic health record (EHR) applications, today announced that ASG Software Solutions will incorporate MedAppz's iSuite technology into its ASG-Cypress solution for integrated document assembly and delivery . ASG is the originator of ASG's Business Service Portfolio™ (BSP™), an enterprise Business Service Management (BSM) solution in the world's leading markets.

Together, the partners' technologies aggregate and deliver electronic files of all types -- from medical histories and patient status to radiology imaging and lab results -- directly to attending physicians in real time. This not only fosters clinical collaboration and upgrades patient care, but also puts hospitals in good stead to comply with the new administration's stated goal of digitizing all medical records within the next five years.

ASG-Cypress captures documents, reports, scanned paper charts, faxes, e-mails, and other content from any source or application, then normalizes the content, empowering healthcare organizations to increase the quality of patient care, reduce costs, enhance patient security and confidentiality, limit liability and collect revenue faster. ASG technology optimizes information management processes in more than 200 hospitals today.

"Today's healthcare leaders rely on ASG-Cypress to ease the flow of documents, automate processes, and deliver solid returns on investment by enhancing patient care by putting all of a patient's critical information at the physicians' fingertips to mitigating risk, and reduce labor costs," said ASG President and CEO, Arthur L. Allen. "ASG is known for its commitment to delivering technically advanced, proven, and cost-effective technology to our customers in all major global markets, and we're delighted to be able to offer the benefits of MedAppz iSuite to our substantial and rapidly growing list of healthcare organizations."

The CCHIT-certified MedAppz iSuite is a comprehensive system that allows ambulatory care practices to securely schedule appointments, chart patient information, write prescriptions, bill patients, and file claims, while utilizing the compelling Software as a Service (SaaS) Web delivery model. MedAppz enables healthcare providers to fully manage, utilize, and access patient information by bridging the information access gap between providers, hospitals, and other healthcare organizations. The MedAppz iSuite is currently used in more than 200 clinics across the nation.

"MedAppz is thrilled to be selected by ASG to deliver increased healthcare automation to ASG-Cypress customers, which will not only accelerate the adoption of EHRs (electronic health records) among physicians, but improve the quality of patient care," said Brian Lichtlin, MedAppz CEO. "For years we've been at the forefront of EHR technology, and it's exciting to have the chance to work with ASG to drive down practice management costs and help healthcare professionals serve patients faster and more reliably."

The ASG-MedAppz™ suite will be introduced at the 2009 Annual HIMSS Conference & Exhibition in Chicago, IL (April 4-8, 2009). Pricing will be offered in a flexible fashion, allowing clients to pay as they go, while also providing the option to purchase the suite.
